Brings a whole lot of photos. Lots of busy work like taxes and such kept me parked in front of my laptop for most of April while my Canon gently weeped.

| Present at both Saturday and Sunday's showers, thank God for Aunt Ginny who never met a camera lens she didn't like |
So I felt a bit rusty sashaying into two baby shower shoots. Uneven lighting, moving targets and poorly lit tables against a gawd awful green wall were the worst.
 |
| And let's hear it for kids, always a willing whether or not they get a second cupcake |
 |
Bonus, my cousin Gina (yes we're Italian so there are two of us) has twins
|
 |
And what's better than little girls drinking red punch
|
 |
Okay, maybe some people don't appreciate candid shots (Claudia was a good sport though)
|
 |
You know who never complains, Aunt Betty
|
 |
Linda didn't complain either (because she didn't see this)
|
 |
Wheeee, take my picture, Jeanna
|

Teens and Toddlers

 |
This gave me flashes of my college dorm
|
 |
The old dudes downstairs at the senior fashion show asked my cuz if she was a model
 |
My cheery Aunt Em and father to be, Joey, who hung out in the bar
|
|
 |
| And here's the sick greenish beige wall in a dark corner that ruined what should have been the $ shot |
 |
I found that hugs are hard to shoot
 |
The next shower the following day had a whole other set of challenges, but I liked the reflection from the windows
|

Love.
ReplyDeleteLotta work out of love I guess.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Aunt Ginny is quite the character! Thanks for linking up today and have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou don't know the half of it, Michelle.
DeleteI love this!! I'm not a photographer, I'm a picture taker, and people say "bring your camera" "take pictures" at events. They are tough to do but you do a great job!! Candid shots are the best.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I guess that's what I am too, Yogi. Thanks, got lots of complaints that people didn't like their photos, gets to be a drag.
DeleteLooks like everyone had a lovely time!
ReplyDeleteI think they were both a success. (I only put up one photo from the second one).
DeleteGreat pictures. I love your Aunt Ginny she looks so much fun!
ReplyDeleteShe's a hoot and a half, Artangel.
DeleteYou have a fun family! Looks like such fun.
ReplyDeleteYes and no, Sallie, lol. They can be, especially the Irish side.
DeleteI have quite a few of those 2 dollar bills. i guess they fit my personality.
ReplyDeleteHa, my Aunt Ginny collect them, as did my dad.
