H. Family Portraits - Sneak Peek
This is unfortunately a week or more overdue. I wish I could have gotten these finished more quickly. My family and I took a short vacation to Pagosa Springs (and had a blast!) but that delayed my editing being wrapped up. Needless to say, this family is beautiful. They are good friends of mind and I am so thankful they let me capture some very special moments in their life.
My best friend Cassidy joined me on the shoot. She and I were the original duo of Brittann Photography back when it started on November 1, 2003. Wow how the years have flown by. I am shocked that so much has changed. She now has her own company called Captures by Cassidy and is doing fantastically well on that front. But, it was so fun having her as a second shooter with the H. family. She did her world famous Angry Gorilla - yes, you will have to ask her to show it to you if you ever have the privilege of hiring her to take your family's photo. It works really well on making kids laugh...big kids too. I love to embarrass her with it - yes, that is the kind of good friend I am.
Well, enjoy the images. I had a hard time just picking a few...so, I narrowed it down to...well, a lot of them. I guess that wouldn't be considered narrowing then, would it? :) Thanks again H. family! I loved every minute of it.

Sneak Peek at Mr. N - here's to you Lins!
Okay, my friend Linds and I grew up together...no kidding. We "met" when we were something like 2 years old. Our mom's were friends, then our dad's became good pals too. So, naturally we did everything together. She became a second sister to me, her parent's became my Mommy and Daddy Number 2 - so, when she needed me to tend her little man for a little while, I was happy to help. Of course, looking at these images you will realize quite quickly why it is that I couldn't resist snapping some fun shots of the handsome devil. Here are some favorites!~

The D. Family Shoot!
I had a fantastic time going to the Littleton Historical Museum with the D. family. What a fun surprise that location was. There was a farm built in 1860 and the other built in 1890. Both were incredible. One of the best parts was that there is an actual farm with animals still there and historical "actors" there role playing the parts they would have played if they lived there back in 1860 or 1890.
Here are some of my favorite images!

Photoshoot...
Today my friend and nearby photographer, Tori Thorp called and suggested we do an impromptu photoshoot. Me shooting her kids and vice versa. We went to Whispering Pines Park, it was not ideal sunlight as it was basically directly over head - but there were some fun pictures to take regardless. We had a great time. We are hoping to head downtown next week sometime.

Sneak Peek - H. Family at Arrowhead Golf Course

I had a blast doing this shoot last weekend. I've been a bit slow posting these because I want to get through them a bit further, but since I wasn't able to post a "shot of the day" - this is my shot! I had the best time with D., E., J. & J. - oh and of course little J's bear Sabrina. She was part of the Cheetah Girl crew I believe.
We went up to Arrowhead Golf Club at 8:30am and it was COLD. But, it was gorgeous. The sky was that pristine blue that you have to love Colorado for. But, these guys were troopers, although Mr. E - he's from Florida and wasn't too keen on ditching the coats or staying outside any longer than we had to. But, we laughed, we played, we lost some balloons - overall, we had an incredible day. And we got some amazing shots! So, D. - check some of these out! Hope you enjoy them as much as I did!

Holidays = Busy :)
I love being busy...so I have been loving these past few weeks. For anyone living near Rogers, Arkansas - I am headed there on the 15th of this month through the 20th. I am available for shoots - whatever kind you were hoping for. So, give me a call. The number is on my website. Anyway, back to Colorado. I had an AMAZINGLY fun time with the B. family. They were so fun. Their son, J.C. was adorable and I LOVED chatting with him throughout the entire shoot. Being a mom is definitely working for me around little kids. I totally am enthralled by their minds and what they think about. J.C. talked with me a lot about the "cows in the barn". The shoot was done at Idyllwilde. I swear, they need to pay me for all the families I have been introducing to that neighborhood.
They also had a beautiful daughter, Amelia. That little girl was not into me :) But, we managed to get some beautiful shots of her regardless. How could I not - she was beautiful!
Anyway, here are some of them. I had a blast with them. Saneth and Joey - thanks for the fun! It was great to be able to be a part of your family for the short time we had!

Editing delay




Can I just say that every time I want to start a project one thing after another comes up. My beautiful children (things 1 through 3) sure are good at keeping me busy. Thing 1 nearly started a minor fire in our kitchen today when she was playing with Thing 3 rolling him around in his high chair. She somehow managed to turn on the gas for one of the burners on the stove...no idea how. Scared me to death. And I wasn't even on the computer...I was in the other room vaccuming (Tim's parent's are coming in town to watch his brother's kids (they live just down the road)). Anyway, aside from that little mishap...then I am asked to arrate (sp??) the lawn before today's big snow storm. The problem is that it requires me to rake the entire front yard (we have no grass in the back thank heavens). So, I finish that minor project (my shoulders are now KILLING me) and then sweetheart calls from work and asks if I'll also mind fertilizing the yard...sure thing. I don't mind doing things like this, but it certainly does a number on my ability to get any work done.
Here are some fun pictures I've been editing and will eventually put in my album (which I need to finish ASAP!)

New Products!
I found this site via another photographer's blog, Pinkle Toes. The photographer focuses more on kids photographs. Anyway, she had a reference to these amazingly cute wallet albums. Super cute. Anyway, I found the site she must order them from- looks great! It's called Perfect Distributing. The albums are really cute. Check them out.
I'm so excited! I purchased my new website from Blu Domain yesterday and I'm now just waiting for them to hand over the reigns to me. It will be a big task getting everything up and running the way I want it to. (Side note, it's almost 10 am out here and my 2nd is still fast asleep - why does this happen on the day that we need to get to preschool? Guess no preschool today:)) Anyway, still a lot to get done. Here's a shot of all the frames I bought the other day to prepare for the photography fair coming up on the 25th...yikes. That's an easy way to blow through more than $200. If anyone has a suggestion of how I can buy frames, mats, etc. by spending a bit less...I'm all ears! I also went to Hobby Lobby and purchased one of their huge frames and will be buying the glass and mat seperately...still adds up to almost $70 for all that...who knew making things presentable could be so dang expensive.
and of course there's clothes from Walmart for the kids (on clearance of course) and Sparkling Grape Juice for Tim and I to enjoy on Easter...didn't quite manage to get to that point unfortunately. Would have been nice, but we were so crazy on Sunday that the day seemed to slip away without much help from us :)
