Creative Freedom

Yesterday I had a blast taking pictures of Mindy. She's such a sport and allowed me creative freedom. I've been wanting to create images with the atmosphere of an old painting for a while. Usually I go for crisp, clean photographs. This time I made most of them soft and romantic.

While my husband can photograph boys so they look like rock stars or world class athletes, I like to bring out the celebrity glamour in girls. So in preparation for the graduations to come, I have put together a portrait package just for them.
