Looking For Sunset

I spent time with this awesome family a month ago. At first the location wasn't inspiring me. We walked around to the west side of some out buildings and things looked a bit better. In the end it was the family that made it fun. They were perfect fun to hang with, so willing to do whatever I asked of them. Super fun happy family.

Baby B & Family

This shoot was indoors at my "studio" LOL! This adorable family came to get some newborn shots and family shots with their precious 5 week old daughter. Her schedule was a little messed up and we had to work on her time frame, which is quite normal. We managed to get some very nice shots, and she even slept for a bit. The sleeping angel did not tolerate much posing though. Immediately following the session my family and I tore out some very dated tile and began a week of torture with the installation of beautiful new hardwood flooring.

Karla, Brian and boys.

I spent some time with Karla, Brian and their boys on Saturday. Oh yeah, and Brian's truck, can't forget that. This family shoot is a sample of exactly what I would like future family shoots be like. Between us we had multiple ideas for locations and specific shots. They were creative and willing to go with the flow. Very casual and fun...perfect. I took yet another one of my offspring to help. He, as usual was very entertaining, (almost to the point of distraction) but an excellant assistant he is.

the Joy of knitting!

Still not getting this done daily...

Here are my latest shots, I love doing it, just not good at making the time every day.

A photo journal...

Well, I am going to give this a shot. The idea is this "one picture a day for 365 days". So far, I am behind. When I do work on it it is great fun. Here are a couple of my first images.

City Lights

Haylee and I decided to experiment downtown. We were on a mission to get some city lights in action. She actually wanted to be in some of the shots (most) which is "COMPLETELY OUT OF CHARACTER" for her. We had dinner afterward at the Wazee Super Club, our plan was to shoot some more after dinner, but it was tooooo cold. I am sure we will do it again. I love sharing this art with my kids!

Hands&Feet

Something fun between shoots. I wanted to post some shots that I love! Some of these images go back 3 or 4 years, and the subjects are still clients today. I am truely grateful for each and every person that chooses me to photograph their special occasions.
