My Cute Guy

I wish all my children would pose for me the way Gabe does. He's such a sweet boy. Can't believe he is going to be five this month. Can't wait to do some b-day pictures.
Did I mention he really likes to be silly.

WHY I PICK UP MY CAMERA

My friend, and fellow photographer, Mera asked this question on her blog. Why do you pick up your camera? I'll have to admit lately I haven't picked up my camera at all. In my pursuit to become a better photographer, at times I feel discouraged. I feel like I'm not progressing as fast as I would like. And life with four kids just gets busy. Nobody likes a stressed out mom, right?

I was looking through some pictures I took and I found this one. Yes, this picture isn't perfect. I wish the mothers face was more in the picture and sharper. But it's the story I love. Look at that sweet, newborn baby looking and smiling at his mommy. You can't see all of the mother's face but you can see the happiness she is feeling. This is why I pick up my camera. I love to capture those little moments that are personal and have meaning. With a picture you'll always have something to hold onto and remember. So my photography journy continues. I wonder what I'll capture tomorrow?

Family Fun on the Farm

The day started out rainy and windy. I felt bad about cancelling the shoot but I knew the kids would be miserable. Luckely, the weather improved and we ended up taking pics later in the day. And I must say these are some of my favorites.
