Just a quick look at one of just the gals from Sunday's family session:
I had a great time and hope everyone's visit was fun!

For some reason I didn't use this old favorite location of mine much last season, so it was a treat to have a senior session here. K. was a divine model and was like a seasoned pro at positioning for the perfect light by the end of our shoot.
Although it's a bit of a hike to the best spots, I think it was worth it!

We've had some pretty yucky weather here lately. Lots of afternoon thunderstorms, which makes it difficult to shoot (and to work on the computer!). Luckily the weather has been pretty good to me with my preferred shooting time in the evening. This senior session was no different – the drive up was a bit wet, but the sun was peeking from behind the clouds when we started. The ground was wet too, but C. was good about getting a little dirty (though we did find some stones to sit on, including this strangely neat stone table):
you may recognize this spot from a wedding last year. I was psyched to shoot there again and do a bit of exploring, but couldn't resist this shot!

Just thought I’d share a little of what I do when I’m not taking pictures or tending to children.
This year we decided to build our garden via the ‘gardening by the square foot’ method. Things are finally starting to grow and look like an actual garden! Today we ate our first peas (yep, we planted them late) and we have tomatoes and peppers that will be ready soon. We’ve already eaten all the lettuce (romaine and green leaf), which was great.
Here’s a shot of two of our four 4×4 boxes (it’s amazing what you can fit in them!). In these are tomatoes, sweet & hot peppers, basil, mint, marigolds, parsley (front box) and broccoli (those really tall plants in the front), squash,
cucumber, pumpkin, marigolds, thyme, rosemary and beans on the trellis (back box).
oh, and potted petunias to keep certain bean bugs away…
and a fun one of the chives from a box not pictured:
and this is mint, which we have growing EVERYWHERE, but I don’t mind…

My first session back from maternity leave was a great one! Meet my two Class of 2009 senior representatives. I love shooting rep sessions because I get to play and do some fun shots just for me. L. was a sport (literally) about working with me to get the perfect cheer shot, and E. was a trooper w/her trash the dress attitude by wading in the stream (yes, we do have some shots where she is knee deep in the water).
I’m also kicking off the new fall season with a brand new website at http://teyaphoto.com!
Please give it a look to see new session types and details and bunches of new gallery images. I’d love to hear what you think and will give the first two new clients who book an on-location session through the website contact form a complimentary digital file from your session (use it on your holiday cards or facebook or to send to friends!).

A swingset! What every three-year-old needs. With the new baby coming I’m really trying to get some photo time in with the soon-to-be big sister.

Little E., 5 months, in the botanical garden. Looks like so much going on in that little head!

I’m back from vacation! I have a few things to catch you all up on (new ventures and exciting shoots, etc.), but I wanted to share these two seniors I had the pleasure of photographing this weekend.

From high school seniors to babies both are fun and creatively challenging! Here are a few recent baby shoots (and Miss E., who is not quite a baby anymore at 2, but I wanted to include her w/her sister).
