I can't believe how busy I've been lately. But, I was told I needed to get some more pics up, so here a few rather recent ones. I haven't spent a lot of time with my camera latley - too busy. I think I have a few more coming soon though.
Well, I finally took the photos of my friends family on Saturday. I was really hoping it would be nice enough to do them outside but it was raining. Anyway, check them out HERE.
A shot from Mom & Dad's visit. Much too short as usual, but so good to spend time together. They are loved. We are planning to bring them to the airport tomorrow, though I know saying goodbye again will not be easy. And there will be some kids crying in the coming nights.
First off - yes, I'm trying to post more. So if you have given up checking the blog you'll be surprised. You just never know if I'll post something new everyday, or make you wait a few weeks ;) Keeps it fun. So, I was making the kids be my models the past few days, as I've been intent on practicing my focusing techniques. And it NEVER looks like the kids are having fun in pictures. Next time I will bribe them with candy!!! Does anyone feel like providing me with some different models? Like, say, this weekend at Tony & Alanna's?
We visited the pumpkin patch last week. Joshua got a wasp sting right before we took these pictures. He came up to me and told me something was biting him, shook out his shirt and out dropped one wasp minus a stinger. I wasn't able to get the stinger out, so I asked Joshua if he wanted to go home. He really wanted to stay, so we just continued on with our visit. I checked on it a few minutes later and it was slightly swollen. By the time we got home, it was a little red, but not swollen at all. And he hasn't complained about it since. One more thing - these kids were laughing their heads off only moments before they had to sit on the pumpkins to get their pictures. (Ok except Josh, he had been half crying) Anyway the minute I pull out my camera, they get out their 1902 portrait faces - you know those old pictures where the subjects have to look solemn!
