warm up!



Stopped at work before my Indian Wedding on Saturday. I helped in the studio with the chicks and bunny photos. I took 71 shots of this little girl in her Easter outfit. Before I left for the wedding Ryan wanted some cool shadowy shots before he shaved off his beard. Tessa wanted a picture of her and a chick before they went to the farm.
The wedding was beautiful. I don't have the numbers yet, but I kept snapping away. I didn't want to miss anything, because I never shot an Indian wedding before and I didn't want anyone to know I never shot an Indian wedding before.
I'm falling behind here I still don't have a total number from Florida...yeah yeah I know..never mind I have to hear about it from my mother!

Ali oop


Ali oop came into the studio for a head shot. She is getting her first media credentials for the NFL draft and she wanted me to take her photo. She is so cute and becoming a successful young lady. But she still has those little girl hands! I don't tell her enough that I am so proud of her! I also took 2 photos of a baby in the studio because Jenna was on the phone!!!

Sydney Elizabeth and big brother Brody



Sydney had her first photo shoot at her house. I just want to thank Colleen and Jason for letting me abuse their new born. Of coarse she was fussy and wide awake the entire shoot. I was able to get a few shots. I was trying different things, like natural light, black and white, baby poses etc. She only peed once!! Also took pics of her big brother Brody who is the still the cutest little thing! Jumping around like a mad man. It was a fun learning experience.

took 118 (liked about 5)

Passport Photos


Jenna and Ryan 2 of my crazy co workers! I wouldn't care about my job as much as I do without them! They are a lot of fun, and both talented photographers.
I took 25 passport photos in January and February. I almost forgot to count them, but they are photos and I am using a camera so add them to the tally! Right?
I also took 446 photos at the Cobb School Opera. The kids were so cute in there costumes, many of them customers of ours and the refer to me as the crazy photo lady. Nice!
Had a sitting in studio of Olivia for her 9 year birthday photo. It is just fun hour when you have a single child and she is so happy to have her photo taken. How can you go wrong! (took 97)

headshots!

Just did a business shot today. I took 45 images. What is it about men and the "football neck" I swear they are taught this at birth! The football neck is where they stick there Adams apple out which forces their necks to expand and get shorter! Not a good look boys-stop it!

Welcome Sydney!


Lots to report today.
My computer went down last week so I was without for a couple of days, I was lost. It was like I didn't know what to do with myself. Luckily none of my files were lost and now I'm back in business.
First of all I revisited the THS boys swim team to retake the team photo. This time I left plenty of time for the camera to adjust to the warm pool area. (77). Also ran into an old friend Ethan while at the pool.
Sydney Elizabeth Beckett was born. She and mom are great! It was nice to visit my friends at the hospital for such a happy occasion unlike the end of last year when Joseph (Sydney's uncle) was in a bad car accident and we didn't know if he would make it or not.
Yesterday I shot a senior boy for SHS and I took 231 images which is a lot but I haven't shot a senior session in a while and he was a little difficult. His smile had 3 stages from fake, half smile then he hits it and then its gone.
My last entry is about my husband and his two brothers. They came in to the studio to take a photo for their mom's birthday. It had to be done, My mother in law has an photo of them over her fire place that was taken around 1979! (82).
