Soccer

Kylee has said she wants to grow up to be a soccer player. I guess we better get her in soccer, right? We were able to find this fun new

league. It's perfect for what my 4 and 5 year old need. No politics!! And practice right before a scrimmage. It makes my life easier than trying to remember when 4's practice and when 5 practice!! We show up and come to find out my Aunt Jenny and Uncle Seth are the coaches. How fun!! The girls love it. I haven't gotten to go yet because of work. But my mom and Uncle Jonathan have been good about pitch hitting for us and taking them. Here are some pictures. When I got home after their first game Kylee told me in a very dramatic voice "I made a goal! And Karla made two goals!!" I played for 6 years, so it's fun to watch them get into it. I loved it. I probably would have continued except the we were getting into Sunday games, and I don't play on Sundays.

Professional Portfolio

This is my professional portfolio. These photos were taken with a different camera, so if you want to look at the next post I think you will find the quality has improved since going digital. This is Miriam and Cory Erickson. I took their engagment picture and their wedding pictures. These are my favorite.

This is Nick and Zina Lund at their wedding.

This is the Young family. I took pictures for them while I lived with them over the summer. These are my favorites.

This is my cousin Kirsten when she graduated from High School. She is now a mother of two adorable boys.

This is Emily and Mike's wedding. I was only at the temple for them, but I took about 200 pictures. I think most of them were good. These are the ones that I think turned out GREAT.

I am semi-professional. What does that mean to you? I don't do fancy photoshopping. On the other hand, I don't cost as much either, and at the end of the day, you get the copy right to your pictures: I give you a CD. I do ask permission to post a few like these here for future prospective clients. But you may print as many as you'd like at your own convience. The most important point I learned in class is to take a ton of pictures. At Emily and Mike's wedding, I took roughly 200 pictures. There will be some in there that just needs to be thrown away. Most of them will be good. There will be several, like these, that turn out great.

Please take the time and view the next post as well. The next post is taken from my new camera. They are not professional pictures, but they are shots I took for me.
