Jennifer

I always drive home from photo shoots with a big fat smile on my face. It's true--I can't help it. I have the best job in the world--I get to hang out with awesome people in fun locations doing what I love, capturing them in all of their awesomeness. This past Saturday was no different--the big fat smile was plastered all over my face. But this time, I couldn't even contain myself--I picked up my cell phone and called my husband to share the news--"I just photographed such a great girl, in heels and a leather jacket in front of a moving train!!"

Thanks so much for being up for anything Jennifer--even risking your life on the train tracks in heels as the train was coming and posing for my experiment in front of the moving train (including perfectly posing while waiting for the right graffiti to come along!)! All the pictures turned out fantastic--here a few of my favorites with all of the session images to be up by the end of the week.

I loved Jennifer's purple Converse shoes!

Rockin' the heels...perfect!!

Brittany! Post 2

Brittany is such an awesome girl--she is just as beautiful inside as out. I've known her for several years now as she trains with JH Training, which my sister owns. She is hard working and a delight to hang around with. I can't believe she is a senior--but I'm so excited to see what is in store for her future!
All of her pictures should be online by the end of the week--keep an eye out for the next Brittany post, including a cameo appearance by her beautiful Arabian mare!


Brittany's family cat had the most adorable litter of kittens I've ever seen! Check out the colors of these little ones! There are plenty more where these came from and if you are in the market for the most adorable kittens on earth, let me know and I'll have Brittany hook you up!





Brittany's mom and I had her put on her boots with this dress because they went so well together. Plus--the boots are smokin' (and I own the exact same pair!) so we had to make sure they got seen! Brittany--if you wear these to homecoming with this dress you will be my hero!

I like CHOCOLATE & TEAL!

You might have noticed that things look a little different around here! I've decided to mix up my color scheme to better reflect myself and my imagery. I've been doing a bit of self-reflection lately and found that if I had to pick to colors to describe myself it would be chocolate with a hint of teal!




Why CHOCOLATE? Because I like to eat it.


Why TEAL? Because it brings out my eyes.




Just kidding, kind of...but seriously:




How do they relate to me, as a person? While those two things may be true--that fact of the matter is, I think they represent the simple, down to earth person that I am with a splash of color for the fun and spontaneity I love.




How do they relate to my images? I want my images to be classic. I want them to be enjoyed for years to come. However, I want them to have a smidge of the unexpected in each picture. Just enough to make them stand out from the crowd and be cherished.




So that is why I picked chocolate with a hint of teal. Enjoy the new view!
