Bear-y Cute!

Tomorrow I have a newborn shoot for a very cute little boy, and I couldn't resist the urge to whip up this cute little "bear" hat for the session.  I can't wait to see him wear it!!

Stay tuned at www.laurademarsphotography.blogspot.com for upcoming photos!

Check out her blog!

Yesterday, my friend Rosa shared this link on facebook.  It's a birth story from a woman who writes beautifully.  If I hadn't been surrounded by people as I read it, I would have been weeping like a baby.  After you're done reading it, fixing your eye make up, and throwing away all the kleenex's- check out the rest of her blog.  It's pretty awesome.  Enjoy!

Hello new friend...

Let's just say I've been a little busy lately-a little busy with a friend I like to call the D90!  I was so excited to get my new camera in the mail, and no-it's not the fanciest camera around (I still can't believe you can spend up to $10k on a camera...) but it will definitely meet my needs on a professional (my summer is starting to fill up with shoots!), and personnel level.  I've been busy learning the camera, and getting comfortable with it.  I think being a parent can make you sentimental about anything that has to do with your kids lives, because I was a little sad to sell my D40, that camera and I were attached at the hip since Ingrid was born.  Anyway, I am sure I will create many new memories with my new camera.  I still am planning on getting a 50mm fixed lens (Thanks for the help Megan!), as well as an external flash.  BUT in the mean time I've been reading up on DIY lighting techniques....I thought I would share this fun link with all sorts of way to "rig" your built in flash.  Fun fun fun.
