On a VERY cold and windy day — Chase met me out at the park for his senior session!  It was perfect timing, because his wrestling season was about to begin — but did I mention it was cold?  Chase did awesome, and had some rockin’ style for his shoot.  We discussed having him capture one of the THOUSANDS of squirrels and hold it on his shoulder for a pose, but decided not to… :)  I loved the vest, and he picked a song from the band Bloc Party (great choice).  He attends my old high school — GO FALCONS — and here is his BLOG SHOW!

When my friend Beth told me that she wanted a dramatic change for her hair — at first I thought that meant a few inches getting cut.  But then she said she wanted SHORT…so I told her she HAD to stop by here both before AND after her haircut for some pictures!  I am so glad she did — we laughed the whole time I was “posing” her with all that hair…

She went and saw Kim (also my stylist, and who did my Wedding Hair as well), and I was sitting on pins and needles for Beth to return.  Well she did, and WOW!!  I LOVE IT!  If you are looking for someone who can do some great hair, look no further than KIM (ksmith5872 ‘at’ gmail ‘dot’ com)!

Last Sunday I met Jeremie and Andrew at the park for their engagement session — and it was just one of those perfect days.  The weather was comfy, the sun was giving a super-golden glow, and these two laughed their way through the whole process!  They even had a friend bring their dog Monkey for a couple of shots…too bad the little coat didn’t fit her because it was adorable!  Well, Andrew didn’t really think so…but thanks to BOTH of you for a great session and your patience while I was out of town.  Enjoy your Blog Show set to the Weepies — I had to pick the Weepies because I am a huge fan!

***I am out of town, but put together some blog posts to appear while I am gone!***

While I am still playing with this lens — which is manual-focus by the way — I thought that I would test myself on a difficult subject…cue Mosby the dog.  He doesn’t really like to sit still, which was a good challenge for me to keep up on the focus-ring!  And yes, he has on a doggie-danna (bandanna for dogs)…I couldn’t help myself!  Enjoy a few shots of him!

I love when my clients are so open to crawling through the woods a bit — that is what led to this image, one of my favorite from their session, and definitely a top-contender of all-time.  Their full-feature, coming soon!
