Location Scouting {Austin Children Portraits}
Went location scouting with my girls.
"NO MORE PITURES" is their battle cry.
"If you weren't so cute, Mama wouldn't take so many pitures!" says me.
If you're interested in this location, let me know - I'm not sure how long it will be before they cut the grass!

Santa Fe Photographic Workshop Review
An entire week! All by myself? Well, with no one who yells, "Mama, are you going poo-poo?" in the public restroom. And, no one who can repeat "Brekfas yime" (translation Breakfast time) as many times as humanly possible?
OK, I may not have learned EVERYTHING I wanted to know about photography. But, I did get to go to summer camp with adults. I loved my classmates. I couldn't have asked for a more diverse, interesting and genuine group than this one. They were by far my favorite part. (And that's saying a lot because I didn't load a dishwasher once for 5 days straight - and that, was utterly refreshing.)
We got to play with light - reflecting, bouncing, creating. We learned lighting patterns so that now I can't look at an image without trying to determine it's pattern. We got to explore locations and new people. And, we got to practice on models who sit still! Very cool stuff!
so, I have to start with the Native American...it's NM!...

we were required to do a self portrait.
the rock is my amazing husband, who not only is my rock, but really likes rocks. i personally think he likes rocks because they are heavy and he likes to carry around heavy things - especially on long hikes.
like the hike back up the grand canyon (that rock was about 20 lbs - as if hiking down and up the grand canyon in a day isn't enough).
the fruit are our girls.
we hope the foundation we give them today will help them soar tomorrow.
well, it better not be tomorrow. maybe in 100 years when they are allowed to move out of the house.
here is one of my classmates who (whom?) I adore
and here is our super cool class
miss you all!
And, thank you to Blaine and Nana for taking such good care of our girls while I was away!!
