The Secret Workshop

I realized I’ve never posted about the fabulous workshop I attended a couple weeks ago. I can’t say enough about the ladies that put this on, Cheryl Muhr and Jodie Otte. They were so willing to share not only photography tips but what they’ve learned running their successful businesses. I was SO inspired on the plane ride home. I have all these ideas about new things to offer my clients, new places to do photoshoots, etc. I’ve had to start a notebook with my ideas so I don’t forget them all! I keep it next to my bed and more than once I’ve awoken in the middle of the night to jot something down.

One of the things I’ve been working on lately is a new website! I’m so excited to share it with you all once it’s just right. Designing is a lot of fun but also very time consuming. I’ll be sure to announce when the official launching day is!

In the meantime here’s some photos I took at the workshop. We were so lucky to get to work with such talented, adorable models! Not only did we have great kids to work with but the surroundings were incredible. The windows in the studio and the urban surroundings outside were wonderful to work with. I’m on the lookout for a place like this close to where I live now!

6 months already!

This beautiful little girl was born back when it was icy and cold in January. Now it’s hot and humid and just like the weather’s changed she has too!
What a difference between these two family photos. One thing has remained the same . . . the love her parents have for her.

This last shot is a little different for me. I’ve had a wide angle lens for a couple months now and really only used it on landscapes or interior real estate shots. Well, I finally used it for another purpose! After we were done with the session Mom and Dad were getting baby “K” ready for her nap. As I stood in the doorway I just had to capture the entire moment. The beautiful nursery with the sun shining in, two parents lovin’ on their little one, and “Max” laying on the floor waiting for his turn to get some attention. This photo, in my opinion, is the definition of family!
