Growing up!

I just wanted to share one...he's growing so quickly!

Springtime!

I missed the cherry blossoms, and my early bloomers are already wilting, but my tulips and trees are growing!! I love this time of year.

Family

It was so much fun to do my first family...and harder than I thought. I learned a lot!! Thanks you guys, you were great!

Shoes

Okay, nothing too big to share today, but I do love taking pictures of people's shoes and feet...I'm not really sure why, but when the challenge today on ILP was "shoes" I got all excited. Here's what I came up with. I love it! Tee hee hee!

Beauty

I went out with my cousin and her two kids today for some VERY quick practice. We had about 20 minutes before my fingers just froze (not to mention the poor little kiddos!--they were such great sports). I wanted to share my favorites from the mini session.

Lucky Me!

I must be so lucky-I got to go hang out with some amazing photographers on Friday and take some pictures of our kids in Salt Lake. I am in absolute admiration of their talents. Here are some of the pictures I snapped that day.

eta: the top one in BW is my fav.

Practice, Practice, Practice

You know, I know I need to practice a lot more than I do. Right now I'd love to figure out how to nail that focus. I took my camera off of the default focus settings, and I've been trying to pick my focal points for the last couple of weeks, and I am really frustrated with my results. I did this so I could get a better in-camera crop, but I think I need to close down my aperature (although I love shooting really open) so that I can learn to get that nitty-gritty, perfect detail, and then move on from there. Anyway, I thought I'd share a couple of my practice shots...still not perfect.

Easter

Isn't this little angel the perfect little redhead?? You should see her eyelashes...up to her eyebrows and curling under (and they are red too....)

Growing Up

My little baby is growing up faster than ever, it seems. She turned 9 months just a bit ago, and I wanted to capture her at the age...I only had a few minutes, and they are nothing spectacular, but I love them because they are my little girl!

Family Reunion

Just wanted to share a few more from our family reunion.
