The boys









It's always fun taking pictures of kids, you never know what will happen! I always enjoy trying to trick them into smiling. My philosophy is that if you take about a million shots, you will probably end up with at least one or two good ones! (This is with kids, I tend to be a bit more perfectionistic with other shots). So after much trial and error, a busy little guy that won't sit still, running into trees, and having a tough time getting a smile out of a ten year old, there was some success.

Taking votes!



This year I am entering the state fair photography contest again. I'm having a tough debate between these two pictures and I want your votes! I have the other categories chosen, I just need to pick between these two and decide which one I will enter in the nature category. Thanks!!

A proposition

Anyone up for getting into their wedding clothes and getting a second batch of wedding photos? (Good luck getting your husbands to do it). If you didn't like your wedding photography, or you just want to wear that dress one more time, I would love to do a mock wedding shoot. Here's the deal, I'll shoot it for free and give you a copy of the digital negatives (cd) if you would sign a model release so that I can sell them on istock and also use them for my portfolio. If anyone is up for it please let me know. I can't wait! And hey, if you can't get your husband to come, I'd love to do some bridals as well. For more info on istock, check out www.istockphoto.com. Thanks!

An urban shoot









My good friends Sarah and Gregory humored me the other day by letting me test out some urban shots. It's awesome taking pictures of couples who are already married! I'd like to do it more often...anyone interested?
