Kim and Brandon

Meet Kim and Brandon :) These two are so much fun! I was so so nervous for this shoot because they are both very talented photographers, check out their blog :) I had so much fun on this shoot, Kim knew where all the good places were and she knew exactly what she wanted. All I had to do was take the picture. I didn't have to worry about posing or trying to get a little one to hold still (don't get me wrong- I LOVE the little ones:)). This was such a good opportunity to work with an experienced photographer, thanks Kim! I am so glad that you trusted me to take these pictures...

I think this one is my favorite :)

This wall was awesome...

I love the light in this one

One of my favorite spots that we found...

Holly, RJ, and Brielle

My first family shoot :) These were so much fun! It was hard to narrow down my favorites... but here they are. We found some great spots for the pictures with some fun colors. Brielle is just adorable, and I love her bright blue eyes. I learned so much from this shoot! I now have tons of ideas for my next family shoot. Thanks Holly for letting me practice! You have a cute family :)

Cute smile :)

Today I did my first family photo shoot :) I was terrified! But really, I had so much fun! It was such a perfect day for pictures and this family was awesome. I have way too many favorites and it will be hard to narrow them down for the blog. Thanks for letting me take your pictures!

Check out these blue eyes!

Baby E- 10 months

I took these randomly the other day when our friends came to play. She was so tired but we still got some smiles out of her. The sweater she is wearing was her mother's when she was a baby. She looks so pretty wearing it. I had fun editing these, what a cutie!

This one is my favorite :)

She looks so much younger in this picture, 5 or 6 months maybe...

I ♥ Faces- Fix it Friday- #36

Fridays at I ♥ Faces are so much fun, check it out by clicking on the logo above. I can't pass up a chance to edit such a cute photo! I really love this photo just how it is already, it really is a great photo. It is fun to see what I can make of it though. I really need to get out of my comfort zone with editing and try something new. I usually just use Picnik, and I like it. But there is just a lot out there that I would like to learn about editing. So here is what I did using Picnik...
