Sometimes you set up for a shot that never happens. Sometimes you get something good along the way.

 I haven’t been posting here much lately, but that doesn’t mean I’ve not been shooting … I’m going to try to play catch-up over the next few days and weeks.

This is an old image, but one that was recently licensed for use via Getty Images.

Ah. Morning coffee, and even better, having a moment to enjoy it!

Here’s the thing about little boys, or at least mine. They do not sit still. So if I want to get any shots of them we usually run first, shoot later. In this case, we didn’t even bother with the capes until 20 minutes into our time together.

My kids are still pretty little so we don’t really go too overboard on the spooky front here. I did, however, have the opportunity to attend Shutter Sisters Oasis in Palm Springs last week. Among other things, we talked about the importance of taking self-portraits as “proof” of being present in your own life instead of always hiding behind the camera (as I am most likely to do).

Hop on over to Jen Bruss to see her take on SPOOKY and have a happy Halloween!

My bags (and boots) are packed and I’m on my way to Palm Springs for a few days of photography and sisterhood. See you soon!

I’ve been a little absent on this site as of late. I have a good excuse though, I was travelling in Greece.
I’ve not attempted much blue hour photography, and my husband was kind enough to wait (even though he was super hungry) as I scouted out flat surfaces so I could shoot with a longer exposure.

I’ve been a lackluster member of the circle and I know lots of us are out with sick kiddos this morning, but if you have a chance, do stop by Jen Bruss‘s site to see her take on the prompt.:)
