my camera is still on the fritz, so no new sessions right now, but go ahead and read this article of photoshoping gone overboard. I use photoshop to help enhance colors, sharpness, and reduce contrast, and sometimes smooth spots and a couple of wrinkles (only prominent ones, not smile lines or crows feet), but I never "resize" anyone.

We are reminded far too often of the dangers of Photoshop thanks to missing body parts or a botched armpit. And while we would never condone altering someone's body for a photo, sometimes the conversation that follows turns out to be not only importa...

Been on s trip with my husband sorry if I have been in active on my page. Just a reminder my camera is still in need of repair so my services are not available at the moment. Hope to have it all fixed as soon as possible. Trying not to have to buy a new camera...cannot afford it right now. Despite what society thinks photographers do not make that much.

So proud of my husband, he completed his first marathon this weekend! And not just any marathon, it was a grueling 26 mile race up Hatcher Pass, which in case you are not aware, is going straight up into the mountains. Very challenging for a first marathon. I wish my camera was not still dead, or else it would have been the perfect opportunity for photos...at least I had a camera phone.

BURNING LOVE: A couple nearly had to cancel their wedding as a wildfire raged dangerously close to their venue outside Bend, Oregon. The wedding party was in place when firefighters told them they needed to evacuate. The couple sped through their nuptials and took these photos before moving to a backup site for the reception. SHARE these amazing photos with your friends.

Had a lovely photo shoot with two families this past weekend! Hope to have a preview of the photos within the next week or two. Unfortunately my main camera died during the session, so I had to use my back up camera. May be a while before I get the camera up and running again...sorry if that ruins anybody's plans for photos in the near future.
