Last week I wanted to practice with some cool window lighting and my little nephew Ryker was a perfect model!

Fun Photos!

Here are my top favorites from a fun photo shoot I had last week. From now on I will be posting my latest photography stuff on my photographyblog at www.rcphotographysite.blogspot.com. But these turned out so cute, I had to post them here as well. I have another cute family I am doing on Friday, and can't wait to see what we come up with!

I GET IT!!!

So I finally feel like I "get it" when it comes to shooting in all modes of photography. I started self teaching about a year ago when I bought my first book on it and purchased my Canon and its been a very enjoyable yet also frustrating road. Because I didn't have a teacher to call on I spend hours re-reading and re-reading to try to get everything to sink in. Its exciting to feel like lights finally went on in my head. I feel that fun exciting satisfaction and joy I think my kids experience when they grasp a concept for the first time. Morgan once looked at me and gasped saying "MOM do you know that we use our ABC's to Talk?" So now for me it all about the creativity mode now. What Can I come up with next!

My Buddy Ry Ry!

This cute munchkin is my little nephew Ryker and our most recent buddy! We got to play with him this week and I captured this cute little drooley expression that we see quite often. He is only 5 weeks older than Chase and always reminding me of the cute new things Chase will be doing soon!

My Photography Biz Logo FINALLY!

I have been spending weeks and weeks in the creative mode trying to figure out what I want as my photography business logo. I wanted something catchy, creative, femanine, but not too girly, and something that can have a catch phrase. Plus there's only a million options, and colors, and fonts and YOU NAME IT! So to say the least my brain is tired. I have been driving Jared crazy getting his input, asking him to marinate on one thing after another. I first started out with flowers for a week or so, then Sunshine was my new kick for a couple of weeks, then I had the idea of Rainbows because everyone thinks rainbows are pretty. But nothing I thought of had a cute saying to go along with Life/Photography/Beauty or expressing how I feel about taking pictures. Well by golly I've GOT IT! I love Ah-HA Moments, and this was totally one of those moments. I found the Logo I wanted by hours and hours of searching and trying on all different kinds. My favorite part of the whole thing was Jared and I came up with the exact same saying. It was PERFECT. So here are a few repeat pictures just to showcase my logo in all its variations. Some day hopefully soon when I get my website designed, my logo will be on it and my catch phrase will be "RC PHOTOGRAPHY.......Life.....in all its Seasons"

A Fun Photo Shoot!

Yesterday was a GORGEOUS day with perfect natural lighting I just had to take advantage of it, and practice my latest learned skills. Unfortunately for them, my kids are my models and often get weary of being photographed. They were good sports though, and were most excited about the treat picking afterwards. I'm getting to the point now that I have to BRIBE them to pose for me and let me get pictures of them, which is sad because I love practicing and trying new things. Morgan on the other hand loves to pose and loves the attention. Anyone needing free family pictures or kid photos, let me know so I can practice on someone else for a change.
