We got a lot of exercise during this session with "D"! - sneak peak

This lil' guy was so funny! He was everywhere. Mom said he would be my challenge LOL! Good thing I had Schyler with me she was very helpful keeping his attention. He is a typical energetic boy who LOVES Thomas the Train. So it would only be right that he had Thomas the Train in most of his photos, well until the lollipop came out that is.

Sweet "A". . .sneak peak

OMG we froze during this session! It seemed warm when we first got there but once we got started . . . well it was COLD! The poor thing was shivering. "A" is such a sweet, adorable girl. I LOVED her big brown eyes. I would love to shoot her again. . .maybe in the Spring when it's warm and we can both be comfortable. LOL!

MM Pop Warner Colts Tribute . . .

I was asked during pop warner sign-ups if I would be interested in being the organizations "photographer" this year. I was up for the challenge and really, really enjoyed doing this. It helps when you love sports too! There are 3 football teams and 3 cheerleading squads. Thank you to the organization, the parents, the coaches and most of all the players for giving me this great opportunity and have me do what I love.
Each year the high school has homecoming and invites pop warner to participate in the "Sea of Blue".

I was watching this little one during the National Anthem and I could not help myself but take her picture. She is a little sweetheart anyway. I kept watching her and I could tell she was in aw with the mascot. I just had to get a shot of it even during the National Anthem. I did keep one hand on my heart the whole time ;) So stinkin' cute!

The cheerleaders had a successful year at competition. MM Colts received the spirit trophy. Plus the Jr. Midgets squad advanced for the FIRST time and went on to compete in Rochester. Unfortunately they were only taking 2 squads out of the 6 and they came in 3rd.

Beautiful "A" - Sneak Peak!

I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful young girl, can you believe she's only 13? I wish we had better weather conditions and more daylight. I could have photographed her all day long! The poor thing was freezing in her ballet outfit. It was really cold and windy, then it started sprinkling at the end of the session. She was a real trooper!

I have quite a few more to get through but here's a sneak peak:

These were fun to shoot. I had "A" do this probably 10 times just to make sure to get some good ones ;) Let's just say she got her practice in for the day.

Lil "D" - Sneak Peak

Lil "D" was so fun, not to mention a little cutie! He loved to run around in the back yard which was good for me because I was able to get a lot of different shots. I loved his outfits too, that also makes it easy for me LOL! So here are a few sneak peaks and there are many, many more to come.

"L" and her BFF - Sneak Peak

I really enjoyed this session! This was a first for me and the scenery couldn't have been better. I'm definitely going to have a tough time choosing from all the shots I got. I'm behind on proofing because I have been so wrapped up in cheerleading. But I wanted to give a peak!

POTD - SOOC

Per a few suggestions, I've edited my post and added Urban Acid action on all three.

This is a practice with my focus & exposure. I saw where a lady did her daughter's senior photos and one was her looking up through stairs so I wanted to see if I could do it. She moved a few times and covered one of her eyes with the slat but I got a few that were decent. These are SOOC except I resized for the web. I think I should have stood up a step so she was further away. What do you think? Any CC is greatly appreciated! Urban Acid action
