S2R Rocks....

The other night I had the pleasure to shoot along side and assist my good friend and great photographer ROBIN!!
This band is called Slaves To Righteousness!!
A few months back they had a session set up with Robin and due to weather ended up in her studio...(which ROCKED I might add....see here)
With such great weather this was their chance to get outside and go down town!
I got to tag along and had loads of fun!!
It was SO nice NOT be the one in charge for a change and just shoot candid and experiment with different camera settings!! At one point Robin leaned over and asked what I was shooting....I honestly looked down at my camera and said "I'm ALL over the place and my settings are jacked right now!!" LOL I had the freedom to play with light as the sun was setting and use more of a creative eye then I normally get to on most sessions!!
I LOVE how these images turned out and hope they do too!!
To read more about their story please visit Robin's site and also to see her images of this FUN session!!
ENJOY!!

Puppy Love....

My friend Rachel called last night saying she had an idea for me!!
Her mother-in-law was in town and had brought along her dog Kai and her bran new ONE WEEK old puppies!!
I of course was super excited to capture these tiny guys. I had never captured puppies that small before and was totally up for it!!
SOOOO at 9:30pm they all came over for their big debut!!
I invited my good friend Robin to join in on the fun!!
Claire (robin's daughter that is obsessed with animals) and her friend Jacy came along too!!
Info on the puppies:
They are a Bichon Frise/Shih Tzu mix other wise known as “Teddy Bear” puppies.
They came all the way from WI which is a 6 hr drive!!
Here’s proud mama – Kai – with her babies! :-)

ENJOY!!

It's PERSONAL....

This BLOG is a bit PERSONAL to me!!!
I have posted some images below of my little girl Ryan!
(These images were taken at two separate sessions from this month!)
Because it's a personal blog I wanted to switch up my water mark just a bit!
I also wanted to play with some colors for the backgrounds!
Take NOTE of a few things: These are both two NEW locations ....both available to my clients and are super close to my home studio!!
I want to start share some personal projects I do through out the year....most of you know (but some may not) that I'm pretty creative and crafty! I make my own head pieces and have given some thought to displaying them on my blog and offering them FOR SALE!!!
(Stay tuned for more info on those!!)
If you will also notice the black and white dress in the "Red Barn" images....
this was also made by "yours truly"!
I have always been HANDS on in my sessions....from painting props to be a better suit to what I'm looking for...to even teaching myself how to knit (still working on perfecting that)...to reupholstering a wing back chair...to having a friend come and help paint backdrops!!
I see potential in many things that others may not see and I believe that is what makes my sessions more unique!
I love collaborating with clients about outfits and ideas!
I love having my clients trust my creativity...from a twin size bed in a field to a beat up chair IN the river!!
These are things I want to explore more of....
these are the things that make my heart SKIP A
BEAT!!

ENJOY
