LoveBug Portraits -- Lucas Sneak Peek

On Saturday I had the joy to meet Lucas and learn about some of his recent adventures. At first I don't think Lucas knew what to think of me, but as we got further into the session I think he, like many of my other clients, began to see I am a little crazy, crazy in a good way that is :) Thanks for a fun afternoon guys!

Here are a few from his session.









Happy early birthday Lucas! You were a real pleasure to work with.

Happy Mothers Day

Just wanted to wish you all a happy mothers day. Here's some oldies. Looking at these I kind of felt I was looking at a younger version of myself.

Happy Mother's Day mom.

SHe and the people of Guatemala

As many of you know I love to help others. One of my friends turned me on to the SHe humanitation project which helps the people of the Polochic Valley in Guatemala. It so happens that my old friend Scott Porter is heading up this project. Props for Scott and gang.


The goals of the project are to:
  1. Provide assistance to a region of great need.

  2. Provide training to local people, allowing them to move towards becoming a self-developing community.

  3. Provide opportunities to experience Guatemalan culture through working side-by-side with the local people, participating in joint community and social events, and visiting the homes of Guatemalans.

  4. Inspire others to pursue or create similar projects to serve around the world in the future.

I am going to cash in my flyer miles and credit card points to make this happen. I currently I am short $300. In hopes of raising I will be auctioning off a few prints. The winners will make tax ductable donations to SHe and not to me.

These are one of a kind prints and will only be printed once for the winner. This means you will own a one of a kind photo from your truely. You choose the size and I will cut a custom matte to fit your frame and mail or hand deliver the print.  For those of you who don't have a mothers day present yet this would be great gift. 

The starting bid on each print is $50. If you would like to bid on a photo that other then the ones listed in this post that you have seen on my blog please email me and I would love to add it to the list.

Tomorrow I plan on adding some california / Hawaii pictures that I have taken in the past, stay tooned.

Act fast this auction will end midnight May 12 pst.

If you are interesting on bidding on a print please email the print number and your bid about to tanni@lovebugportraits.com

Please help me make this a success. 

Thank You!

Baby T and Memories for Sale

This is kind of casserole of a post. The last few days have been filled with many images from a variety of places.

On Wednesday I tried to take some more new born pics of my new niece but she fought the whole way and we ended up calling it off but not before I could get a few pictures. As you can see she wasn't as happy I was to be taking them. In one of the pics you can clearly see her giving me the finger. I guess I deserved it, I did take off all her clothes in the front yard and put her in a basket while she was trying to sleep. Who wouldn't get pissed off at that?







The next day I went to a thrift store with a friend and came across an odd thing. People who left family pictures in frames that were donated to the thrift store. For someone that takes pictures for a living I just scratched my head and wondered about the stories behind the pictures. There were several of the same person in multiple frames, divorce, death ...?

I would love to hear some creative stories that some of you might make up to go long with them.
