Newsboys Sneakpeek!

2010-05-06T19:02:00.000-07:00

Last month, we got to go to a Newsboys concert...here's a preview! I hope to make a REAL post about it. Maybe next week.

2010-04-13T21:34:00.000-07:00

The other day, my friend and I were standing in our church parking lot...and lo and behold, the lighting was simply Perfect! I was so excited, and she kindly put up with my camera in her face. :)
Here's a few of my favorites, made into a collage(my first try at making one of those).

It's a Bit Springish!

2010-04-13T21:01:00.000-07:00

Finally: Brother Pictures!

2010-03-19T20:32:00.000-07:00

Here is a face you haven't seen much of on my blog...specifically because he does not really enjoy having his picture taken. But: today I was victorious! And actually got some pictures of him! (applause)
Introducing my brother,

JMJ.

My Little Student

2010-03-19T20:07:00.000-07:00

I have a little student, and she is a very motivated one. :)

A couple of weeks ago, she got her very own violin, with her very own beautiful black case, and her very own violin book that says:

Maggie's Violin Book.

Right now she is learning the first seven notes of

Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, and allow me the pleasure of bragging

that she is doing quite well at it.

Here's some pictures from the lesson we had this afternoon!

"A-A- E-E- F-F- E"

And this is how we put away our violins.

"Maaaaggggieeee's VIOLIN Book!"

Air-violining?

And then we had to get some silly shots...(of course)

Queen Elizabeth

2010-03-03T21:21:00.000-08:00

The other day, this sweet little girl came and asked me, "Abbie, I want to look like Queen Elizabeth. I need some clothes that look like Queen Elizabeth."

And so we found her a navy-and-white polka dot dress from the back of the closet, and a lovely crocheted hat to complete her queenly attire.

And of course, what queen is properly dressed without a classic hairdo?

Our hike

2010-02-19T18:46:00.000-08:00

A couple of weeks ago, we went for a long hike with some friends of ours...

Here is their second youngest...isn't she just a angel?! :)

More scenery...

And here is my lovely little sister...we had to corner her to get any good pictures of her!

One of their fine young gentleman...

Some recent pictures

2010-01-26T22:55:00.000-08:00

Here's some recent pictures...unfortanutely I am not able to edit them as our laptop with my precious Photoshop is gone for a bit. So you will just have to survive the unedited ones!

This is our driveway, with some fresh snow.

A twig. Certain relatives of mine weren't very impressed, but I kind of like it...it's a bit appealing.

Another that others weren't too sure about...I must admit it looks a bit, well, freaky, but...it's interesting.

Now onto some prettier pictures. This is in one of the last few patches of snow on my grandparents' yard. For me, the flower, the snow, and the grass symbolize new life, blossoming out of winter. Very significant to us right now.

It was warm outside (yes- WARM. For all my American viewers: Canadian winters are not always -40 temperatures and blizzards! This has been a very strange winter. End of January and hardly any snow! Weird.), so my brother T and I goofed around with the fabulous light (courtesy the sun) a bit.

This one's kind of neat, like he's holding the sun.

Aaaand...that's all, folks. Probably won't be posting very much, maybe a little here and there. Busy times ahead! :)

flowergirl | CHILD PHOTOGRAPHER

2009-12-04T15:19:00.000-08:00

A few months back, Bean put on one of my old flower girl dresses and obliged me a photo shoot...

I'm not normally a fan of selective black and white...but let's make an exception, shall we?

My new header picture is also from this shoot.

Any critique? Please comment. Thanks! :)

2009-11-29T15:37:00.000-08:00

If you're a regular visitor to my blog...you may have noticed that it's been looking rather...well...unkempt, messy, etc. That's because I'm *trying* to make my own background for the site and *trying* to figure out how to make the afore said background fit a stretch template. Sooo...please excuse the mess and the lack of posts.

Thanks! :)
More pictures coming when I have the ambition to put them on. We have a slower internet connection so it may(haven't tried it yet) take a bit longer than usual to post on here.
Bear with me!

2009-11-18T09:48:00.000-08:00

The other day I dressed Rex for church and dragged him outside 'cuz he was just TOO cute- I had to take some pictures! Bless his heart, he obliged me...for a few minutes at least.

Don't you wish you had boots like his? :)

Kalib and Abigail

2009-10-10T14:03:00.000-07:00

A couple weekends ago, I was privileged to do the photography(along with a friend) for the wedding of a girl I've known for a very, very long time(our grandmothers were friends). It was such a precious wedding! :)

I love this silhouette:

I'm not sure which I like better, the black and white or the color...

Experimenting with some awesome pencil drawing(thanks to Paint.Net)

Hands :)

Becca

2009-09-23T09:41:00.000-07:00

Allow me to introduce to you my dear friend Becca! She is the sweetest thing ever, you'd love her, I promise. :) Just a little creative head-chop...how NOT to take a picture...right?

Not sure about the colors in this one...

Do you prefer color or black and white?

We were on a little dock on a little lake...

Happy Birthday Hattie!

2009-09-03T19:15:00.000-07:00

Please meet Hattie!

I don't know if I like the color or black and white better.

What do you think?

It was raining so hard that when we were done we were SOAKED.

I think this is my favorite:

Or maybe this one:

"This time each year in our hometown the county fair comes our way..."

