It was so cool to receive an email from the company I use (Asuka Book) to produce my coffee table books asking if they could feature one of my Engagement shoots as a “Book of the Week” on there Face book Fan page!
Here is the link! Just click on the book cover!

I met Jason and Shannon a while back and shot their wedding reception at Hauser Hall in November 2008. It was such a pleasure to be called on again to shoot their little one Miss. E. So alert and connected and then so sleepy and peaceful! A perfect shoot!
So sweet in such a little package! Boy did i have fun shooting her. Thanks so much guys for trusting me and my new ideas. I’m so in love with the stork shot! I owe you a print!
Thanks Shannon for also catching the behind the scene shot of us capturing your beautiful little one.

Thanks to Hilz for the use of all her knitted goodies!



My absolute fav baby shot ever!!

you hold, I’ll bouce to get her to sleep…. lol

You know us photogs get really caught up in who’s got what equipment and how did they shoot this and what did that person use to shoot that? It really seeps out during our slow seasons when we have nothing better to do than dream of our busy season and what new shiny piece of equipment we will get next. And don’t get me wrong i am guilty of it too. ( I love my prime lenses) But shoots like this make me feel and remember, that really…. what it’s all about, is how an IMAGE makes you feel and where it takes you, no matter how you captured it. It’s always the emotion of those captured that defines the image in the end, not the technical info behind it!
Hol it was an absolute pleasure to shoot you and your little ones on our frosty -15 day.

Here are a few ways to show off your goods!

So before i explain this shoot I have to share with you all that i know i have been a little lax in keeping up my blog this past year… sigh.
It was simply a matter of shooting…. ALOT!
I’ve always been an A type personality and thought it was necessary to blog in order of the jobs shot. Unfortunately this thinking is getting me no where! Sooo for the New Year I’m just going to blog whatever and not worry about it! I plan on going back to August and sharing all my jobs with you from this past summer and fall …. they just won’t be in order!
So here we go….
What an amazing day i had shooting for the heck of it last friday!
keeping up the creativity during the cold winter months.
Krista a fellow photog friend of mine invited me over to play. There were 6 photogs and 6 models.
What a blast!
Here are some favs
