Father's Day!!

Father's Day was a fun time for daddy this year. I decided to make a special present for him. This meant lots of photographing time. We did a little bit of western pics, some "Blues Brothers" photos, and a few other odd and ends. The kids even got to beat on daddy in some. It was a lot of fun and I got to put together two great gifts for him.

Fairy Princess

I got the chance to try out my more "girlie" props recently on my niece Gabrielle. She is such a cutie, and was so much fun to photograph. Her mother just LOVED these photos. So I thought I might share a few with you! She looked adorable dressed up like a little Fairy Princess!

Western Photos

I recently purchased some new backdrops, and props for my Photography business. My baby sister loved the hats and offered to pose for pictures for me. I must say that she was a great model. She's a very beautiful young lady with a great complexion, so of course these "Western themed" photos turned out wonderful having her as a model for them. On the left is one of my favorites out of all the photographs I took. It was an "innocent" smile I took while she was playing with my window blinds.

On this picture I used purple for two reasons. Purple happened to go well with her shirt since it had purple in it, plus with her dark complexion the purple looked really nice behind her. Another reason....purple happens to be her favorite color. People tend to glow a little more I think when they are around colors they love.

 With this picture I used the nice solid black background. It's great for basically any type of photograph. I just love how she is looking down with her hand rested on her hand, and with the hat slightly covering her eyes. Gives that sultry look to the photo. The black and white just adds to the feel of that "naughty western girl"


Here are a few photos with my oldest two children I took of her. They are very precious, and show how even children can have fun with these style poses. Children really tend to love dress-up, and this allows them to do that...plus you get some terrific photographs in the process.

 

When in doubt...there's always time for fun in photos. I just love making sure that the photos I take are going to be ones that people will love for a lifetime. I have already had so much fun with these "Western" photos.....and would love to take even more.

If you would like to schedule a session to have some beautiful, priceless memories on photo. Please contact HLB Photography at hlbphotograhy28@yahoo.com for price lists.

Outdoor Time!

Now is the perfect time for outdoor/nature photos. Which flowers blooming everywhere, and the sun shining. I couldn't resist using this chance to take take some scenery photographs and outdoor fun pics. My first picture is of the two horses next to my mother's house. I felt it was a beautiful photograph of them grazing. The next two photographs are of my oldest two children, Lucas and Brandon, playing outdoors together. I love photographing them. They are very photogenic.

 These two photos are of the flowers blooming around my mother's home. They naturally grow wild, and make her home look even more beautiful during spring time.

These next photos are some great spur of the moment pictures. The first is of my Uncle Corey and my husband laughing. Anytime you can get a natural smile it makes for a great photograph. The next two photographs are of my oldest son, Lucas, and my youngest son, Zander, when they were playing and rolling down a hill. 

 These four photographs are of the trees around my mother's house. They were in full bloom. Apple trees look beautiful when the flowers have bloomed all over them, so I couldn't resist the opportunity to take some pictures.

These next photos are of my youngest son, Zander, enjoying the outdoors. He's an adorable little boy, and too cute not to photograph.

It's Official!!

So today I got my business license, and have at least two sessions set up. A wedding and a family session. Possibly another family session also. Just seeing the work I have done so far and when people find out how reasonable my prices are they want to set up sessions. It's very exciting! Here are some more recent and better photos I have taken. I hope that you enjoy seeing them as much as I did taking them...

These two photographs are of my nephew, Ethan. His mother, Amy, has me sit him each day. This allows me perfect opportunity to take some adorable pictures of him. He is definitely a cutie, with a great smile.

My husband, Norman, is the subject in this photo. He told me before this photograph that I shouldn't use him for pictures because he doesn't take photographs well. I told him that he could take nice photographs, and that we would just see who was right when I was finished. I have to say that I think I won this disagreement. Ha ha.

These are photographs of my middle son, Brandon. He's a favorite of many people because of his sweet-hearted personality. I feel that is captured well in these photos.

My oldest son, Lucas, is very photogenic. I love working with him. He's very patient and allows me to take as many photos as I want, and in as many different poses as I like. He's a perfect subject for any photographer to work with.

These photos are of my baby boy, Zander. He's a little sweet heart, and great to take pictures of. I always enjoy photographing him.
