{another darling}

I had another PB shoot today. Miss "Z" is just the sweetest!

You would never know there were two toddlers running circles around us!!!

{precious baby}

What a perfect model. Sweet baby "A" was so much fun to photograph. Not one bad picture of her at all.

Thanks for the opportunity to photograph such a doll!!!

{mmmmmmm}

Every once in a while, it seems okay to splurge on overpriced, fat laden, delicious goodness in a cup.

It's kind of like cheating on your coffee maker.

Oh the excitement!

{vacuum tango}

My husband won't dance with me, so why not practice while cleaning the house.

I'm sure the dog hair and cookie crumbs are mildly entertained by my multi tasking.

{playing with the pachyderms}

Went out to play with the animals today at the zoo.

What a fun place to take pictures. The lighting, the animals and the wonder on the kids faces is truly perfect.

Took a day off from my "theme" project so we could have fun. Will resume tomorrow.

To see more pictures of our day click on my Flickr link.

{urban housewife, here we go....}

I am just going to say it....I loathe doing dishes!!!

Ever try to climb the mountain of dishes piled around the sink?

It's only when you think you're done that you find a collection of sippy cups with curdled milk, shoved under the couch, buried in the diaper bag and abandoned in the car.

{happy dance}

My new camera is here in all it's glory!!!

I cannot wait to start shooting with this baby!!!

{urban housewife it is}

Thanks to all who voted. I can't wait to get started on this project. Once my new camera arrives I will get down to business.

{is it or isn't it...}

a real painting???

I have been working on creating digital impressionistic paintings. These can be made from just about any photograph.

Using a special program, I use different paint brushes to create amazing strokes that mimic an actual artist's paintbrush.

When printed on canvas, this will be a cherished piece of art. Click on image to see detail.

{so exciting}

I am just loving the participation of you guys!!! I can't wait to see what happens after the polls close!!!

And a special "Thank You", to those who offered their precious babes for my next portfolio building project. I am truly excited about this opportunity!!!

{help me choose}

For my next photography week project, I thought I would introduce a theme. So I'm asking my readers to help me choose the theme that I will then photograph for the following week.

Themes...

1.) Urban Housewife
2.) Married love life (no it won't be what you think)
3.) All dressed up with nowhere to go

Vote for your picks >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Look who sat still for me.

{something to ponder}

100 things I've learned about photography

{the baby project}

As I am coming to the end of my week of photos, I am ready to move onto the next project.

For my next assignment, I am looking for babies.

Since I am portfolio building, I would like to expand my search for models beyond my front door. I am looking for babies up to 6 months of age.

Sessions will take 1-2 hours depending on baby. I will work within your home under studio lighting. You will receive a free 8x10 and your photos on a DVD. I am not charging any fees because essentially you are helping me.

If you or anyone you know is interested, please feel free to email me.

{day 5}

Awww, wookit that face!!!

{day quatro}

According to my kids, I only have half a face.

{day 3}

How we wear pants in our house.

{day 2}

Managed a few shots of "G" in the bath.

{challenge numero uno}

I feel the need to challenge myself. My goal for this assignment is to take a picture a day for a week and post it here. Starting today... a flower from my garden.

{here we go....}

Looks like things are coming together. I should have some photos uploaded soon. I just finished my watermark and need to go tag those puppies before I post them.

The fun begins...
