Gator fishing edit

Crap I like this one better!!

Do you ever get so excited to share something that you post right away, then later wish you would have waited a bit because you thought of something better to share just moments after? No? Ok it's just me then.

I posted the gator fishing picture the other day with the layered file still open in photoshop. When I opened photoshop later the pictures was still there and I thought hmmm what if I...

So I changed it a bit. Then waited a few days to post in case it happened again. And all is good. This is the final edit. For real.

Would you like to be in a picture like this? Stay tuned I will be posting details on these types of sessions. And I'm thinking maybe a contest you could win a shoot, or a print, or something else. Let me know what you would like to win.

A Family tree

This beautiful tree is the granddaughter of my grandmothers tree. See my grandparents have this pretty tree and it drops seeds and grows more. They dug up a baby one and gave it to my mother. When hers dropped seeds and little saplings started to sprout I got one of those. It took a few years but it finally started producing the fuzzies. I love these pink fluffy things because the attract butterflies. Maybe I'll get a few shots of butterflies soon.

These 2 pictures were taken within minutes of each other. The first one had direct sun light pouring on it like a spot light. The second one was fully shaded, and taken with a slower shutter speed. The slightest shift in angle and camera settings can produce a completely different image. Just another reason I love what I do!

Beach Baby

I have had several people mention to me how much they loved when I would post a picture a day. I found this amusing because to me it seems so long ago. I did it to keep my creativity fresh. And ya know, I could use a little of that now. So why not do it again?!!? So I am going to make it a part of my morning routine to post a picture from the day before. And what better way to officialy start off summer? Yesterday was Holly's first trip to the beach. She LOVED every bit of it, the water, the sand, the sun (except when it was in her eyes). Well the flies weren't so fun, they were chewing on everyone!  Overall it was a fun little outing.

Hello Holly

Hello Holly

It's been an eventful 6 months. Not shooting as much as I would like to, but it's worth it! If you follow me on Facebook or anywhere else then you already know. Just over 6 months ago this little girl stole our hearts! She keeps us busy, but she also keeps us smiling. She has got to be one of the happiest babies I have ever known. She thinks everything is funny. And she loves everyone she meets! Look at her and she will smile and squeal with excitement. At the moment our lives are filled with cloth diapers (a post for another day, long story), nursing, home school, and baby kisses. We are so blessed!!

No more chirping (personal post)

Been hearing crickets here? I know what your thinking. Where the heck is Sarah? Unless you've seen my Facebook page. Well in case you haven't let me just tell you what is going on. Warning this post is entirely personal so if you aren't interested, stop reading now. It won't hurt my feelings, I promise!! I also promise it won't be long as I am not one to over share.

If you don't already know we are expecting a baby girl. Our estimated due date is July 1st. Due to my being over 35, we are visiting a specialist every so often just to be sure all is well with our little one. All test are normal so far, thank God. At our last visit (the first week of February) we learned I have a little something called placenta previa. My questions was.....placenta who now? Well I won't go into details, if you want to know, google it. Because that isn't the point. The point is Doc says take it easy, no heavy lifting, possible C-section, blah blah blah. Not quite bed rest, but close enough. So I am only taking on sessions that I know will be short, or there will be enough breaks during the shoot. We go back next week to find out if anything has changed. Not so much worried about a C-section but the possibility of bed rest has me a little concerned. Not sure how that's going to work out. But we shall see.

Here is a shot of our little thumb sucker from our February visit.

Scan 1In other news, I am working on a few projects that don't require me to be on my feet for too long at a time. I will be sharing those very soon. I just want to work on them a little more before putting any of them out there. Come back next week to see one of those projects!
