Best Face 2011 with IHF

So hard to pick just one favorite face from 2011.  Of course, an image of my children will always be a favorite. As will the newborn images I took this year. Those are just givens.
So I picked one from an extremely fashion forward, fun senior sessions.  The outfits and colors she chose were just perfect.  And her hair was just beautiful really showcasing her eyes.  Looking at her images just make me smile. It was a great session.
Meet Ms. ‘B’.  I will be posting more from her session very soon but for I Heart Faces I can only show one.

Meet Baby ‘A’ 5 days new [Medina County newborn photographer]

I had the privilege of being there when this little man entered this world and was further privileged to capture Baby ‘A’ on his 5th day of life.  And as his aunt I have made this post a bit photo heavy.  He is just too cute not to overload my blog.

Less words more images..

My Test Models [personal]

The life of photographers children is one filled with crazy, random, spur of the moment ‘please stand here just for a quick second.’  No one can tell you that better then my littles. Except usually the words that follow are “can you go change into a different outfit?’ and truly the moment last a bit longer maybe even 30 minutes.  This week was no exception, I saw a tutorial on how to make beautiful Christmas light images. And how better to practice this technique  then  with my littles. They were good sports and oh so cute! christmas

Now off to find white lights with white wire.. not liking the dark wire.

Autumn Splendor.

This week at I heart Faces they are celebrating autumn splendor. As most people know about me I dislike very much the cold weather that is about to arrive. But I do love the colors of autumn, the warm golden sun light that happens this time of year. Especially being a photographer I have really come to embrace the splendor of Autumn. I took this image last week while watching the littles playing. The sun was just going down and the rays were just gorgeous, I had no idea I heart Faces would be spotlight this this week but I was so excited to be able to participate. Don’t forget to head over the IHF site and check out the other entries.

life.

Recently, I have been overwhelmed by the realness that is Life.  I have heard of several little ones taken to soon.  It makes me almost to sad to truly enjoy my little ones just thinking of these families that no longer have their precious ones.  This week I took one day and just enjoyed the littles being little. Yes, my house was not tended to, clothes didn’t get washed, dishes didn’t make it to the dishwasher, rooms not swept but laughter, tears, hugs and kisses were shared. Extra of those poured on them this day.  I didn’t care that I was woke up at 6:30am and didn’t get to bed until much pass 10pm. I was reminding myself my friend would give anything for one more moment no matter the time.  My heart breaks for these dear families.

This is what we enjoyed together this day. Ms. ‘C’ at ballet. The door gets closed for most of the class so I only got a few quick images.  She loves to dance and is a great follower.

We walked to the park while ‘C’ finished up. I love this image of ‘F’ she just takes everything around her in. She is a women of few words but you know what she is thinking.

‘G’ attended a baseball camp put on by the High School Varsity Assistant coach.  He had a blast! He loves baseball.

So intense.

What boy doesn’t try to get dirty. This slide ended in a few scrapes, which made him rethinking sliding again.

Ms.’C’ was into posing. Maybe that is the secret.. carry the camera around all day taking pictures of the mundane things then it is no big deal.

Even ‘F’ got into the posing.

Don’t want to forget this little look. It is one of my favorites. Sometimes it is not the smiles but the sweet little faces.

I don’t understand God’s ways sometimes, I don’t even know all of details to these little ones deaths.

I  look to God when I don’t know what to do, to think or say. I pray for healing and comfort for these families that only God can provide. I thank God for the angels around my home and littles. I thank God for this one day to enjoy them.
