Senior Pictures-Olivia

Olivia Senior Pictures Preview

Here's a preview of the lovely Olivia's senior pictures. Stay tuned for pictures from the full photo shoot in a few weeks :)

Those Pictures I forgot I had taken

Do you ever plug your camera into your computer and find that you actually have 200 pictures to upload instead of the 30 that you thought you had? Oops! Well I just found a bunch of great shots from May... as in two months ago.

So here's some raw lovlies from a while back. They're 100% unedited but I don't even feel the need to edit them!

Baby Iain and Sister Kelley

As much as I love photographing older people, I love the challenge of capturing little ones. I think these two are too cute but I'll let you decide that for yourself!

I cannot get enough of those gummy smiles!

The mama of these two has the most gorgeous smile. Did I mention she's my cousin?!?! *dramatic hair flip*

Love love love these guys!

Winter: Rachel

Rachel is my sister and therefore my most convenient model so basically 99% of my pictures are of her.
Sometimes I can get a nice picture of my sister and I. Today happened to finally be one of those days:

And now for some unedited moments...
Sometimes I ask my sister to take pictures of me... Sometimes (most of the time) it doesn't go so well...

The dog is not our most cooperative model.

And neither is my sister apparently...

Winter Pictures: Olivia

Here is the gorgeous Olivia and a few snaps from our photo session last week.

Laughing pictures are always necessary!

I just had to put my self timer on and jump in front of the camera with her!

Ok I just had to share this one here because my dog is just TOO funny! She took her raw hide chew outside and insisted on posing with it!

And a final hair picture to end this post....

Have a nice day y'all!

A Photoshoot with a Friend

My number one client is my sister. She bribes me to take pictures of her and edit them if you haven't already been able to tell by the great deal of pictures of her that I've shared. Anyways, today she had a friend over and begged for the usual photo shoot. The temperatures are in the high 30s here so of course I agreed (super warm I know!)

This first one is my favorite and describes the two of them perfectly. They're always giggling about who knows what!

I made my sister step out of the frame so I could get some pictures of someone other than her for once!

"Wild Life" Photography Adventures

Being a wild life photographer sounds interesting... until you're face to face with a lion and then that's when it becomes just plain scary. I've had my fair share of wild life encounters that I've photographed... I use the term wild life very loosely but here's some of my favorites...

 

 

I feel taking pictures of animals is almost like taking pictures of really young children (no one be offended please!). They can't sit still and they don't understand a lot of the posing commands outside of "sit"

Boys will be Boys

As much as I think it's nice to have pictures of children behaving and being perfectly posed, I think it's great to have pictures of them just being themselves and having fun.

Ok so we did get one perfectly posed photo! Good thing I was able to snap it in the 3 millaseconds that this lasted for!
