I got brave and decided to venture out and take my own kids to frolic in the bluebonnets and capture them. The light was so pretty, all warm and glowing. And they did awesome. It reminded me that I need to take them out for photos together more often. I’ve been seriously slacking in that department, relying on my iphone and Samsung 300nx (which I looooove btw). Life is busy. Jonah is uber busy lol. They were awfully good to me this night. The first photo, is just so them, their personalities embodied. And the last one WILL be big in my house somewhere. […]

But I get bored with my house and the light. I know all the good spots and the places I need the kids to be in so I can get good lighting and a good shot. Sometimes, being stuck inside these walls is just, the same, uninspiring, blah spot. This tends to hit me the hardest in January, when I actually have time, since September and the beginning of busy season, to actually capture my own kids. It’s also cold and heading out to capture them somewhere more […]
