The Petersons

Holy frozen! It was around 4 degrees when we took these pictures at 8:30 in the morning but you wouldn't know it because this family is awesome! I was so impressed with little Miss K because she would totally smile on demand. Not very many kids her age can produce a real smile in 4 degree weather. This family was so easy to work with and they were up for anything (even the Mister!). I hope you enjoy all the pictures and as always, feel free to give me some constructive criticism!

3 boys

 These three sweet boys are neighbors of mine. A couple of weeks ago we did a little mini shoot so their mom could have some pictures of her boys in the beautiful fall leaves. The littlest guy didn't have the best time but he was still a trooper!

MACRO

It's a shame that I had to take a step back so soon after just getting this photography thing going. If you're looking for an excuse, here it is! Because of that, I have no new shoots to share. I know, bummer! But here's a few pictures that I took over the summer with my grandpa's Nikon micro 55mm. I shoot with a Canon but you can buy adapters so you can use Nikon lenses on a Canon body. Shooting macro is really addicting! It's really fun to see what kind of world opens up when you get really close! Enjoy these SOOC images!

It took me awhile to realize that you can get super close. Even more than what I did! If you look super close at this picture you can see that the flower has bright, almost fluorescent, specks.

 A big bumble bee was flying around and I was trying really hard not to freak out because I was getting a little too close for comfort!

Found this little guy's home

I love this super wide aperture!!!

 

And this one is obviously not SOOC. I just felt like playing around with some textures. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Stafford Family

 

I had a lot of fun on this shoot! So much so that I filled my whole 8 GB memory card and when I went to put the edited images on to a cd, there were too many! I had to delete some off and it was really hard to choose!

Sorry it's taken me forever to get these up, Kapri! The cd is in the mail!

This is Jeff, my brother, at his finest..
