Midnight Madness 12/03/10

So, I'm off by a few days... just switch the "3" and the "0" and it's all good... ha ha ha  This is what happens when you move in December!  On the third my husband and I took a stroll down to Historic Ellicott City after I finished a family photo session at the new home studio... which happens to be just up the road from Main Street.  It was a cold night, but we grab a hot latte and started our journey.  We both got some great shots.  My husband is becoming quite the photographer himself!  We really tried to capture the holiday sprite of the shop's window displays.  The sidewalks were busy and everyone was in the holiday sprite.   Enjoy, and if you've never been try making it down next year!

        

  

12/21/10 The Lunar Eclipse

At 1:15 this morning my husband and I went outside to see the beautiful Lunar Eclipse.  We set the timer and went out every 15 minutes till 4 am!  These photos were  not altered just straight from the camera.  It was worth the snow and freezing temperatures to capture these breath taking images.  When the Eclipse comes around again in 3 years, it will be interesting to see how my work has progressed.  Here are a few of my favorite shots.  Enjoy the slide show and I'd love to hear feedback on these photos.

The last photo was taken the night before and I just love it so I had to add it!

Holiday Session in the New Studio

Last night I shot my first session in my new home studio.  We have barley moved in so photos and video will follow once I'm done creating the space.  Melissa brought her family out in this very cold December night and we captured some great shots.  I went to high school with Melissa and the power of "facebook" reconnected us.  I loved that she picked the color purple (it is my favorite) it really looked great on all of them!  Her daughter wants to become a photographer and had some great ideas for poses.
