Great Shoot With Chrissy!

What a gorgeous model I had at my disposal this weekend. Red hair, green eyes, beautiful smile ... who could ask for more? Did I mention that she is a great person too? Well, she was not only easy to photograph, but a blast to work with. Hope all my subjects/clients are this fun!

Photo teases coming...

New Creative & Fine Art Shots

These are photos that I played around with in my editing software and did some pretty amazing things. I also purchased a 50mm lens, so I can now more easily take portraits and up-close shots. I recently started to use my macro lens as well. I learn by playing, what a great hobby I have!

Heather & Kids: Photo Sneak Peek!

When photographing Heather's belly, Hope was very concerned for her baby brother.
Sometimes you just have to relax and put your feet up.

Hope was all smiles for the camera on Saturday. Sometimes she showed her mischievous side as well...see below!Heather is already a caring, loving mama...but soon she'll be mom to babe no. 4!

Pillows were Hope's fave prop!

Tiny booties to fit tiny toes soon (above).

Sometimes the best preparation is to take a minute to breathe.

Heather & Kids: Exhausting and Amazing

This past weekend I was lucky enough to photograph a very pregnant Heather and her three babes, Hope, Hannah and Christian.

They took all the energy I could muster but I enjoyed every moment of the photoshoot. Between the kids' bright blue eyes and Heather's perfectly round belly, they made my job easier.

Here's a sneak peek to their shoot.

More Derby Shots (2008,2009)

Derby is the greatest time of year in Kentucky.

Derby Girl!

So, I've looking back at some previous shots I've taken. This one was from the 134th Kentucky Derby in 2008. It was my first, but clearly, she knew what she was doing. Check that hat!

New Year, New Looks!

New promotional collages were a lot of fun to make!
