Hello again! I am SOO far behind on my blogging, that I'm probably going to have to re-learn how to do it!  But I have had a wonderful winter thus-far with several photo opportunities that I am planning on sharing over the next few weeks. (I'd like to say "days" but let's be honest... I'm not that quick.)

One of the greatest things that happened is -- I was blessed with a wonderful husband who gave me a BEAUTIFUL 85mm 1.4 lens for my birthday!  It has shed a whole new light (Literally!) on the way that I take photos, and has challenged me to change the way I look at things.  Here's to learning new things!

The following shoot was from a cold evening in February where I had the fun opportunity to photograph my Dad, playing a gig in a local cafe with some good friends of ours, B. Andrews.  My dad is an amazing musician (you should check out his album 'Unrestrained'!) and it was great to see him getting the chance to play again.   B.Andrews is a family band with a heart for the Lord, and they play with energy and an encouraging attitude that lifts your spirits.  So with no further adeu -- the photos!





























































p.s. This was the first time that I was able to use the 85mm indoors. I loved the results, and am looking forward to getting more practice.
