A few months ago I was asked if I would donate a Lifestyle Photo Session to a local school for their silent auction and fundraiser.  I'm a big supporter of our local community and I put together a certificate.  About a month later I was contacted by the winner.  It was so great to work with this young family.  The beautiful mother, who I did not photograph (but I hope I can in the future, she is gorgeous), is super busy with her two daughters and one young son.  They were just great to work with.  One daughter was getting ready for her First Communion so we took these beautiful photos of her in her communion dress.  

The mother found some beautiful flowers that were just given to them, and they added just the right touch to the image below.  The flowers were so vivid, those are the actual colors! IMG_0227 (DSD) We also got some beautiful outdoor shots.  I located just the right amount of shade in a nice area with greenery for a great background.  I also tested a few shots in black and white, which you can see an example of below.   To the far right I left a hint of color in the bouquet.  I particularly love that shot. heart2heart I had a ton of fun taking photos for this family.  The girls were gems and the little boy was adorable. 

As a photographer, giving back to the community is something I love to do on a regular basis.  Working with a new family is icing on the cake.  In this case it was super sweet! Until next time!
