Welcome to the blog.
My wife rocks!
Nate and Lauren have been good friends of ours for years. So it was a pleasure to hang out with them on a beautiful spring day, and take a few pictures of them and their kids. Their oldest child would sit and let me take pictures for a couple minutes then needed a break to literally frolic in the trees and grass. It was a lot of fun, and thanks again for asking me to take your picture.
Wow, what a great weekend. No stress, we just spent the entire weekend with our kids, which included: The Dinosaur Museum, The Aquarium, two Easter egg hunts, and frequent visits to the park to enjoy the warm spring weather. To top it all off I took a picture of my wife that she actually liked. I have had a few people ask why she isn’t plastered all over this blog, because she is so beautiful, the only answer I could give was, “She’s her worst critic.” This time she said, “Wow, I look hot”.
My little Sweet Pea can finally sit up on her own. I’ve been excited for this day to come so that I could practice some new ideas on her. I decided to take advantage of this, by setting up a back drop while my wife dressed my little girl in pearls. Sadly setting up the back drop and getting her dressed took too long and she was ready to go to bed. We were able to get a bunch of cute pics but it was a bit harder to get her to smile.
Here a couple pictures I took last month. Its amazing how much I have learned since then. Rian is a total girl, with her sass and love for posing. I can’t wait to borrow her again to try out some new backgrounds and maybe a few shots outside when it gets warm again.
Here is another bunch of pictures from the Julie Parker workshop. let me know what you think. Be sure to comment.
I just want to say thanks again to Alan and Jen for letting me practice on their gorgeous new baby girl. It was my first time taking photos of a newborn and I learned a lot. Thanks again for the cookies, they were gone that day.
These girls were such troopers. The promise of hot chocolate at the end of the shoot was all it took to get them through the bitter cold and wind.
My wife is so creative and thoughtful. Every year for every holiday she thinks of something to give to me that puts my efforts to shame. This year she asked to borrow my camera, and came up with this awesome collage that she framed and gave to me. I love it and think its a great Idea for Mothers Day, Fathers Day, Birthdays and so forth. If anyone wants to give it a try let me know.
