Black and White Diva Session

I had my first photo session and although it was a dreadful muggy Kentucky day, and my model was a diva I am completely happy with the images captured. My niece and sister were my models and our location was on a secluded trail near the lake. Its overgrown with weeds, canopy trees, and catacomb ed ponds. A perfect backdrop for outdoor photos.

What I realized after this day was that I definitely need some muscle or some type of wagon to transport all my junk into the woods. Especially, if I use my antique high chair as a prop. I did several edits for each of the photos but black and white is simply my favorite.

For a little girl who is usually all smiles, I couldn't get even a tiny smirk in the beginning.

Not even a chocolate doughnut would bring out a smile.

Oh, but her mamas iPhone did the trick!

Later on she was in better spirits and we sat her in the high chair in only her diaper, and little diva was no more. 

 

These last few shots are some of my favorites and show her true personality. A goofy little girl with a big grin! Cannot wait to do this all again as soon as soon as I find some more tiny ones!
 

Summer Resolutions

Summer is approaching and I'm being bombarded with ads telling me its bikini season. Well like every other summer I'm not ready to flaunt myself, so leave me alone skinny girls in your itty bitty bikinis! I will however
try to will  get there. I've made some summer resolutions that I WILL accomplish this summer.  For instance I told myself that I cannot buy new summer clothes until I shed a few winter pounds. Now this is a win, win situation, considering I corporate and do what I'm told. Getting myself to work out is the problem. I absolutely hate it, but I must trick my mind into thinking I love it. I'm doing this, I have to. I mean I'm publishing this on the internet its legit right?

 Get some color

Other summer resolutions include getting some color. Some healthy color, not oompaloompa orange color. I usually don't tan and haven't been to the tanning salon in years (which I don't miss).  This summer though I want a little tan, whether that comes from the sun or a bottle. I haven't decided yet.

Have an adventure!

I want to experience something new. Have a feeling I have never had before-something adventurous, like zip lining. Yeah, I know real exciting stuff for this girl but I've never done it before. I don't even know if I'm scared of height! I live a sheltered life haha.

Do more shoots

Recently started getting into my photography again. I love it, and am going to make room for it permanently in my life. I have some shoots lined up, but I'm going to take this time this summer to really get this dream, possibly even a business off the ground. 

This is the beginning and hopefully more will be added. Stay tuned.
