Let me Moon you ...

From the time I was a child I have always had a fascination with the moon. It is always so beautiful and mesmerizing. When someone mentions anything spectacular happening like tonight's Super Moon ... I get excited! So hours before nightfall I was getting camera equipment together and thought I cannot tell a huge difference in tonight's moon than any other one - I will take NASA's word for it that it is the closest to Earth than it has ever been in 18+ years! When I first went out to shoot the moon - there was a horrible haze lingering - but as the night grew later the sky cleared and I was able to pick up a great shot! Get out an enjoy the moon more often - it is a beautiful subject!

Back in the Wedding business ...

Well I say that - but let me clairify - BACK IN THE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY BUSINESS , BUT - WITH a partner.
I said I was giving up weddings, Then Erica Love says "Come help me with a few and see if we can work like rockstars as a team the way we do on other sessions" and I have to say - YES we do. I helped with a wedding yesterday at the Holiday Inn and it was a blast! We had a wonderful wedding party, family to work with and the most fun reception that I had attended in awhile! There was a DJ, dancing and the food was awesome too, oh and that Groom's cake ... Chocolate/Peanut Butter slice of HEAVEN! WOW! But it looks like Captured Moments Photography and Love Story Photography are in the business of "Capturing Love" at weddings ... so more details to come in the NEAR future! Thanks Erica for making me LOVE weddings again!

Vixens TAKE 2

So my friend Erica Love of Love Story Photography and I decided the Valentine Vixen photo shoot was such a success that we would do another. This was Boudoir sessions take 2 ... we had the best time this past weekend with some really fun, ladies who came out of their shells. These are some of the MOST FUN sessions we ever take part in, we said that if we could do a weekend a month we would DO IT! We laughed til our bellies hurt. So the sessions began on Saturday night with 4 girlfriends, we liked to refer to them as the "Desperate Housewives" ... they were a hoot. No shame - No shame ... these girls were fabulous. We used eyelash adhesive in places it probably was NEVER meant for, but it worked and sometimes you just have to improvise! LOL! We had one more girl show up before we called it a night. Then the next morning we had 3 ladies , one of which was one of the cutest pregnant ladies I'd seen, she totally ROCKED the camera, as did all of the other girls. It was a great time and we totally look forward to the next one! Thanks to all you girls that were AWESOME! We had a blast!

A little Princess

Today I had the pleasure of shooting one of the most precious baby girls that I have ever laid eyes on. I don't have girls and let me tell you one thing ... IF I DID - I would surely go broke buying cute accessories for her to wear! Meet Sienna - she is a doll baby, I did her mom's maternity pics about 6 weeks ago and Amanda was never so happy to see the day come that she got to enter the world. I can tell this is going to be one spoiled little diva - she has a big brother that she loves to cuddle with and a little doggie that watches over her like a hawk! It was so fun for me to get to play dress up with a little girl for a change! Welcome to the world Miss Sienna.
