Learn Your Camera Workshop

A friend of mine recommend classes taught by a local, award-winning photographer, Nancy Merkling. She told me I would L-O-V-E them! And ya know, she was sooooo right. My mom had also found an ad in a mailer she received and cut it out for me an I laughed when I saw it because it was the same woman that my friend had already told me about. So, as a gift for Christmas, my mom bought me my workshop :) The BEST gift!!!!!!!!

So, we got to learn how to set our cameras to be semi-automatic, which I have been doing, but now I know wayyy more how to adjust for lighting, when to change certain things and most importantly, why! Then we got to practice in her beautiful, rustic studio all we wanted to. Here are the images from my workshop today. Both in color and black and white. Black and white speaks to me :) ENJOY! Please feel free to leave comments!!

 

Maternity Session

My husband's dear cousin asked me to design/make these wonderful baby shower invitations and favors (which I will include a post on soon!) for this beautiful mom-to-be. She had mentioned that she was interested in having some maternity pictures done and I was thrilled that she recommended me for that task :) I had a blast and honestly, she was the most laid back pregnant woman I have ever met in my life!

Please enjoy the photos as much as I enjoyed taking them! I would love for you to leave me comments!! Thanks for looking!

First Newborn Photos!

Here is my first official post!! I had the pleasure of photographing a newborn baby girl, just a couple weeks old (squeal!!) and her 2 year old brother. I had fun and enjoyed holding a newborn again...oh how cuddly babies can be! Here are some photos of the two darlings and their beautiful mom. Thanks for looking!
