Between the pictures

Friday, April 30, 2010

I love romantic comedies and love the line is Just Married about the picture album. "You never see the hard days in a photo album, but those are the ones that get you from one happy snap shot to the next." Well I have always said I like the in between days. Crazy hair, messy clothes, imperfection at it's finest. I think when I started my business I was better at this than I am now. So I am going to try to do even better at capturing the real life in all its imperfect beauty.

The photographer in me has a hard time with bad lighting or out of focus images and I have to resist the urge to move past them to the great shots. Last night I tried to get some shots of the girls in the blue bonnet wild flowers...Dreams of beautiful sweet pictures of them hugging and running barefoot through the grass.. HAHA that wasn't what happened. They were ill, didn't want to stand in the grass, Bella wanted to help, all they wanted to do was get out of the field, drink their juice and swing... So I was getting ill at their sweet daddy for not being funny enough and when I got over myself we just had fun.

When I first went through the pictures I said... Well we didn't get anything...

I was so wrong!! We got funny faces, pouty lips, sweet smiles, some good daddy lovin and a little taste of real life. We were trying for one last shot and we had them run across the field to get into a tent with daddy (his idea) and I'm not in love with the running ones, I love the ones in the tent with daddy :) They make me smile :) They make me happy about imperfect pictures and I hope not to forget this again :)

A little glimpse into our time in the wildflowers

I agree those are BEAUTIFUL pictures! Although I love great portraits (you have spoiled me!) I really love regular pictures that really show our life and those pictures will be the ones that help me to recall every detail of the precious memories of our life together.

Let me say that I believe both of these beautiful girls have the most BEAUTIFUL eyes that I have ever seen!

I miss you and can't wait until we can get together!!! I think the girls are going to have so much fun together. They have not been together since they all three could run around and get into things. Let's just pray for a beautiful weather day! LOL
