Little Leaguer

Here are a few pics of my mini session with my little leaguer. He is such a great sport! What a natural behind the camera, he came up with most of these poses by himself!

Waiting for Opening Day to begin.

His serious face. :)

His true smile! :)

This was his idea!

This was also his idea! I like it!

This is my idea (that I got from Marisa, a fellow photographer)

This was another one of Chris' ideas! See, he is a natural!

All out of ideas :) He was tired. Don't blame him. You can only take so many orders from mom.

52 week project! Week 9

Today was opening day for our little leaguer. This is his first year ever playing ball, and his coach has been pretty impressed with his skills, not to mention he is the 'class clown' of the team. :) I took a few pictures of Chris, but chose this one to be my project picture!

52 week project! Week 8

I actually learned something at the photography workshop and thought I'd try it out. Not bad for the first try. It's taking a motion shot without using the Sports mode on the camera. It gives an effect of action. I thought I'd change things up a bit by turning it b&w.

This is during our Saturday Bowl-A-Thon for little league. The boys had a great time. They were pretty competitive but had a blast!

52 week project! Week 7

I couldn't resist taking a picture of my sleeping beauty. She looks just precious holding her favorite crib toy. Every night we have to turn on the musical seahorse to get her to fall sleep. :)

I'm probably cheating by posting two pictures, but I couldn't decide on which one I liked better.

52 week project! Week 6

I took this picture during our trip to Disneyland yesterday. What I like about this picture is not only the beautiful tulips and their color, but that there is one flower that has just a single petal with both pink and white coloring. It was the odd ball of the tulips. Unique :)

52 week project! Week 5

Amy and I make adorable babies! LOL

Last Sunday we hung out at the Ketchum's in celebration of this little man's dedication to our Lord! :) Yay! Although I missed the actual dedication, we did get to spend more time with the family. Aren't they just precious?

52 week project! Week 4

Better late than never?

This isn't the picture I was wanting to post. I have been extremely busy lately. I should have had a picture posted by last Saturday!

I did take this picture last weekend, and wasn't too happy with it. I wanted Wookie's eyes to be sharper. My dog just wouldn't cooperate with me because he kept cowering at the camera. The one thing I did like about this picture is that my dog was actually lying down on his back looking at me, where as in this picture it looks as if he was sitting down looking straight up at me. I love camera tricks. Now only if the lighting was better :)
