The Other Side…

Posted in Misty's Life

No…..not the dark side. I mean the other side of the camera, silly!

It’s not often that I appear in front of a camera, as I’m always the one behind it, but this weekend, my good friend, (and extremely talented photographer!!) Heather, took some pics of us for our Christmas cards. We took the dogs up to Philly and did a little photo shoot around the Art Museum area. It was so awesome of Heather to do this for us, cuz it totally beats running back and forth to a tripod!! (Which is how we’ve done it in previous years) We had so much fun! Heather got a ton of good pics of us and we’re so grateful! It was soooo hard to pick the final three for our card. Can you guess which ones we picked? There were so many awesome ones so I tried to narrow it down for this post….but…..well….haha…Check them out below…

We had great light at the end of the day….

I think the best one of us all looking at the camera!

I think this one is my fav.

Love the backlighting…

Just Us.

OMG, how adorable are my babies in their coordinating sweaters?!

Marc’s favorite (ironic, considering he says he hates Philly LOL)

I asked Heather to take a few new shots of me, so I’d
have something more recent….LOVE these!

Thanks sooooooooo much, Heather!!!! You rock and we love ya!!! Everybody be on the lookout for your Christmas cards from us real soon!

Fun for the Holidays :)

Posted in Misty's Life

In honor of the month of December and the quickly approaching holiday season, I am re-hashing my Christmas video from last year. There’s a few screw-ups and the dubbing is off in parts but, hey….it was all in good fun. So sit back and enjoy me rockin out to my favorite Christmas tune. Those of you who have had the pleasure of seeing this last year…..well……enjoy it some more!! LOL

Alicia & Clay: E-Session

Posted in Engagements

Last weekend I had a blast shooting Alicia & Clay’s Engagement Session, out in Maryland. Alicia & Clay are both active members of the Cecilton Fire Dept. so we started there for some pictures of them, how they are in their everyday life. Then, after a clothing change, we headed down to the Marina and played around on the docks for a little bit. Here are some of my favs:

At the firehouse…

I just love the way she looks at him

Down at the Marina…

These guys are so cute together!

It was a wee bit chilly out that day, so a little snuggling was in order.

Couldn’t resist this shot….there’s just something about it….

Again, did I mention how cute they are?

I’m looking forward to your wedding next year, guys!!

The Wiles Family

Posted in Portrait Sessions

On Saturday, I got together with my friends, Stephanie & Brandon and their delightful son, Maverick, to shoot some holiday pictures of their family. Some of you might recognize them from other photos on my website, from their wedding that I shot as well, and we’ve become friends ever since then! We had a blast out in Fair Hill, MD… there was still some fall color to play around with, thankfully. It was a wee bit chilly out but it wasn’t too bad – we just tried to work fast! I was excited that they brought their dogs, Shelley and D.O.G. (pronounced dee-OH-gee) – or Deoji- along for some pictures too! (Isn’t that a clever name?!) I LOVE when people include their four-legged family members in their sessions!

We got some really nice family shots that day, the kids
(all three of them!) were very well behaved.

Mad props to my husband, Marc
for doing an amazing job at helping out with the dogs! (He was squeaking a
toy football behind my head to make the dogs look at me lol)

Maverick was having a BLAST in the leaves! Only to be a kid again….

A nice portrait of Steph

Deoji was just a shiverin’ so Steph stuffed her in her
jacket, to keep her warm. Too cute!

Steph & Brandon were swinging Mav while they walked
through the covered bridge…I LOVE this shot!

Thanks for hanging out with me, guys! We had a blast and thanks for dinner too!

Logan’s Baptism 11.10.07

Posted in Events, Misty's Life

You might remember Logan from this post about his first birthday, back in the summer. Well his adorable presence has graced my camera lens again! This time, for a very special occasion….his baptism. The poor thing was feeling a bit under the weather, but he made it through

Here he is with his pop-pop – my uncle John – Logan is my 2nd cousin

.
I LOVE this picture! My uncle has the most sincere smile on his face here.
