2010 In Review -- Portraits and Candids

~My photo gallery~  Christine Anne at Smugmug  ~My photo gallery~

Since my professional photography business is still in its infancy, I don't have a full year of images to look back on.  But I would like to post some of my favorite images from the year, of portraits and candid shots.

I'm grateful to the Lord for pushing me through the door into this photography business!  It has been a privilege and an honor to photograph those who've hired me this year.  I'm humbled that they (you!) esteem my work enough to want me to capture their own families, and children, and events.  Enjoy these images with me as I look back on 2010!

Though this was from 2009, it is one of my favorites!

She Could be My Daughter!

Proofs are finalized and photos are chosen!  I wanted to share a glimpse of photos of this young lady who is graduating!!!  You may see the whole album at my SmugMug gallery (click above), and Facebookers can access it, too.

Yes, she could be my daughter.  Joanna has a practical side that resonates with my heart, but she also has a ready smile and, after this photo session, I know I can get her to laugh.

Okay, Joanna, tell me that muffin joke again.  I just don't get it!  (I still don't get it...)

Enjoy the photos!

Bryan: The Shepherd's Shepherd

I love what Israel--who used to be called Jacob--said about the Lord as he pronounced blessing upon his son Joseph's two sons.  Israel called Him:

...the God who has been my shepherd all my life to this day...

Genesis 48:15 (partial) nasb

Having heard Bryan's story, it makes me smile to know that the Lord has been his shepherd all his young life.  And it has been a blessing to see this young man grow up wanting to become a shepherd!  So, I was honored--and humbled--to be invited to be a teensy-tiny photographic part of this young man's upcoming graduation plans.

Here are my favorite photos--plus a slideshow--of Bryan, on the job at Kline Creek Farm.
