Sunday Afternoon Portraits

Today I made some pictures of the girls:





Jessica wasn't in a very cooperatin' mood and the shoot didn't last long, so I wasn't able to get a good pictures of all three girls together. Jessica was responsible for the first picture of Elyse above, however; she brought the chair over and had Elyse sit in it, and handed her the yellow plastic watering can, which was a really good idea. Today she was more interested in being the art director than the model, but unfortunately that attitude didn't encourage her sister to be very cooperative either. I'm happy with the few good pictures I did get, though.

Appreciate This Gift

I met my brother, Jeff, for lunch last Friday at Jade Dragon in Lilburn. My fortune cookie said:


I hope that is true. So much of what surrounds us in our culture these days is ugly, and too loud, and too fast--but still, there is much that is beautiful all around us. Finding it is indeed a gift.

Scary Faces

The girls love to make scary faces. I love to take pictures. And thus, this past weekend's Scary Faces photo shoot was born:



(Okay, so this one isn't so scary, but she was trying!)





Not-Scary Faces

Here are some pictures of the girls I took between the scary faces pictures:
