Lilly












Love the flower names! This is Lilly. Apparently, she has a cousin that's a few months older named Violet. Too cute! You can't
beat growing a flower garden, I say. Lilly was a great little model. She did a wonderful job of giving us all emotions!

Lindsay and Owen











You may remember a few short weeks ago, I did a maternity session with Lindsay. This is Owen and family! Lindsay and her Hubby like a certain special effect that I use in post-processing called "green". It gives the images a darker, richer feel. I like it too! Very fun and fine art-ish! We even got a good shot of one of the family hounds, always an added bonus!! In case you don't know me very well, I love animals! If you ever hire me for a session in your home and have pets, you will likely end up with some portraits of them as well. After all, they are a part of the family too!

Trip to warmth!



A few weeks ago, we went to Florida to see my family. It's always interesting when we go, because I find myself always trying to
decide if I should lug along all my camera equipment, or just settle for a point and shoot. This time I did bring almost everything, but told myself I would not obsess with taking photographs and just relax with my family. YOu photographers
out there know exactly what I'm talking about...living life, instead of always trying to capture it every minute! I did pretty good
for most of the week...just took family photos, etc. casually enjoying my time..Until my Husband and I went to the airport a little too early. We decided to go outside (to soak in all the warm air, before heading back North) and wait... That's when I spotted him! His eyes were amazing! His beak, magnificent! Ok, my Hubby is pretty cute, too! I followed this poor bird around the parking lot, until he stopped in front of the yellow taxi for a fun portrait!
