{Wedding} Becky & Donovan

Last weekend, I had the pleasure of shooting another wedding. Another simple one actually - just post ceremony and some reception shots. Here is a little sample of my favorites.

Sneak.......

.......I had a wedding this weekend. I'm deep in the editing process, but here is a quick sneak at what I'm working on. Stay tuned!!

{Engagement} Samantha & Jed

I took this couple out Friday after work to do their engagement pictures. She was very excited....he wanted nothing to do with the camera. But he was definitely open to suggestion and direction, so that definitely made it a little easier for us girls. Here are a few samples the shoot.

(yes, their faces are supposed to be blurry.....the ring is the focus)

Happy Easter!

We decided to go all out with Carter this year for Easter. He was quite excited to decorate his eggs....with all the colors and stickers, he was in hog heaven! My little artist had such a fun time. Since it was pretty chilly yesterday, we decided to decorate the eggs inside....which required covering the kitchen table with lots of newspaper so the dye didn't.....well, dye my table.

We got all of our colors ready.....we got lots!

For the first couple of eggs, we showed him the proper way to "dunk" them.

And then he got to do his own....he preferred to just drop them in.

Admiring his work.

And really, I wouldn't be a true fan if I didn't have THIS egg:
And then first thing this morning, we hid all the eggs for Carter to find. He had so much fun....he would scream the second he saw an egg and then take off in a dead run to go get it.

He had quite a full basket by the time he was done!!

And of course, had to sample the candy-filled eggs.


Happy Easter!!

Back at It

Now that Eric has been cleared for full work release and all activities, we have resumed family swim time. Last year, we did this weekly at thy gym when the weather was chilly. And then when it was gorgeous outside, we would head to the club house at one of the private golf courses (it's nice to know people) and cool off in the pool. This year, we hope to do much of the same. Today, we took Carter to the gym. His swimming is leagues better this year - I can tell he definitely listens better on how to kick and use his arms. I clearly need to get him into lessons, or just teach him since I was in swimming lessons my entire childhood. Might as well do it myself instead of paying someone else, right? Here are some shots from today.Gee, I can't tell if he's having any fun!!

After spending quite a bit of time jumping in, we ditched the pool and headed for the hot tub. He LOVES the bubbles. Can't say that I blame him - it's quite relaxing after splashing all over the pool. I'm sure we will be back next weekend!

Mr. Attitude?

I stuck Carter in the direct sunlight today, hoping to catch his baby-blues.....and I told him to give me a big boy smile. This is what he gave me.

Hmmm.....thanks for trying, buddy! ;)
