I am hoping that this will be the last session that Nick demands be taken... However, I may demand we do one in the Spring so we have all the seasons documented.  I did have a great time tromping around in the cold and snow to get these!  And I was very happy to get back in the car and warm up!  Even amongst all the teenage angst, he still has a great laugh.  I love this one!  I know it is extremely tilted, but that's part of what I like about it!  The night before, I had seen a train chugging away in the snow and I thought it was absolutely beautiful!  I wish I would have had more time to prepare for this one.  I heard it and had about 20 seconds to get in a good spot and get all my settings right.  Because of the snow and how dark it was, the camera was having a hard time focusing so I didn't really get what I wanted.  I couldn't take off my gloves and put it on manual focus quick enough, very bummed abou...

This is the engagement session for Jessica and Adam, they are getting married in May and I cannot wait!  This was their 3rd or 4th engagement sitting, I know it sounds strange, but they won a couple of sittings at wedding shows.  It was awesome, they were like old pros at it!  Sometimes I meet couples that fit like puzzle pieces and these 2 definitely are like that! I love it!  I told Adam to pick up Jess and spin her around and when he put her down, she picked him and twirled him around.  It was awesome!  We were walking down Pearl Street and this little dog was running around, alluding his owner.  The dog would wait for him to get close, then he would dart away making his master follow.   It was very cute!  This was the icing on the cake!  At our last stop, the man with the guitar accosted my assistant (it was really my husband, who was being very helpful!) aski...

I feel like I have been ignoring my blog... Well, probably everything! This time of year is definitely slow and after the holidays, it's hard to get going again! This year was particularly hard, there has been so much sickness in our house that I keep loosing my focus like a cat loosing the string! I am hoping we are all done with the sickness... I thought I would share some of my photographs from our little trip to New Mexico. We left Nick home... by himself... all by himself, kind of freaked me out! Just a little bit! He did great-ish, there was quite a mess and several 2 liters of pop all over. But that's pretty darn good for a teenager I guess. He and his friend Brent put together a large fort, you can check out their video here - it is pretty cool!  We really went to see the Luminaries, they are quite wonderful!  But we missed the best show, that is Christmas Eve in Santa Fe (I suppose other places too, but Santa Fe's is fabulous!).  I was so gla...
