Photoshoot of my Kids

I took some time yesterday to get some new shots of my kids. We went in the backyard, the clearing next to the house, and the back room. I got some pretty good ones and even got a good one of the two of them together, which is rare indeed.

There were more good ones, but these are my favorites.

Park Portraits - Emma

I took a portrait session at the park today, the subject, Emma, is a riot. I don't even know how many pictures I took and a lot of them are not useful as it was almost impossible to get her to stand still at all. I did end up with quite a few really good shots that I just love, and I'm still not through editing the 'keepers' yet. I thought I'd put a few up here to show off just how cute this little girl is...when she's not a blur to camera that is.

This shot was taken almost as soon as she arrived at the park. She was holding her mother's hand and I thought it was a very cute shot.

As I said, this girl didn't walk anywhere, it was hard sometimes to get shots of her that weren't just blur. I did catch a few that 'stopped time' and had to use them since running is so much a part of her personality.

As gravity would have it, the non-stop runner was stopped by nature. I captured this sweet moment while Emma's mother checked to make sure she was ok after her fall.

I leave you now with this parting shot. Also, a word of caution...please do not download the images from this page without consent from Jayde. All images are the sole property of Jayde's Little Corner and not for distribution, except to the client. If you would like a copy of any of the images posted here, please contact me (or the client if you know them) and request permission. I really would not like to go back to putting the ugly watermarks on my images as it detracts from the composition. Thank you for your assistance.

About the Photographer

So, you have found my blog portfolio, you have looked at some of my photographs and now you are wondering about me. My name is Charity, I have been taking pictures for as long as I've been able (and allowed to) hold a camera. I have always felt a love for photographing beautiful and interesting things.

My professional expierience includes working for Sears Portrait Stuido for a couple of month one year during Christmas time. I took a photography class in High School, where we developed and printed all of our own images. I have shot a couple of weddings, although I prefer not to. There is too much room for error with events like that, too much opportunity for a missed once-in-a-lifetime shot. I love taking pictures of my kids regularly and quite frequently hear how they look so good, and shock from people who realize I have taken them myself.

I am looking for clients who are not wanting the traditional stuido portrait of them, their kids, or their family. (This is somewhat mandatory for my services since I have no studio!) I will travel (within reason) to a destination of your choice, or suggest possible locations where fun and natural portraits can be taken.

I currently use a Canon EOS Rebel XS DSLR to take portraits. I have a point and shoot Kodak Easyshare as a backup, though the Canon is new so there shouldn't be any problem with it. I do not give any sort of restrictions as to how many pictures I will capture, except to say that the Canon holds an 8MG memory card and the Kodak holds a 4MB. If I can't get some good pictures on 12MB of combined memory then I'll give up photography forever! I do not offer packages or limit you to how many different 'poses' you can choose. You will be able to pick however many you want of whatever size you want.

I hope this gives you a little insight into me as a photographer. If you have any further questions, please feel free to e-mail me and ask away!
