::Family Affair - A Teaser::

THIS...was fun.
After Thanksgiving, I got to do a photoshoot with (simply put) an awesome family.  It was a lovely day.  Not to hot, not too cold...and plenty of natural light to make use of.  Praise the Lord!
I'm playing my way through the editing process right now, but I won't wait any longer to post a few.
It just wouldn't be fair to anyone...especially me.  ;)
Thank you, friends, for letting me capture these moments for you.  The pleasure was all mine.

Without further ado......*drum-roll please*.......I give youuuu.......
The Lampe family.  :)















If a picture's worth a thousand words, have fun deciphering those 5,000 I just gave you.  ;)
Blessings upon blessings,

::Wee Ones - A Surprise::

Over the past few months, I've had the opportunity to do seeeeecret photo shoots with some pretty swell kiddos!  :)  Their lovely grandma wanted to surprise her children for Christmas with pictures of their little ones.
Let me tell you, the whole "veil of secrecy" added a whole new fun-dimension to this photography project.
We did a series of four shoots for each grand-babe, so the lighting for each day was unique...just like the kids.  :)  LOVED IT!!

Meet Delilah...

She's got outstanding hair for a 4-year-old.  I'm almost jealous...in a Christian sorta way.  ;)


She loves swinging...


And is a natural when it comes to cuteness.  ;)

THIS...is Willam.

He's a lizard man.  I'm pretty sure he was chasing one in this photo.  ;)


He likes to talk.


And explore.  I can see this little fellow going places.  :)

May I introduce you to Gabriel?

The baby of the family at a year and a half old.

His interests include...

Walking constantly, gazing about in wonderment, and discovering hickory nuts.  ;)


He also seemed particularly fond of sitting in trees.

And lastly, we meet Grant.

The most physically coordinated 3-year-old this side of heaven.


He can run, jump, throw a soccer ball like a pro, and I'm told he can already ride a bike...NO TRAINING WHEELS!


Ah...and he'll be raised a Gator.  Win.  ;)

I shall now do something I've never done on this blog before. 
Leave you with a picture of myself on the job.  Kinda wanted to give you an idea of just HOW much fun I had with these kids during the months of secretive-photography work.  One particular shoot eventually found me inside.  The lad was playing and reading books.  Naturally, he thought I should join in his fun.  :)

So I did.  Yes, the picture is low quality, but hey, it was GRAND! Definitely a first! XD

Now that I've probably lowered my level of professionalism in some people's eyes, I shall leave you with a photo from William's shoot that has captivated me...forever, I'm afraid.  :)

I entitled it Peter Pan Feet.

Good evening to you, one and all!
