Photo Challenge | On Your Feet


Well, we're all jumping in with both feet for this week's challenge over at IHeartFaces.  In this case, there is one ... showing that is!  This is my niece, and my two great nephews.  It's a joy to see the love between those adorable little brothers!

You can see more 'footwork' by clicking the link above, or the logo below the picture!  I'm headed over there now to see some, myself!  I'm so glad you dropped by, and I hope you all have a blessed week!

A Touch of Sun | I Heart Faces Weekly Photo Challenge






It's been a little while since I entered the I Heart Faces weekly challenge and I've missed it!  I really love the theme of 'A Touch of Sun', and all the amazing images you can see over there, this week!  I wanted to share an image from a recent senior portrait session .. my first to be honest!  It was nearing sunset, in the country, and when I brought this into LR3 and edited the original in color, I wasn't really happy with the result ... so I made it color-less.  It is quite a bit sharper this way, and she really liked it, as well.  To see some fabulous 'sun-lit' images, just click-n-go now!  Hope you all have a great week!  Fall is in the air here, and I'm lovin' it!

Gloria .... in a 'senior' moment!

A dear, sweet friend ... a beautiful summer day in the country ... and my camera = Gloria's Senior Session . 2011!  I must be honest and say, that this was my very first senior portrait session and I have to admit, I was just a bit nervous, but Gloria's kind spirit along with her bubbly personality, truly made it a joy!  We have known her family for quite sometime ... fifteen years to be exact, and I've watched her grow into a beautiful young lady.  Needless to say, I was very blessed that she had asked me to take these pictures for her.  Senior portraits are pretty important these days, and I prayed that she would be happy with them ... and, thankfully, she was!  The session went very well, with her mom and sisters along for ideas, and encouragement.  Gloria was a perfect 'subject' and as you will see, besides having the prettiest eyes, and smile, her hair was stunning!  Blonde and beautiful!  They live on a country road, and the setting was perfect!  Here are a few of my favorites .....





























































Well, there, you have it ... the session was almost over, and Gloria had just about run out of steam ... it was a very humid day, but she did have one perfect expression left!  Now, I do believe this one reminds me of a picture from an old, black and white, silent movie!  Ya think?! Lol!! 






And, finally ... these were the three adorable ladies I was so blessed to spend that afternoon with ... Hope, Mercy, and Gloria.  Thank you, ladies, for making my first senior photo shoot a success ... I couldn't have done it without you! 

You'll be seeing more of these ladies as time goes on!  I do want to thank you for dropping in ... it's such an encouragement to have you visit, and to read your comments!  Hope your weekend is blessed!  xoxo
