Shoot & Share Contest Results

I'm repeating myself here, but I wanted to post a blog and with better quality images. 

This year I entered 50 images in the shoot and share contest. Out of 332,768 photos worldwide from 141 countries with over 49 million votes, 7 of my images made it to the Finalist round, which is the top 3.5%, 12 made the top 10% round, 8 made the top 20% and 4 made the top 30%.

Even though I didn't place in the top 100 in their categories, I feel proud of how I did, especially up against all the AMAZINGLY talented photographers that entered the contest. The best part of it all is how inspired and motivated I feel to improve upon my work and push myself creatively. I can't wait to get out and start taking more pics this year!!! Here are my images.

Family Lifestyle Session - at Grandpa's Farm

I can't tell you how much I loved photographing these four boys! One of the parts I love most about my job is when my close friends ask me to photograph their beautiful little families! These four are cousins and we decided to do the session on the family farm where their two Mamas grew up and their Grandparents still live. 

Hope you enjoy these sweet faces as much as I do! 

Lifestyle Family Session

This is the second time photographing this BEAUTIFUL family, and this time it was to welcome their newest addition to the family! Another sweet little girl, all three are just dolls! I think sweet baby R is about the happiest little baby I've ever met. She was just full of the BIGGEST smiles!

A huge thank you to Leah Mann for giving us such warm welcome to use her beautiful home on a windy rainy day!
