Not a big post today, but as I was editing some images I came in close to work on these eyes and saw – myself! It reminded me of that ebay photo that was going around for awhile of the guy who evidently took photos of the objects he had for sale in the nude. [...]

Let this be a lesson to you. The next time your child falls over asleep from exhaustion at 7 o’clock in the evening, don’t sweetly scoop him up and carry him to his bed! Do what a really good mother would do… photo experiment!!! These are some shots I got of Ben over the holidays, [...]

Saturday was the perfect snow day. Seven inches of the softest, lightest powder. It made delicious snow ice cream! And after this picture, felt great going down the back of my jacket. Ah, family [...]

As a general rule, you should always do the sessions first, especially if dessert is included. My creative juices slow down considerably after about 2000 calories. We did [...]

We were so honored this morning to have one of our photos chosen as the best black & white on the Pioneer Woman’s blog. What? Haven’t heard of her? Where have you been?
