New Photo Location

I am always on the hunt for new locations that are great for taking photos of people. One of my main issues with most places is that there are always too many people around. It is hard enough for most people to relax in front of the camera when there aren't other people watching. Jackson suggested one of the cemetaries here in town. I was sceptical, but it was PERFECT!!! I loved it. Here are a few of my kids there...I am planning on going again soon when they are dressed a little better.

Yesterday I did a photo shoot with a friend's children. You can see a few of them here.

mary said...: I LOVE it! Every time I drive by our cemetery here, I want to get out and take pictures. Seriously. It's beautiful! But then I start wondering if that is a little morbid to have headstones in the background. But your pictures look great! I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE that first picture of Essie. What a darling little girl, and it's so perfect with her brothers just playing off behind her. A pperfect shot.; 11:43 AM

"This is our one and only chance at mortal life—here and now. The longer we live, the greater is our realization that it is brief. Opportunities come, and then they are gone. I believe that among the greatest lessons we are to learn in this short sojourn upon the earth are lessons that help us distinguish between what is important and what is not. I plead with you not to let those most important things pass you by as you plan for that illusive and nonexistent future when you will have time to do all that you want to do. Instead, find joy in the journey—now."

The Things They Say

Aunt Jamie- "Essie, do you go to preschool yet?"

Essie- "No, I will go to preschool when I am four." Pause..."But don't worry, I'll still love you when I am four."

In Fillmore there was a chicken in the back yard. Grandpa sent Nicholas and Thomas out to chase it back to the neighbor's yard. Thomas got to the chicken first and it started running in a big circle. As it came around the circle, Nicholas was running along behind and the chicken was coming straight at him. He threw his hands up in the air and started screaming! The chicken didn't get much closer before it gave up and flew over the fence.

About an hour later Aunt Jamie overheard Nicholas saying, "I thought that chicken was going to peck me to a frazzle!"
