Winter Engagements

How exciting, to be planning a wedding at this time of year! I am honored to be chosen by Melissa, who also does photography, for her wedding photos! I can't wait to work with you guys more - Melissa, what a natural poser! There are 400 pictures I can't choose between... here's what I came up with. Enjoy!

MUST. POST. PHOTOS.

This is one of those days every photographer dreams about - PERFECT lighting, perfect setting, cooperative weather, and happy kids. It was freezing cold outside but you'd never guess it with the smart planning of this family! We tromped around in this field for almost an hour but loved every second. Layers, people!

I also re-learned the lesson I mentioned here that the best way to get happy kid (or boy) pictures is to say "Let's go exploring!"
This first picture is my very favorite sofar. More to come, I'm nowhere near finished, but have spent my 3 hours tonight already.

a Freezing cold 20 minutes

You'd never guess by these darling pictures that it was in the 20's with freezing wind and blowing snow! Proof that winter shoots CAN happen.
This shoot is probably in my top 3 for the most productive 20 minutes EVER. Amazing pictures guys!

Sabbath Sneak Peek

Okay, so I'm totally breaking my no-photoshopping-on-Sunday rule but I'm dying to get to my three shoots from this weekend. In an effort to satisfy your curiosity, my own excitement, and still try to keep this day holy, I give you the first cute photo I found from each shoot. More to come, but not on Sunday!

Family Pictures + One Year Old!

Well, we may not have gotten 'kiddie kandids' shots of this darling girl but I am happy with the cute ones we got! Aren't they a beautiful family?

Headshots + One Year + Christmas Card Photo...

Such a darling girl and her parents! Thank you, mini-shoot, for our attempt to get mandatory work headshots (you are gorgeous Kim!), one year-old celebratory shots, and that one "perfect" Christmas photo. I'm sure we accomplished at least 2/3 successfully :) I'm such a sucker for the artistic shots - so yet again, I went over my photo quota. Oh well, I love that last one in particular.
