Photo Exchange

We had a little photographer's exchange yesterday.  The lighting was dreamy, and the girls were just too much fun!  We all learned just how intimidating it can be to be in front of the camera.  I think we all decided we prefer to be behind the camera!  I am in love with the blue metal structure and red barn that we (aka Raquel) found for us to shoot at.  In fact, I love it so much that ALL my edits are in color thus far!  Enjoy these ladies! 

Summer Mentoring for Me!

This summer, I will be spending a full day with 3 AMAZING photographers, learning more about lighting, posing, working with clients, etc.  PLUS, I get to learn about their photo processing techniques and workflow!  I can't even tell you how excited I am!  Anna Jones is heading this up (she just moved to Arkasas!), check out her blog...you'll drool over her yummy, colorful images!  www.blog.indieannajones.com.  So, hopefully I'll learn a think or two and have even more to offer my fantastic clients!  Wahoo!

Color, Color, Color!

Look at these cute toes and the beautiful color behind them!  This image would look soooo cool on canvas!  

For my friend Emily...

Here are a few more of my friend's precious little baby girl.  Enjoy the previews, Em!  Thanks for having me do these for you!  I'll be sending you a link to your proofs in the next little while!

A Classic Image...

I am having WAY too much fun processing the newborn sessions that I did about a week ago.  Here's another favorite!  This black and white action is called Hot Fudge... I love the contrast that it gives to the photo, bringing out this baby's delicate features.  More to come...

Food Photography...

Just a few photo samples of my new project.  Shot at slightly different angles. Mmmm... makes me hungry!

I am LOVING this image!

When I first sat down to view all the "raw" images from this photo session, I came across this photo and it blew me away!  I love the way that this mom and baby have such a look of comfort and ease.... you can just feel the love in this photo!  

Introducing "Princess Peach"

Good morning everyone!  I had the wonderful opportunity of doing not only one, but TWO newborn sessions last weekend!  Both shoots were of beautiful baby girls!  Stay tuned, because I will be posting more from both sessions.

And now, meet little miss "C" who is proudly nick-named "Princess Peach" because of her beautiful complexion.  I'm loving this shot.  The colors, the fluffy tu-tu and the adorable, chubby face that is to die for!

A sneak preview...

Oh how I love babies!!!  Here's a quick peek at this adorable little girl's photo session.  More to come!  I can't decide if I like the sepia or color one best... any opinions?
