merry christmas!

Hey everyone! I'm going to spend Christmas with my family in Louisiana. I hope you all have a very merry Christmas! I'll see you when I get back home. Be safe, everyone, and God bless.

gingerbread house

Here's a candid from one of several holiday gatherings. In this shot my oldest is putting some finishing candies on top of the gingerbread house we made (it came in a kit, I'm not that good). It was fun, I'd never made a gingerbread house before. Now the question is how long does it have to sit out as decor before you can eat it?

the boys

Here's some more of my kiddos from the session i posted earlier. Just wanted to share...

erika and daniel

Finally, here's a composite of Erika and Daniel's wedding! Shot in Louisiana, last month, it was really a lot of fun. Congratulations to the both of them!

flowers

...just something a little different from my usual posts. enjoy.

tradition

Every Christmas I take portraits of my boys. Not only does it document what they looked like at the end of every year, but it also serves as great presents to the grandparents for Christmas, them getting updated and current pics of the boys. Anyway, this year I went with a simple straight on approach. Aaaaand my youngest really wasn't in the mood for it, but sometimes you take what you can get, but with those faces, you really can't get enough-smiling or not!

the dress

Erika and Daniel got married the weekend before Thanksgiving. I'll have some highlights from the wedding up soon, but here's her dress. I like the three of these together because the difference of color temperature between each shot. They look like old photographs of different wedding dresses that were thrown together, but worn by different women at a different time.

calla lilies

I didn't realize calla lilies were so graceful until I set them upon my dining room table and took a step back. These flowers beg to be photographed, which is why I see so much of them in artwork. Anyway, here's my contribution. Happy Tuesday!

Christine and Blake

Christine and Blake are old friends of mine. I photographed their wedding some years back, and they called me up to get some updated pics of them. Thought I'd share a few...
I love old, run down stuff, and with their casual wear I thought the old barrel wouldn't detract.
