light

merideth's post today on shutter sisters was beautiful. and it reminds me of what i’ve been missing! as you know, i’ve been slammed with work, unable to pick up my camera much and truly appreciate the loveliness of the season. photographer friends are going bizerko capturing all of the beautiful holiday light bokeh while i sit staring at logos and web sites.

don't get me wrong. i’m so very appreciative of the work i have right now... but an itsy bitsy tiny little break would be nice. i haven't even made sugar cookies for cryin’ out loud! my family is starting to wonder if it’s really christmas time!

ok, i’m done ranting. but i did want to submit a little something from a shoot this past fall where i found the most gorgeous fall light... just as the sun was leaving us. i love the tree bokeh in the background and that this little one is literally mid-wish.

i wonder what she’s wishing for.  looks like she’s got plenty of dandelions to accommodate all she can think of!

today is my birthday, so maybe i get a wish or two too?

i wish for more light like this. even though i know it’s there for the taking...
ok, i wish for more time to capture the light. that’s more accurate a wish for me.

i wish for more moments like this—the in between moments.
in between the “perfect shots” lies the candid and imperfect moments that capture something more real. and with light like this, you can't go wrong.
