Sharing the Light Workshop - Part II

So after the fun family that Kim lined up for us to shoot, we met Lindsay, our "sunset" model. Believe it or not, Lindsay isn't a regular model, just a wonderful friend of Kim's. Not only was she very sweet but she's beautiful and very photogenic which made it very easy for us photographers to pose her and play with the light. Enjoy some of my favorite pictures!

Sharing the Light Workshop - Part 1

A couple of weeks ago, I had the honor in participating in a photo workshop with 5 other ladies. All of us are photographers that want to broaden our business and fine tune our skills. And all of us have a common connection through our faith - what a better way to bond!

A special thanks to my friend, Kimberly Moore (http://kimberlyreneephotography.blogspot.com/), who thought up this idea and put it into action. For our first workshop we started with a brainstorming session, sharing about our wants/needs/strengths of our photography talents. Kim graciously shared her lighting kit that we played with for a bit at her home and then we ventured out to a local field where she had lined up two great model groups to practice with and share ideas. These are some of my favorite shots of the sweet family group. Stay tuned for my favorites from our "sunset" model!

Ladies - I'm looking forward to our next workshop and thrilled to have become acquainted with you all!

Stephanian Family

This family was overdue for updated family group pictures. Ring leaders Cortney and Forrie's kids are growing fast and their oldest Jared is about to graduate high school. Over a year ago brother, Jeremy and wife Lindee welcomed new addition, Jenna. Great-uncles were in town to visit and Grandma Mickey's health is not good so pictures together were very valuable. So glad we were able to set a date and make it work with all the schedules back in February.

This beautiful couple is what got the ball rolling on family pictures. Thanks again Cortney & Forrie for opening up your beautiful home for our location!
