Christmas

What an adorable girl!! Some of my favorites from our Christmas shoot.

Holly

Look at this girl!! When I first started taking pictures back in high school, she was my main model. Now she's all grown up and as cute as ever. I also took her picture in the same back yard where we used to shoot. So much fun!!!

A big thanks to her for allowing me to torture her a bit. By the end of the upside down pose I think her head was about ready to explode from the extra blood. She was so willing and so fun.

"Bust a Gut"

This picture makes me smile every time I see it. That's why I'm entering it in this weeks iheartfaces.com weekly challenge. I love the laughter and the moment captured.

Shalese and Family

Once again I had a blast taking these pictures. What a cute little family!!

So photogenic!!

Love the genuine laughter.

I love when the formal poses are over and the kids just start to play. So fun to capture those moments!

Family Within a Family

Precious little family. I love the genuine smiles!! (They are part of the bigger family shoot following this post.)

Beautiful Eyes

Here's my nieces daughter again. Look at this beautiful girl!! Those eyes melt my

heart. I can't believe she's already 5 months old.

There's those beautiful blues again and her cute little tongue sticking out.

Park Shoot

Here's my most recent park shoot with the kids.

He played hard and was uber hot. My cute rosy-cheeked friend.

I love his reflection in the slide in this one.

I was trying for the artistic lens flare in this one. It didn't really turn out how I wanted,

but I still like the picture.

This one is my favorite.

Depth of Field

Here's some oldies that I was going to post a while back. I still think they're worth sharing. I was playing with different aperture settings. I think they turned out pretty well.

I love this one. . . the leading lines. . . the dreamy ocean background. It's one of my all time favorites. . . can't say exactly why though.

More leading lines to the hairy blob thing.

Spring tulips. I already can't wait to see those again. :)

Ahhhh

Calla lily at night.

Love the texture on these.

Pretty birds exchanging a not so pretty . . . . . something.
