taylor also shares a love for photography. be sure to check her BLOG out too!

taylor so graciously captured some shots for me of paige and me. here's a few of my favorites....and you'll be seeing these to the right of the blog now! Putting myself on the other side of the camera was very difficult, but it helps to put myself in the shoes of those i capture images for!

A Great Look

you may have noticed i'm throwing in a new post processing look that gives pictures a vintage feel. i'm enjoying this new look very much so you'll definitely be seeing more if it and i'm getting great feedback with it too.

the camera i shoot with, the canon 5d, produces amazing and vibrant color. i try to use that to it's fullest advantage but every now and then i like to try something new to keep things fresh.

here is a collage of pictures finished with the vintage look (there are many versions of this look as i'm sure you can see):

The Paint'n Place

if you are looking for something fun to do The Paint'n Place is a place you must check out.

it's a great place for kids and adults. a unique place for your child's birthday party, a girls night out or just an afternoon hanging out spending quality time.

last week, during fall break, paige and i met up with some friends and spent a couple of hours at the paint'n place. i painted a dip bowl while paige painted a nemo penny bank. the last time we were at the paint'n place i thought 'how nice it would be to hang out here while it's raining and just paint for hours' and that's exactly what happened while we were there. soon after arriving a small storm came through and the rain settled in. we painted for a couple of hours listening to the rain drops and a pound of thunder here and there (i love storms). it was wonderful!! there were a few other families there just like us spending quality time together.

here's a look at our creations:
