Adorable Smiles That Make the Winter Blues Go Away!

We had  a photo shoot of this adorable family today. The boy just turned 4 years old and the girl is 6 months old.  They are always lots of fun to photograph.  The boy is so sweet to his little sister.  I hadn't taken pictures of this little girl since she was just a few weeks old! Boy, do they get big fast!

Wishing It Was Summer!

When I woke up this morning, I was really excited to get out of the house and get some fresh air. Yesterday was a high of 4 above so I thought today would be just as nice.  You know, fresh air is an amazing thing in January!  Well, it wasn't as nice out as I thought it would be.  One could say, almost blizzard like conditions.  Sure it's 6 above but the 40 mph winds make it -32!  Yep, went to one store and came home.

I'm sure everyone is starting to get sick of winter. We do live in North Dakota so we should be use to it! For some reason -32 always seems beyond cold!  I thought I'd post a few pictures of flowers today in hope that it will remind you that summer is on it's way. (ONLY 5 months or so..ha ha ha)  These were a few of the flowers growing in my moms yard! Aren't they pretty!  I took pictures of these for her. I believe she has them framed somewhere in her house.

A Vacation with a Photographer

My husband and I recently went on vacation to Mexico. I did not bring with my big cameras for I was worried about getting sand in the lenses. So instead, we ordered the new Nikon Coolpix S8000.  For any of you in the market for a point and shoot camera, this one is amazing.

Look at the waves rolling in!

I'm sure my husband got tired of me saying,"Just a second," while I took out my camera and started shooting.  I really like to take scenery pictures while I am on vacation.  My living room is full of blow up pictures from vacations.  It is really neat to be able to personalize our room with pictures of places we have been.

I hope you enjoy these!  We will be traveling to Chicago soon. I hope to capture some pictures there as well.
Tomorrow is Christmas! I hope each one of you get all that you want and more.  Happy Holidays!

It was really windy while we were there!

Beautiful sunset! Our resort was located right next to the ferry dock!

Me making my poor husband pose!

I loved the character that this tree had!

I could look at the sea for hours! Isn't  it relaxing?

I liked the texture that the waves had against the sand.

This picture was taken from a lighthouse. We had to climb 150 steep stairs to get to the top but it was well worth it!

This was half way up the lighthouse. I love the view from the window!

Perhaps I should have taken time to sit in these because they are very fun, but I was too busy taking pictures!

And your probably wondering what this has to do with our vacation!  Well, the snow storm that produced 21 inches of snow  greeting us as we were getting off of the plane!

Please Don't Leave Me!

Hi!  It's that time of the year where my appointments are going to be slowing down because who wants their pictures taken when it is -100 degrees out? I don't want to loose all my blog readers so here is what's going to be in store for you! Each week, I'm going to do a variety of things on my blog, not limited to, but may include viewing my favorite pictures from the last year, scenery pictures that I am working on, pointers on how to take good pictures, some pictures from my personal life and much more!

The Polleys

This was my first photo shoot inside of the Ralph Engelstad Arena.  I have taken pictures outside of it and on the main floor, but never pictures like I got to take at this photo shoot.  Mom and dad work here, so we had full access.  We even go to take pictures in Mr. Engelstad's suite as well as right on the ice.

Look at all those facial expressions! Mom said it was very her!

Aren't her eyes pretty! She was a very sweet big sister!

Sister and best friends!

I'm happy I'm not the one that had to walk out onto the ice.  They did a great job not only getting out there, but also smiling at the camera even though I was far away!

We worked with a variety of locations and angles.

The girls were a lot of fun. They were ready to smile at all times. The youngest girl made some of the funniest faces, of which I caught on film.  We took a variety of pictures and I was very excited to share some of these with you.  It is always exciting to be at a new location with a great family!
