Shooting Star Photography bio picture

I'm glad you found me!

Welcome to my blog! Take a look around. Here you'll find recent posts of sneak peeks from sessions I have done, as well as contests and news.

Photography gives me a creative outlet and a way for me to freeze time. Time goes by even faster with a child, and photographing mine allows me to keep her small and with me forever.  God gave me the gift of photography. I share my gift of capturing and freezing time with others, and the thought of how I am able to do that for my clients, family, and friends  - makes me smile!

FINALISTS for Giveaway! VOTE here

Wow, thank you all so very much for the overwhelming response I had for this contest. I loved hearing from former clients and seeing their favorite pictures, and some even told me what their picture meant to them.  I felt such an emotional connection to each submission, that I quickly realized when I had over 30 pictures to chose from that I was in WAY over my head. There was no way I could pick, so I had help from an unbiased 3rd party select the 10 finalists! If it were up to me, I would’ve selected them all!

I included a couple of comments that I received from two mothers on the interpretation of their pictures that I thought were especially touching. But don’t let that sway your vote… :)

The photographs will precede the voting poll, so don’t forget to vote at the bottom!

The polls close on Wednesday, May 13th at 5 p.m. Contestants, please make sure to send this post to all your friends and family so they can vote for your child’s picture!

finalist1

From Stefanie, Cristian’s mother - “The picture I selected here is special to me because it exemplifies how blessed we are - to me it says “thank you, Lord, for Cristian’s life…”  In the pic Jose is holding up our son to the Lord and saying thank you…we give the Lord all the praise and glory and dedicate our precious son to Him!  :)”

From Trin, Gustav’s mother - “We love how artistic and expressive it is and how strong it made him look, even at 2 weeks old. It’s also indicative of your photography because it’s so very much our baby, but still universal. This shot is more about the quality of your photography than our baby.”
