I love me some babies!

I will say the most challenging thing I have ever done still is take pictures of newborns. You would think that it would not be that hard but it is. I will say I love this hat and have used it on everyone I know. I also bought this new fuzzy blanket and love it! I love etsy!!! I did not think that I would love these pictures as much as I do but this little girl just made such wonderful pictures!

This week has been a very challenging one! A lot of ups and downs in my life and I hope to start off next week with a brand new attitude. Life throws some weird things at you and it really defines your character as to how you are going to handle them.

Just FYI my very funny friend Adam has volunteered after some coaxing to help me design a web site. I am very excited about that! It will just be a new avenue for me and I am always interested to see where new things lead me.

I will have to say that in the last couple of months I have taken some awesome people's pictures. I just wanted to give an example of some of my favorites!

Where does the time go!

All of sudden fall is here and I don't know where the summer went! My kids are in school and I really do enjoy spending the time with Jaden. He starts school next week and I think he is definitely ready! The weeks have definitely been busy and we have been blessed to have wonderful people come and stay for visits. We would enjoy anyone else who like to come also.

So I had my first shot in the dark this week. I have never tried to do creative things with newborns and it did not go quite as planned. I actually dyed the baby's skin orange. (don't even ask) I am actually nervous to give the mom the shots!

Boy this was a beautiful baby! I hope that I get to keep practicing my skills with these cute little ones. I have so much still to learn!

I just recently took to the park to take these pictures of this adorable little girl. I think her parents were nervous at first at how she would sit and look pretty. Instead I let her run around and try to grab as many as I could. The parents were really great and I think that we all had a good time. Here is a little sneak peek for the parents. I was so excited about these that I took a few moments to process some really quickly.

I hope everyone has a great labor day !

So much fun!

So I am having so much creative fun with the pictures I am taking lately. Found a place that restored old cars and they were everywhere. I love the cars with Seniors. This is just a little sneak peak at Zach's shots

Since I got kicked out of my favorite place I was a little worried. I also had never taken an older boys photos before so it took me a little while to get the hang of it. I don't know if I ever did but I gave it a good effort!

I cannot believe school starts next week. I am ready for some type of schedule but I sure will miss having the kids running around. Jaden will be gone three days a week and it just makes me sad. The other day he asked Carson "Do you find me attractive." I mean who could do without all the witty things he says all day!

ooh I love a newborn!

So the first time ever to shoot a newbie. Just around two hours old. I did have to sit and just hold her for a while but I really loved every minute! I cannot wait to take more pictures of this little one!

These are the times I love being a photographer! Thank you guys so much for letting me be a part of your day!

So I am finally rested up from a week of camp and I am off for new adventures this week. I am trying to keep my blog updated a little more so we will see if I can keep it up. I am not the best blogger in the world but I love being able to show all the wonderful and inspirational people that I meet through photography!

Got caught trespassing!!!

So my life is not that exciting but this week while taking pictures I was kicked out of my favorite spot to take pictures! I have not been this bummed about something in a long time. It was my favorite, beautiful texture, beautiful light and just my favorite. I am going to have to find a new place and it will not be easy! So these are some of my last shots in this place unless I love it so much that I am willing to risk jail.

This family is so cute and I wish I could have gotten about a billion more! Thanks guys for letting me take your pictures. Here is just a little sample of what I have gotten so far

!

So I am off to camp with the girls for the rest of the week. Very excited! It is Carly's first year! She packed about a week ago if that gives you any idea of her excitement! And for those of you dropping by and not leaving a comment and you know who you are. Where is the love?
