Tuckness_Leaves2_try

Hey Everyone, I’m testing out this video stuff (all very new to me) and this short video clip and the other short video clip are different file types. I’m curious to know if everyone can view both file types on their computers. Leave me a comment and let me know if you can see this one or the other one…or both. Thanks!

TUCKNESS Family! WAHOOOOooo!

Ok, I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve photographed this family (This might make the fifth or sixth…Lacy, do you know?)…but I have to say this has been the best session!!!!  We picked one hell of a day!  Man! It was beautiful.  And I think we picked the perfect spot for Natalynn.  She was happy and mobile…it was meant to be.  We had actually had the session scheduled for a couple weeks ago, but at the day before Natalynn ended up taking a tumble which required a hospital visit and stitches.  Whoops-a-daisies!

This was Natalynn’s first time playing in leaves….and she was lovin’ it!  It reminded me that I really needed to take my kids over to Granny’s house, right after she’s spent the whole weekend raking, and let them go to town….maybe me too.

Nicole & Steve ARE HAVING A BABY!!!!!!!

Nicole & Steve (aka: Lucy Lu & Matthew Broadrick…or Densel, which ever he’s feeling the walking tempo to be;)…are two of my SUPERCOOL friends…..and THEY’RE HAVING A BABY!!!!  WAHOOOOO!!!!!  Now…I’ve NEVER photographed them before, so I will admit I was a little nervous.  Wasn’t sure how they were going to like the camera…  and as you can see by this first pic, Steve was terrified.  HAhaha

Ok…for this picture, I told Nicole to sit on the floor and pretend she was a little Asian Toy Doll…ok, a little Asian-Pregnant-Toy-Doll…ok, a little Asian-Pregnant-Happy-Toy-Doll.  I think she pulled it off nicely.  She’s such a Doll.  🙂

I pretty much specialize in fun, lighthearted shots…it’s what I think I’m best at, but every blue moon I do a “pretty” shot with lots of mood to it, and it turns out so good I surprise myself (sorry to brag…doesn’t happen all that often).  Well…the Moon was big and blue on Saturday.  This is one of those shots.  Although, in the back of my mind…where the egos of my self praise can barely be heard, I realize that much of it has to do with just how damn beautiful Nicole is….but I’d just like to keep thinking it was me…so shhhhhh!

And then…ah, yes….the CHARACTER SHOT!  Under the same roof live the gourmet cook (Steve) and the five-star-worthy baker (Nicole).  They have lots of different talents & hobbies to choose to incoorporate into the Character shot, but this cook vs. baker thing is “them everyday”.  I think Nicole was a little freaked out by Steve holding the gigantic knife for the picture…but come on, he’s not dangerous…just a pot-head (in a non-illegal way, of course).
