My crazy cousins

I promised them that if they goofed of during our session, that I would share the outtakes with the world. I hold true to my promises. Boy did they goof. Sloppy kisses, silly faces, and middle brother even answered his cell phone mid shoot! We had a great time though, and baby brother posed wonderfully throughout it all!

Quite often I do show funny outtakes to clients. Personally I love the silly pictures that capture people just being who they really are! The last few pictures here do just that!

The two older boys were my very first "subjects" when they were small. They love to tease me about making them pose shirtless in a tree (they were cute pictures OK?!?) I also have a pack of snapshots of them where apparently I made them change clothes 10 times! Sorry I have tortured you for year boys, but you sure are cute!

A couple head shots

Here are just a couple head shots from a Easter session with 8 year old "S." She was such a pretty little girl, and very easy to work with! Check out the new purple backdrop, I love this one!

Tornado!

We were out, like many others taking in the damage that the recent tornado in our county has caused, and I brought along my camera to snap a few photos. Pictures #4 and 5 were actually a mobile home. The metal frame of the home was about 30 feet from where the home once was, and the rest of it was scattered out in a nearby field.

There were quite a few barns down, and major damage to other homes. Thankfully there were no serious injuries reported. I truly believe that God had his hand on the people of this county Friday afternoon. A elderly man, that is a old friend of the family, lives right in the path that the tornado decided to take. You can see the destruction where it came down a hill, over some mobile homes, damaging, and destroying them. It then headed to the mans barn and flattened it, but seemed, by surveying the destruction, to just lift up right before hitting his home. Amazing.

To those of you who have damaged property, or have lost your homes, our prayers are with you.
