Motherhood

A photographer friend of mine and I have planned many a shoot together than just never panned out. But for her newborn baby we finally made it happen. And with these results I am glad we did! Hope you enjoy.

New Subject

I am in a rut. I have taken lots of pictures of kids (which are admittedly my favorite subject) but I think it's time to capture some different things. Maybe something will get me motivated again... What are your favorite subjects? What inspires you to get out the camera and capture a moment? I'd love to hear what inspires you...

"This mess is too big and too deep and too tall" -Dr. Suess

Here is a picture I took just minutes before they started wrestling and the little one ended up in the ER for facial lacerations. It was an accident but of course I enjoy this kind of moment more than the latter. "These moments" blog has featured it on "these moment's monday."

Summer Family Reunion

A beautiful summer afternoon and a fun family. Here's a few of my favorites from the session. Hope you enjoy.

Nature's Finest

The MCP's photo challenge on Flickr has weekly themes for photo enthusiasts to push the limits of their creativity. MCP picks their top 10 favorites per week, but other photographers enjoy looking through the weeks entries and enjoying their own favorites. This week, one of these photographer's has chosen my entry for "Nature's Finest." Here is the photo, and a link to her blog. Check it out. And if you love photography, this is a great way to come up with new ideas and share info with others. Enjoy. http://ellenburgphotography.blogspot.com/2011/07/week-27-our-favorites.html

Family Pictures

I didn't even think we got this many good ones... The mosquitos were feasting on us... The kids were in no mood for pictures... But low and behold we still got a few ;)

Costumes

The boys were really into wearing costumes this trip. Maybe I will have to look into finding more...
