My gorgeous sister. With my 93 year old grandmother’s hat on and some scrubby clothes after playing with my kids all day outside. No makeup and so pretty. Continue Reading →
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. That’s all I can say. Thank you Chris and Kali for the hour of beautiful dresses, dark silky hair, almond dark eyes and smiles. We are blessed to be family in the Lord. Continue Reading →
Juicy cheeks and big buckeye brown eyes. Bubbles, books, water and all of the goings on at a busy park. She couldn’t wait to get on the playground after our photoshoot. Continue Reading →
Wispy earthy colored dress. Gorgeous figure and face. Freedom Park and all it has to offer. Noelle was quite the model, and it was so fun to interact with her. Continue Reading →
Ten tiny fingers. Ten tiny Toes. Precious Caleb James was a joy to hold. I can’t get enough of newborns. I’ve had some quality time with four of my own in the last 5 years, but still haven’t had enough. There is just something about the perfection of a fresh child. Continue Reading →
Shirley Temple in real life. She is too stinkin’ cute! Even her voice makes me giggle. Hannah Grace, I see modeling or anything involving a camera in your future. You and your mama are gorgeous! Continue Reading →
Oh my, these girls were so adorable! We drove together to Reedy Creek Park here in Charlotte, NC to check out their favorite location. Continue Reading →
I received the Canon EOS3 in the mail on Monday, twisted on my Sigma 30mm 1.4 and loaded a roll of Lomography 400 film and started shooting inside on manual and manual focus since I hadn’t calibrated the autofocus with my eyes yet. The results were poop! haha! $10 worth of poop!!!! Continue Reading →
I shot Collin on Saturday for a few minutes in NODA. It was fun to use some of the artsy walls as backdrops. He said he needed some portraits for business, casual and a nice shot for his mom (I thought that was cute). Continue Reading →
I found some Lomography Film on sale at Nordstrom and ordered 4 packs (12 rolls) for only $19.00 (free shippping). Thanks fancy department store for selling great film for cheap! Continue Reading →

The first two images are of Noah on the left side of the tree where the sun was peaking through a tree in front of him. I underexposed it 1 stop and edited in VSCO and added a couple actions in photoshop. Continue Reading →
I was given the location for the “Urban Barn” from a local photographer in here in Charlotte. The historic barn is right off of the road, so it’s not as secluded as it appears and sadly, while we were there, city workers were putting the posts in for a fence which will completely surround the structure. Continue Reading →
Our church has some very good teaching, not only from the pulpit, but from women as well. Women teaching other women the Word of God. The Anchor Study this year has been so good; we are studying 1Timothy and gaining a deeper love for the church. Continue Reading →
I guess having a blog where I am trying to document using film in photography and using the term “VSCO film” may be confusing to those who aren’t familiar. So this will answer all of your questions and show you the before an afters of using VSCO. Continue Reading →
So I had a breakthrough today!!!! Whoo hoo for learning things on my own in photography. I figured out that on a sunny day, when the sun is pretty high in the sky, early afternoon, or even noon; the best way to shoot a subject is for the subject to be backlit by the sun and the subject’s shadow is coming towards me. Continue Reading →
Our weekend at home in pictures, nice weekend of play, work, creating and 15 minutes of sunset window light. I am very much ready for spring and outdoor light. Continue Reading →
I was finally able to use a roll of the beloved Kodak Porta 400 film. Bought one roll for $9.99 and had it processed onto a disc for $7.50 at a local photo lab. I think it would be much more economical to buy in bulk and process in bulk so that I will only have to pay for one or two disks. Continue Reading →
My end goal is to buy a Contax 645 like my idols Jonathan Canlas, Becky Earl and now (a new favorite) Jose Villa have. Until that happy day comes, I might win the lottery first, I have some digitals to post of Luca. Continue Reading →
My mother and sisters and I had our second annual “girls weekend” in Charleston, SC. Last year we went to Highlands, NC and stayed at the Old Edwards Inn, gorgeous! It was a winter-wonderland the weekend we were there. Continue Reading →
My parents gave me a few rolls of film in my stocking for xmas. 2 rolls of Fuji 400. I think my mom said she found the last two on the shelf at Target, ha! The first one was a dud, still working on loading the camera. Continue Reading →
The name of this little coffee shop in downtown Charleston, SC. I don’t know the meaning behind the name but there was a different kind of atmosphere there. And the barista was so cute. Anyway, my sisters had been before and said we “had to go”. The froth on the latte was as thick as a marshmallow. Very good. Continue Reading →
A year in film is my vow for 2012. So long as my tiny piggy bank allows it, I will shoot film over digital as much as I can. I started in film like most people before digital existed. And took a course in college using my grandfather’s (who was a great photographer) Canon AE-1. Continue Reading →
