Creative Vision

Today while I was getting ready in my bathroom I noticed this beautiful blue light coming through the glass window behind me. I immediately grabbed my camera and took a few shots. This led to me getting a little creative and taking lots of pictures around my house today. Here's what I came up with (all shot in manual mode):




Caught some smoke rising


This is looking down into a wine glass sitting on a wood table


Same glass from the side (notice my hand reflection?)


I decided to add some water and throw in a goldfish cracker. I told you I was getting crazy creative!


My first ever lens flair shot. How neat is this? Now I need to figure out how to do it without a glass reflection.


Really bright kitchen (light coming through window), aperture wide open (4.0), and shutter speed super fast. Result: lit subject with dark surroundings. I figured this out just by playing around with the settings.


And no photo-op is complete without at least one of the critters. Here's Murphy checking out what's going on out the window.

Joseph

I just had to share a shot I captured of this handsome little man. I babysat him a week ago and took a few pictures. Thanks Kara and Brandon for letting me post it! This is my favorite and I'll post a few more soon.

A few faves...

I've been going through my images to find favorites to put on my new website (not up yet but I will let you know when I'm done!) and I came across these:


Fruit at Pike's Place Market - Seattle


Crab's (yummy!) at Pike's Place Market


Banjo player outside the very first Starbuck's - Seattle

Common place

I've found that often when photographing people, I tend to cut in close on the subject. Usually I go in for the waist up. I feel like this gives a more intimate shot of the person or couple. My next project is to work on "taking it all in" rather than getting so close all the time. :) Just a few of the family from Christmas...

Grant & Samantha

Grant and Samantha were an absolute dream to work with! They were willing to do whatever I asked them to. Even taking pictures on Main Street in Wise where in an small town people inevitably stop and stare - or almost wreck their car trying to see what we were doing...haha. I had a blast taking pictures with them, and running between locations and car to warm up. Thank you both for getting in front of my camera and allowing me to capture some of my favorite shots of my career thus far!

Baby Cameron

My cousin Jessica just had a little boy and asked me if I would take some pictures of him for her. I was thrilled because I haven't seen her in a while and I had not yet met little Cameron! He is the first great-grandchild on my mother's side of the family. What a happy baby he was! I have never had a child as young as him (3 months) just stare at the camera. He was locked in on me every time I moved. It made for some beautiful photos. Jessica and Bill: congratulations on your little bundle of joy. I cannot wait to photograph him again!

Mike, Trista, & Alyssa

Mike, Trista, and Alyssa were my first photoshoot when I went home for the holidays. We had a lot of fun and I enjoyed capturing their happy family together. We were all entertained by trying to get Alyssa's attention with any toy we could find! She was such a sweet and well-behaved baby. Here are a few of my favorites for the shoot:
