Let's Get the Kids in on the Act!

While taking business portraits w/ Brian recently, he brought his daughter along, so we decided to get her in on the act, too. (Like we had a choice...) What an adorable little girl!

Business Portraits w/ Brian

With the weather being so nice and the beautiful light of fall, now is the perfect time to update business portraits to have the best possible impact on your clients and colleagues.

Brian wanted his updated business portraits to be fun and engaging. We met downtown so we could use the architecture to help set the mood, and they turned out wonderfully.

Portraits w/ Tola

It was such a beautiful weekend! Tola and I met at the park, where we had so much fun - hanging out, looking at the colors, oh, and taking some pictures while we were there. Thanks, Tola!

More Fall Colors

On a trip to shoot fall colors, I was a little surprised at how many "non-fall" colors I found. Pinks, purples, blues... all the more bright and lovely combined with the orange and browns and reds of fall.

Jackie & Jim's Business Portraits

Jackie and Jim decided it was time to update their business image, and new business portraits was part of that. They understand that connecting with clients and partners is a vital piece of doing busines today. A portrait that is professional but not "stuffy" sends just the right message for their business.

After talking with them about the "feeling" they wanted from their portraits, we headed out, taking pictures in a few different spots - and ended up with just what they were looking for. Enjoy!

The Hand of Man ...

So often I post about the beautiful things that occur naturally in the world around us. It's easy to overlook the beautiful man-made (or is it person-made??) things that we live with every day.

Today I spent a little time looking at the beautiful things some of our fellow humans have created. Stunning!

Idaho Falls, ID

I've spent the last few days in Idaho Falls, ID - and had time to look around the yard a little. As you can see, mother nature has done her part to help out with the decoration. :-)
