All I wanted for Mother's Day...

was a photo session with my boys, and I got it! It seems that I have all these fabulous images of everyone elses children, but not nearly enough of my own. In fact, I only have ONE picture of my boys together that I consider worthy of display in my home....ONE! So, I decided it was time to do something about that...and what better day than Mother's Day?! My oldest is a bit reluctant to let me take pictures of him these days. Did I say a bit reluctant? Well, what I meant to say is that he absolutely detests when I pull out the camera. It's like pulling teeth to get a picture of him. So when he agreed to this shoot and didn't complain ONE time, I was in HEAVEN! I went to a few of my favorite spots and got some wonderful pictures of my handsome boys. Check it out.



























































































And yours truly here in my Mother's Day getup....taken by my oldest, complete with toddler tugging at my arm.;-)




















Well, that wasn't ALL I got for Mother's Day, even though I would've been ecstatic with these pictures alone. But I was woken up by three guys (husband included) bearing gifts and cards. Then wisked away into the kitchen where there was a full pot of fresh coffee (an absolute morning MUST in this household!) and a beautifully prepared omelette waiting for me. Ahhh...it was glorious!

I've got many newborn and maternity sessions to share! I'll try to post ASAP! I've been super busy with my new site. And I'm happy to report that I have all of my wording finished and am moving on to my picture selection! YAY! That's the fun part!!

Til next time.........

Inspiration

It's everywhere. You just have to know how to spot it. Or not. Maybe you just have to take a chance on something. You never know until you try, right? Since getting into photography, I have come to the realization that there is beauty EVERYWHERE. Sometimes it's blatant, other times not so much. But, if you truly search and truly open your mind to your surroundings and *connect* with them, you will find this beauty that may not be noticable at first glance. You will find something unique. And you will find something so intriguing that only a photograph will do it justice. Once we begin to open our eyes to this sort of discreet and hidden beauty we will be able to see things in an entirely different light.....even at a carwash...









Keep your eyes peeled.;-)
