Maternity Portraits Sneak Peak

Last weekend I had the honor and privilege of photographing this beautiful mother-to-be. We were able to get the daddy-to-be in several images as well.

I hope mommy-to-be is able to enjoy this sneak peak before her baby arrives. I want to wish her all the very best. I can't wait to photograph the new baby with mommy and daddy.

Any Camera to Capture the Moment

I don't always have one of my Nikon SLR cameras with me. Sometimes I have my Canon Point-and-Shoot. Other times, the only camera I have with me is my cell phone. That's probably not good to tell the world--I don't carry my camera around everywhere I go. I have two young children and that's just life. Sometimes I want a day off.

Although, it seems to be those times, that I don't have my SLR with me, that I see something I want to capture.

Here are two of those times. I took these two images with my cell phone.

Just goes to show, it's not the expensive equipment that takes a good photograph. It's the talent and training of the artist taking the photograph.

Happy Halloween

I absolutely love Halloween. I love everything about it; going to the pumpkin patch, decorating the front porch, costumes, school parades and parties, handing out candy, going trick-or-treating, and carving pumpkins.

I hope you capture some wonderful Halloween memories.

Finger-Painting Fun!

I am lucky enough to be able to volunteer in both my daughters classrooms. Last week was finger-painting day in my daughters Kindergarten class.

All the kids had so much fun. I just had to share this image I was able to sneak in, of my daughter, between helping kids with their paintings.

Charlotte

Charlotte lives at my parents house. Right outside the kitchen window at the front porch. What a beauty.

My girls and I went to see her today. I had to show her off to you. My parents have been watching her grow for a month or so now. Charlotte is about 1 inch long from the tip of her back legs to the tip of her front legs. I have no idea what type of spider she is. From what I can see on the web, Charlotte is a common garden spider. I've never seen one so big. My parents must have better bugs than I do.

Charlotte disappears for a little while then returns with a nice lunch in her web. I found out where she goes. In the Camellia bush right below her web. She's got a prime spot. No wonder she's so big.

California Poppy

My husband and I take a walk one morning a week while our daughters are in school. I look forward to that walk all week.

On our walk we see squirrels, turkeys, lizards, and birds. There is the occasional bicyclist and jogger.

Today, there was a single lone California Poppy. Glowing in the sun. It was beautiful.
