Not a girl, not yet a woman

I had the amazing opportunity to photograph Marissa Pasillas celebrating her Quinceanera. Congratulations Marissa, you were absolutely beautiful! Thanks for letting me document some of the fun.

For the love of family

The beautiful model below is my cousin Melinda. She ran around in the cold with me Saturday to get more practice on portraits.

"How do you want me to stand?"
'I don't know'
"Where should I look?"
'I don't know'
"Where should I put my hands?"
'I don't know' ...

Clearly, I was unprepared!



I <3 this bridge


For fun :)

I love the fall

I decided Annabelle would be extra cute in a fall-type setting. We needed to utilize the warm weather today :)

Pumpkin Patch

Let the bodies hit the floor ....

I'm just going to put it out there — I am no good at live action shots :)

My little model

My daughter Annabelle played model while pro-photog Kate Bentley showed me some pointers Saturday morning. The first two are my faves from a mom view and the last two are my artsy faves. Of course every picture that includes my daughter is wonderful to me!

Not much action

So, I attempted to take pictures of my nephew's flag football game last Saturday. I have decided to revisit the action shot once I have a better lens :)
