Spring in the Mountains

Spring has really taken it's sweet time to get here this year. I'm not complaining, we ALL know that Fall and Winter are my bread and butter. Spring light though... there is a certain magic with spring light. When I take Daisy on a walk in our back yard and look across the river to the next ridge, it looks like a painting. Seriously. The light turns the trees and their new leaves and burgeoning colors into a watercolor painting.

Last night I was on facebook chat with my bestie and all of the sudden decided I HAD to vacuum. Does that ever happen to you? On my way to grab the vacuum I noticed the evening light on our poplar tree at the bottom of the yard. Rather than grabbing the vacuum, I grabbed my camera and found myself 30 minutes later STILL taking photos of the light. I have a problem. Eventually I came back inside and vacuumed but, I did get some cool shots of the evening light on my little road.

Here are a few spring photos from this year:

We probably have chickens too. They're much bigger now and live out in our coop but man were the cute! How is your spring shaping up?

M + B | Their Wedding

It's been a minute since I've been here to share what we've been doing lately. We shot a fabulous wedding in January and I think it's officially time to share it with you! We had THE BEST time at this wedding, seriously. The ceremony was beautiful and I had to pull out my tissue. I always cry at weddings, whether I'm working or a guest. I keep a wad of tissue up my sleeve! Not kidding. At the reception everyone was ready to celebrate with the bride and groom. There was dancing all night long and everyone had smiles on their faces. It was so much fun to hang out with M + B and their guests. Many thanks to everyone! Happy Marriage, M + B!

You can peruse in the gallery below, there are two collections of images so once you're at the bottom click "view more photos" and select the next collection on the left!

Trying Something New

We've been practicing with a new shooting technique and I love it. Like, really love it. Tilt shift images are my favorite to shoot and to admire. I think a tilt shift images has such a dreamy quality to it and that's something that appeals to me. We're still practicing to get our focus on and not have blurry eyes and focused foreheads but I had to share these frames.

We can't wait to do this with our clients! Just a little more practice!

A Walk Through the Woods

We went for a walk today. It was rainy, chilly, and only beech tree leaves kept us company.

I love this time of year; winter offers such a unique beauty.
