Bridgette Marriott's Girls

I had the opportunity to do a senior photo shoot with two other photographers for a dear friend, Bridgette Marriott. She teaches 11th grade girls Sunday school at First Baptist Orlando where I have had the privilege of teaming up with her. She has been teaching some of these girls since they started high school and now they are entering their senior year. As a gift for her girls she asked me and my sweet friends, Christina and Kelli to do a senior photo shoot for them and then take some group shots. I took the hobby photos and some casual shots, while Christina focused on the casual and Kelli took the formal. Here are some of the group shots I took.

This whole day was a blast and a great learning experience! We took the pictures at the church so we had to learn a lot about improvising with shoot areas. It was also right in the middle of the day in full sunlight, since neither Christina and I have much experience taking indoor photos this was a stretch for us since most shots had to be taken inside. We learned a lot though, and had a great time doing it. I think we got some great shots from it too... check out Christina's at Christinamaeshippey.blogspot.com

Levi Wayne Stone

So I haven't blogged in a while... mainly because I haven't taken any pictures to blog with! Now that the semester is over I finally have time to play with my photography again! Here are some pictures I have taken throughout the past 9 months of my "nephew" Levi. He is the son of one of my best friends, Chaleen, and I have adopted him as my nephew since I am a long way from having any nieces or nephews of my own.

Sea World with Sam

I got to play with my 5 year old cousin, Samantha, at Sea World during spring break a few weeks ago. My uncle brought her down from Michigan and while he was in a conference all day we got to go play! :) It was so much fun... we fed the dolphins, sea lions, and sting rays, rode Journey to Atlantis, Wild Artic, and all the kid rides in Shamu Happy Harbor, ate a Shamu icecream bar, and looked at all the different animals and fish! So fun getting to experience it with a little one again! Five is definitely the best age to take a child to a theme park like Sea World!

Saint Patrick's Day Parade

My baby sister, Emily, is an Irish dancer. Her dance school participates in the Park Avenue St. Patrick's Day Parade every year, so I went and took pictures for it this year. It was such a beautiful day! So much fun seeing all the different floats and even St. Patrick himself! Made me miss when I lived in Ireland for that short summer. :( Definitely want to go back and experience a St. Paddy's day there, but for now... this parade will suffice.

Disciple Now Weekend 2009

I got to go hang out with a ton of youth at the Student Life Tour 2009 Disciple Now in Orlando last month. There we tons of kids there that were having a blast and praising Jesus. I decided to sit up in the balcony on the second day to get some pictures of the kids worshiping. I really need a new lens but some of them turned out. The conference was amazing!!! Francis Chan did a phenomenal job speaking and Kristian Stanfill definitely got everyone pumped up during the praise and worship.
