Photos: David and Jacob

How boring life would be without these two boys in my life. My youngest nephew, Jacob turned a year old yesterday. To allow my sister to get ready for his party, David spent a night at our house. I somehow tricked him in to coming outside with me to do some photos. He decided he would give me a variety of expressions to choose from…which I loved.

David: 3 years old

Jacob: 1 year old

I can’t wait until Jacob learns to talk. I’m so curious to see what he will say. I can tell he is going to be the one observing everything. During his party he needed a nap but instead wanted to stay up to watch everyone.

Photos: Her name is Daisy

There is something heavenly about little girls. The grace and beauty they carry with them in the mist of a crazy world, reminds me of all that is good. If you look in their eyes you can see hope.
I work with Daisy’s family at church. The first time I saw her I knew that one day I would use her for a shoot. There was something graceful about her.
When she stands in sunlight she looks like an angel. Each photo reminds me of God’s beauty.

Photos: My vintage baby

I found these cute vintage baby clothes at “Hobo’s” in Redlands. I felt a little funny buying them but couldn’t resist. I knew Jacob wouldn’t mind being my model.

Post #4: Children Photography

The first thing I noticed was Zack’s awesome shirt. I love the colorful stripes. It’s amazing how the time of day will change the mood of a set of photographs. I love how the sun was setting during Zack’s photo shoot. His eyes really stood out and his blonde hair glowed. It wasn’t easy chasing a twenty month old child but these photos made it look like he stood steal for me. And that’s all that matters.

September is mine

August was a busy month for me. To be honest, my creativity and inspiration was consumed by so many different projects, none of them being my own. This was good but then it wasn’t. Though I was completing projects for others, I myself could no longer afford me.

Until now. Since I worked all of August, I financially can hire myself.

There are a different few projects I am working on this month.

The first one, I was inspired to jump in to children photography. I was out shopping with my sister in Baby Gap and was taken by the photos on the walls. The kids were just so darn cute! I told my sister, “I would love to do children photography, that would be awesome.” I then remembered some wisdom I learned from, Robert Rodriguez.  -If you wanna be a filmmaker, then do it. That night, I posted up a status telling my 500 friends, “Free portraits for kids 2-5, book now.”

I have around five photo shoots booked, yes, for free. I am hiring out myself.

Second project, is to get my portraits done. I wish I could take them myself. I asked a few friends but I decided to do it myself. How you might ask, well.. I will post a blog telling you all about this.

This month of September. A month to stop saying “One Day”.

Testing out 16-35mm on David
