Family photos: Family photographer Easton, MA

I am playing catch up on a bunch of blog posts.  I was holding out for awhile so that I didn't ruin anyone's Christmas presents. Needless to say over the next few days I will be blogging a lot.

This family was so much fun to photograph.  And one of my first large groups to do. I believe there are 18 of them.  It was so much fun.  And I truly think I love photographing large groups. It was a great session. I We got them all in and just as we where finishing up the skies opened up and it started to pour.

 

Photography Challenge Week 8: Bokeh Shapes

This challenge did not go quite as planned but I guess that is why it is a challenge. I finally figured out why it didn't come out as planned.  I will be redoing this later on in the week. 

Photography Challenge Week 7: Light Painting South Eastern, MA Photographer

I have been waiting for this challenge.  I had it in my head how it would go.  I thought I was going to be able to use my flash light for the whole thing.  I thought I would be able to write words with it.  Guess what writing words with a big flash light doesn't work.  So off I went to staples today to buy a small flash light or a laser pointer.  I ended up buying these really cool small flash lights with glow stick bottoms.  I think this will be great for light painting.  I didn't have time to use them yet but I promise a post later this week with my new light painting photos.  This is  a fun concept and I cant wait to try them at a session. 
For this I had to use what was on hand though.  So I used the big flash light and my willow tree Nativity set figures.  I light the flash light right over mary to give it a spot light effect.  then swirled the flash light fast to illuminate the other figure just a little. 

Photography Challenge Week 6: Backlighting, South Eastern MA photographer

This challenge was a quick one for me.  I am glad there was inside options as it has been far to cold for me to do outside work.   This weeks challenge was all about back lighting with any light source.  At first I tried my daughters night light but that was just not enough so I used a small led flash light.  I really liked the results and I can not wait to try this again.  Will be fun to do at a wedding.

Photography Challenge Week 5: Starry Night Sky, Taunton, MA

This challenge was a difficult one.  Not only do you need to get your setting just right but you need the perfect night to get the stars just right.  I loved trying this challenge. I found the challenge to be with light pollution   Some day I will get myself to the beach or the middle of a field somewhere on a very starry night and get some great shots. For my first try I think they came out pretty good.  I can't wait to try this again.

Photography Challenge Week 4: Prisms Taunton, MA Photographer.

This weeks Challenge was very challenging.  I very much had this image in my head. I thought this would be a great idea to use when photographing an engagement or couple session among Christmas trees with lighting over head. I can picture the fun lights reflecting everywhere.  How pretty would that be.  Some day I will do a session like that.  But until then my handsome English Bulldog Baxter modeled for me.  As much as I think this didn't come out just how I wanted I really could image all the fun ways to use the prism in the future.  It will become a fixture in my camera bag for sure.
 

 The one above you can see the haze it caused over the image
The one below you can see the prism in the corner very interesting.

Photography Challenge: Window Light: Taunton, MA Photographer.

This weeks photography challenge was something I had some major plans for.  I had a picture in my head of what I wanted.  Sometimes time escapes you so  I am so thankful to have amazing clients that let me use there families for this photography challenge. 

Yesterday I got the great honor to photography one of newborn family one year later.  I had her stand in on a little chair in front of the family's  big beautiful window.  This was the results.  

Photography Challenge: Middleboro, MA Photographer.

Alright this weeks photo challenge was completely out of my comfort zone.  I love photographing people.  I am not really comfortable with landscapes.  But this is what it is all about.  Trying new thing taking yourself to a new level.  This location is the Middleboro, MA Herring run.  Beautiful area.

I will have many more blog posts this week. 

Challenging Myself!!! Easton MA. Fall minis.

I am posting just one sneak peek of this family from my mini sessions yesterday.  I am participating in a photography challenge and this picture fits perfectly. I knew this photo would be perfect for this weeks challenge the minute I put my camera to my face.  I hope you all love it.  I am very excited to be apart of this challenge and can't wait to post more.

Oh so CUTE!!!

