Marisela's Maternity Shots!

A whole new world! Is all I could think of when doing this shoot!  And a whole new FUN & BEAUTIFUL world it was.  I really enjoyed this shoot, and I absolutely loved every emotion going in and out of it!  There is just something about pregnancy that is an unspoken beauty.  I have to thank my good friend CIERRA for letting me come barge into her home to snap a few shots!  And for her help technically on some things!  It was a great experience and opportunity for me! 

Check out some of her stuff here!

Sneak Peak! Dangerfield Family!

My good friend Rachel asked if I would snap a few photos for her family while everyone was in town.  I love things like this, so of course I said YES!  I think we caught a few great candids, as well as some great family shots! 

 Thanks for the opportunity Dangerfield Family!

First Indoor Kids Photo Shoot! PHEW!

My first indoor shoot!  This was an awesome challenge!  My best friend asked if I would take some pictures of her kiddos for her, and I was hesitant to take them outdoors(even though that is my fav!) so I thought, what a great opportunity to practice indoor shots.  I thank both Melissa and her hubby Clint for being so patient with me, and being so helpful!  I think we got some keepers!

Part 1: Day Family

What beautiful family to photograph today!  And all things considering, I think we pulled out some really great shots!  We had to cut things short with the kids, but that is TOTALLY ok, runny noses, and sacrificing health, is NOT worth it when it comes to taking photos, better a happy healthy kid, than a sad sick one!  And so, I was really trying to hurry and snap whatever I could.  Unfortunately, some of my technique seemed to falter as I was trying to hurry so these poor kids didn't have to be out in the cold long.  And I realized at one point, I accidentally knocked my switch into a different mode...but got it shortly back into Manual as soon as I realized.  So, that is why this is Part 1.  I would love to do another shoot with these guys, on a better day, but here sample of what we got today!
