Trash the Cake

A friend of mine from when we lived in Georgia is now living in Japan and working as a photographer, we recently got back in touch and I looked at her pictures, one was lots of fun, trashing the cake with a cute baby attacking his birthday cake. I decided with a one year old in one week that we would give it a try. It turned out really cute. I think I definately have a girl because it took some coaxing to get her to attack the cake, but she finally decided to dig in.Let me know what you think. ALS

Family photos

Over Christmas vacation my family finally got a family picture together, it's been years. I think since my mission that we actually took one, so getting us all together was a big deal, thanks to my sister-in-law who let me borrow her tripod since I forgot mine at home, these pictures turned out wonderful. My Dad and brother own a construction company and my parents have always wanted a picture on the equipment. This was the perfect opportunity. Let me know what you think! ALS

Fun Portraits

In setting up for today's photo shoot, I was testing the light and got it a little strong, but with a little tweak in photoshop, changed from color to black and white, this is what I got. I like the almost drawing like quality of these pictures, I think I'll set this up for my older kids. Let me know what you think. ALS
