Corinna and Roger

~I was extremely flattered when I was asked if I would be interested

in taking some photo's for this couple~

~I will be honest this is completely out of my comfort level as I am a more of a 

"let life happens" hobbyist

then a professional photographer~

~but with a little advice from a friend 

and

a fantastically laid back couple ~

~I think I was able to not let my nerves get the best of me~

~Here's few samples (my favorites) of how they turned out~

Freestyln'

~I want to put it out there that Dakota (the oldest) is starting to avoid me when I have the camera out~

~SO.... there is no favoritism here ~

~Or at least none that I will admit to~

~We dusted off the bikes and hit up the Bike /Skate park in Clive~

~There was not a soul in sight~

~but who would want to hang out with 3 Adults and 8 kids?~

~Not I~

 

 

 

 

~Oh.......... There's "the boy"~   

~Ryan and Nate have been biking together for 15 years (with a few years off)~

~The "Old Fogies" were trying to put themselves in to the nursing home early~

 

~That can't be to hard let me give it a try~

 

 

~Let's try the skateboard~

~Poser~

~The guys wanted to try and get a shot of a 360 from underneath~

~I wasn't willing to have Nate Jump over me while I laid on the ramp~

~So Ryan attempted~

 

~Thankfully everyone made it out in one piece~

Cousins

   

Free Spirited

~I shall call this Windblown,' and it shall be framed , and it shall be on my wall~

 

 

~ I love this shot~

~ Some days I am amazed at myself........                                                  

                                                .............Oh who am i kidding, 

I asked Ryan if he liked it at least ten times cause i can't trust my own instincts~

~all i can picture is a scene from some horror movie~

 

~DON'T FOLLOW HER!!!!!~

~SHE'S CUTE BUT CAN"T BE TRUSTED!!!!~

 

~and yet we follow~

~I have came to the realization that the kids are starting to become annoyed with me and the camera~

~Right after this she yelled at me for not keeping up with her~

 ~She really is a little Darling~

 

~Green acres is the place for me.
Farm livin' is the life for me.
Land spreadin' out so far and wide
Keep Manhattan, just give me that countryside.~

~My last post i posted this photo below of Lincoln and his Teddy~

~As much as I love this it felt really busy in the background ~

~I decided to repose this in our back yard~

~His little toes are just to cute~

~What do you think????~
