This week’s theme for my 52 week project is A New Perspective. This week, I loaded up my four year old and we went scouting for a new location. We went out at 10am while his brother was at school and just played around a few new spots. I am not sure if I found the perfect location for a photoshoot, but I did find the windiest locations. I do not like to bribe my kids to take photos, but I actually felt so bad about making him stand in the coldest, windiest spots on earth (and smile about it) that I had to treat him to McDonald’s after our adventure.
Because I tend to be a creature of habit and shoot at the same few spots, this is my new perspective!

The theme this week is shadows. I typically avoid shadows in my portraits, so it was fun to play with some different lighting (natural light of course) and get some shadows on my subjects face. I think it definitely adds a mysterious, timeless feel to this basic portrait of my son. As much as I miss the warm weather and beautiful colors of the outdoors this time of year–I do love simple, indoor portraits. I think they really focus in on the subject’s personality and eyes.

The theme for week 4 of the 52 week project I am participating in is “hands”. I had a hard time narrowing down my recent hand photos, but in the end, a photo of my new nephew in his daddy’s hands was my pick!

Still playing catch up from last year! This session was a lot of fun! Right after we finished the photos, we took a long hike to the top of the Rawlins’ Uplift. From the top we could see all the pretty Christmas lights around town. Of course, I left my camera in the car for the scenic part of our hike:)

Here is my last Rawlins High School 2012 senior session. Looking forward to photographing 2013 seniors as soon as the weather warms up! Drew was very sweet and a good sport about getting his photos done–not to mention looking very dapper. His girlfriend helped pick out his outfits–and I think they turned out awesome. We even got a few in his football jersey and letterman jacket. I am sure he was freezing, but you sure can’t tell looking at these!

I was a little nervous when we set out to take Brendan’s senior portraits–it was another freezing winter day in Rawlins! Thankfully Brendan is a lot tougher than me (no coat, that is crazy) and was extremely easy to photograph. I also enjoyed coming up with some new locations in Rawlins, WY that worked well for a senior boy…and one of the buildings we used was where his mom had attended high school! Here are just a few images from this class of 2012 senior’s session.

This was taken on a very cold, windy day here in Rawlins, Wyoming! Apparently while I was enjoying balmy 70 degree weather in Tucson, Arizona and Southern California, my Wyoming friends were enjoying weather in the 40s…a lot warmer than the day these photos were taken. I really enjoyed working with this beautiful family–they were very relaxed and dressed perfectly for holiday portraits–despite the cold weather!