A few weeks ago I got to do Ella's 6 month photos. I cant believe it had been 6 months since I did her newborns.  She is just too cute. 

 

 

She made me work for every smile but it was so worth it

 

 

 

I took a photo of Ella in a pink bucket for her newborn sessions.  I also took a photo in the same bucket for her 6 month session.  I love to see the growth.

Beach mini sessions Sept. 2013

At the beginning  of September I got the wonderful opportunity to photograph some amazing families for our beach mini sessions.  Despite the wind and cold it turned out beautiful and fun. I can not wait to do it again next year. 

 

 

 

 

We are currently booking fall mini sessions.  If you are interested please check out our Facebook page for more details.

Beach Mini Sessions

I am doing Beach Mini Sessions at horseneck beach this coming Sunday.  Book your sessions today.

Mommy and Me's

I recently got to do some amazing mommy and me mini sessions.  I loved them.  And I am so hoping to do some Beach minis really soon.  (before fathers day)

 

I want to share with you some of the photos from that day.

 

 

I enjoyed doing this set of mini sessions so much.  I can not wait for the next set of mini's.

 

Toy Story 3/365

I feel like my poor little 365 day project is going to be all my little Sophia.  I will try to mix it up for you all in the future.  But she is one cute little subject to be photographing.

Sophia loves toy story.

Tonight while watching toy story my husband surprised our daughter with a buzz light yeah and woody. 

I wanted to make sure you could see the TV in the back ground. Notice the movie.

 



Mommy and Me mini Session

These mini sessions will most likely be at Oliver mill park in middleboro.  Its a beautiful park and offers great areas to shoot at.

These sessions are not just for moms.  Grandmothers with grandkids. Or moms if you wanted photos of your daughter in your wedding dress.  This is the perfect time. 

Sophia loves to read! 2/365

Sophia loves to read!  She will sit in her room and pull every book off of her book shelf and read them all to herself.  I just really wish she would be as excited to put them back. 

 

Ok so I am already behind in my 365 day project.  I will be posting 2 blog posting of this project tomorrow.  So keep an eye out for some wonderful snowy pictures. 

365 project

I have seen many photographers doing 365 day projects. One photo every day for a year. Well I am a little slow to the game and I am starting a little late. But here it goes.

I am doing this in hopes that I will photograph MY life more, my little girl more, my puppy, new things, and the world around me. I am doing this so I will pick up my camera way more than I do already (everyday) and learn new things, try new things and have new adventures. I am doing this so I can see what I am capable of and so you as readers, clients, future clients can see as well. I am challenging myself. I hope to learn a lot from this experience.

So here is the first one.

Day 1/365

Today my little one and I had her "Music Together" Class. She loves it and so do I.

I plan on doing a whole blog post on her class.

 

 

I hope you like day one of my 365 day project.

Baxter the dog

.

I thought I would make a blog post about my first baby. He is 5 going on 6. He is 65 lbs of pure muscle. He sleeps all day, snores so loud, and well let’s just say he doesn't smell like roses. But I love him. He is camera shy so getting photos of him as of late has been difficult. (This may be due to me dressing him up in costumes  as a puppy and taking lots of photos. LOL.) But the other day my daughter wanted to read him stories while he was sunning himself. I grabbed my camera quick. Here is what I caught

 

 

 Mid story this little guy decided to take a nap. Sitting up.

 

 

This is what he is normally like when I bring out the camera.  Ready to bark and tell me to get the camera out of his face.

 

 

Happy Valentines Day

 For my Valentines Day mini sessions I got to photograph one of my favorite families. 
The Goetz girls are happy and fun kids.  I can't wait to photograph them again.
 

 

 Aren't they just the cutest?

 

They both have the most gorgeous eyes.

 



I tried a little something different with next photo.  I was testing out a new piece of equiment I have really wanted to be able to use.

It was a little harder then I expected but I think the results are pretty good and I hope to get even better. 

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY

I hope you all have a great one.
