| G O – A G G I E S | I love everything about these two. Aren’t they a beautiful couple?? AND to top it off, they are/were both Aggies! That makes them even better. I can’t wait to shoot their wedding here in a few months. So, yes…you’ll get to see more of these two lovely faces soon.

Happy Birthday Jack

We took Jack and all of his buddies rock climbing for his birthday this year. It was hilarious to watch these kids. We didn’t break anything or loose anyone, so it was a success. These kids are awesome and so much fun (and a little rambunctious)!!

Whitney + Ryan

| B R I D A L S – G R O O M A L S | Here is a sneak peak of some of our Kansas City friends who are getting married in the Winter Quarters Nebraska Temple next month!!! I had so much fun with these two. I’ve actually known Whitney for 7 or 8 years now. Ryan and I used to hang out at her parents house when we lived in Kansas City. More pics coming soon…

Yep, It’s Time

So, a couple of years ago I decided to learn how to use my camera so that I could take better pictures of my own kids. I fell in love with photography. I also jumped into taking pictures for other people and it quickly became a little bit of a business. It has been so wonderful and also super busy at times. Last November I did 12 family sessions in one month! A lot of times I find myself too tired to want to take pictures of my own kids. Ha!! Can anyone else relate with that? So, I’ve decided to take a little break. I won’t be scheduling any sessions anytime in the near future. For any of you who have already booked a session/wedding with me for this year (or prepaid for a session), I’m planning on doing those!!!

I hope to turn this blog into a photography journal where I can share tips, things I’ve learned, and of course all the photography projects that may come my way (including those of my kids). Hopefully in the next day or two I’ll post a tutorial on how to make a professional printed family album (large coffee table book style).

xoxo, Leah

Max 6 months old + Recipe

Leah — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 18:26:40 +0000

Our little guy Max. We finally found out that his crazy breathing problem (need for supplemental O2 + monitor) is actually a severe case of apnea. He’ll probably grow out of it when he is one year old. 6 more months to go…the little stinker.

Should I laugh or should I cry?

I thought I would include the “recipe” that I used for these photos.

Used stamp tool in Photoshop to fix blemishes, etc
Used TRA’s “Pro retouch” @ 50% to smooth skin and pop eyes
Josh De Rox’s “Morning” @ 40%
Josh De Rox’s “Memory of a Friend” @ 10%
Josh De Rox’s “Blueberry Night” @ 10%
TRA2′s “Sharp Like a Ninja” @ 60%
