Us

Oops!  I've facebooked this and I've flickr'd it, but I just realized I've never actually blogged it.  Being a photographer you'd think I would have oodles and oodles of family photos, right? 

WRONG. 

I'm always behind the camera and never in front of it, but my best friend is a photographer so you'd think we would just get together and shoot each other's familys, right? 

WRONG. 

Misty Bull and I have been friends for over five years and every year we say we're going to get together and shoot each other's families, but we never do.  We both get so busy shooting clients that we never make time for ourselves, but last fall we finally decided to practice what we preach.  I shot her and she shot me.  (Sounds painful, huh?)  Here is the result of Misty's hard work…and trust me when I say she WORKED to get this shot.  My clients are always worried about whether or not their kids will cooperate for photos.  Sometimes they do.  Sometimes they don't.  And mine are no different.  Misty worked her magic while my kids cooperated for a split second and then they just wanted to play with Richard and The Bull Boys because that's way more fun than being photographed. 

So, this is us.  The Morrows.  We're all punks.  But I finally have a family portrait to go in the empty frame that has hung in my living room for oh, I don't know….EIGHT MONTHS!  I found the frame at a vintage shop and instantly knew what would go in it.  It just took me a little while to fill it, but that frame now holds a gorgeous 24×36 canvas that I will forever be grateful to Misty for.  Not only because it's beautiful, but also because my mother-in-law has stopped harassing me about getting her a family photo that actually has Lucee in it.  ZOIKS!!! 

Now that I've got my family on canvas I think everyone should so we're running a canvas sale!  All fine art canvas prints will be 20% off from now until June 30.  This includes past sessions, too, so email me to have a past gallery re-activated. 

Happy Monday!
