My first Maternity Shoot!!

Hi all,

Well, I had my first maternity shoot yesterday and it went great. It was a hot day so that made it a little more challenging but I think I got some great shots of the mommy and daddy-to-be. I will try to post a few "sneak peeks" soon (I promise)!

Now I wish I had a studio so I could do some cute bare belly shots but the park with all the people around was not conducive to that. I think that will be my goal for this winter... by the time, the snow flies, I want to have some backdrops and a couple strobes... we will see!

Exciting news!!!

Okay, I have to share my exciting news... not necessarily photography related but I GOT FLOOR SEATS, ROW 4 FOR DAVID COPPERFIELD ON OCTOBER 30TH!!! ROW 4!!! ROW 4!!! DID YA GET THAT?? ROW 4!!!

I've seen him before at the Jubilee but I was in the nosebleeds and could hardly see anything... it was good but I always said if I ever went back I'd want to be on the same floor as the stage at least... and now I will be! YAY! I have watched his shows since I was a little kid on TV and think it's very cool. So I'm excited (if ya couldn't tell)!

Also, another exciting tidbit is that Rebecca was kind enough to share a few of her portfolio shoots with me since her baby is coming soon and I have the possibility of 4 sessions in the near future, one being a maternity shoot! I'm sooo excited and very nervous all at the same time! It's going to be for people I don't know so that makes me nervous... All the sessions so far have been for friends and family so at least if I totally screwed it up, they wouldn't be too hard on me... They are free sessions so it's not like they can be too picky but I hope I do a good job for them! Thanks again Rebecca for the referrals!!

Hope to have some new pictures for you soon!

And the winner is...


I know most people liked Scriptina and I like it but since everyone else seems to use it too and I am sooo not a follower... I picked another one that really called to me... and here it is!

(And a big thanks to Jenn for capturing my Marrah's first time on a swing, on my camera, when she wouldn't let anyone but mommy give her a little push!)

And here's a couple of my favourites from my sister's family portraits...
