My Big Boy!

I was taking some pictures for fun, and ended up getting some great shots of my little boy LOOKING RIGHT AT THE CAMERA! Yay! He's looking so big!

My Little Chef

My 17 month old son G has always loved pots and pans and spoons and cooking (or 'cookin' as he says). We recently bought a kitchen for him and he loves it. I took these photos and I really like them in black and white.

My Maternity Photos

Since I was learning photography, I wanted to take my own maternity photos when I was pregnancy with G. I used a tripod for some, and for most of my maternity photos I got the camera set up and then my husband took them.

Here are the ones I truly took myself, with the use of a tripod. I was about 37.5 weeks pregnant.

Beautiful Bride

Last summer I took a few bridal portraits for my friend B. I was really nervous as I had never taken bridal portraits* before and I know how important they are. Here are some of my favorites. (Don't you just love her dress?! Gorgeous!)




*Here is an explanation of bridal portraits as I know it, for my friends and family in the north where this tradition is not common (as far as I know anyway):

Bridal portraits are formal pictures of the bride in her wedding dress and regalia just as she will appear on her wedding day, taken days or weeks before the wedding. The portraits are often displayed at the wedding or reception, or the bride may frame the photos as a gift to her parents, husband, or grandparents.

Eating a Snack

Here are some pictures I really like, taken back in April. They are simple. Griffin was eating a snack (cheddar bunnies) and I liked the light coming in the window. So I snapped a few.
