Just a little lifestyle...

I love taking lifestyle shots... especially of my kids. We had just gotten home from dance class and Marlee was eager to try out her new moves. So I put on some music and watched her "perform". The light coming through the window was so amazing, I just had to capture this moment! I quickly grabbed my camera and snapped away.

Marlee loves an audience, so she stepped her dance game up a bit and was dancing all over the living room. These are two of my favorite shots of her that day...

Taking more lifestyle photos...

I know it's been soooo very long since I last posted. Let's call it part winter blues, part just plain lazy. One of my New Year's goals is to take more photos of my kids and friends. More lifestyle photos of just enjoying life. I want to get back to picking up the camera because I want to capture a particular moment, so I can remember the little things and not just the big.

On this particular day, the sun was finally shinning. And the light was beautiful coming through the windows. My daughter was playing with her cat, Bella, (not real!) and probably a little annoyed that I was interrupting her. (She takes her cat everywhere she goes - on a leash I might add.) So I grabbed my camera and snapped a few shots before the moment was lost. And I'm so glad I did!
