Every now and again I like to share a little sneak peak into my life! 
This is one of my new favorite pictures. Here is why: 

1. This is our new place that we moved into this summer...so we don't have many pictures of it.
2. This basically describes our family unit perfectly...the two of us...and our cats whom we love. Lady Grey is the gray cat at the bottom, and our newest member of the family is Gallifrey up in the left corner. We got him this summer as a stray when he was just 6 weeks old. 
3. My favorite part is that this is the closest these cats have ever been. Yes, they are both asleep, but they currently still hate each other. Gallifrey is the most obnoxious cat I've ever met, so I can't blame Lady Grey for hating him. That being said, in this photo you can't tell that Lady Grey growls whenever the kitten gets within 10 yards of her....or that they wake us up at night fighting...or that on multiple occasions we've found huge tufts of gray hair in Gal's mouth. 

So there you have it, our little family!

The J Family

Now this is one good looking family! Rachel has been one of my good friends for quite sometime. When we both lived in Lincoln while we were in school we actually spent one summer sharing a farmers market booth. She is fantastic, a wonderfully artsy individual who I envy for all of her great talents! Her family is just as wonderful! First, I'm always impressed when little boys do well in photo shoots. We had lots of great smiles, and very few bribes from mom to keep them in a good mood :)  I was so excited when they asked me to photograph their family for a Christmas card. We had a wonderful day at the park, I wouldn't even call it work! 

Zavier- 1 year

This weekend was the last of Zavier's photos for his first year! I've been photographing this little guy every couple months since he was in his mommy's tummy....and it has been so fun to watch him grow! The basketball themed photo shoot this weekend was the perfect way to celebrate turning one year old! 

Lens Investment

I regularly have clients that come to me asking what equipment they should invest in to take better photos. Many families now have an SLR camera (single lens reflex...one of those cameras where the lenses are screwed off/on and the mirror inside makes a click sound when you take a photo). One of the best investments you can make after buying an SLR, is a good prime lens. Now, you may not know this, but I shoot with Canon. Typically photographers are either Canon or Nikon...and the equipment is not interchangeable . If you are a Canon user, I suggest you invest in a Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens . This lens runs around $120, and is fabulous. It is one the cheapest (if not THE cheapest) Canon lens you can buy. It is fabulous and you'll still find me using it on occasion.  Here are a few examples of photos I've taken with that lens.  It is also the first lens I would suggest that you purchase if you're looking to try to shoot in Manual Mode. It gives yo...
