Play date with Addison


56 minutes, 251 shutter presses, 27 different uncomfortable positions on the floor = 1 portfolio quality environmental portrait! Thanks Addison

This morning I made a house call to visit Baby Addison, or Addi as her mother so affectionately calls her. I needed an environmental portrait for my final portfolio and I thought a baby in a nursery would be perfect. This is my second time photographing "Addi" and she was great the first time and even better this go round. She has an adorable nursery with lots of window light.

Clowning Around

Today the studio was like a circus-Literally! I had the pleasure of photographing "Flash" the clown. I wanted to try something a little different, so I went with a low key portrait for my colorful friend. Thanks Phil for making the drive. Continue making people smile.

Sunday

The Great Escape

I traveled to Alabama by car 2 weekends ago(which I have yet to blog about) and had a fabulous time seeing friends and family and taking great photographs. But it wasn't much of a vacation. Between the drive and all the shooting when I got there, there was not a whole lot of time to sit and relax. Time to sit and look at the body of work I've created and really decide what I like. So I decided to see if I could have some of that time this weekend in Cape Cod. This is my first visit to the Cape and its going to be a very short visit. I am trying to get interior photographs for my portfolio. The resort I'm at is very nice. I am going to do a little exploring this afternoon. Great pics to come!

Thursday

My High Key Reshoot

My FINAL portfolio is due in just over 2 weeks. I have images for all but 1 of my assignments, but I am still shooting everyday up until the very end! I am loving my work more and more everyday! I want to say thanks to Sheena for volunteering her time and wardrobe to help me pull this one off. You were great Sheena.

Wednesday

Briar & Addison

This morning the studio was bubbling with baby girls. 4 1/2 month old Addison & 5 month old Briar graced us with their presence. They were two of the sweetest babies I've ever worked with in the studio. Very easy going and at the stage where they aren't yet sitting up and will basically stay in one spot if placed on their bellies!

Tuesday

The W's

O.k.- I've taken a little break from blogging, but I'm returning strong. I traveled quite a bit over the last couple of weeks and I've settled back into my home and routine. Today I paid a visit to the home of the first family of the huge 4 generation family shoot I did a few weeks ago. I was amazed to learn that this very sweet couple has lived in the same house for 55 years! I enjoyed their company and hope that their children are pleased with the outcome of the photos. The one with the two of them waving from the porch was done especially for their daughter in California who says this is how her parents see the children and grandchildren off when they are leaving.

Thursday

The long break!

I've been away for a while-traveling and shooting. Will return in a day or so with LOTS of new images!
