Zachary's 8 yr old pictures

So we finally got a day where I could get Zach somewhere to take some pictures of him.  I didn't take a bunch but enough to get a few good ones to show his personality.

Ms. Caroline

A couple of Fridays ago on my day off I went and took pictures of a 7 day old named Caroline.  Her mom and dad used to work with Debbie.  When her mom was pregnant with her Debbie would tell me all about her.  She named her ladybug so Debbie and I decided that we were going to have to make her a tutu out of red and black.  So I was excited to get the chance of taking some pictures of her in it. 

Thanks C Family for letting me capture this special time in your life!

Zachary hunting photoshot

Zach looked so cute in his hunting clothes and I thought it would be the perfect time to take a few pictures of him.  Here are a few of my sweet little boy.

We had to get a funny one..

The stick is his gun that he has had for a couple of years now.. they make sure it is put away between seasons so nothing happens to it.

Happy 15th Birthday Blake!

I want to wish my Godson Blake a VERY Happy 15th Birthday!  He was born while I was in college and I was so honored to be his Godmother!  He was such a cute little baby and has become a handsome young man. 

His mother asked me a few weeks ago if I would mine doing some pictures of him for his birthday.  So we met one day after work and got a few good ones of him.  These were from that day.

Not to leave his little sister out we did get a few cute one of her..

And we did get a few of them together..

CD Cover and announcement for the Twins

Remember these pretty girls?  Well their mommy will be getting a cd with the photos and I wanted to make it special so I decided to make her a little cd cover with the pictures and infomation about the shoot.  This is what I came up with. (Click on the photos to make them bigger so you can see the detail)

This is thre inside of the tri-fold cover I left the layer for the printer on there so you could tell where the cd will go.

Here is the outside of the cover. 

The mommy has loved all of her photos so far so I think she is going to like this too. 

I also made her announcement for her..

Lighting Class

Today I went to an indoor lighting class that was being offered by Houston Camera Exchange.  It was great they had 3 rooms set up with different lightkits and models.  They also had representatives from Canon, Nikon and Sony that brought along camera bodies and lens and they let us borrow them!  It was great I got to try a couple lens that I had been wanting to try and let me just say.. they are still on my wishlist!  One of the biggest things I learn was how to use my light meter!  I was excited about that I have had it since I bought the lightkit at the beginning of the year but I didn't know how exactly to use but now I do!  I also talked to a lot of different photographers that had a wide range of experience and knowledge.  It was great to talk with them and learn from them.  I can't wait to try out everything that I learned today so if you are interested in getting some indoor photos done let me know because I need some practice!  Here are some of the photos I took today....PS...I did no editing (except for the frame around the photo)

Thanks Tim for giving me a Saturday to go and learn more about my hobby!

Twins.. aren't they sweet

Last weekend I got the opportunity to take pictures of twins!  I have known their mommy since she was just a little girl so I was excited to get to do this for her.  These twins were 5 months old but they both just got out of the hospital within the last month.  They started out life 16 weeks too early!  But as I said before they are now out of the hospital and doing well, thank goodness!   So remember the tutu's I told you we made?  Well here is where we used them! 

Then it was time for something new.. so they got all dressed up in a little dress and tights with little ballerina shoes.. how cute!

Then we decided that we needed to do a few for daddy.. he hunts and fishes and poor guy now is very outnumbered in the house.. so we decided to make the girls pretty but put something for dad..

It was great to get to meet these sweet girls and take their pictures.

Baby Sean

This past weekend was lucky enough to take 1st pictures for a sweet little boy.. he may look a little familar to you since his brother, Steven has been on here a few times.  Baby Sean was so sweet and so cute!  I was so glad to finally get to meet him and see his mommy, daddy and brother.  This is the pictures I took of him and we did do some family photos as that I hope to put on here soon.  Thanks Martha & Ronnie for letting me take these special photos for you.. I enjoyed seeing all of you!!

I can't just put all Sean photos!  I have to put a picture of big brother!
