Desoto County Children's Photographer | Luken is ONE!

My baby isn't such a baby anymore.  He just turned one year old.  It is truly amazing at how fast time flies!  Here's my sweet Luken... I'll post a few more later.

A few more from the ice storm...

I love the colors of this first one and the way the light made the ice shimmer and sparkle.

Icy landscapes

Here are some images from our recent ice storm.  I was sure hoping for the 3-6 inches of snow- I am truly a kid a heart when it comes to playing in the snow, but the ice at least made a nice subject to photograph.  Brrr.....

Shapes, Lines, Form

I enjoy photographing just about everything.  I do believe that beauty can be found in just about anything; it's all in how you frame it.  Here are a few from my backyard.  So go get your camera and start framing what YOU see!

From our Family to yours/ Merry Christmas!

Our family wishes you bountiful blessings during this holiday season and into the new year! Merry Christmas!!  Joy to the World, the Lord has Come!

The next one below is a request from my 2nd Mom... she wanted an image of the kids in their Christmas outfits... 

Good Morning Sunshine

I admit it... I am lazy in the morning.  It takes me a while to fully wake up from a good nights slumber.  And I love to lay around cozy in bed while I do slowly wake up.  But, my kids rarely let me do that.  They are up and at 'em at the crack of dawn.  When the first rays of sun come peeking through the window, they are up and hungry and thirsty and needing this or that. 

 I secretly love when they come bounding in bed to snuggle up for a minute or two.  It is in these moments when I can count my blessings, just before another busy day begins and I have to  start thinking about all the things that need to get done that day.  Blessings.. here are one, two and three!!  And what beautiful light, that early morning light!

Recent Landscapes/ Psalm 19:1

"The heavens declare the glory of God, the skies proclaim the work of his hands." Psalm 19:1    When I first started photographing, I was always drawn to landscapes. I was intrigued by the way light played on particular parts of the whole, making something otherwise ordinary become something extraordinary. I find myself equally interested in photographing people now, if not more so, but landscapes will always hold a special place in my heart. It is in the middle of the woods where I feel like I am most walking in the presence of the Lord and that He is showing me these tiny secret spaces of His handiwork.  It is amazing to me too that all these images have different feels to them, yet they all were taken in a 2 mile circumference around a lake!