2009-09-03T13:01:00.000-07:00

Yesterday we went to the fair.
Dad and I wandered around looking at the animals and exhibits while Mum and the kids braved the rides.

These chickens are awesome- don't you just love their poofy heads?! I fell in love with the sheep too:

Isn't this little lamb the most adorable animal ever?! :)

Lamas are, however, not so adorable...

A little friend from church that we ran into... A friendly lama(or is it alpaca?)...

Bean really liked this tractor...

Red found one he liked, too...

And then there was this cute little girl.

Bean:

Rex and Bean:

Another random girl:

Warm donuts! So unhealthy but sooo yummy :)

After a full day of rides(which I didn't go on) and food and animals, we watched the rodeo for a bit:

Autumn Family Portraits!!!

2009-08-31T18:56:00.000-07:00

Aaaaaand my ever amazing parents!

The whole family, all together:

Green and Brown

2009-08-21T15:45:00.000-07:00

It was a verrrry hot and boring day...
BG, Red, and Bean were only too happy to oblige me a photo shoot :)
And I was only too happy to be the shooter!

Black and white or color? You decide!

I looove the composition in this one ^^

Don't you absolutely adore Bean's new brown-and-green dress??!!! (Why don't they make them in MY size, I'd like to know!!)
We matched BG and Red in browns and greens. (my new favorite color scheme)

Oooh, yes!! This is my favorite ^^

I just couldn't resist taking pictures of the way she was walking- it was so cute!!

I think that's enough photo posting to last me for a while!
(maybe a day or so)

My Little Friend :)

2009-08-21T14:46:00.000-07:00

So chic!

Ahhh!!! I cannot get over laughing pictures! :)

Aaaaand, we'll end with my definite favorite of the day:

Once upon a time there was a sunset...

2009-08-19T09:01:00.000-07:00

A sunset AND rain, at the same time???!! Ooooh, yes please!

Oh yes, and there was a storm, kind of ^^ and I really cannot resist if there are storm clouds :)

Daisy, Daisy...

Beanaroo!

2009-08-11T15:35:00.000-07:00

I couldn't choose between color and black and white- what do you think?

Dirty feet :)

I love little girls' braids...they're so cute!

"Now it's my turn to take pictures!!"
Another photo shoot with Beanie! Is that all we do, all day, everyday, you ask? Well, yes! Just kidding, no, we also like to work and do school. Which is splendid since we have to do it anyways, like it or not.

Freezies(and more!)

2009-08-11T14:43:00.000-07:00

Red and his good friend JJ are a hoot to watch!

^^What could they be discussing so intently?

Note: this is not an endorsement or advertisement for freezies(although they are SO yummy and cool on a hot day...they are SO bad for you! Beewwwaaaare! haha)

BG and her hilarious friend Magnolia...

Fun at the Park

2009-08-11T13:55:00.000-07:00

I absolutely am in LOVE with these primary colors!!

Have you tried these spinny things? They're SO impossible! But are neat shapes in the sunset...

Black and white? Or color? Can't decide- so I'll let you!

You haven't met my dear sister Strawberry, yet, have you? Well, here she is!

She has the cutest laugh- or, guffaw, chortle...when she gets going, she can't stop!

I like this symmetry...

Red and Bean :)

The Twins

2009-08-05T11:46:00.000-07:00

Yesterday my second cousins came over and- well, what else is there to do, but take pictures! So that is what we did.

Here's Santhea! She has the same camera as me; she is also the one that took the new picture of me on the sidebar. Doesn't she look just so dramatic? I'll link to her photoblog when she gets it up and running... :)

And here's Nalie- she's so photogenic! Too fun. :)

Oh look! A color picture!

With Santhea blurred(above); with Nalie blurred(below)...

Red

2009-08-03T16:20:00.000-07:00

Here's Red! He's six years old, with a silly little grin, flaming red hair, and an amazingly mature heart for God and His truth and love!
Here I asked him,
"Who's your best friend?"

After a bit, he answered,
"Jesus!"
These pictures are of him pronouncing His name:

"Jeeee...."

"suuuuuu....""uussssss!" "Jeeeesssussss!"

Two Birthdays!

2009-08-03T15:55:00.000-07:00

Today, we celebrated my mother's birthday[isn't she the most beautiful thing!!?]...

...and my littlest brother's birthday, too!
Isn't Rex just positively the cutest little two year old ever??!!!

You can have your cake, and eat it(or slather it?) too!

2009-08-03T15:35:00.000-07:00

Does he even know what a fork is?

Teamwork!

More to come later!

Dad and Mum

2009-08-02T14:02:00.000-07:00

It was my parents' anniversary yesterday so we did some pictures...I'm not too happy with how they turned out- but we're going to try again later today! Stay tuned! :)

2009-07-31T11:46:00.000-07:00

It's Not All Black and White...or is it?

2009-07-30T16:46:00.000-07:00

As you can probably tell by now, I'm terribly "into" black and whites right now! Forgive me if it bores you. :)

Please Meet Chirpy

2009-07-30T12:31:00.000-07:00

Just before sunset is officially my new favorite light to photograph in!

Skies!

2009-07-30T12:15:00.000-07:00

The Scenario: sun, shining in my eyes on the river banks.
The Brilliant Idea: get Grace to go stand in the sun for me! Perfect!
