I’m in love. You are a photographer! ;) Still working on saying it for myself, though. I’m quite certain it would be easier to say if I had Photoshop and Lightroom in my corner backing me up! WYSIWYG photography is soooo much harder.

Can I just say that…as the “victim” of the day…I cannot imagine ever hiring anyone else!!! Not only was the morning time and place just picture perfect as far as the beauty of the backgrounds…but the heart in the shoot was what made the pictures. You were patient through mini tantrums, encouraging through occasional attitudes of my 6 yr old…dedicated to use the most high-tech equipment and knowledge you could get your hand and mind wrapped around. You made the shoot comfortable and easy. In the impromptu 30 minute preview session, I was so excited to see SO MANY amazing shots, its all I thought about the rest of the day!! I know that you gave complete time and attention to us, with every detail attended to…I am thrilled!!!! The few “mastered” ones I’ve seen are already worth the entire shoot. I am so thankful to call you one of my favorite and closest friends. You are amazing. I’ve never known someone who can master absolutely anything they touch. This, you have a passion for…the combo of perfectionism with passion is what will make this dream happen. You are on your way…I can’t wait for my next photo shoot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very nice shots, Dawn. I know all about how you were feeling the day before the shoot… nervous and hoping that you don’t screw it up. Even after doing this photography thing for many years I still get that way before a shoot to some degree. But I’ve come to learn something… either you nail the shot or the shot nails you. Some days you get to hold the hammer and other days the universe is holding it. From the images you posted, it looks like you got to hold the hammer that day!

Congrats on accomplishing your first “real” photo shoot. Once you get these images out the door to your client you get to start figuring out the next one!

Wow.. great shots! I especially love the treatment of the last two- replacing one subject in a pic and no more antlers! :) Nice job.
