Sweater Weather

Alright here is that gender revel post I was talking about in a previous post!

A few things I learned from this shoot. When it's cold you are super limited, especially with children. I had a plan for all these little detail shots, and mom and son, and mom and dad poses but that just couldn't happen with the weather. Also if everything is not lightly covered in snow, then winter scenes are pretty colorless. I think there is this window where outside photography just isn't pretty enough. Between fall and winter.

But besides all that, it was a fun little shoot. The day of the shoot the ultrasound did not actually reveal the gender so we ended up doing both blue and pink balloons. And now we know...... it's a girl!

I am very excited to post these photos from a shoot today with Greg M. He is headed off for a two year Spanish speaking mission in California for his church. I was very happy he came to me to take some pre-mission photos because I have yet to do a male photoshoot and wondered if I could even think of enough poses for a shoot. I thought it went pretty good and my only regret was not brining along a little step stool so I could get a higher perspective.

I was also excited to do a shoot with a theme/purpose... because its fun.

p.s. I do have a gender reveal shoot planned for the end of November, so look forward to that :)

Yesterday I was able to do a photoshoot of the beautiful Nadeau girls that I've been looking forward to all week! We went to centennial park, which I am glad I took Rachel there earlier to test out some spots because it helped me figure out the lighting better for this time. But, now that I've got centennial down I'm ready to try some new places.

Also.... don't listen to blogs. I read a blog the other day which said I should set my ISO to auto, and it wasn't till the middle of the photoshoot that I finally took it off and things suddenly began to work the way I wanted them too! Also, I've started shooting in manual instead of aperture which I am really excited about.

For the past month I've been wanting to do a shoot of Oliver down this little trail alongside some power lines, and today.... I finally stopped thinking about it and did it! He was absolutely adorable and I love how they turned out. I have a lot of keepsake photos of him making his funny faces that he makes, but here are some of my favorite "normal" ones.

I've also been trying out a different style of editing. I love the hazy faded look that so many people are doing these days and I think I found a technique I like.... I only did a couple in this post because I still like the bright vivid color edits too! Which do you like, hazy, or vivid?

Earlier this week I did a little photoshoot with the lovely Rachel. I wanted to test out a bunch of different spots throughout Centennial Park for later possible shoots. My two favorite spots were the train tacks and a wooden fence. So, here are a couple of my favorite pictures from the evening!
