I heart faces- Lets hear it for the boys!!

This week's theme is "Lets hear it for the boys". When I heard the theme I knew exactly which picture I was going to enter. This is BIG SHOES TO FILL and was part of daddy's Fathers Day gift. My son is forever playing with daddy's tools and boots and tries to "fix" things just like him! I love the little boy in my life, oh yea and the big one too. ;)

Can i just say how much I love this family!!!! Two very sweet girls with an amazing mommy and daddy. It was raining and yucky on the afternoon these were taken, but the sun came out just as we started and ended up being PERFECT! But of course I asked for sun on facebook so it had to happen right! Had such a great time and hope I have the pleasure working with you all again very soon!

I Heart Faces- From a Distance

I heart faces does weekly photo challenges, this is my first week entering a photo. The challenge is "From a Distance". Yesterday I took the time to actually go out and photograph my own family. All these beautiful family pictures for other people and I had none of my own. ok ok I have TONS of pics but I wanted more "artistic" photographs. We set off to a local spot in town that I adore and I started snapping away. Why is it so much harder to get pictures of your own kids than other peoples? But we ended the day with several good pictures that I love!! Here is my entry:

Loving My New "Job"

If you can call it that. It is so much fun to work with families and be apart of their lives, even if its just for an hour. It's so much fun to be able to capture the true love between family members and those "silly" times too. Everyone I have worked with have just been amazing. I am so blessed to be able to do something I have such a passion for. So now I have to take time to thank everyone who has pushed me to start my business and that have kept my spirits high when I was questioning myself. You all know who you are. My first giveaway was a huge success and turned out to be the most wonderful time for me to read how much people appreciate the work I do. I have recieved some wonderful comments that have brought me to tears. It really helps to know I am on the right path. If I haven't worked with you yet and you have stopped here from my website, I hope I get a chance to work with you soon. To those that I have worked with I hope your sessions were as relaxing as possible and you enjoyed your time. That is my goal. I want us ALL to have fun. I want to run around and have an adventure with your children. So they have FUN getting their pictures taken because that is when you see the genuine smiles and their true personalities shine! THAT is what I want to capture, and what my photography is about. Before booking a session take time to look through my portfolio on my website, www.ridenour-photography.com to make sure what you want and what I give you match up!! I have a busy few weeks coming up so look forward to seeing lots of new faces!!!! Hope everyone has a great weekend! Pictures from the last week:
