The Beautiful Sky on Nov 2nd






Kansas does not have mountains or an ocean but we do have beautiful sunsets.
I am very fortunate where I live to have a great view of the sunsets from my back yard.
The following are a few shots of last nights beautiful sky.
A couple of them are just as it was straight out of the camera the rest I enhanced in photoshop.

Lydsey's Senior Session







Lynsey's Senior session was really special. She lives right next to her grandparents out in the country. Her grandparents planted the sunflower patch especially for her senior picture session. The corn field and the pond is on their farm as well. I have fun playing with different effects on some images.... The truck images are examples of how the same image can look so different.

A FEW FUN IMAGES OF MY BACKYARD




Keep your eyes open .... fun images can happen anywhere... even in your own back yard!

I was sitting on my back deck yesterday. It had been raining.... The clouds were just starting to break up allowing a little bit of sunlight to shine down into my pasture. There was quite a bit of fog still in the air giving these images a kind of dreamy look.

VACATION!































My kids and I took a little time off and went to visit my brother and his family at Lake Cumberland in Kentucky. It is so pretty there and we had a lot of fun.  Here are some of the pictures from our trip!

Beauty And The Beast : )










I started photographing the beauty

( aka Brooklyn ) when she was 9 days old. She has always been dainty and beautiful and from the start she loved having her picture taken.

21/2 years later along came the ”Beast“ ( aka Liam). Although adorable in his own right

Liam is pure boy, he is big ( just as big as his sister who is over twice his age ), rough and tough and a dirt magnet. Liam is not so crazy about getting his picture taken but this time around he was just a little put out that his sister was getting so much attention while the focus was on her.

( see the “pouty” picture ) After a little coaxing... liam cheered up and we got some great shots of him too : )


One time when I was on the phone with the kid's grandma Dorothy, Dorothy turned to Brooklyn and said " hey Brooklyn I'm talking to Muffet. Brooklyn's response was " My Muffet? " I love that!
