Blog. Bloggy. Blog. Blog.

Thank you for stopping by the blog today. This is where you find me rambling on about weddings, recent sessions, life and coffee. You know... the important stuff. :) To the left you will see one of my favorite pictures I have of my daddy and myself. I love how a picture can tug on the heart strings, bring back sounds, smells and feelings, and I strive to capture images for others that do just that! So enjoy and leave some love.

Snapshots of My Life {O’Fallon IL Photographer}

Posted on October 9, 2009

I get all kinds of comments on my work. And many times I have clients say, “Your house must be full of beautiful pictures of your kids.” I always laugh when I hear this. As much as I try I cannot photograph my own children. The camera isn’t a novelty here, it’s a way of life for my family. Where mom is, there is a camera near by. I have scads of wonderful true to life photographs of my children, and I love all them. But do I have beautiful portraits that would amaze and wow my clients on my walls? No. I try every year and I still have my fingers crossed that this is the year they amaze me. I can envision the picture I would love to have in my head, as I do with each client’s session. But if I am able to round them up and actually execute it, well that we will have to wait and see. Wish me luck as I am hoping that this is the year, maybe even this week, that my dream portrait will be captured and proudly displayed on my walls.

Here is a typical response when I get the camera out.

boys blog silly
