Twins!

Out in our country twins don't happen very often (because there aren't a ton of people). So I was lucky to get to photograph Taylor and Hannah last week. These two girls, now at two months old, are beautiful. I can't wait to watch them grow up.

Betty & Jim

I met Betty and Jim last April at the Cortez Home and Garden Show. They are a wonderful couple whose company I truly enjoy. They have now been married 48 years!
And on a side note, Betty is teaching me to knit. More on knitting in future posts.

Gabriel - Three Years Old

Gabriel turns three this month! I can't wait. This morning we did his yearly portraits. I was having fun today "grunging-it-up".

Tessa 3 & 4

Here are the final to portraits Tessa's parents selected. What a sweet little girl!

Tessa 2

I love profiles of little ones. Their noses are always so cute and they look like the are intently looking at something important. I think Tessa looks very different from this portrait to the last. All children have many different sides to them. It is a photographer's job to try to capture those different sides to help parents remember all the little details of their sweet one.

Tessa

I'm looking to take my children's photography in a different direction. As you can see in this beautiful portrait of Tessa, there is a strong emphasis on expressive eyes and a shallow depth of field. I want my images to pop of the computer or off the page and hope that they are extremely recognizable. Over the rest of this week, I'll have additional images of Tessa all with this new style.

Season 3 of the Office

Just picked up season 3 of the Office today. I actually bought it for Chris for his birthday later this month, but I think he'll get it a little early. This is probably the best season yet. Lots of great laughs.
Tomorrow, I'll have some beautiful portraits of Tessa. Got to get to work retouching.
