Considering Children Photography

This is my first attempt at baby photography. Of course, I have photographed children before, but not in my tiny studio, and not with a one year old.  Uffff.... it was fun alright! The baby girl was a vivacious one, curious and wanting to touch everything and anything she could lay her hands on.  Most of the first half of the session was an attempt on my part to get at least a couple of good pics.  I wanted to get everything in the frame... head, arms, feet.... and truthfully, it was the biggest challenge ever. But, after a while, her energy started waning down, and that's when I was able to get this one good shot.

Yoga photography and more....

Well.... looks like it's picking up.  I have a couple of new projects and I am really excited about all of them.

Yoga.  I started practicing Yoga about two years ago.  Truthfully, like many other ideas I've had in the past, I started it and didn't follow it. I have to admit that I have a tendency to get hyper and psyched about things, and then letting them drop.  I'm like a kid that wants a toy and cries and cries until it gets it, and then he gets bored and puts it aside.  Yep, that's me alright.  But yoga is such a great exercise, that I've always wanted to put my mind into it and master it.  And since I have more free time than I used to, I decided to rejoin my old yoga school.  My teacher was really happy to see me again and welcomed me in as if I have never left.

I also approached her with my photography and we are already starting a yoga photography project.  We are both excited and looking forward for the photo shoot session this next week.

Cassidy Creek Soaps

I am very happy to announce that I will be photographing the fabulous products of Cassidy Creek Soaps!!

I have been exchanging emails with Catherine, a new Canadian entrepreneur, who's products will soon be available at her new Etsy store.  She just informed me that the package is in its way.  I can't wait to smell and hold her soaps!  I will tell you all about it, so stay tuned.

My first Pro Bono Client

I have a client! And of course, a promise is a promise.  I will be taking pictures of her fabulous Fairy Wings free of charge.

About two years ago, she started making little fairy wings and started selling them online.  Little did she know that she would be setting up her own website and having an incredible amount of orders.  Fairy Wings Boutique is an ongoing business.  We met last week and she wants to take it to a new level.  She's doing lots of changes to the website and updating the photography and image.  It is such a wonderful project, and I am really excited to be part of it.  Here's a pic of the kind of stuff she does.  I am still battling some lighting issues, but I will get it right.

These rustic wings are my favorites.  They are simple and delicate and have the Handmade stamp all over them.
