Portraits




I just realized that I don't have any "people" portraits and since I'm going to be doing some engagement photos (yes, another friends has asked me--yay!) I thought I'd post a few. These are of my sister, taken in the fall. The daytime ones are in my parents' backyard and the evening ones were taken at the Old Court House in London, Ontario. I love the one where she is standing in front of one of the flood lights. It illuminates her beautiful red hair.

Hopeful

I'm going to a conference in Orillia tomorrow. Am taking my camera, hopeful that the rain will stop and I can get some shooting done on the trails. Have also asked my sexy sister to model for me on the weekend. Portrait practice--yahoo!!

Mmmmm...lilacs


Spring is in the air, or at least we thought until this past weekend. It was COLD! But the leaves are green, people have mowed their lawns and are planting their gardens. The thing I like best about spring are the flowers in the month of May. But not just any flowers--the particularly fragrant ones like lily of the valley and lilacs. Purple lilacs are my favourite but they smell so heavenly I'll take a bouquet of any colour! These are the white ones in our backyard just coming into bloom about a week ago.
