I don’t get bellies often but when I do, they are the cream of the crop!
( I wasn’t kidding.)
There’s more where this came from…
Again. Not kidding.
A second shoot at the beach was totally called for.
Two thumbs up for perfect bellies!

Great day for a photo shoot… fun kids and overcast skies. What more could you ask for?
First up, Daddy’s little girl…
And Daddy’s (curious, spunky & friendly) little man…
He had no fear of the “tick grass” and neither did I of course.

First family photo in a tractor for me! (I told you they were fun!)

In case any of my fans were wondering, I DO travel worldwide for destination portrait sessions. For this one, my sister client flew me to Virginia to shoot promotional pics for their band/duo. Over a few days, we scouted out the most colorful locations colonial Williamsburg had to offer. Sadly no graffiti or giant murals but color, we found… A pretty blue…
A colonial red…
Yellow anyone?
Lovin’ the orange I am…
But it wasn’t ALL rainbows… 
There were railroads as well. (You can’t be in a band without a shot on the tracks ya know!)
Where to nex!? Anyone in Hawaii need an amateur photographer?!?

Man, what a bad blogger I am! I left for a visit to Virginia and haven’t quite caught up ever since.
For the sake of my sanity, here’s a quick re-cap of all the mini-shoots I did while there…
Hip Baby A in her BabyLegs…
This little guy wasn’t too sure of me… but curious nonetheless!
Had to win her over with a game of chase to get this cutie to smile…
Her baby sister with the most amazing eyes…
And their gorgeous big sister. All of them with beautiful hair!
Such a sweet peek-a-boo face!
These next two worked me to the bone. I think I clocked a couple miles of playground just trying to keep up!

Little brother finally stopped to smirk at me.

Feathers

Not a typical newborn shoot for me but this sweet and tiny baby girl tried her best to cooperate and I tried my best to accomodate Mom’s request for feathers! (But please don’t ask me to do it again!
)
We were going for the “sleeping like a baby” look but…
3 hours later, I still couldn’t convince her she was tired but she finally blinked for a split second to give us the illusion anyway.

Blue

I’ll get to the blue part in a minute but first…these two! They were very much into having FUN, and isn’t that how it should be?! No wonder I love these candid shots… fits them to a tee. 
And now for the monopoly on blue I was referring to… are you kidding me!?! (No, they are not.)
Okay, maybe she was kidding me… (I mean, come on !!)
I’ll spare your eyes being pierced by blueness anymore and leave you with another B&W to balance things out!
Your welcome.

Time for some random peeks into a rainy wedding day!
Hamming it up pre-ceremony… (you’d never know I was shooting from under an umbrella being held by the limo driver!)
The men take their turn while the rain gave us a breather…
And a quick candid… (wish I could’ve heard what he was saying!)
Thanks to Shannon & Carl for inviting me to be a part of their day!

Baby Love

Simply adored, wouldn’t you say?
These two B&W’s are my absolute favorites…
Plenty more adoring fans where that came from!
See what I mean?! There’s no shortage of baby love around here.
You can see why everyone’s so head over heels for him, such a handsome little squirt!
(The dog came in as a close second…)
A final favorite to share…

A 2 minute shoot
August 19, 2008 · 2 Comments
A friend wanted some pics of her niece before she high-tailed it and took off across country so I snuck in a couple of minutes of toddler time last I saw them. How could I go wrong with those baby blues and that unbelievable tow head?!?
I could’ve worked with her all day. Such a piece of cake!
The light was being so good to me, not even this sad face slowed me down!

More Miles

Kudos to all the blog commenting on my last post! Your reward? More pics of that sweet baby! Only problem is I’m suddenly having trouble with my picture sizes!? Errrr. Will try and fix in the morning.
*Update: Full gallery (and bigger pics!) are ready here: www.CapturedByJess.smugmug.com*
Anyway, this baby had the wiggliest feet I’ve ever seen. Who knew the foot shot could be so difficult? (Note to self: Save the feet for when the babe is sleeping.)
And since we’re focusing on body parts, how about this swirl of hair! All I can think of is van Gogh’s “Starry Night” when I look at this…
And just so you know, he exists in color too!
Of course, we couldn’t leave that big brother out of the post!
Happy commenting! No pressure.

is getting married next month and moving across the country shortly thereafter. We met up in her current hometown of Boston to take some photos for nostalgia’s sake.
Like where they first met for one.
And random fun spots for two.
And cool backdrops for three.
Happy trails you guys!

In need of promotional pics…
July 13, 2008 · 2 Comments
The last photo shoot I did with this young lady was a year ago when I was still stuck on automatic. This time, she was my first ever all manual mode shoot. I’m tired of using aperture priority as a crutch so I won’t do it anymore. I promise.
Anyway, we found this large set of cement blocks in the Wal-Mart parking lot and thought they made for a nice backdrop. Wouldn’t you say?
Just havin’ a little mural fun…

My half birthday wasn’t the only reason to celebrate on May 15th, it was also Kris & Mike’s wedding day! And somehow I ended up as their photographer!
(Forgive the random sampling of images I’m posting, they were the first ones I grabbed to process and I haven’t had a good chunk of time to work on more.)
