The daugther of a photographer never gets a break

Sorry baby girl, I just can’t help myself. You are too cute, and I can always use the practice. Don’t be afraid of letting me into your house (messy or not!). Promise I’ll find somewhere to get a good capture. I had an outdoor shoot today and I think it was my last of the …

Autumn layout

I had a little help with this layout. Tuesday made the painting (bigger than this and I trimmed it down). I swore I took pictures of her stamping halved apples and smearing around paint with her fingers but I guess I didn’t. Ah sometimes the days run together, don’t they? 🙂 This turned out pretty …

Reclaiming my artistic self
