{ WINTER LIGHT }

Posted in CHILDREN 7 comments

We have had such a long winter. I can’t begin to count how many times it snowed. And although snow is a very beautiful sight, it can get old after 4 months! Winter is typically my down time. It gives me a chance to brain storm new photography and business ideas for the coming year. I have some great things planned! Now if only I can find the time to execute it all! Watch for an online photography class, a posing and lighting book, and an alumni class dedicated to creating outstanding B&W’s! So much to do!

I am always perpetually behind on blogging….and you know what, that’s OK! I have decided to stop beating myself up over it and just embrace it. I do what I can when I can. I have dozens of past sessions that have never been blogged. So you will notice from now on things will not hit the blog in order of year or even seasons. You may see a winter session in the middle of the summer and a summer session during the fall. It’s just the way it’s going to have to be!

This session was shot at 2 different locations. We spent about 5 minutes at each place! It was actually a pretty nice day (for what we have been used to). The lighting was beautiful and I am pleased with the good light that we found as most of our days have been gloomy and overcast. Hope you enjoy the winter light.

Thanks for all the fun opportunities and for posting so many wonderful images – I appreciate you sharing your talent & time…..you are an awesome inspiration to us all:)

I took your online group class about 6 months ago but feel that I would benefit greatly by taking another one. A lot sank in and it has helped my editing more than any other class I have taken but I know I missed a lot, too. Having a one-on-one would be great as I have specific questions now and challenges that I would love to ask you.

I have only really been doing this for a year but in
My heart a lifetime… I just never took that step.
Now I want to take the step to learn more so
I can be better for my brides or bumps or babes.
You are one of my inspirations… I can’t wait till
I’m in a position where I can teach and affect others
The way you do. I’m a big fan of paying it forward.
Keep smilin’
Laura
