(I wrote in a previous post about bracketing and high dynamic range [HDR] photos, but this actually isn’t one of them–the mountains in the background were under shadow, so no bracketing was needed, and the spot of sunlight over us gave Sarah’s hair that angelic glow!)

I am buried under a mountain of images–in the last two days I did a newborn session, headshots, family photos, and even some engagement photos! Lots to share in the days to come…

It usually breaks my heart, because if there is ever (a) a girl wearing a wedding dress or (b) a pretty girl with dark hair, Will mistakes her for his godmother and says “Nan-nan?” and points at the screen.

When he saw this one, though, he said “ZOOM! ZOOM!”

This is Stephen, one of the twins whose senior portraits I shot Sunday. It was something very different for me, because they wanted to include their new passion for motorcycles into the shoot. I was totally game–I love trying new things!

Stephen really wanted to do his first burn-out in one of the photos, and at the very end of the session his mother (whose bike he was riding) gave in…and here’s the photo! His sister was a little worried that it would be the last we’d see of the bike and her brother, but I’m happy to say that everything went according to plan and this is the proof!

Why a girl this pretty would stall on her senior portraits is a mystery to me!

I have two weddings coming up this weekend, so the plan is to rest this week. Rest and get two cavities filled. I mean rest, get two cavities filled, and floss regularly.
