Palfreeman Boys

These boys were so much fun to photograph... I love photographing kids because the things they do are so priceless. Check out the picture of little bro choking big bro! Classic!!!

Nancy

Loving Choices Pregancy Center is a great ministry that helps young women deal with unexpected pregnancies. The hearts of the people who work with this organization are HUGE, and it is so neat to meet people who have gone through their ministry. About a month ago I got the pleasure of meeting sweet Nancy. She was 36 weeks pregnant and her water broke right after we got done with her shoot! You should have seen us walking all over Downtown Fayetteville! We looked so funny waddling down the street! I wish I would have found someone to take our picture! I hope you enjoy these! What a great testimony to Loving Choices!

 

 

Let the blogging bonanza begin!!!

Ok, I have been saving up my shoot post from the past month and a half so I would have things to post when I was on maternity leave. That time is here, and I am super excited to start these posts! I have been trying to shoot something everyday (minus the couple weeks where I was very preggo or a new mamma) just to try to really understand exposure and work on my post processing. It has been really fun, and I am really falling in love with photography and it's technical aspects.

First of all, here is my sweet baby, Asa Joy. She is so precious, and it has been really fun to learn some newborn shooting techniques while using my own little lovie!

I will continue with my post of Nancy's maternity shoot tomorrow.  She was super fun, and I got some of the best maternity shots I've ever taken.  Check back!!!!

The past three weeks...

I have been a really terrible blogger after I really stuck with it for a couple weeks! I have to admit, keeping up with a blog is really hard for me. First of all, teaching is uber time demanding. I work "part" time, which in teaching just means that I am only in the classroom a few days a week, but the work load is still really demanding. At this point in my life, teaching comes before photography. I have been super blessed by the opportunity to have a creative outlet in photography, and I fully realize that my business doesn't quite get the attention it needs because of my "real" job! I love teaching. I love my kiddos. I love my school. I love my coworkers.  (P.S.... My teaching partner, Rhonda, has to be the most awesome partner/friend ever. She is really making my life easy in getting ready to take the rest of the year off to spend time with my new little sweetness, Asa. Thanks for being so wonderful, Rhonda!!!!)

That being said, the past three weeks have consisted of finalizing grades, report cards, and getting ready for state testing.  All of that is quite time demanding! On top of all that, my sweet little girl Asa will be born sometime this week. My parents were way awesome in coming all the way from Washington to help us get her room ready! How great are they?!? Even though I had Eli only 19 months ago, I forgot how long it takes to get ready for a new little one! Between washing clothes, painting, rearranging, etc., who has time for anything besides that! Do you see why I never get any sleep?????

Somewhere in between all of that, I found time for about six shoots, two invitation creations, a graduation announcement creation, and a thank you note creation! Slowly but surely, these posts will happen! I am going to start today with a super cute baby named Landon. His mama and I work together and she needed a few current shots of him for Baby Dedication at their church. These were literally taken right outside the school building. The lighting was PERFECT and I will probably do some baby shoots there in the future! Ha! Anyways, enjoy the shots of cute baby Landon!

Traci's Maternity Shoot

First of all, I have no idea why all of my pics pictures look over exposed on here, because this is not what they look like on my computer when I am editing... hopefully when I switch everything over to my new blog, it won't be this way! Anyways, the pics are cute nonetheless!

Traci works for Loving Choices of Northwest Aarkansas, and she helps women make informed decisions about an unplanned pregnancy.  They love these girls soooo much and after shooting some of them, I hear the heart of their ministry becoming the heart of these girls! I am so thankful for their ministry and for Traci's heart in guiding these women. 

Check back tomorrow for Jaret's full post!

Sweet, Sweet Caleb

One of my dearest friends has the absolutely sweetest little boy named Caleb. Caleb and I are buddies. Seriously, he comes over to my house every Tuesday, and for some reason, I have become his favorite... Ok, maybe not, but we are buddies none the less.
