Alison Waring Photography : Twins : Celebration Natural Light Photographer

I had the ultimate pleasure of shooting baby girl twins! I love babies, especially newborns.  They smell so sweet make the cutest little grunts and don’t object too much to being dressed up.  These little cuties were only 2 weeks old and aahhhhhdorable! They’re already on the same schedule too, which made shooting a breeze.  We knew if one had to be change/fed/burped the other was minutes behind.  I hope the family enjoys these pics of their little princesses as much as I did shooting them.

We have a winner!

Thank you everyone for voting! I had over 70 votes between Facebook and the blog- that was a lot of printing and cutting. All the votes were placed in a brown paper bag (super official), shaken vigorously and then birthday boy Baconbits pulled out a winner. Here it is-

Valentine Mini’s

The week before I ventured off to the Photographer’s Mecca I had a valentine mini shoot.  I’ve decided to have a little contest.  While I was in Nashville I won a 16×20 canvas.  I’m going to give it away to one of the Valentine Mini participants.  Here are the rules:

1. You may only vote ONCE on each network the pic is placed.  So that means you get ONE vote for commenting on the blog and ONE vote for commenting on Facebook.
2. The winner will be chosen randomly.  That means I print up the votes and have one of my precious children pull a letter out of a hat.
3. Voting starts immediately. So tell all your friends and family.  The winner will be picked on Jan. 20th

So y’all get to voting on which image you like best.  They are lettered (A, B, C you get the picture).  Please leave a letter comment i.e. OMGosh “A” is like the most awesome picture I’ve ever seen.  So on and so forth.  If you are not a friend on Facebook ask me & I’ll approve so you can vote.

The participants you are voting for *drumroll*

Vote for one: A, B, C, D or E

Vote for one: A, B, C, D or E

Naaaaashville or Nashvegas aka Imaging USA 2010

I had the craziest week y’all! I attended Imaging USA in Nashville, TN.  It was chockfull of knowledge, vendors and FREEBIES.  I attended so many classes I swear you can smell my brain smoking from the knowledge overload.  I’m already planning to attend Imaging 2011 in San Antonio (Jan. 16-18 I think?).  If you are a photographer you should seriously consider going.  Also if you’re a member of the PPA you get awesome discounts.  Plus you’ll see me there, I know how could you miss that!?!  It’s also great to connect.  I met some old friends that I hadn’t seen in over a year and also made new friends.  I even stalked some of the big named photogs (see below).  There’s also some crazy iPhone pics in the mix.  It was a 10 hour drive. Cabin fever cannot be avoided.
