{OMG}

I have been drooling over this field with the black-eyed susans for weeks and I wanted to shoot there before all of the flowers were gone. My friend JV volunteered her daughter "R" and her friend "E" for the session. Thank you girls for your time. I appreciate it!

Good thing we started early with this session! The humidity must have been 1000% in the afternoon. Twins "L" and "J" braved the weather to capture some images to mark their first birthday. They are such a joy to photograph! Of course I had to take a few minutes after the session to capture some other beauties on the grounds at Minnehaha Falls.

It was such a pleasure to spend some time with this family. You can tell just how much "J" is loved! He is such a lucky boy!

There are just some images that I am drawn to and most of them happen spur of the moment. The one of "J" reaching for the plant was such an image. In the indoor image the light was low and it is somewhat grainy. I really like the feel of it even though it is not a perfect technical picture. The grain really gives it an old feel.

"J" is just one and I am posting just one pic as a sneak peek from our session today. More to come.....

{nature...amazing}

I am just fascinated by all of the beauty in nature! While on a walk with my pups tonight after a very very rainy day I noticed the sky was beginning to brighten. By the time we got home and I went out to shoot we had beautiful blue sky! The shot of the purple flower in this series is not the greatest but I loved the color combination. I often take photos of things if I love the color and then use then later in card designs.

What a beautiful newborn and big sister "A"! Baby "E" has such perfect skin and oh the hair! I tried to capture the fluff in the front but I don't think I did it justice!
