Kaleb ~ 3 months old!

Here is the amazingly super cute Kaleb again! I've really enjoyed doing his photos every month, it's a great way to watch him grow and I know his parents appreciate it!
This time I got to play with some new equipment I purchased. I got amazing new lens for my Canon. It's the 50mm f/1.4 prime lens and it is superb!
So, here are some of my favorite photos from today's shoot.  His older brother and sister make more appearances, of course!

I ♥ Faces ~ Hilarious Outtakes

Another fun entry to the I Heart Faces weekly challenge.  This week is all about those funny moments that you unintentionally captured! 
Luckily, we can enter up to 5 pictures this week.  Here are 4 of my favorites.

This first one is of my best friend and her little girl.  They were goofing around and I managed to get this great shot.  It's like she's trying to say, "cut it out mom"...but laughing at the same time!



This next one includes the same little girl, but also has both her big and little brothers.  Their mom and I wanted a shot of them both kissing their little brother's head.  Well, she's in the phase where her kisses are open mouthed...but it just looks like she's trying to chew on her baby brother!!!


This next one isn't the greatest shot, but it tells a lot.  It's not in focus, but that's a big part of why the shot is so much fun.  These two boys live next door to me and I did a shoot with them this past fall.  Their parents wanted a shot of the boys with their dog Abby...well Abby is a puggle and doe NOT sit still.  Here she is evading the photo and nearly running me over in the process!

Snow time fun!

I was sitting on my couch and was hit (almost literally) in the face with the sunshine that blessed us today!  I knew I had to get outside and play with my camera.  The sun was GORGEOUS today.  And, to add to my fun, the neighbor kids were out playing with their sleds!
Here are some fun shots!

I ♥ Faces ~ Hands On Challenge


I found this great weekly photography challenge website.  I anticipate that I'll be entering often.
The challenge for this week is titled "Hands On Fun".  It only took me a moment to think of this photo!

This was taken on February 6th, 2010 at the wedding of a friend of mine.  This was during their first dance as husband and wife and the way he held her was so beautiful...as you can see in this photo.

Valentine's Day surprise!

My husband happens to be one of the most selfless and thoughtful guys!  I was in the middle of a really tough stretch at work and it happened to be Valentine's day and I was again...stuck at work.  Part way through the day, my charge nurse called me to the front desk because there was something she wanted to "discuss" with me.  I get to the front and there was a volunteer with a box of flowers for me.  I opened them to find a GORGEOUS bouquet of 2 dozen "passion" roses.  Not your typical red roses, they were peach, pink, yellow and white and absolutely stunning. 

The next day, the really opened up and I took advantage to get some shots of them.  Here are the beautiful flowers that my husband got me...not because he wanted to get me flowers...but because he knew that sending me flowers at work would be something I'd love.  He liked knowing that I'd get attention from my co-workers for it!  Tee-hee...he's so cute!

Jayson ~ 2 weeks old!

Today I had the pleasure of catching up with an old friend, snuggling with her newborn and getting some wonderful photos.  Dayna and I went to nursing school together, so it's safe to say we've been through a lot together!  Her and her husband, Jeremy, were married last April and have already welcomed a new member to their family.  Little Jayson was born on January 28th and he is absolutely delightful. 

Here are some of my favorite shots from our time together today.
