Photo Contest: Winner!

The votes have been tallied, and this amazing picture is the winner! Here is the story:

When I think of Spring, I think of baseball! I took this picture last spring when Easton (now age 9) had a game. I 
thought the blue sky, red mountains and perfect clouds were oral perfection... Not to mention the cute kid! --Shelly

Photo Contest: Easter/Spring

Spring is in the air! As we prepare to celebrate Easter, or, even just celebrate the warmer weather, I challenge you to take a picture of something that represents Spring or Easter to you. With Spring, comes new life and new outlooks on life. But, it doesn't have to be that deep. It could just be something you love about Spring or Easter. DUE MARCH 23rd BY MIDNIGHT!!!! You have one week to turn them in to blackhatphotographs@gmail.com. 

These are Cadbury Eggs. These are my husband's FAVORITE Easter candy! Also, they are currently the only thing in my house that is either Spring-y or Easter-y. (Unless you want to go deep and say that my adorable 2 month old son counts, cause he would!)

Should you be the lucky winner of this contest, you will receive this fun, little, decorative frame! 


So, there you go! You have your challenge. You have your prize. Get to it! Get out there and get me some Spring/Easter pictures!

Nixon Family

This is the Nixon Family. We shot their pictures in December at Wheeler Farm. Such a fun little family!








Sara's Head Shots

Some of you may recognize Sara from some Head Shots I did for her a couple of years ago. Of course, her hair was much longer then. And, my skills have greatly improved since that last session! She is so beautiful!

My Head Shot special ($20 for 10 images) is running through the end of March! Contact me asap for your shoot!





Potts Family

I found some shoots I had forgotten to post, what with the holidays and having a baby and all, so now I am playing a bit of catch-up. Here it goes:

This is the Potts Family. We had a great shoot Thanksgiving Day at Wheeler Farm! So much fun scenery up there! I hadn't been there in years. Gorgeous family!

Scott and Carly

Scott and Carly were married in December in the middle of a snowstorm. It made for some nice pictures, and some fun challenges.






One thing that was unique and very fun about this reception was that Carly and her sisters all play the violin, so they played a rendition of the Pachelbel Canon with three violins, it was awesome!
