{ Marta Locklears -Creative Journey for photographers…free, fun & educational!}

Hey all. I found this Inspiring and Exciting photo journey to jump into and I did, although a bit late. But if you have time, check out www.martalocklear.com/blog and look for her Texture/Hue photo challenge.

In the winter, for me at least; I am not photographing people as much as the warmer months. So this is a great way to expand my artistic vision and really shoot for Me...and I've been loving it!

I just found this a few weeks ago, so I missed the first 5 weeks. But never too late right? If I can find the time I might even do the weeks I missed. Yeah I'm a geek like that =D

I really enjoyed looking around my surroundings and finding the objects to photograph. I decided to use my Macro lens because I love how it can focus up sooo close and make photos sooo creamy.

So I will be posting each weeks entry from me here on the blog. Hope you enjoy!


week 6 - hue . greens . texture . piney








week 7 - hue . blue . texture . nubby






week 8 - hue . yellow . texture (unlimited)

I was so happy to photograph this Sweet little girl for one of my coworkers sister. She was very sleepy and posed so nicely for all our photo's...like she was enjoying it!

I knitted this lovely mohair wrap and she was the first baby girl to try it out. I need to make some more!

Ok I admit it. Newborn toes are the best. Yummy. My fav =)

..and what a Proud Big Brother she has!

More wee bits. She has Great hair too. What a sweetie!

Soft simple and sweet. She is gorgeous isn't she?

Thanks Kristi for allowing me into your life and home. You are a lucky momma!!

Oh what a sweet chub this little guy was.

I met him on his 7th day of life and he was an absolute joy to work with. I am partial to big babies since mine were all chubs too.

And what wonderful parents he has. Really enjoyed my short time with the "L" family. And I hope that you enjoy seeing these photo's of Nicholas =)

Wow what a Head of Hair!! And the curls! *swooons*..to die for!!

Connie and Fred 2010 - {Southern New Jersey Family Photographer}

Connie and I are friends. Old friends..like going on 30yr friends.

So when my friend Connie said she would love a photo of her and her hubby Fred sometime I said I'd love to.

So we had a little cookout and caught up on our lives. Then we jumped in the car and drove down the road to a field where I knew I had seen hay bales.

And yes Marta Locklear you inspired me to include some hay in my photo's lol.
They smiled and probably thought I was a bit crazy when I told them to stand this way and that; but they complied. I Promised them that they would Love their images. And they did. Connie had made a special request for a forehead kissing photo. Her Freddy does this to her and she wanted to include that shot.

Connie had me design two gorgeous Storyboards so I thought I would give you a peek of how they came out too.

If you think you have to be 20 yrs old to have a fabulous portrait done I Hope this shows you how wrong you are.

Connie and Fred. I love you guys..and always will. xxx
