Lovely Black & White {Louisville, KY High School Senior}

I know, I know! It’s been forever since I wrote a blog post! It’s not that I’ve not been taking photos…  I’ve just been too busy lazy to post them here.  You can always become a fan of my Face Book Page, find me at A. Hurst Photography, to see my latest work though! (hint, hint)

I will admit, this post is a little selfish… there is a possible reward involved. lol!  You see, at the I Heart Faces blog they are now having a monthly contest and the winner this month gets a new Tamron lens.  Oh, how I long to win!! And, it’s fun to see other photographers work and interact with them.

I had two photos in mind for this theme and I’m not convinced that I’ve picked the right photo, but I’m all about High School Seniors right now, so I went with this one.  I love it, just wonder if it’s a little too cliché’ for a contest? Let me know what you think!

 

D Family Photos at Louisville’s Cherokee Park

I  had a great time Sunday before last at Louisville’s Cherokee Park where I met the D Family for some fun photos!  They brought their oh-so-cute puppy and I brought along some balloons and we caught some great memories in the two hours we were together. 

I’m trying something new and letting you see most of their photos in this short little video.  Notice the pic where they are walking and you’ll see little gold flecks in the air.  There was something from the plants around there blowing in the air and the way they picked up the light made them look like gold!

Looking Forward To Levi

I had a family session at the beginning of September that I finished editing a few days ago. I did something with this session that I don’t normally do…  I gave them about 40 more photos than my norm!

That sounds like a great thing!  The family gets twice as many photos as most do – but there is a downside to that.  Sometimes that many photos are overwhelming to choose from, and if you don’t have an unlimited budget and want them all, that can get pricey.  And, to narrow it down, can be confusing and frustrating. 

All that said, I did it this time, well, because there were just so many good ones that even I couldn’t choose which ones to throw out! 

This beautiful family is expecting a new addition any day now and mom wanted some family photos that reflected this time in their life, but weren’t stiff and canned, like most budget retail studios. 

Even though the little girl did not really like my camera, I still think these pictures reflect the love and happiness of the family and I look forward to meeting their new bundle of joy in just a matter of days!
