Portraits of Jennifer

Mark's sister asked me to take some portraits of her for her husbands birthday next month. I had some free time on Mother's Day (that's what you get for moving so far away, Mom!) so I shot these at my in-laws house! Man, I love natural lighting!

The cutest God-neice ever!

I am an only child. The closest thing to a sister growing up was my mom's best friends daughter, Michele. She was a few years older than me and I wanted to be just like her! In a lot of ways, I was. I played soccer like Michele. I joined a sorority like Michele.

Michele had a daughter last year named Lisa. Even though they live only a few hours away in LA, I didn't get a chance to meet Lisa until recently. Michele asked me to take some photos of her and I wanted to share them with you.

I wanted to use natural light to shoot Lisa, but with her being sick and napping schedule off, I had to resort to bouncing my flash off of every surface available. Considering my limitations on light, I'm happy with how these turned out!

She's gonna be a soccer player just like her Mommy and God-sister!


Lisa and her Daddy, Darin.


Look at this face!!!


Now I have more reason to get up to LA - to shoot my gorgeous new model!
