A year in Black & White

I am part of a group of photographers challenged to post a year of black and white photos. In just a handful of days it has made me realize just how much a group of photos gives insight into the individual behind the camera, what we find important, in the grand scheme or just the small detail.
I just posted this one today. My nephew was over, I had picked him up from camp where he is a volunteer counselor. He was upstairs playing a board game with my 5 year old. Not a big deal to most (even though he is 17, and I think that is pretty awesome of him) but this board game has history. Over 2 decades ago his own father and I played it, our fingers on the same dice, game pieces, fake cash, and cards.
Such a simple thing that holds so many memories.

Suspenders and a Tie

Forgot to post this one. T asked for this outfit, begged for it. He absolutely can rock it!

Dandelion wishes

My cousin gave me these lockets awhile back. They came with a negative style photo in them, which with the advent of digital photos, acquiring negatives of favorite photos isn't readily available. So, I've sat on them for quite awhile, trying to figure what to do with them. 
Then this idea came about! 
A dandelion signifies strength (think how hard it is to get those little buggers out of your yard), change, and wishes coming true.
I'm going to look around for more of this type of open lockets, Teacher Appreciation Week is coming up!

Excitement!

Had a quick shoot for these guys for their Save The Date magnets. I'm one of the lucky ones whose announcement did not get lost in the mail, and is already on my fridge! Can't wait to share their special day with them!

A New Year Already!

The holidays got away from me, and I am now just getting to sharing our card photo, and then a quick shot I took to forever memorialize the mess created on Christmas.
Can't wait to share a sample from a quick session I did before the holidays began to roll, just waiting a few more days until the guests of the happy couple get their mail!

Couples

I can't stress enough that as parents we need couples photos too! We focus so much on making sure we capture our childrens' special moments and changes that we neglect our own as a couple!

These kids definitely share some good genes!

Still Pretty in Pink - after school!

Lacey is still "rockin" her pink after school!
*The last three collages are uniform in design since they are siblings and when hanging/displaying they can easily be grouped together, even if not directly around one another.

When school is done - #1

Was the excitement to get pictures taken, or the school day was done?

After the school bus leaves - Alex

He may be shy in front of the camera, but don't let this little extrovert fool you!

August fun!

Photo Ops can happen anywhere, anytime. This was outside of pretty cool mini-golf in Madeira Beach. They even had their own gaots you could feed!
