this is us.

Welcome to what I like to call my second home. It's where I like to be when my kids give me a few seconds to share what I love most- them.

I started my photography journey a little over two years ago just wanting to take better pictures of my kids. I fell in love and quickly jumped into my own business. I took pictures of a lot of other peoples kids, but was often too tired to capture the memories of my own. I have come full circle and am back to shooting the ones I love.

Right now my main focus is perfecting my art. While I have decided not to be in business at this time, I would love for this to be a place of inspiration and beauty. Somewhere I can share myself in my work. As photographer Nan Goldin once said, "This is a diary I let people read." I have many different projects in mind and can't wait to see them come to life.

I am an artist who loves to share the beauty of a smile, a connection and a laugh. I have a story to tell and a journey I would love to share with you.

Let's have some fun!

I ♥ Faces (beach) – be ART

Tuesday, July 28, 2009

Okay guys (and when I say guys I mean mostly gals- well and maybe a few guys)I found a really fun site that I thought I would share. You might have heard of it, but I hadn’t until a few days ago soooo…. I ♥ Faces is a place where you can enter your photos into their weekly contests. I have decided to do this weekly as I think it would help to push me shoot more creatively and with purpose. This weeks theme was beaches. Ummm yeah I just moved from Vegas to Utah…we aint got no stinkin beaches. *tear* So I had to pull one from a while ago when I was in So. Cali. I love this shot of Miss. She looks so beautiful and stylish…I decided to use it. It reminds me of such a fun weekend. A weekend filled with no kids, sun, beautiful sunsets, lots of laughs with my sweet sister-in-law and chocolate covered apples. *mmm drooling.*

So check them out and enter!!! It will be fun! See ya over there.

Also thanks so much for the loving comments on Jayda’s post. I spoke with my sister today and she really feels your love and appreciates you all!

Thanks for looking! Now stop looking and go enter your picture!

In case anyone was wondering…I used a golden reflector to get her properly exposed as well as most of the background. Just a little helpful hint coming from me
