 We found this mask that we totally loved at a little shop in Solvang last summer, and I haven’t quite known what to do with it so it’s been sitting in my “to shoot” pile ever since. But you know how we love masks, so we had to find something! While I was brainstorming the […]  For our Creativity blog circle this month, our concept was to shoot through glass. For once I had a million ideas, but it was a busy month and so I was only able to make one of them happen. This image is kind of a sneak peek of a concept shoot I did as part […]  Every year since her first birthday, Emily has woken up to balloons on her bed—one balloon for every year. It’s getting more crowded every birthday, of course, but still Tom and I have fun doing it late in the night each April 29th (or 30th!)! But this year in particular (maybe because I’m all too […]  Since we got annual passes this year, Disneyland photos will likely make up a large part of my blog posts through next February! I broke this trip into two parts, because I was determined to use my Lensbaby for a lot of it, so those photos are in this post. Emily’s kitty helped us pack […]  My first Through the Lensbaby Blog Circle post, and I am so excited! Since I am determined to master my Lensbaby, I decided for two days of our trip to Disneyland to use ONLY the Lensbaby. I chose the Sweet 35 optic so I could more easily change the aperture on the fly, and then […]
 I am working really hard to learn how to master the Lensbaby. The look it gives is so soft and dreamy, so I just love it! And it forces me to slow down and really focus on my shooting, which is a good thing. This time I played with the macro attachment on the Double […]  This month we worked on using garage light in our portrait blog circle. Garages are interesting because they tend to be mostly dark, but with one side of full light. This gives you much more dramatic light since it is so directional. And a particularly tricky part, with my garage, anyhow, is that it is […]  This month our Creativity blog circle’s theme was to shoot from an interesting, unique perspective. And this month I learned, once again, that I am not good at thinking outside the box. Everything I tried that seemed unique or interesting in my head just looked really lame, confusing, or awkward (sometimes all three at once!) […] |

I love these! Green is so her color!
Amazing Jessica!!!! Love how the mask brings out the color in her eyes. That light is just a dream too.
I love the combination of the back lighting and the LensBaby! Gorgeous!
I always look forward to your posts! I love the last two with the lensbaby…especially the very last one. She is totally rockin it! It’s the coolest shot and her eyes are to die for!
In a word….gorgeous!!! Your daughter is so beautiful and I am jealous of her hair color. I am also loving her eyes in that mask. I think the last is my fav too. Love the light in her hair!
STUNNING!!!! The light is amazing. LOVE that last shout SO much.
These are beautiful, you’re right the colors and light all came together perfectly. The first Lensbaby image is wonderful – kept be coming back for more looks:).
[…] including for my portraits blog circle where Emily and I played with a little green mask to capture sunflare and backlighting, and then again on my not-so-little girl’s 14th birthday. But one day this month my friend […]
