Braving the Cold

Love this family! It was a short photo shoot because of how cold it was, but definitely sweet. Looking forward to attending this beautiful couples wedding in May.

The Christmas Tree

The Christmas tree
The Evergreen
All full of lights
And golden streams

And when I look
Upon that tree
The gift that Gods
Son gave to me.

The Christmas Tree
Is like our Lord.
Is strong like Him
And unexplored.

But still that tree
Is dear to me
For cause of Him
I am set free.

The bright lights
Are like his Love.
No one has it,
But from above.

Our Lord had died
To set us free.
Thats what I get
From the Christmas tree.

Celebrating the Birth of a Savior

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the LORD Almighty will accomplish this. (Isaiah 9:6-7)

 

I know this picture does not fit in with the rest of my post, but I love it anyway and wanted to share. The man behind the beard is Wes, a Down syndrome man who lives with my husband’s parents.  He got his hat and beard at a Christmas party yesterday and hasn’t taken it off since. Every few minutes we hear a “ho, ho, ho” coming from his corner of the room.

Homade Studio Set-Up

Made a homemade studio out of a kids soccer net that I can move close to windows and take with me where I need it.  I also make it smaller or a little larger. My friend’s son tested it out for me.

I love TED Talks- David Griffin about Photography

Photoshoot Idea Collages

I got this idea from http://www.justinmarantz.com/ who put together design boards for their clients.  The design board is made with the client in mind and is to help them know what to wear and bring to their photoshoot.

I got inspired to put some idea collages together myself.  Consider them springboard collages that clients can pick and pull from when deciding what props and clothes will help capture themselves in their photos.

Family Collage 1: Thought of my friends when putting this together.  They love to lounge around with their boys reading books, playing games, doing puzzles, and just enjoying being a great family together!

Family Collage 2: Inspired by my niece who loves to play pretend and is a modern day princess!

Painting!

Pulled out the paints today for some colorful fun! Couldn’t help not taking some photos.
