Solitude

Some view solitude as a punishment, something that is not pleasant or desirable. Some view solitude as peaceful, calming and inviting.

Solitude is what you make of it; it can vary depending on the day, the hour or where you are in your life.

Wherever you are in your life, I hope that any solitude you find along the path creates a peaceful calmness, is enlightening and enriching to your spirit.

Wishing everyone a very Happy, peaceful Easter.

Every road leads back to thoughts of You

Post processing includes slight desturation, orange color pop.

This particular expression, to me, expresses deep thoughts and thinking of someone special.

But, who knows what could actually be going through this young, beautiful girl's mind.

The youth of today definitely have a much different world to grow up in compared to previous generations. Peer pressure is magnified ten fold.

The fact that these kids keep a good head on their shoulders and stay true to themselves is beautiful and gives hope.

Heartbeat of Mass Transportation

Joel (my husband) works for BNSF railroad, so this image is dedicated to him and all of the hard work he and others do to keep the railroad moving each day. The railroad is a major artery in the movement of goods throughout the country and without it many things we take for granted each day would come to a slow crawl.

In processing this image, I combined sepia and color to create the dark glowing color to the metal.

Brown Eyes

Such a cutie, so sweet and quiet too. Her brown eyes are amazing. Her family came from out of state for their family session. The family was awesome and the session was great!

Natural Beauty

This little girl was a guest at a recent wedding I photographed. She has the most beautiful eyes, and look at those curls! Complete natural beauty; she is going to be gorgeous as she grows.
She was intrigued with the camera. So photogenic, wouldn't it be nice if we all were that way! :-)
