Sometimes an image will persist so strongly, I have to go back to the session and look at it again.

I think that one of the most powerful aspects of photography is the ability to seek out, uncover and then capture a specific feeling, expression, emotion. It's not uncommon to see every emotion in the world run across the face of a child throughout the course of a day. And it's not like these feelings go away - we still experience them as adults. We've just trained ourselves to be less straightforward.

Here's an image I've been thinking about lately ...

But on this late Spring day, I was lucky enough to spend a breezy, sunshiney afternoon tracking Miss Charlotte as she bounced around lovely Coker Aboretum with her mom and brother Marshall in tow...

with Big Brother Marshall :)

(altogether now!)

It's absolutely crazy how these little beauties keep growing ... this was Marshall and Charlotte five years ago and four years ago, respectively!

I do love how photography has the power to stop time.

Since it's Father's Day (aw, heck, let's give them the whole week!), the girls crafted a special message to D.A.D., using some good old fashioned body language.

He won't be home from Afghanistan until November, but there's clearly no doubt that his daughters are thinking of him ...

If you're interested in reading the article in its entirety (and getting a better look at the photographs), you can do so here.

You can also see more images of the beautiful family here.

I was thrilled to be asked to deliver the Keynote Presentation for the retreat, which will be offering a few days of rest, relaxation and rejuvenation for portrait photographers who work really hard at what they do - not just in their photography careers but in the way they tie it all together with the rest of the lives.

The entire retreat takes place at the The Meritage Resort ... Spa in Napa, so no worries on roughing it ;)

If you're all rested up and ready to get back to work, you can definitely look forward to rolling up your sleeves and getting very detailed about the multiple facets of portrait photography. Join me in my first ever in-studio Portrait Photographer's Workshop this August 16, 2010. We have a pretty fantastic group of people already signed up - amazing to see people come in from all over the country and Canada for this one-day intense workshop on children's photography, natural lighting, studio lighting ... set up, post-processing and more more more...

You can register here!
