I swear I am not trying to give anybody baby fever. It’s just that this week’s I Heart Faces theme is All About Babies and I had to share this maternity picture. I thought it might be a fun twist on the standard baby shot. If you’d like to see how beautiful this gorgeous couple’s…
Babies
Remember that beautiful pregnant mama I took pictures of a few months back? Guess what I got to do last week? Recognize those wedding rings? You’ve seen them before. I love babies. Newborns are admittedly hard to photograph, especially when they decide that they don’t want to fall asleep or sit still. But they are…
I Heart Faces Photowalk Across America {DC Edition}
It was hot. Oppressively hot. Hot and sticky wet to the point of utter distraction. And yet, we strapped our cameras around our necks and the rest of our equipment around our backs, slipped on our walking shoes, and walked. And walked. And took a few pictures. Ok, we took a lot of pictures. We…
Hard at Play
While I’m hard at work editing a back-load of pictures from recent photo shoots AND this past weekend’s I Heart Faces photowalk in DC, I will leave you with a simple picture. One of my favorite shots of my youngest daughter, Reese, and my oldest niece, Chick. These girls know how to play. If you…
Second Cousins or First Cousins Once Removed? GMYBS
Apparently, I’ve had it wrong for years. First cousins I understood. Totally clear. My first cousins are the children of my aunts and uncles. Got it. But what about the children of my Great Aunt and Uncle, or the children of my cousins? So confusing. Guess what? I found a handy chart detailing the cousin…
Give me Your Best Shot!
Earlier this week, we “broke in” the summer camp’s new swimming pool. Granted, the dogs who live at the ranch have been playing in the water since the pools were completed, but our kids were the first humans. Let’s just say that they had a good time, despite the cold water. Now, the kids are…
I Heart Faces – Yellow!
It’s yellow week at I Heart Faces, and this picture (which is the opening screen on my itouch) was the one that came to my mind. On a warm Spring day, Reese was playing in the backyard with water, and although I thought it was totally gross, I had to catch a picture of her…
Fix-It Fun
I needed a break from the routine, so I decided to play with this week’s fix-it picture on I Heart Faces. Here’s the original: For this first edit, I used the B&W Red Filter (high contrast) preset, added color noise reduction, luminance smoothing, boosted the clarity, added some highlight recovery, and then cropped. For the…

I Heart Faces {and Flowers}
It’s been a long and tiring but wonderful weekend. As tough as weddings are to photograph, they are also rejuvinating to me (now, don’t ask me how I feel about 2000+ pictures to process!). Here’s a sneak peek at the lovely bride. And since she was holding her flowers, I figured it was destiny. I…
