Here is one from the same session. It is hard to find a picture I can't use of her. Somehow I have to try and weed some out. Boy! It is hard.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN 3!!

the best I can do with sports!
Senior
This young man worships with us. His mom is a beautician. So, I traded haircuts and getting my hair chemically straightened for shooting some pictures of him. He had already had studio portraits done at school and they bought some of those, so I took him to the park and did some there. This one is simply desaturated to the point that you can barely see the blue in his jeans.
I STINK at posing!!! I hope his mom doesn't see the pics and notice they are all the same poses in different locations! I did vary the angles, positions, and distances - but that is about it.

I know I posted one for today but I figured I would post this one because it really just took my breath away when I sat down to edit the images from my maternity session this morning. I just have to share it! Also I have been lax in posting so maybe this will make up for it...(Fingers crossed..lol)

Very cute couple that I photographed yesterday. We wondered around downtown portland to get their different pictures done. It was sooo beautiful yesterday and all I could think of was how I wished it was more of a cloudy/overcast day because the sun was in full swing. lol

its finally fall here
Too bad it's not my kid...
... but here's what I've been working on. This has been my first experience with Jr. college football and these are some big (and fast) guys. A good friend of ours asked me to TRY to get some shots of their nephew (#88) at the last game and I got lucky :)

More Kacey
Okay, I'm slowly chipping away at getting Kacey's senior images done. The girl wants them taken EVERYWHERE. Anyway, this was done with garage light - hey, everyone else is doing it....bridge, jump...
Yes, this is her true personality. Never met such a priss. Don't ask me where it came from because I am so NOT prissy.

Elements 6-BW
I was able to shoot a highschool football game today. They let me walk the sidelines and get some great shots. This one I used the function in Elements 6 "convert to BW" and added just a bit more contrast. I'm thinking I'm going to like this conversion. I did purchase Nichole Van's Essential BW, but I'm having a time getting it to work. I'm going to have to see if I can find the PDF instructions! (can you imagine - reading instructions?)
what day is it???
Pumpkin head

I think they all need a contrast boost and I may redo them tomorrow night. What do you all think? She doesn't know they exist yet.

Little Nic
I babysat today for a friend. This is her youngest son. I took him and his brother to the park and tried to get some shots - but boys are WILD. This is the ONLY calm moment I got. The sun was too harsh for the shots on the playground and any time I tried to get a "near pose" HA, give up on that idea! Anyway, his mom loved this one.
