TCPPA

The TCPPA http://www.tcppa.org/ Print competition was held last night at Hennepin Technical College in Eden Prairie. I entered three prints and one of them was awarded a merit!! Very exciting. It is a very hard experience to have to listen to 5 experienced photographers who's work I admire dissect my work. For the most part I already knew what their concerns would be. As you attend print competitions if you pay attention you can learn what is and is not acceptable with competition print. Now I need to figure out how to avoid those same mistakes as I move forward with my future portraits.

Book Club





I shoot a few pictures for a local writer, Maggie Shea, who just had an article published in November / December 2007 issue of Mothering magazine. They did not run any of my pictures, but it is a fun article to read about a local mom and daughters book club that has been on going for over 10 years. Check out the article and here are a few of my favorite shots for the session.

Halloween



So October was pretty crazy. I have been trying to get caught up in my intern class. Between interning and my classes I have not had any time to post a new entry. I have 3 or 4 photo shoots to post plus keeping up with my new sessions. Amy went as Bob the Builder for her first Halloween. The first piece of candy she got to eat was her choice of a tootsie roll. She asks about the candy " is this one chalk a let?"very sweet. Our good friend and Auntie to Amy Julie came over for the Pumpkin carving.
