Can't Help Lovin' That Man o' Mine

My wonderful husband was the driving force this weekend in efforts to turn Ian's old bedroom into a functioning studio.    

It was one of those things I just haven't been able to get off the ground until now, but we are finally making some very good progress.  Guess it helps to have an engineer around who is into project management.   I picked up the camera and shot this just as we were starting to paint.   For some reason, he is the hardest person in the world for me to photograph, but I kind of liked this shot.  

 Thanks to Mike, we're gonna finally Git er Done!

The original to this photo was a simple sweet image.  Two people, fully dressed and sitting upon a beautifully-made bed.  Once I added some different treatments  and silhouetted the couple, it just came alive.

Adelaide LUBS her "daddy" and so do I.

Mike is a wonderful father for all of our kids -- his, mine, and the fuzzy little characters that we can claim as "ours."  Happy Fathers Day to all the men who help shape the generations that will follow.

Run to Mommy!

The serendipity of this image was just too good to be true.  I was taking one-year-old birthday pictures in this little guy's bedroom.  He had taken a step or two, and was very good at walking with push toys -- but he hadn't actually walked on his own yet.  When I heard his mother's "Oh my goodness, look at you walking all the way across the room all by yourself!"  I just started shooting. Because I had been doing tight shots only moments before, this zoom was inevitable.  I feel so honored to have been in the room for these first real steps, and love the motion in this shot.  Look out world, here he comes!

I'm almost hesitant to post this, because mom and dad haven't seen it yet, but I can't pass it up.  My baby gift to Dustin's cross country coach was a session for newborn photos.  With  a baby this tiny and beautiful and two parents who love him so much, you just can't go bad.  Well . . . maybe we flinched when he tinkled on mommy blouse during the naked baby pictures, but we'll  handle that with photoshop and a hearty laugh.  Welcome beautiful baby boy!
