Upload overload!!!!

Went over to Caroline's house a few weeks ago and have been meaning to upload these. The setting was great, the lighting was great, and Caroline and I just had a lot of fun!!! I normally hate seeing myself in pictures, but to be honest, I really liked how some of them came out, and that's why they're on here :P Anyways, as usual, enjoy!

And she said that she wasn't photogenic ;) The photogenic quality runs in the family apparently, since this is Kiki's mom. Haha. Hope you like these!

Lisa Lynn Ramos

May I introduce Lisa Ramos, the author of Invincible Anita, an award winning children's novel. She had asked me to take her author portraits (which I did), but I couldn't resist taking artsy shots as well. We had a great time with her sister and niece tagging along, they helped and took a shot with the camera and did quite well. Thank you ladies for making it such a fun, exciting photo shoot!! Hope you like these!!

And... I saved the best for last! Taken by Kaila :) My favorite out of all of them!

Inspiration!

I know that I've been doing a horrible job at uploading this blog. School is just so unbelievably busy and this winter/fall weather isn't all that conducive to good photography results due to the lack of color... anyways, thought I would share my list of photographers that I draw my inspiration from, and could only hope to be as good:

-denisebovee.net
-leigh-taylor.com/blog
-celebr8lifephotography.com/blog

Their use of sunlight is only short of magical!

Anyway, hope you guys enjoy their work as much as I do.

Girls Day Out

I have very talented friends, that's all I gotta say. Omy asked me to take a picture of her, "a" as in just one. I told her that that was crazily impossible. And Caroline came down for service and to do the photo shoot with me... we had the BEST time EVER!! Turns out we all took turns taking pictures. So much creativity and talent made for a great photo shoot. Hope you like these!
