Snow Portraits



FINALLY, we got some snow so I could
practice REAL snow portraits.

I had to go TWO days before I found someone to pose
for me.

Well...I forced my daughter to pose AGAIN!!!!

I was staring out the kitchen window gazing
lovingly at the snow when she ran through
in her robe with damp hair.

"Honey, PLEASE pose for me!!!!" I begged.

"Mom, I have to leave for work in ten minutes!"

"I only need FIVE minutes...I swear!!!"

So I dressed her up in winter white
and dragged her to the backyard.


"Dang it Mom! My hair is still wet!"


Her:  "I'm freezing"
Me: "LOVE that pensive look!"

Me again:  "Can you give me a little smile??"



Me: "How about blowing some snow?"


"Oops...can you try that again with MORE snow?"


"Maybe a little pose?"


Her:  "Okay, I'm cold...that's enough!"

One more snap!

I love that white fake fur coat
I found at the thrift store!!!


Speaking of fake fur...
I also found this tiger skin rug at the thrift store:


I LOVE IT!!!!

I was so excited when I got to
photograph a little 3 month old boy
on the tiger over the weekend.


Oh, gosh...SO CUTE!!!



All my hats are from thrift stores.


I have to throw in a few more shots
because this little boy is
ADORABLE...plus, I added
my fun bokeh backgrounds again.




I love babies!


Because I LOVE my daughter and babies,
I'm hooking this up with the
LOVE project over at
