Hello May!
Thank you for the sunshine, the green grass, and the warmer temps. I am loving the birds singing and all the greatness around us.

We had an amazing weekend between Friday and Saturday evenings watching our children and so many other children dance. The dedication that is put into this form of expression is something to admire.

Do you have a dancer? Show them below.

I know it is so easy to do. You are looking for your next idea for sessions. There are medias out there with everything at your finger tips. Holiday mins, best friend sessions,, props, outfits, etc. What would it hurt to use someone else's background or even if it has a model on it? The answer to that is a lot.

The first being we all see the posts, not my image, posting here for inspiration, or it will look something like this. That is not the proper way to do it. There is no credit to the photographer who actually took the image. Then if there is a model in the image, the person resharing doesn't have the model's permission to share. Even worse if it is a minor.

Have I done this before? Absolutely! Then I learned this wasn't a great idea. Your eye is not someone else's eye. The way we each edit is not the same as someone else. It does a disservice to our clients. They are expecting our work to match up.

Use what you see for inspiration. Create your boards on Pinterest and build off from it. Set up your own sets and do model calls. Your work be just as amazing.

We are all in this industry together.

Love,
Kimberly

While spring is springing up around us lets take a moment to embrace the day for what it is. Hope.

Today we attended a celebration of life and graveside service for a man with great faith. While I have only met him once I enjoyed hearing the stories of what an amazing man he was. It is evident in the wonderful son that he raised and we are blessed to bring us along on our journey with Christ Jesus.

That being said it has been a very hard week with loss and the outlined passage below was shared again today. It sticks right with you. Helps with making it through these sad times and losses. Especially when we do not have answers to the questions of why.

This image was taken by me with a sweet friends grief session. This verse is the one that she wanted photographed and highlighted. We are not alone in this journey.

Blessings & love,
Kimberly

Do not sell my photo equipment and backgrounds for what I told my husband I paid for them. JK He is my tax prep man. ;)

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

What a very interesting story is behind Saint Patrick. Kidnapped, made a slave, got free, and then spread Christianity. Wow! We will enjoy the traditions but there is more behind it then the little guy running around looking for his gold at the end of the rainbow.

Hope you enjoy your corn beef, cabbage, and carrots. Do you have potatoes with it to?

Blessings & love,
Kimberly

It is important to be all of this. I love being around those who have this spirit.
