Exciment!-Week 15, 365 Project

Candy!!!

Super excited about the gunk he found in the stream!

Didn't mean to be a creeper, but what is more exciting when you are young than a make out session?!?

Week 15 is titled "Excitement!" Although I am a few pictures short of a week I am going to post these for now. I may add to this week later, but I will decide that at another point in time.

365 Continued? Week 14 'Reflections'

 Last January I decided to start a 365 project. I delegated every week a theme to keep it "easier" and attempted to stick with taking the pictures and then updating my blog. However, between work, grad school and my internship I got a bit behind. These pictures are not new. They were taken last year for the week on "Reflections." Although I feel that I have progressed quite a bit with my photo skills I still want to give these images a chance to be seen. So here they are!

Another day, same model...

I am fortunate to have a beautiful family. With that said I would expect to see many pictures of my sister Kellen popping up on my blog. As state in previous posts I am eagerly making the transition from being a more static shooter to a more well-rounded shooter, which would include living breathing models. My sister is a very talented fashion blogger, see her style here, and is a very willing model. Enjoy!

Baby Showers...

Last year was the year of the wedding, but I believe that this year will be the year of the babies. The showers and festivities began this weekend with my Aunt's baby shower for Hunter. He is due in a few weeks and I can't wait to take his first few pictures!!!

Hannah, the soon to be cousin of Hunter, was singing for all of the guests. She covers her eyes while singing.

These were some AMAZING cake pops! Must say, the best I ever had!

Monkeys are the theme of Hunter's nursery.

No Words Needed

A Day at the Races

Won some money off of this duo

Alan and I enjoying watching the horses walk onto the field

My mother and her husband's family have a tradition of going to the Santa Anita Race track on New Years Day. This was the first year my boyfriend and I joined. Although we did not win any money, we definitely enjoyed ourselves immensely and will return next year!

New Year, New Lens

I am blessed. I have a family and boyfriend that are very supportive of my hobby/obsession. For Christmas I received a new Canon lens for my camera, one that I thought would always be in my dreams, but never in my reality. I have been using this lens on everything and anything. Below are a few samples of the random pictures that I have been taking. I do not see this lens coming off my camera body anytime soon. I hope you enjoy these images as much as I do!

These pictures were for my younger sister's fashion blog, http://kellen-andsoitgoes.blogspot.com/

Other than the photo with the watermark, none of these photos were edited. I am very impressed with the way this lens captures the light and gives each photo such a professional feel. I look forward to showing you all more pictures throughout the new year.

HAPPY 2012 EVERYONE!!!
