This is due to my recently acquiring an awesome job at Cattilac Style as a T-shirt Designer/Graphic Artist.  *Throws confetti in the Air*  I’m very excited about this opportunity!

Of course, I’m still open for business.  Especially senior pictures… Seniors of 2011, you are thinking about your Senior pictures early, right? : ) It’s best to get them done by December or January so you can get all the extras, announcements, etc. you want & not have any concern with getting your stuff on time.

Now, of course, an image for the day:

Yes, I’m posting a little less, but I’m still around. Email me if you’re interested in a session & we’ll work out the details.

Happy Tuesday to all!

Hope you haven’t missed me too much the last few days (okay, weeks) but things have been hectic.  Hopefully I can get back into the swing of blogging before too long.

Enjoy the last bluebonnet!

Otherwise, we’re still in the bluebonnet theme for Tuesdays. Here’s a more detailed shot than the others I’ve shown here so far. If you look closely, you can even see some of the wildlife (aka bugs) that live around bluebonnets.

I love bluebonnets. : ) I don’t think I could have a prettier state flower (well, unless I could have a daisy or sunflower… but I shouldn’t admit it, being a born and bred Texan).

Happy Tuesday! : )

With no further babble from me, enjoy the images!  There are a few more than usual because I just couldn’t choose.  Does anyone else think that happens alot?

Our first meeting ended with a nice downpour, so we used the opportunity to shoot with an umbrella then decided when to reschedule for another day.  Sometimes it just happens… but we got some cute pictures! ; )

The sky was gorgeous both times I met with her.  When it actually rains, it’s a problem, but when it’s just thinking about rain, you get the loveliness of these sessions.

We found a tall field of wheat… hay?… either way it was very green & very perfect for Haley’s images. Don’t her blonde hair & blue eyes just jump out of the image?

If you want to see more, I uploaded quite a few from this session to flickr… sometimes I let my flickr “presence” slack since I’d rather post on my blog, but I was feeling in a flickr mood lately, so click over for more.  I know I would. : )

Haley: The photo shoot(s) were so much fun!  Thanks for being so full of ideas & up for anything!  (And thanks to your mom for driving us around, lol).

These are the cute boots that Desiree wore for our session. Aren’t they fabulous?

The image is pretty busy, but I think it’s balanced out by the pop of color of her boots. Plus I undoubtably love the grass & the shadows it made. : D

What do you think? Is the image busy or do you like it?

Now enjoy:

Texture. So, do you like textures on images or not? Sometimes I think it can be overused, but I liked it on this image. What do y’all think?

I love all of these images. But this is my favorite. When downloading my images, I knew immediately this would be my favorite… then I saw the other one a few down in the tall grass… and it’s my favorite, too. : D

Look at those lovely green eyes… I just love crisp, pretty eyes in photographs.  And hers are so reflective & hazel… wonderful!

The one above. That’s my other favorite favorite.. they’re both so different & yet so beautiful.

As you can see, we had a little more fun at the end… who doesn’t love bubbles? : )

Desiree, I had a wonderful time shooting with you!  Thanks for setting some time aside.  And the images are so beautiful, I know it was worth it. Hehe…

I hope everyone has a great weekend… I know I will! : D

I don’t think I told her this during the session, but it must be said: Brooke, I love that necklace… oh, and that you were so wonderful to work with… yeah, that was awesome!

: )

Um, lovely peacock hairpiece… Yes!  : )

Pointe shoes!

I absolutely adore how expressive she was during our session. : )

Beautiful… just beautiful.

The sunset was gorgeous!  : )

So, tall grass, ballet shoes, back-lighting, beautiful senior… can it get any better?  : D

PS The answer is “no”… “no, it can’t get any better”… ; D

See? I just love her smile… and her necklace is cute, too. ; )

Beautiful stained glass at HSU.

Check out her pink shoes.  Aren’t they cute?

And, as promised, the awesome Jacob’s Ladder makes another appearance. : )  Isn’t it perfect for full-body shots?

Well, she’s not smiling, but she looks thoughtful in this image to me.  And maybe a little determined, which I love!  If you check this post, though, it’s the picture that happened in the next 3 seconds, hehe.

Jacob’s Ladder again. And look at the clouds in the sky!  We had great lighting that day.

Haven’t I had the most gorgeous seniors this year? : )  And I’ve still got another post coming from the sessions I did during Spring Break & they’re just as lovely!  : D

Happy Good Friday & Easter, everyone. Have a wonderful holiday!

I just love her dress. : )

And, like I said last time, those eyes!  : )  So blue.

Okay, so confession: it was really really sunny that day.  Glaringly sunny.  And that means I have to think extra hard & keep my eye on harsh shadows.  But it did make some nice back-lit images & lens flare. : )

There’s a place at ACU called Jacob’s Ladder.  It was fabulous!  I’m so glad Emily told me about it.  Watch for it again in Emily’s friend Lauren’s session which will be coming up soon. : )

So I’m pretty sure the image above is my favorite close-up image. : )  The details and her smile are just wonderfully wonderful.

And, finally, I just love this last image.  : )  Her dress, shoes, pose, and the little bit of yellow stripe peeking into the image off the pavement.

Ah, senior sessions, they’re so fun!
