Last spring, as I was driving one of my little ones to preschool, I discovered a tree off the side of the road with these huge white blossoms. They were so gorgeous and different from the other trees in bloom, that I bribed my oldest to give me a photo shoot. I got one of my most favorite pictures that I have ever taken. This one-
Four months ago, I took newborn pictures of sweet Baby T. (My husband always wanted one of our babies to have rolls like this!) Her Mom had done her homework and was prepared with some adorable ideas. We had fun trying them out. Two weeks ago, we had some more fun taking family pictures (see next post).
I have a list at least a mile long of pictures that I want to take... and this is one of them. I wanted to take this picture for many reasons. First, because I wanted to challenge myself to take a good "baby in crib" picture. Second, because this is my last baby, so if I wanted the baby to be mine I had better hurry up. Third, because I live in a "cave" with walls the actual color of mud, so after refusing to take many pictures inside my home for the last two years, I have finally challenged myself to find and use any good natural light I can. And last, because this kid is a mover and it was refreshing to take a picture of him when he was absolutely still!
Last summer I had the opportunity to shoot my first wedding. I was nervous! It is a lot of responsibility, but it also turned out to be a ton of fun. I loved the bride and groom's color scheme and overall style. What a great day!
