This turned out to be one of my favorite shots even though I was specifically told to focus on the “children” (since two of them are taller than me, I get to put that in quotes). Since parents are the foundation of the family, I love to document them, too–their closeness and familiarity is awesome. I loved this shot in black and white, but I have to tell you, the color of Cherie’s eyes is incredible. That version may end up on the facebook page (you are a fan, aren’t you?). Thank you so much, Cherie & co! Loved it!

On the photographer’s end, however, it’s really really hard, because every slideshow is set to music, and one thing you can know about me right up front is that I am not musical. I don’t actually listen to a lot of music, even though I love it, and I have no sense of rhythm, either. Just being real, here! John King of Metta Audio is super musical, though, and he just saved my sorry self, because, get this: he writes music and now sells royalty free music for photographers, and what’s even better, he includes custom timings for ShowitWeb (remember, I said I had no rhythm? Sad, but true!). Thank you, thank you, thank you, John!

So, for the visiting photographers, check out John and his work on my little slideshow. For the potential clients who are visiting, check out Betty’s family, the new and improved version (family, not pictures)! Yes, the gorgeous redhead, Megan, was David’s girlfriend for this session. She is now his fiancée!
