Simply Daisy

Sierra had another boutique modeling assignment. This time it was to model some flower earring. And where better model flower earrings than in a field of daisies??! Cute?-YES!

Sierra continues to grow as a model, I love working with her--not just because shes my little sister, but shes just so adorable and fun. You should see some of the 'blooper' pics I have of her--I should do a blog someday of just the MANY different faces of Sierra--they are hilarious!   :)

Bottle Pop

Another boutique shoot we got to do. This was actually our first attempt at modeling for a boutique. These have been fun to do, and of course I LOVE shooting with my sister Sierra <3

The only downside to doing these types of photo shoots is that I have to get approval from the boutiques before I can post any pictures!! :(

Christen

Christen is also involved in boutique modeling and asked me to shoot her pictures. She was asked to model a flower clip (so cute) and a headband. I had a lot of fun working with her. It is a little challenging doing shots for a boutique because I have to shoot what they are asking me to. I have to make sure that my focus is on the product and not necessarily the shots I want to capture. I am defiantly up for this challenge and loved working with Christen. I think these shots turned out pretty well and displayed the product nicely.

Black Swan

Recently I have been presented with a new challenge: Photographing for Boutiques. Both my daughter and sister are registered to model for boutiques and we just got some new products in to model. Sierra had some certain criteria that the boutique had requested for her photo shoot. They wanted a more serious look. So here is our Black Swan shoot:  

 

We played around in the water with some Black Swan Ballet poses, love the look of the water drops in these pictures.

Evan's Birthday: Balloon Release

Yesterday we celebrated the life of Evan Davies. Evan was born 1 year ago, but due to complications during delivery, he passed away 4 days later. Evan's mommy and daddy asked those who wanted to participate in a birthday celebration, to write him a special note and send it to Evan with a balloon release. This is our celebration.

We made a spice cake and it was very yummy!! Syri dipped into the frosting too :)

We took individual pictures with the balloon and each had the option to say a silent prayer or whatever each of us felt we needed/wanted to say.

And its off to Evan!

It took it a second to find the wind, but when it did it was soaring fast!

Up up and away

Flying higher and higher

Thank you Evan and Evans family for letting us celebrate your birthday with you. It was a touching experience for us all <3 We know Evan will love our notes and birthday balloon!!
