Last night, as I was cutting a slice of cheesecake for dessert, Reese asked me “Mom, what is CHEESEcake made out of, anyway? There’s not really CHEESE in it, is there?” My poor daughter has never had the courage to try a slice of cheesecake. I suppose that’s fine with me. If all 5 of…
I Heart Faces – Dramatic Black and White
I almost forgot to enter a photo in this week’s I Heart Faces photo challenge. Which would have been a shame, considering the fact that maternity shots I took last weekend are perfect in black and white. Here’s one that I thought fit the “dramatic” theme: I am loving black and white more and more.
Focusing on Angles
I love using creative angles to capture portraits. Off-center, tilted, and from different perspectives. Particularly, I think kids look adorable when looking up at the camera. Here’s a photo I caught a little while ago of a precious little girl who did not want to sit still. Standing above her caught her attention just enough…

I Heart {Kissing} Faces
In celebration of the upcoming Valentine’s Day holiday, I heart faces is having a Kissing theme this week. As soon as I saw this week’s topic, I thought of a certain picture, and I was so determined to find that particular picture that I spent about 45 minutes trying to find it on my computer….
I Heart Faces – Texture
I’ve got to admit (and this won’t come as a surprise to those of you who know me): I rarely if ever use texture in my edited photos. Textures kinda scare me. I love looking at photos that have had texture added to them, but I rarely add them myself. So I almost didn’t add…
We Are Family
This is not my family. This is my good friend’s family. This is my good friend who, 8 years ago, encouraged me to pursue photography. Eight years ago, this family was the very first family that I did a photo shoot for. They’ve grown a lot in the last 8 years, and I am happy…
Happy Birthday, i heart faces!
It’s birthday week at i heart faces’! One year ago a fantastic website was born. I heart faces meant so much to me as I was branching out and trying to become a better photographer. There’s nothing quite like encouragement to build confidence, and examples from other talented individuals to build a store of ideas…
Christmas Photo Outtakes
Capturing a decent family picture is a tricky business. It’s hard enough when you’re working with a photographer. But add the additional element of tripod and timer and it’s an adventure, to say the least. I was looking through last year’s Christmas-season pictures in preparation for I Heart Faces‘ Hilarious Outtakes theme this week. I…
