On to the next...

Nothing much to say, I just wanted to post some pics of some kids I shot. I love these pictures. The first one isn't a perfect shot, but does get her personality. Enjoy!

Oh yeah, and I'm still working on my logo!

Thrill of Victory...

Let's talk about some victories over the past few weeks. 1) School's out for summer! 2) Finding the Joy 3) and a baseball victory. These three things have made June fun. Nothing brings more joy than a victory in baseball and summerbreak. My plan this summer is to take more pictures. I have been given the assignment of learning studio lighting. So that's next on my plate. Also, I need to buy a speedlight. But I do love shooting in natural light--these pictures show how fun it is.

These two pictures have the word "joy." on them because they are part of an online photography class that I am taking. Kelly McMahon Willette is giving an online class called "Finding the Joy" (www.willettedesigns.com/photographer-tools/workshops/finding-the-joy/) It's all about finding the joy in taking pictures of your own kids. Funny thing about it is I have no children, so I have to shoot orphans - JOKE! No, my friends are so willing to let me photograph their kids. (Uh-free photos!)

All of the photos in this post are from a baseball game where the Braves came back from a six run deficit to win! (Don't the Atlanta Braves wish they could do that?) During the last inning everyone was screaming and banging on the fence. I even found myself doing it! Too damn much for a little league baseball game -- but I couldn't help myself. BTW, these boys deserved it. Congratulations!

So no laughing allowed, but I am working on my logo! {l-scott photography} I want to add a pair of glasses to it. Let me know what you think! Oh yeah, I want to be able to change the color too. For now, I am going to use green (my favorite color.)

Just have to write a little something on this photograph. I love it! Her eyes, her arm, her hair are all perfect! Hope her momma loves it too!

FYI -

This is not a blog, but a website that I read often. (www.altdaily.com) Enjoy-I do!

No music suggestion for you this post. Just listen to my music player and pick one you like!

Cigarettes, Wedding Bands

So about two weekends ago I attended a wedding in Fairfax. It was beautiful, but definitely got me thinking about getting old. I think a good sign of how old you are getting is when many of your friends start to get married. I think 32 is about the age where people begin to settle down, but I wonder how many of my friends who married earlier in life wish that they would have waited.

So here are few pictures that I took at the wedding. I didn't know many people there, so I wanted to only take picture of the people I knew. Here are few!

Oh yeah, I asked the wedding photographer if I could take a picture of him after he takes a picture of us. He said, "I charge for that!" I need to remember that!


Okay, this boy is so fine! I love this picture. It's one of my favorite from the day. He knows how to take a good photo. Damn suspenders just add that certain something!

The picture above is of my friend. You can't see the color of his shirt and tie, but they are purple. This outfit was dope! I also wish that you could see the rest of his outfit - he had on black Express jeans with black Chucks! Major!!!

Love this picture of her. She too is one of my very best friends. I love getting good photos of my friends.

I have know this boys for about 15 years now and love him more than life! The above picture just represents a wedding for me. I think there are always last minute adjustments to the outfits worn. I think it's important to catch these moments at a wedding! Just like the one below.

How funny is it that they are standing just alike? This was the best man and one of the groom's men. These too are best friends, so I thought that it would be great to catch them doing something similar. Here it is! I just love this photo!

Just FYI

This week I've been listening to The Postal Service. That group is just simply amazing! Ben Gibbard is one of the best lyric writers I've listened to. Check out the song "Clark Gable." If you don't fall in love - you have no heart!

A blog that I found this week is www.wildchildphotography.com I love, love, love the colors that she uses. Beautiful photography!
