This beauty is graduating from Gem State this spring.  The weather was tempermental, we had rain, hail and sunshine!  And, Bruce and Barbie, her parents, just had to take the opportunity to grab a quick portrait also.  :)

This last one is a sepia tint with selective color brought back in, Beach Beauty!

Here is a composite of Chastin.  I really like this one, the outfits all being the same really gives the composite a classy feel.  In order to continue with that style I photographed the background and then made the matting material of that image.  What do you think?

Heather's carefree nature really shines in her portratis, and her puppy Taz is the sweetest gal ever! 

Chynna came to see us on Tuesday, she is the best tennis player at Borah!  I LOVE the red tulips with the purple shirt!

This last one is a sepia color tint image.  We make this using layers, converting the top to sepia then painting back in the color we want.  LOVE it!

Chastin came in yesterday....we had a blast!  The portrait garden is really popping and Chastin is beautiful!

It was a treat to have Nikki in today.  She is so cute!

The weather has been beautiful and we have been busy!  Here are some of what we worked on or created today.

Jesse and Marie are both 2010 graduates, Krew members for Cindy Sherman Photography. 

Nichole graduates this spring.  We created these images for her on Monday.

Recently I have been taking some webinars to learn how to 'Paint like Monet"  Here is a recent sample, the first one I dare share.  These are the children of Debra Cooper-Stewart from the Barnyard Babies.

Let me know what you think!

Today is the day of the modeling opportunity for Boise in the National Charity Model Search and I am proud to  say that Mya had the most votes Monday morning when the winner of the modeling opportunity  was selected!  Go Mya!  Saundra, Mya's Mom said "I am even asking people I don't know to go vote for Mya!"  Just to refresh your memory, here she is again!

Voting ends Thursday night at midnight.  Keep voting!  We would love for one of our studio's kids to be the Boise winner and qualify for the next round.  Votes cost $1 and all proceeds go to www.nilmdts.org

Right now, Mya is in second place, Kassidy is in fourth and Nathan is fifth.  ...
