I have been given the opportunity to work with the awesome crew over at King Duce Records on September 11th. They are shooting a music video/concert/party out on Lake Oroville, and have invited me to come along and shoot some behind the scenes happenings!
When Chris Rockwell (founder of King Duce) approached me a while back about working with them, I jumped at the chance to branch out in my photography and do something different than I have done before! I am really excited about it, and can’t wait to be able to show you some of what I capture! So stay tuned for what I hope will be some sweet images from this totally awesome event!!
And because no post is complete without a picture;
check out this sweet shot of my awesome hubby rockin’ the drums with Oroville’s own “8 Track Attack”…

I met up with Kelly, today! We decided that we each needed new head shots done. So, we grabbed our cameras and headed out! We got some great shots of each other! (if you head over to her blog, you’ll be able to see the ones she captured of me)
Without further ado…meet Kelly of KS Designs and Photography!

Or should I say my daughter’s best friend?! I have blogged about “Piggy” before, but this post is special. He is almost 5 years old, and if he’s to make it safely to the keepsake box, he will need to retire soon. So, we took “Piggy” outside for a little photoshoot, and for my daughter’s 5th birthday in August, I am going to have a canvas made for her bedroom, so that he’ll always be around!
This is the shot I chose to use…

Here is another shot from my family session last night! She is so very shy. She’d smile and play it up for me for a bit, but as soon as the shutter clicked she was looking away or head down or she stopped smiling. I happened to catch this moment while she was picking a wildflower! After she heard my shutter click, then she actually turned and smiled for me, but I love how this shot came out!

About a month after Austin & Alyssa’s wedding, we decided to get together again. We had a lot of shots that we were unable to get due to power outages and time constraints and of course the sun going down. They we more than happy to oblige! So, here is a small sample of what we were able to re-capture!

She will be 5 in August, and starting kindergarten!! Seriously, where does the time go? She was looking so cute today in one of her dress-up dresses, with her hair down and wavy from last night’s braid, and the light was just perfect! So, out came the camera, of course!

I just started a Flickr group with some friends (anyone is welcome to join), and the idea is to gain more knowledge, creativity, and possibly even some constructive criticism. The first week’s assignment is ‘up close’. So here is my first image for this week…

In honor of Valentine’s Day, the theme of this week’s challenge over at “i heart faces” is kisses! I think this is one of my favorite “kisses” photos!

So, I was just going through my memory cards and backing them up, I came across 2 pictures from Austin & Alyssa’s engagement session that I loved but somehow forgot to edit!? Has that ever happened to anyone else? Forgetting to edit a couple of your faves from a session? Anyway, without further ado…the 2 that I forgot!

This is my first time entering a picture in a contest on the *i heart faces* blog. I love textures, so I thought I’d give it a shot. I’d love feedback, so let me know what you think!
