A fun Maternity Shoot





Ok, so it's been a while since I last posted, and for that I apologize. I also have a bit of a backlog to get through, but I suppose that is always going to happen when you wait... and wait... and wait.
Anyway, to the task at hand. On the day of our shoot, everything looked beautiful. The skies were clear, the weather was warm, and it looked like we were in for a perfect maternity shoot at sunset. Really, I should have learned by now to never be that naive. As we approached the coast we found that the clouds were rolling in along with the wind, so the whimsical sundress was a tad on the cool side when we got there.
However, we decided to tough it out, and were richly rewarded by some dramatic skies, which you will see in one or two of the shots. The rest, well, they really like clear skies, so I was very thankful that Lightroom could come to the rescue and really bring out the blues in the sky.

As always, you can find more of the pictures on the website:

There's a first time for everything

So, here I am, wondering what on earth to say next. Hmmmmm... oh wait, I know!

Hi!

That seems like a pretty good starting point, don't you think? It's a solid, short, sweet and to-the-point type of greeting, with plenty of spunk added by the all important "!". Without it, the greeting would feel bland, non-committal, blah. With it however, and you are treated to a veritable feast of energy and vibrancy. So I shall say it again, Hi! Hello! Welcome to my brand-new, never-before-seen blog, where all shall be made clear, or at least not quite as muddy.

So, with this being a photography blog and all, I should probably at least begin to mention something photo-related, right? Wrong! I should definitely mention something photography-related. Did that do it for you?
No?
Drat. Ok, how about this... coming up in May is a wedding that I'm really looking forward to - it's going to have a live band, it's going to have bagpipes, and it's all going to start on the beach and end at a resort. What more could a photographer ask for? Maybe some engagement shots that could potentially be happening in wine country?
Yes, life is good, and I'm looking forward to many, many more happy posts to come.
