We bought a house out in the country last year and it came with a barn - not exactly the big red barn with a hay loft that I had been dreaming of, but a barn nonetheless. I took a few photos of my kids in the barn last week and I love how they turned out. I think it's finally time to replace the photos on my living room wall with a few of these!
















I love finding new spots to shoot in! When you're deciding on a location for your session, don't think you need a place that's spectacular - chances are, you'll only see a small section of the location in most of your photos anyway. This is a photo of the outside of our barn - not exactly spectacular! The magic comes in when you find the small spots of good light and add a fun kid!

By the way, the barn was decorated for our Easter party in this photo - it doesn't usually have a purple banner (or crosses) on it! It's also full of stuff - mostly the kids' bikes and wagons and balls and stuff.

I photographed Jacob and Maddie both separately last year, but with graduation looming, their moms wanted a few photos of the cousins together for their open house invitations. We met up at Deming Park in Terre Haute for a quick little session. Jacob and Maddie are both awesome and I know they're going to have a great time (and learn a lot, of course!) when they both start at ISU this fall.
