Ok… photographers reading this, prepare yourselves… So, I arrive very excited for the shoot. I’ve shot this wonderful family before, and they’re always super fun! I’m halfway through the shoot, all is going well, kids are adorable as usual.. and then it happens. My battery dies. Yeah, AND, I had accidentaly left my spare at a previous shoot. Now, I’m about 45 min away from home, and a minimum of 25 min from any camera store… exactly, insert panic here! I’m able to fire about 3 more shots, and that’s about it. At a loss for what else to do, I begin shooting with the family’s hand held point and shoot. I suppose I am now, more than ever, a firm believer in “The Best Camera Is The One With You” (or in my case, the one with a battery hehehe). I challenge you to figure out which ones were shot with my “professional” camera, and which were shot with a point and shoot. Enjoy your sneak peek!!

{love} it warms my heart
November 20, 2009Ok, so for those of you who’ve been following my pictures for a while, you may recognize one of the gentlmen in the pictures below. He is, and I quote, “the first and best model I’ll ever have”! hehehe! To be completely honest, I wouldn’t be doing what I do now if it wasn’t for him. He took a chance, and saw in me something I never would have seen in myself. Daniel, I can never thank you enough. Now about our shoot today… one word, FUN! Our shoots together have always been different, adventurous, new, and experimental… and this time was no different. Except… we had a new addition, Jordan! I’m not sure the poor guy knew what he was getting himself into. But, with true open arms, he took it all in stride. Jordan is a PERFECT fit for Daniel. I love your love. Enjoy your sneak peek boys! <3



{reality} Lest We Forget
November 12, 2009“They went with songs to the battle, they were young.
Straight of limb, true of eyes, steady and aglow.
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted,
They fell with their faces to the foe.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.”
