Lone Tree

Good afternoon and Happy Easter Eve!

I enjoyed the last week off from school and wish I had brought my camera to FL.  This summer I plan to take it with me and set up some appointments with friends to take photos of all the children I know!  I am so excited to get this going and cannot wait to see how all of my work turns out.  I have a lot of friends and family who have BEAUTIFUL children (teens too!).  I will post the dates we are coming home soon.

Today I passed by this HUGE tree that sits between two fields.  I have passed by it hundreds of times.  I have always wanted to take photos.  Today was THE day.  I passed by it and went straight home and said I'm doing it.  Grabbed the camera and went back.  I didn't realize there was a little road in between the two fields right by the tree.  I will upload my pix to my Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Wall-Photography/151496851571779).

Photo Shoot for Kadi Fit

Hello friends!  Life is good!  How about you?  I am currently working Full Time through the end of the school year.  AMEN!  I have been in a photography 101 class that was AWESOME.  Thanks Mike Homan (http://www.homandesigns.com/)!  The photo class was just what I needed to relearn the info I had previously learned in 15 years ago.

Last week I was give the opportunity to take photos for Katie Dixon, owner of Kadi Fit (http://www.kadifit.com/blog/).  Please go to my Facebook page to see more photos (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Wall-Photography/151496851571779)

Creative Movement Class 

 Hip Hop Class

I took the Hip Hop Performace photos on Tue and realized I had not practiced too much with action photography.  I did a little in class but my main focus had been candid portrait or architecture.  I didn't have to worry too much about buildings moving.  :)  It was a little challenging for me with the movement but I enjoyed it more than I thought I would.  I cannot wait to take more photos.  I really loved the Hip Hop class and the children's choice of clothes and colors.  It was so much fun to open up the photos and make changes.  I did find that my photos seem to be a bit grainy (if that is a word).  I will have to learn more and find out if it's something to do with the editing or with the photo taking itself.  

I of course loved taking photos of the Creative Movement class (younger kids) -- my daughter is in that one. However the older children have so much personality with the Hip Hop Class.  

Thank you Katie Dixon for the opportunity to take photos.  I also want to say Katie has been a great inspiration for me.  She was the start up push behind me wanting to push myself to make my passion my career.  Katie did this for herself and is a role model for myself.  Love you Katie!  

ALL MY FRIENDS and FAMILY....

Let me know when you want your Spring photos taken.  I would love to set up a time for some candid shots of your children.  

Blessings,
