Slacking I know...

Haven't posted in a long time, many shoots since then so lots of pictures to come soon! Hope everyone is well!

Night Shots

This was the first year I went around and took night shots on the island. I loved going around seeing all the night life of the local and travelers out. Some of the shots from the pier were my favorite because there's almost a creepy feel to them. Especially the one of the door.

We actually went through the door and then on the way back out it was closed and for a few minutes I thought we were going to be locked in. haha

I love this shot because you can definitely tell this place was closing down if not already closed down.

These light shots are some of my favorite to take. Every time I get the chance I take them. I had a ton more that I shot but I tried to limit myself on here:)

I love love LOVE that I captured the car lights in this picture. I also love how the palm tree on the left has its own light.

Well I hope you enjoyed a few of my night shots:) Hope everyone has a great weekend!

The Beach:)

My family takes a beach trip every year and every year I bring my camera but this year I went out of my way to find things to take pictures of so I would have stuff for my portfolio. Here's a collection of some of the things I took.

This guy had set up all these cool flags(you'll see another one later) so my uncle and I went down to take pictures of them. They were so beautiful blowing in the wind.

As I was walking down the beach I saw this little piece of yellow coral. I thought it was so pretty stuck between all the brown sand.

My cousin just had a baby and he was the most precious thing!

When my family was fishing they caught a baby shark and my uncle pretended to eat it. Haha we love to joke around but I was seriously scared for a minute when the shark started squirming around.

Well that's all from the beach. I hope everyone is having a great summer so far!

Sara the Skim Boarder

My cousin Sara had this cool skim board at the beach. She was determined to get really good at it by the end of the week and she definitely got there:) I took some pictures of her and liked some of these shots.

I love the action and the concentration in her face in this one.

Another action shot but I liked the way I got the umbrellas as well as their reflection in the shot.

Even though this is just her waiting for the right wave I thought her stance was pretty cool so I wanted to capture it.

Much more beach pictures to come but I'm going to separate them into different posts so it's not just one huge long post:)

Beach Sneak Peak

I haven't posted in a while because I've been on vacation but I just wanted to give a little sneak peak for what's to come.

Hope everyone is doing well and more to come later on this week!

The Cruise of 2009

I went on a cruise this past spring break and decided some of those pictures were worthy of putting up here. I love cruise ships because there's always so much going on which presents so many opportunities to take pictures. I probably took more pictures than anything else on that cruise but I loved doing it so that's what counts right?

Well this will be the first of many light pictures. Cruise ships are the best.

Dunn's River Falls. My crazy ability to not really take a straight picture shows through in this one. :)

I love this shot of Lindsey. We were all just walking through one of those shops on the side of the road and this woman was trying to talk us into buying one of these wraps that can "turn into 47 other dresses!". Guess who fell for it? Me of course.

We tried to get some sunset portraits and this was my favorite one that turned out even if their hair is blowing like crazy in the wind.

I know this picture is so so blue but I just can't help the fact that I like it a lot. I don't know if it's the creepy blue light or what but it's a favorite for sure.

Beautiful lights. Lights are one of my favorite things to take pictures of besides people and they are also one of my favorite things about cruise ships.

I took this photograph at an angle and when I was taking it I didn't even notice that there was a man in the bottom left corner but I love that I captured him through a window as well as the stairs.

This was during the deck party. I stood on the upper deck and got pictures because I loved the way the lights were all different colors and how they were shinning on the people.

These were the stairs leading into the theater. I took some that were in focus but I think this one was my favorite because it was something I wasn't expecting when I took it.

This is my absolute favorite. I love this one because of the timing I think. Twilight is a beautiful time to take pictures and to catch the other lights. I just love that time of day.

Check back for more to come!

Graduation:)

This post can be called the Graduation post. My sister just graduated a couple of weeks ago and these are some of the pictures I took over the course of the weekend.

I love this shot. Walking away shots are some of my favorite to take because usually the subject doesn't know that you're taking it so you get to capture them in their natural state.

Haha this is such a typical face. She was excited to be getting finished though.

She looks so pretty!

These next couple were from her graduation party. She just sat down on the couch like this and I got her to look at me real quick before she took her foot down. I thought it turned out pretty cute.

This is my cousin's baby and I just thought he looked so cute and so peaceful. Precious.
