Rock the Shot January 2014 Photo Challenge

This month’s photo challenge over at Rock The Shot (www.rocktheshotforum.com) was ‘Favorite Shot of 2013’. It was really hard deciding but this is my favorite image of this past year! Every year, I do a little photo session each each of my kids for their birthday. My daughter was turning 7 this year. She loves long dresses, flowers, and feeling like a princess! The dress is from Dollcake Oh-So-girly, whom I adore!

This image was shot on a Nikon D600 with a 50mm prime. Settings were as follows: ISO 200, f/2.5, SS 1/200.

 

 

I posted this sneak peek last week in my stories but it needs a permanent place on my feed ❤️ Last night I had a dream that I planted  4 of these trees in my backyard. Literally dreaming of the blooms haha.
I got 5 nights in the blooms before the snow took them out 😭 At least I have lots of pretty editing coming up. Next to look forward to: lush greenery in June and garden sessions all summer 🌸
The blooms are so fleeting. When the flowers are at peak for only 7 to 10 days, and we’re also dealing with Colorado’s unreliable, spring weather, it’s so lucky when your maternity session happens to align with all these unknowns and we get a warm sunny day. I know it’s short notice, but I can squeeze one more client in tomorrow and one more client on Thursday. After that, the weather looks terrible and the blooms might be gone by our warm days next week. Reach out to me if you want to grab a last-minute spot 🌸 I can even squeeze you in for a last-minute wardrobe consult too!
