Little Girl's Getting Big


Here's baby Jayden crawling around in the park after I got done with some baseball practice with Jake. I've been working with some new devices that are totally changing the way I photograph now. That was part of the reason for the lack of posts this last two months. I have been going to seminars and learning new tools along with Jake's baseball practices and games. It's taken a while to get myself accustomed to the new tools and workflow but the return on investment is paying off. Now I just need to get some more clients to try out my new stuff. In the meantime, I will be using my two main models. They're a tough duo to beat.

I hope you enjoy the photo. I will have more sometime this week with Jayden standing on her own. My little girl is about to make her third milestone!

It's About Time...


...that I finally posted an image and that my boy is playing sports. Tonight's image is of the big J-dawg booking it to third base! This was during the first game of the season and it is great to see him enjoying baseball so much. I have been helping out at the practices and it's pretty cool to see how far some of the kids have come in such a short time. We're really happy with the coaches and it's so cool to see Jake enjoying sports.

His batting has been improving and this weekend he hit a triple! The ball soared over the second baseman and then right between center and right field. He has been rotated through various positions and enjoys all of them. He's great in the outfield due to his throwing ability. The kid can throw a ball. It's just great that he finally came to me wanting to play a sport. I didn't want to push him into something. I think it's better for them to let you know they're ready. On top of that, he is also kicking booty in school. We couldn't be more proud of our little dude!

There will be plenty more photos as the season goes on. I processed a few other photos tonight so I should have some more to post this week. I finally got Adobe's Lightroom software and it is pretty cool what this software is capable of. The last week has been spent getting familiar with the program and implementing it into my workflow. More like a workflow overhaul but it's a good thing.
