Business Shoots

This week I had a couple fun little professional shoots; a journalist and a businessman. Both of these lovely people wanted photos for their websites and business portfolios. It was a very quick process and super cool to try something new.  I really enjoyed it.

 

SD {senior}

This shoot started a little scary, with the rain threatening to come down at any moment. Then my senior, a ray of sunshine, showed up and the rain stayed away. She was gorgeous and so incredibly sweet. I enjoyed every minute of my shoot with her and, as I snapped the last photo, it started raining...and pouring. I am pretty sure the old man was snoring! Enjoy :)

3 Ways to Beautiful {seniors}

Spring is in the air and I had the most amazing outdoor shoot with three of the most beautiful girls yesterday. Oh my goodness, they made my job so easy! It was exciting to watch these three young ladies have so much fun together and be able to capture their beauty, inside and out. This first photo is like a window to who these girls are. I feel like each photo captures the girls' personalities so well. Fun, sassy and sweet (you pick which is which)...all with the same fedora!

Ok, here is one more shot of each of these beautiful girls, and man, it was so hard to choose which ones to post. If you want to see more of this fun spring shoot follow this link to my

Africa Joy

Africa...WOW! This trip was one of the most amazing moments in my life. I feel like this picture captures the time for us there perfectly. We went there to try and help these awesome kids in whatever ways we could and, hopefully, bring some joy into their life. It was incredible to find out that, in reality, they brought us so much more joy than I could have ever imagined. These kids have next to nothing, yet the joy and love they have in their hearts overflows. I will be forever changed!

Sports Portraits - Bethany Soccer

Doing sports portraits is crazy, fast paced & fun. I am almost always wiped out after my little 45 minute shoots. It may lack the use of some creative juices but I am still capturing a moment in these kids lives. What a awesome moment it is too, being on that varsity team can feel like you are on top of the world.

I took the sports photos for Bethany Academy (portrait & action) this year and enjoyed every second of it. The kids at this school are amazing, full of life and have incredible faith. They made it a very easy job!

Narnia

Narnia? That is what my husband says this photo reminds him of. For me, the snow flakes were just so huge and they shined so beautifully in the light...I just couldn't help myself. I guess it does look like it could be Narnia.

Charlotte's Web - Bethany Academy

Recently I had the opportunity to take formal scene photos of Bethany Academy's production of Charlotte's Web. This was such a great group of kids to work with and they did an amazing job. It was such a fun experience and I would love to do more of this type of work, thanks guys!

Now this next photo shows what I mean by "capturing a moment."
I love this shot that was taken during the actual performance.

Top Shot?

He got this BB gun for Christmas and

he ran to start shooting cans as soon as he opened it.
All I could think of was from the movie, A Christmas Story,
"You'll shoot your eye out!"

LC {senior}

Senior shoot I did last fall.

She is such a beautiful girl!

Bring the Rain

This was a last minute photo. It was pouring out...
