Life + Stuff

I’ve been really bored the past few days and apologize for not having anything to post. I’ve had several shoots get rescheduled this week and last. Things always get crazy at the start of the school year and people’s schedules start to shift around, which leaves me with nothing to do.:)I guess that could be a good thing, but I go stir crazy.

Pretty soon, I’ll have wrapped up editing on some of the portraits I took of the actors at Monster Mania for “Immortals”. When that’s done, I’ll have some very cool photos to share.

One thing I did want to post was a super-cute quilt that Sharon made last week. She showed it to me when she was done and I was just blown away, she did such an awesome job on it!  Sharon’s very crafty (in a good way, not in a sinister way) and I’m always impressed with the new things she makes. She sells some of her items at a craft shop in Maryland and on ebay, but I told her I wanted to show this off to my blog readers before she put it up for sale. She’s going to be making more (and she’s working on an adorable cat one right now) so if anyone’s interested, just email me and I’ll tell her.:)

Senior + Moriah

This morning Moriah and I beat the rain and had a huge amount of fun shooting her senior photos.  Moriah’s mom wanted her to have some photos taken with an umbrella because Moriah’s older sister has shots taken with an umbrella with her senior photos a few years ago.  I know a lot of seniors HATE their mom’s ideas, but Moriah had fun with it!:)

After getting some shots in and outside the studio we headed to the train tracks where Moriah rocked her prom dress.  The photos we took there were just so awesome that I couldn’t narrow it down to only post 1 or 2 on the blog so I posted a bunch of them!  Her personality just shined through and the whole shoot was amazing!

Senior + Katie

Yesterday I had another terrific senior photo shoot – this time with Katie.  Katie and her mom were so much fun to work with and talk too and the 2 hour session flew by.  They wanted lots of “nature”-type locations so I did my best to accommodate and I was really happy with how it went.:)

Senior + Laekyn

Yesterday aftern0on I had a completely awesome shoot with Laekyn.  She had selected some of her favorite locations from my past senior photoshoots this summer and we had a great time at the usual spots.  Whenever I re-use locations, I try to find a different way to use them or different angles from which to shoot, and I think I accomplished that last night.  Laekyn was simply amazing to work with – so friendly and outgoing and completely natural in front of the camera.  It was just the kind of shoot I needed to get back into the flow and get ready for the end of summer/beginning of fall senior rush.:)

Bellies + April & Bobby

Just a few hours after returning home from “vacation”, I was back at work shooting April and Bobby’s “belly” photos.  I love shooting more lifestyle themed maternity photos.  They’re so much more fun than the really traditional stuff and Bobby and April really liked that idea too.  I’ve photographed them both before and just like then, I had a great time working with them!
