This is one of my best friends, Cathy. Doesn’t the beautiful light coming in through my windows look amazing on my gorgeous friend? Yes, yes it does! This was taken on the fly (as in she wasn’t posing in a photo shoot) at Carina’s baby shower several years ago.
I’ll show you a photo of gorgeously pregnant Carina at that baby shower tomorrow :)
P.S. The word of the day is… GORGEOUS!

Today this guy is getting married. He finally found the right girl who could keep up with all his sweet spunk. This photo was taken at our friend’s small wedding in a downtown park. He was single at the time and I thought he should have a head shot to pimp out and attract the ladies. So I plopped him on a picnic table and snapped about three times. Look at him. He exudes joy. This was a few years ago and he still uses my photo of him as his profile pic. That is a great compliment.
Congratulations, Adam! We wish you and Monica all the happiness and success in your marriage!

I’m pretty sure this beauty isn’t named Blue, but since I don’t know her name and I’ve got to give this photo some kind of title I think Blue is fitting.
The children at this wedding were all so well behaved (which I find shocking because kids are, well, KIDS!) This sweet girl was sitting on the blue, front porch swing visiting with a friend when I spotted the perfect condition to snap this photo. Absolutely adorable and accommodating.
I love when that happens.
And this gal… her smile was infectious and I couldn’t resist the sparkle in her eye. The photo is a bit soft on the focus, but sometimes a soft focus photo like this can give you warm fuzzies in a way you may not get with a super sharp picture.

How about this handsome feller? I love his confidence and aire of gentlemanliness [Another wedding guest at Derek & Tasha’s wedding.]

Haha! I forgot to get the name of this cutie before posting it so she’ll from this day forth be known as “girl.” [edit: her name is Erika!]
Technically this isn’t a “head shot” (if it were a true head shot by me I would have repositioned myself to avoid the sun spots; as I remember, I did have her move around underneath a bushy tree to get the least amount of sun on her).
But I love her adorable smile, fancy specs, and how cute she was all dolled up for Derek & Tasha‘s wedding with her dainty blue accessories so you’re seeing it in my selection anyway. Their day was so pretty and everyone at the wedding so delightful that I have more from that day to show you coming up!

Remember in the #3 Head Shot of Emily when I mentioned having lunch with Hildie (of the blog Beehive and Birdsnest) at an Austin food truck? Well, this is she.
She wasn’t intending on having her photo taken that day, but I had my camera with me and took a few snaps in the gorgeous Texas light to commemorate our first encounter (we’ve seen each other a couple times since then). Both ladies liked the on-the-fly photo session pics enough to use theirs in their profile.
Sometimes ya never know when you’ll end up having your next profile picture taken!

I am a reeeally lucky girl (fitting that’s my nickname, eh?) This is model Anna Paola in Mexico at the Jose Villa Workshop. Sometimes it is hard for me to accept compliments about my photos from Mexico, because it really felt like the photos took themselves. The entire experience was kind of other worldly esque. Huh. Reading that makes me sound crazy. I am a little, I suppose.
Remember my first 31 Days of Head Shots post? This image of Anna Paola sitting in the window seat of a 400+ year old Mexican hacienda is one of my other all-time favorites.
I am proud to say that I envisioned this pose and composition then was able to convey my wishes to my non-English-speaking model in gestures, motions, and mimicking. Trust me, she’s definitely a professional model if she could translate my irksome mimicking and lack of Spanish explaining into the beauty you see above. Even Jose pointed out how proud he was of me for being able to create the shot all on my own (instead of just shooting someone else’s set-up).
I love that Jose Villa.

Gladys is a professional model that I photographed while in Mexico at the Jose Villa Workshop. It was an incredibly life-altering experience, especially since I have some amazing photographs (not to be all tooting-my-own-horn, but it’s as if you can’t take a bad picture in that beautiful place with beautiful light and beautiful people amongst beautiful backgrounds.
(Click on the sidebar that says “Photos from Mexico” to see and read more about my trip. I suppose I could link to it, but that’d be boring, right?)
