Oh I wish you could freeze moments in time. Kelsey all of a sudden this weekend seemed to change. She's so much more interactive, laughing and playing. I took the opportunity of some beautiful afternoon light to take some cute pics of her playing with her feet. I took similar photos of Owen with the old point and shoot at the same age and wanted to compare.
I'll post his last...
Here's Owen at the same age-
I had the pleasure of photographing my friend Gretchen and her family a few weeks ago. They are expecting a new baby very soon. This was a funny shoot, as some too-friendly ducks kept getting into the shots. That was a first for me-chasing away crazy ducks.
Can't wait to see the new baby Gretchen!
I was visiting my grandparents recently and they have this suction cup hummingbird feeder on their window that was awesome. I brought my camera and was trying to get the little guys. They would only come to it if I was inside the house of course so I had to shoot through the window, which also meant manual focus. Try to MF with a fast hummingbird! I could only get it when it landed, but it was still pretty cool
I was sitting out on the deck the other night after getting the kids both to bed (which is a monumental effort some days) and the sun was just about to set. I saw this spider web in the lattice on the deck and had about 2 minutes to catch it before the light went away. I am really not a fan of spiders but the webs are pretty cool.
Last weekend was my town's annual garden walk. Unfortunately I was a clutz and hurt my foot a few days before so I only went to a few this year.
Life with 2 kiddos is exhausting and sweet at the same time. I haven't had any time to do photo projects of course, so I've been trying to catch some sweet moments with the kids when I can grab the camera. Most of the time it's my iPhone, but I've been trying to be better about taking out the good one.
Oh and yes I do dress them sometimes...it's just been a really hot summer with no AC!
This is my beautiful baby girl Kelsey. She was born on May 27th (yest I am way behind on blogging for obvious reasons. It was so much fun to take photos of my own newborn, although I wish I had time to take more. They grow up way too fast!
Of course big brother had to get in on the action too!
I haven't posted in forever. I'm literally waiting for the baby to come...any time now. Owen and I were playing outside the other night before bed and this butterfly landed on our fence. I like that the fence needs paint in this photo. I think it adds more texture. These butterflies don't normally make it up this far north, but due to the warm spring have found their way up here.
