beautiful...

ok, ok i may have put a few too many pics for one entry, but i had such a blast taking these pictures. it's my sister... what can i say, she is my favorite subject to photograph. not only is she gorgeous, but she has become very photogenic. yes it is true, there was a time in the beginnings of my 'career' that she did not take the best of pictures. but now we are past that, and it is encouraging to know that with practice comes perfection... on both ends of the camera! carissa and i have gotten to the point now where i can just give her an idea and she can go with it... or i can pose her and she can make it natural. i love it! it is almost like having my own personal model... she could be... she should be... maybe i should look into that!



on this one i actually caught her laughing... i love "action" shots where you really just get the person in mid laugh. she can be such a goob sometimes... have i said that i love her yet?

this one is one of my favorite abstract shots. it isn't completely abstract but it is very different, not so traditional...

i think we are going to blow this up and use it for decoration in her room. she has a real different sense of art and i think this is just cool... plus it would go great with her decore.

last but not least, she was posing for another picture here, and then heard something and looked off to the side, it just looked so relaxed and unposed... i had to capture it and make it one of my favorites!

i am so thankful for such a wonderful, loving and well down right beautiful family... God has made my job easy... he created the beauty and i just attempt to freeze it!
