Give Me Your Best Shot
I have a few favorite shots to share this week. I always have a hard time narrowing down pictures when I have a photo shoot. This particular shot of this bride-to-be really caught my eye. And, honestly, I wasn’t sure about this next picture when I took it. What’s with chopping heads off, anyway? I…
