Photo Shoot

My sister, Rachel asked me if I would take a few pictures for her the other day. Here are a few of my favorites:

Celeste has the BEST expressions for taking pictures! This is my absolute favorite of her.





Doesn't Rachel look so pretty?

Mark was extremely cooperative, I got so many good ones of him. This is one of my favorites of him, he came up with this pose himself, I just happened to snap it at the perfect time!


One day I will have a nice camera that takes really good pictures. Until then...photoshop will do!

Rachel is absolutely gorgeous, and her kids are soo adorable!! Laura your pictures are amazing!! So crisp and clear, and I love the poses!! You said that you have photoshop, were you able to take a class on it, or how have you learned to use it? I have it, but it was a download from a friend, and am completely at a loss as to what to do with it, and how the programs work. :D

Great job, L! Your photography career is well on its way. The close up of the 3 of them by the tree is my fav. Bravo!

Great pictures...and I had to comment on your last statement. That is exactly how I feel - someday! Infact I used my birthday money this year to start a little fund. Just about 400 bucks more to go until I get my FIRST nice camera.

Rachel's kids are seriously adorable--and you got some great shots of them. I think Rachel looks like Erin in the picture of her between the kids (close-up). Maren just got a nice camera and I'm so jealous. Someday:)

Very cute! Maybe we can get our cameras about the same time and take a class together. Jeff says "for your birthday!" I can't wait!

Laura what absolutely beautiful pictures! Thank you so much... I can't wait to blow some of them up. Now, who's going to do your family? (all together that is?)

Mom

Thanks for your awesome photography skills! :) I'm never going to Sears again... haha!

Great pictures! You've definitely got skills. And your camera seems to do a pretty good job. Those pictures are really clear. But I know what you mean about a nicer one. I've been looking for an excuse to buy a new one. Most of my pictures turn out blurry.

Those are really great. I love the one of them sitting by the tree and the one by the tree of the three heads. Those are really good Laura!

Kendra said...

Laura! Those are so beautiful, the pictures and the subjects! My fav is the one of the whole family sitting under the tree.

Oh my adorable red heads! (I am partial, of course) Good photos, Laura. I think while we were on our trip, Rachel made her blog private, so you'll have to tell her to add me.

Such fantastic pictures, Laura! You have a great eye. Of course, it definitely helps having beautiful and photogenic subjects. You could make some serious money with your photography, Laura. Want to practice on my girls when we come out to see you guys?!!
