Best Face!

The I Heart Faces community has recently started sponsoring a "Best Face" challenge. Professional photographers and hobbyists share their favorite face photo taken during the month.

This face captured during my last family session was an easy favorite! Her expression is priceless. Love her determination!



(More of this little doll and her family coming soon.)

Wildflowers

I love wildflowers. While a vase of roses is lovely, I get even more excited about a bouquet of wildflowers. And give me a family in a field of wildflowers... that is this photographer's heaven on earth.

I Heart Faces is celebrating "May flowers" this week. While we are still experiencing the "April rain" around here, I hope this will brighten up the place a bit.



Visit I Heart Faces for tons of gorgeous blooms or submit your own. :)

Hello! {Fort Campbell, KY Newborn Photographer}

Things have certainly been... uh... quiet here on the photography blog. During the cold winter months when photo shoots are few and far between, I always have a "to do" list of busy work to keep me occupied. That list remains mostly untouched. :) Surgery with a one month recovery period was not on my list. (Boo!) Something I did that was on my list was take an online class specifically for natural light portraiture! (Hooray!)

I do have a sweet newborn session to share. Newborn shoots can be done in your own home using the natural light of a big window or door. At baby's home diapers and bottles are handy, surroundings are familiar and comforting, and it's easy to incorporate personal items into the photograph. In this session I photographed baby girl with a quilt her mother used as a wee one.









This perfect little bundle was 8 days new when we had our session. :)
