For the love of light!

I love to shoot at this location. The light is always wonderful. I'm so eager for the grass and trees to come to life but the light covers a multitude of sins.

 Ok mom, enough!^^^^

I love finding cute outfits on Etsy. This little jean jumper is adorable. Would look so cute layered with a tailored jacket as well. Possibilities are endless.

FALL

Fall is coming...

BORED HOUSE WIFE

Watch the water! Doing the dishes is never fun. Try wearing some pearls and bright red lipstick!!! haha

Look close!!!!

I'm so excited about this image. It's not bad considering this is my first one to make. I wanted the image to have a 50's vibe. This was taken in an old home of ours and the vintage setting is too perfect. I applied a cross processed tone to complete the feel of this. This is a still picture with isolated parts moving. While still photos are my passion, I do want to get my feet wet with video. I'm putting together a video of my family and hope to share it soon! Be blessed! My beautiful model was such a sport. Love her outfit (all her own), and I think she plays this part so well. Gorgeous girl....

Life 365

I started a new project on January 1 and decided it would be a 365 day project. I have so far posted 34 pictures on facebook and surprisingly am on track. I will update my blog soon so that you can see my progress. I'm calling it Life365. Instead of worrying about posting beautiful portraits I've decided to just post everyday life. I don't want the project to seem overly staged and for me to get beat down trying to keep it up. This is just simply life.

DAY 1

The kids playing "nicely" together. As a mom, how could I not take this? My sweet kids, Olivia 6 and Harrison 5!

Very Pinteresting...

For a crafty person like me, Pinterest is so much fun. It never ceases to amaze me how simple little projects can sometimes be my favorite. This one is so easy. Paint the inside of a mason jar with your choice of acrylic paint. Voila! Easy.

Around the globe {DFW Children's Photographer}

Who would have thought of broken globe would look cute in pictures? Olivia did.....

Summer!

Summertime fun! It's hard to believe summer is over half way over. It sure goes quick. These images were the result of boredom. I got some fun pictures out of the kids and they, of course, got CANDY. Go figure.

I never grow tired of this lens.

Ocean eyes [DFW Children's photographer]

I love this kids eyes. They remind me of the ocean. There is a turquoise hue to them that is just fantastic to photograph! What a looker he is!

writing 101

I used to journal everyday. I journaled all thru my pregnancies, cancer & travels. Now I look back and see the last entry date was nearly 2 and a half years ago. Shameful...

Project 3/52

Whoa, I'm really behind. Not a surprise but also not too hard to catch up. I was feeling a little discouraged today, decided to call my mom and she gave me a nice gentle kick in the bum (she's one of the only humans on earth I allow to do this). I decided to carry my camera around all day and see what there was to capture. The theme for week 3 is WHITE SPACE or negative space. This refers to the negative space surrounding your subject. I do not take a lot of nature pictures because people are usually my favorite subjects. However, sometimes I forget how beautiful and delicate God's work is. I absolutely love dandelions even though they are weeds and since Spring has sprung early I was able to capture these beautiful blooms growing at the park today. Thank you God for your beauty.
