Love Your Portraits

Do you think you are hard to photograph? Are you uncomfortable in front of the camera? Then you are the subject for me! But don't put off those opportunities, life is unpredictable and the kids grow so fast.

Custom Art Print for Wall Decor

Posted by: Barb Gordon | Comments (0)

Fun Photo Friday

This was a treat to create for a special family. The nine “Ways to Be” by Gordon Hinckley inspired this art piece. I sized it to a 20×20 canvas gallery wrap and used colors to tie in with the family portraits we did.

And it turned out so artful, rich, and elegant looking.

I can change the colors to coordinate with any decor. So if you would like these positive “be-attitudes” in your home, please give me a call!

Fun Photo Friday

A pirate party was the theme for this four year old’s birthday party. A perfect way to document his favorite things at this age.

Her name is Rio

Posted by: Barb Gordon | Comments (0)

Fun Photo Friday

If you are a Duran Duran fan from the 80′s you know the rest of the song. Ever since a friend of mine sung that, it has been stuck in my head. Anyway…Rio is the barn name for my new seven year old, sorrel, quarter horse. Her name is Thuroly Modern Millie but I could not do Millie. She is pretty special and I hope she and Gypsy (the 18 year old quarter horse I have had a year now) get along well.

PS-I did not do a typo on Thuroly. That is her registered spelling!

Boys Rock!

High school senior portrait time is here in full swing. Starting off featuring the boys this week is Jacob. We had a great time and he had awesome images. Narrowing it down to five final images was a challenge. The outdoor session landed during our intense heat wave, but we got it done a few days later.

Tiny Ballet Dancer

She was done dancing and became interested in the traffic outside. I just love the story told here. I added an artistic technique to give it a bit of a painterly feel to the image.

Precious Sights

Posted by: Barb Gordon | Comments (0)

Fun Photo Friday

“One of life’s most precious sights is that of a newborn baby, expecially when that newborn baby is your own. Despite our exhaustion, my husband and I made it a priority to come in and photograph all four of our children. Photographing our little bundles of joy was the best decision we ever made. No matter how quickly they may grow up, we will always have these pictures to cherish!” Jill

Protective Parent

Posted by: Barb Gordon | Comments (0)

Fun Photo Friday

Parents are parents no matter what species. At four weeks old the nine teenage birds decided to join the adults on the roost five feet off the ground. This one little babe still wanted to hang with mom. Momma hen was still quite protective, giving me the evil eye.

I love being a 4-H kid!

My Favorite Age

Posted by: Barb Gordon | Comments (0)

Fun Photo Friday

Three and four year olds are my favorite ages, as you may already know. I love their cartoon voices, their questions, the funny things they say. This four year old shared the complete range of expressions with me. I have had the privilage of photographing him since he was a baby and today he brought his three month old sister, who also did great.

I absolutely love his lonely, quite face,to his full out, uninhibited joyfulness.

I am so lucky to get to be a part of so many families!

What do you suppose butterflies talk about? I love the color coordination going on in this image.
