Valentines

I had this idea of creating a unique Valentine for the boys to pass out at school and skip the Spiderman/Power Ranger/Superhero mass marketed tacky valentines. Now don’t get me wrong…we are very good American consumers and buy our fair share of mass marketed character “stuff”. Evey year I draw the line somewhere. This year I drew it at Valentine’s cards.

In an effort to do something creative…I turned to the internet. I mean I have boys, they are not going to hold up hearts or signs that say “Love You” for more than three seconds without destroying them. So I cruise other photographer web sites I for inspiration and ideas. Here is the idea I completely stole from another photographer.

And here is a picture of the finished product. If anyone wants to know how I “technically” did this…leave me comment and I promise to answer!

Workshop

This past weekend I had the honor of hostessing a photography workshop led by Skye Hardwick and hanging out with 25 other talented photographers who are just as passionate and excited about photography as I am. How fun is it when you find 25 other people who want to talk shop and never get that glazed look in their eyes?

I learned a lot about finding my style, and got some good tips on how to mange and run my business. I asked some friends to lend their kids out as models for all of us photograph. They all were the perfect models…cooperative, easy going, and up for anything. Even Cal and Eli got into it.

I did not get as much shooting time since I was trying to manage the paparazzi but I did mange to get off a few images.

Skye with Cal and Eli…I am so excited to have images of them, since they NEVER pose for me anymore
And “miss happy”. Never saw a child so happy to be photographed…I know it freaked her mom out quite a bit.
