Mark Holt 2016

Last night I got a chance to take pictures again for a close family friend Mark Holt. He is a musician and travels all over to preform. It was awesome to listen to him play his guitar as I took shots. I am only posting a few from the fifty some that turned out, just so the rest are a surprise. Here are a few of my favorites. We went all over the town last night, even into some scary downtown places for just the right look. Overall my favorites are the coral wall ones and the ones taken with the chair.

Mikalah and Emily.

This is my friend Kayla and her beautiful little girl Emily. I have known Kayla almost all of my life. We don't see each other very often but when we do we pick right back up where we left off. She is a single mom and works her skinny little butt off to provide and make a wonderful life for Em. I am so proud of her and it was an honor to take these pictures for her. I took these out at Spalding park. I thought more flowers would be in bloom but the Lewiston heat had already killed them off, regardless I am happy with them. 

Tallies Fairytale Session.

Tallie was kind enough to help me with a school project a month or so ago. We did a themed session and went with fairytale. It was a lot of fun. I took these at the Vets Home Park. Its a beautiful park and always offers some great spots for pictures. Here are a few of my favorites. I hope you enjoy.

What I have been up to lately.

Seems like forever since I have updated either of my blogs. I have been crazy busy. First with the end of semester, then we moved again to a new and much larger place, and now I am working full time. It hasn't left me with a lot of time to be creative. I did have a chance during the school semester to take a few pictures sessions. I did one for my photography class, which if you can believe it I hated. It felt to structured and basic. The one I did for that class I had the help of my good friend Tallie whom I have taken pictures for before. We decided to do a themed photo shoot so we went for a fairytale theme. The other set that I did was for a friend from high school and her daughter. We did a mother daughter shoot and I could not have had more beautiful subjects.

I have a photoshoot I am doing tomorrow and I am super excited. I have done pictures for him before when he did the Subaru shoot years ago. His name is mark and he needs new PR pictures done. Its going to be great.

As far as being more creative goes from my last post, I have been trying. I have been cooking a lot more. New recipes, ones that are challenging and something that I never thought to try. I am enjoying my new large kitchen very much just for that reason. I have also been working to finish my book. It has only been a year since I started it and I am so close to the end I can taste it. But once I finish then I get to do a rewrite and have it edited. Those things scare me because then someone will have to read it and critique it. I just have to remember that its something I created, something that makes me feel powerful and worthwhile, if only one other person ever likes it then I will feel like my job is done. So I guess that about wraps it up. I will post my sessions today in their own posts so you can see what I have been up to.
