I Heart Faces Week 13- Dramatic B & W

I was so excited to hear about this week's topic. This photo is from the Rodrigo y Gabriela concert last fall. Gabriela's pose is just so dramatic to me (especially with the beam of light). It was so much fun to shoot!

I Heart Faces Week 12- Focusing on Angles

W

When I saw the topic of this week's challenge I immediately knew the photo I was using. I shot this at an outdoor Bridal Shower last summer. I was standing there talking to Ari (shown above) when the light shifted and I knew it had to be captured. I love the fact that the vivid blue of her eyes matches her dress.

Hillarious Outtakes- I Heart Faces Submission Week 9

For this weeks submission I've picked my favorite outtakes from a wedding I shot last September. I had a total blast capturing the memories.

 

Love this one! Susee and Tristan were so much fun. He was leaning on the pole and lost his footing and I managed to catch Susee's over the top reaction.

 

A few seconds later- They are both laughing their heads off. 

There's something so Matrix-esque about the two in the background. 

Obviously, the shutter speed was way too slow...but I love the crazy looks on everybody's faces!

Hands On Fun- I Heart Faces Week 8 Submission

 

When I saw that this weeks topic was "Hands On Fun" I immediately thought of this shot. In January my Grandma was comparing hands with Aislynn (my second cousin...one of her many great grandkids). I was struck by the contrast between grandmas hands (89 years old, roughened by a childhood on helping on the farm) and Aislynns still youthful and plump.

We ♥ Kisses Submission

This is Tristan and Susee...just minutes after their wedding.

The day started with threatening dark clouds but just before the ceremony started the sun broke through. 

It was absolutely breathtaking.

I ♥ Faces Submission: Week 3- We Are Family

I was exploring Downtown Seattle with my dear friend Chandra and her girls when we stumbled upon a spot with the most beautiful light (Freeway Park). So we stopped for an impromptu photo shoot. I even got a smile out of her 13 year old (who's going through her emo phase and tries not to smile...it ruined her emo cred :-) ).
