It's been so long . . .

and I've been in a sort of photo funk. It's time to snap out of it. So here are some recents. I'm going to try for the photo a day thing and be more mindful of my pics. Enough of a break, already!!! Here are some random shots from the last few weeks. Enjoy!

A photo shoot

And a fun one to boot! I'm showing a lot of them so Penny can pick some favorites for me to edit. Minimal editing thus far. Just a little color work and sharpening for web. The dogs kind of stole the show. I can't tell you how many pics I have with the blur of a tail in it as they ran through the pics. Thank goodness for photoshop! LOL!

What did I learn? Well, I learned that I chop off limbs in photos WAY too often. Also, that the beautiful fall colors far too often throw some weird color casts on the photos. Hopefully I have resolved my color issues. If not, throw me some advice. I can take it!

I hope you find something you like, Penny! You have a beautiful family, that's for certain. I'd love to do more photos of your girls!

Click on a photo to see it larger. I think the colors look washed out on the web. They're much more vibrant IRL. First image has some photoshop work for comparison.

Outdoor shots

We went to the Gardens in the rain! It was cold too. Here are a few of my faves. Enjoy!

Yearbook Photos

Annie came back so I could try to get some better yearbook photos. I like how these turned out. Could she be any cuter?

My attempt at an "Urban Setting"

I can't tell you how far away from Urban my hometown is. But I walked around downtown and found some cool spots to shoot. He is a natural behind the camera, so that made it easy!
