Dana Ruby Martin photography: Brooke, Bowen, and Jake

I am super pumped about this shoot... (well I should back track for a moment and explain that I as soon as I get home from every shoot I am soo pumped and the first thing I do...after hugs and kisses for my boys...is preview the photos with pure excitement and look for the 'experimental ones'). Those of you who have had your photos taken by me, will recall me saying from time to time...'oh i am just going to try this one idea out' this of course is then followed by a ' o o o i love it, love it...quite possibly my favorite photo ever!!' Well this was a family shoot of great friends of mine, so naturely I felt very comfortable with doing more than one idea!! This family is outstanding, they are so easy to photograph, full of spirit and super natural in front of the camera (i wonder why Karen?!! hee hee) Karen loves to take photos and she is a scrapbooking genius! Enjoy your sneak peek guys and here are the 'o o o lets try this one' first:

i have been trying to master the LENS FLARE creative factor and thus far have not been overly successful at it, but i think...i think..i may have nailed it...
