Here comes Peter Cottontail....

I'm running an Easter photography special this month and wanted to get a few snapshots of the bunnies we'll be using so I grabbed my Snappy and let her be in bunny heaven for a little bit. I'm so in love with these shots, I had to share!




This one is soooo my fave! I'm thinking it's vital that I blow this one up!





She loved it!

I can't wait for all the other adorable kids I'm going to be photographing with these fluffy bunnies!

i heart faces - Slice of Life

Posted by Robin . on Sunday, March 27, 2011, In : i heart faces challenges 
This week's photo challenge over at i heart faces is "Slice of Life".



It took me a while to go through my pics for this one. A "photojournalistic approach" is something I've been trying to work at, especially at gatherings, events, parties, etc. The photo I chose is one I took at a recent First Birthday Party Session I shot. This pic of the kids going crazy on the bouncy castle just kind of epitomizes a kid birthday party for me.

Our First Vacay - Part Two

Posted by Robin . on Friday, March 25, 2011, In : Photography 
When we got to San Antonio, we snagged a hotel within walking distance of the Riverwalk and headed on down to scope things out.

After walking

and walking

and walking

and, you guessed it, walking some more....

We grabbed a bite to eat, found an awesome little shop where I eventually ended up buying dresses for Snappy and myself and hit up Ripley's and the wax museum.

Snappy was not happy about those last two stops.

She was totally freaked out. Except for when 0007 took her through this tunnel thin...

Easing their fears

Posted by Robin . on Wednesday, March 23, 2011, In : Favorite Things 
I don't normally do this. But, being as this is sometimes a "Mommy Blog" (ugh. I hate that label.), I really wanted to share something with y'all.

The following is from my Giveaway page. It's a product that I really think every child should own and every parent will love. Check it out and if you'd like to enter to win one, head over to the giveaway.

As parents, easing our children's fears and anxieties is something we all want to do. Whether your child has only experienced missing y...

Our First Vacay - Part One

Posted by Robin . on Monday, March 21, 2011,
So, Snappy will be four this summer and we have seriously not taken a vacay since she's been around. It was time. This year, since TRex is in school, Spring Break was actually a big deal so we decided to take a couple of days and get away. We live a little over an hour from San Antonio. For you non-Texans, that's where the Alamo is. They've got an amazing downtown area called The Riverwalk, tons of fun stuff to do and an utterly awesome zoo (that the kids had never been to). We set out on Fri...

Jumping back in and looking ahead

Posted by Robin . on Tuesday, March 15, 2011, In : Photography 
Well, after two weeks of dealing with sickness in our home, everyone is well and we are thoroughly enjoying Spring Break. (Which means, I'm thoroughly enjoying sleeping late.) Seriously, school needs to start at 10 or 11. I don't know how I'll switch back to getting up early.

We've got plans to head up to San Antonio next weekend and hit the zoo and Riverwalk. Definitely looking forward to that. Snappy is nearing 4 years old and we have yet to take even a mini-vacay. I know. It's ridiculous. ...

i heart faces Photo Challenge 3-14-11

Posted by Robin . on Monday, March 14, 2011, In : i heart faces challenges 
This week's challenge over at i heart faces is a really cool one. Sun flares are one of my favorite things to capture. It can be tricky to schedule a session at just the right time of day and in just the right place to catch the perfect sun flare while also getting a full reel of shots that are also wonderfully lit. It was really difficult for me to pick my favorite one for this week's challenge.



So, here we go. My entry for this week's "Sun Flare" challenge with i heart faces.



This was defin...

Today's image was really fun. It's definitely an image that is very much my style and it instantly screamed to me that it needed to be dirtied up. I like grungy editing with images like this and purposely take them often for that purpose.

Here is the original im...
