Busy Weekend

This weekend was busy for me. I worked Friday afternoon and then headed out to do a pre-prom shoot for my cousin's son. It was challenging on a number of levels. First off, it was raining so we had to shoot inside. Secondly, the entire house was painted yellow and the girl's dress was orange--tangerine, to be exact. Thirdly, the mother of the girl was...um, how to say this politely...difficult. That is the most polite term I can use. Nevertheless, I think I got some pretty good shots.

I'd love to get this light switch off of her elbow!

Love this one, but I'd love to get that photo out of the background. Ugh, my kingdome for a faster computer and Photoshop!

Definitely workin' the GQ pose in this one!

Overall, it was a lot of fun and gave me some much needed shoot time. I've been used to shooting little ones--which I adore doing--but getting teenagers to pose and cooperate is a lot easier!

On Saturday night Mr and I had a couples' baby shower to go to. I was going to take my camera but decided I just wanted to enjoy the evening. I kinda wish I had because there was the cutest little girl there who I would've LOVED to have gotten pictures of. Anyway, had a nice time chatting, visiting and eating.

On Sunday I met my mom to go to a local festival that we usually go to. They sell crafts and some really cool stuff. Afterward we went to my mom's favorite restaurant for lunch. It was a really lovely day. Early evening I met up with my grandma, my aunt and uncle for ice cream. It's been forever since I've had ice cream and just lemme tell ya, it was great! Afterward Mr and I went to dinner and came home. It was a busy, fun weekend.
