Goodbye and Hello

2010-06-09T23:33:00.003-05:00

Goodbye to this blog.
Hello to my NEW blog at http://www.marciemeredithblog.com/
I'm excited about my new blog-site (blog+website)! Please change your links and keep up with me on my new blog :)

My Momma

2010-05-09T12:10:00.002-05:00

Happy Mother's Day to all you women out there! Mothers, grandmothers, sisters, aunts, and inspirational women.
Here's my favorite Momma!(and my sister-my favorite sister)

Melissa and Daniel

2010-05-04T11:34:00.002-05:00

So, this shoot was awesome. Instead of saying "cheese", Melissa would say "cheers" everytime she would smile for the camera. Awesome. I laughed alot. They haven't ever had photos taken together but I think they look like pros.

Smokin!

Ariana Quinceanera!

2010-05-01T14:36:00.002-05:00

Ariana had her Quinceanera last week! It was really exciting and full of so many emotions that I hope she'll remember forever. And she looked so goregeous! And what a party!

She has two pairs of shoes because it is a tradition that the father changes her shoes before the first dance. Isn't that sweet!

There were TWO stretch limos for Ariana and her court. Wow!

She even was sung to!

Matt and Pataya

2010-04-19T11:38:00.003-05:00

The nicest people you will ever meet. And oh SO in love :)

Ariana

2010-04-14T13:35:00.002-05:00

Ariana is having her Quinceanera in a few weeks and it should be a blast! Here are her portraits! I don't really have to say that she is such a cute girl because that's obvious, but I'll say it anyways :)

Another sneak peek!

2010-04-10T13:04:00.002-05:00

So cool :)

Ashley

2010-04-07T17:08:00.002-05:00

So, Ashley is graduating from Texas Tech this year! Yipee! Ashley brought everything she loves to her shoot including Raider gear, her dog, and boyfriend. Of course I had to photograph all. Fun times!

Sneak peek :)

2010-03-29T23:13:00.003-05:00

Gotta love natural light. It just makes me happy.

Blast from the past

2010-03-10T23:48:00.003-06:00

So I was going through a session from last year. Sometimes I do that and re-edit an original file...wow I know...anyway this one struck me. I didn't originally edit it but after I started working on it I really liked it! Why didn't it immediately catch my eye? I think it's interesting to look back with "fresh" eyes. Sometimes I think hey that was pretty cool and sometimes...what was I thinking? Well here's Steph :)

Randomness

2010-03-06T18:52:00.005-06:00

When I'm so excited about something, I tend to blab it to everyone...so this is totally unrelated but oh well. I went to the movie Alice in Wonderland today and holy smokes I am in LOVE with the costume design! Something you might not know about me is that I have a degree in Clothing, Textiles, and Design. As a part of that, I did some costume design and work in the costume shop. It was awesome! So anytime I see a movie or a play with thrilling costumes/makeup/scenery, I become like a kid seeing Disneyworld for the first time :)

This the design for Alice's court dress. I couldn't find any photos but it is my favorite. It's black and white and red all over!

Jess and Blake's wedding

2010-02-24T20:10:00.002-06:00

Sorry for the delay!!! I've been keeping these to myself. I know, rude. So here goes...

Timothy

2010-02-10T13:44:00.002-06:00

Jess and Blake

2010-01-27T16:39:00.002-06:00

Yay!! This is my cous Jess and her Blakey :) We did these just a few days before the wedding actually. I'm so glad we took the extra time because we were able to go to a few locations and have some fun too!

They were married January 2, 2010- 1/2/10 :)

Jess and Blake sneak peek :)

2010-01-23T22:42:00.003-06:00

I am so excited to show you more of these two lovebirds!

Rollins family

2010-01-21T12:11:00.004-06:00

This was a quick session right before I left town. All of the family members came home for Christmas so we needed to get some group shots! It had been a while :) It was actually quite nice outside, considering that it was December! What a nice family.

I'm back in Lubbock- whew!

2010-01-20T12:17:00.004-06:00

Wow Tyson and I had a whole month of holiday vacation! Crazy huh? Well, if you consider 2500 miles of driving a vacation then yes, that's what we did. Our family lives in Idaho and miraculously we had good, dry roads 95% of the trip. But we got to see lots of family which is always so wonderful! There was also a bit of Super Mario Brothers madness...oh man I need a Wii. Anyways, I have a few sessions that I need to post, but for now, if anyone wants to send me a present, by all means you are welcome to send me a shootsac by Jessica Claire :) It's a lens bag to use at a shoot for easy access to several lenses, flashes, and other items. So cool!

3 Men and a Little Lady

2009-11-25T23:36:00.002-06:00

I love the perfect moment that happens with a child when the camera somehow captures the split second of a smile or a laugh or just a curious look. It only lasts for a second, believe me...but that is the wonderful magic of a photograph! We get to keep that split second with us forever. How cool is that!! Here's the Farrell children, such nice kids!

What a look!!! haha. That pouting power will come in handy down the road.

Sara and Dane Engagements!

2009-11-17T15:50:00.007-06:00

Sara suspected the proposal but was shocked and so excited when he actually pulled out the ring that she jumped up and screamed "YES!!!" before Dane had technically asked :) These two are such nice people and I can't wait for the wedding next summer. Sara and I even "bonded" with our mutual love of Harry Potter and Twilight...yes, we are nerds. There were too many fabulous photos to choose from! They even brought their "babies" (2 dogs) along so I just had to include some of them as well! So I guess you get a long post today.

They have peacocks that just wander around here! Cool!

The peacocks caused a little bit of a problem...

They met at North Texas :)

Gifford family!

2009-11-14T13:38:00.003-06:00

Oh it was so beautiful out for this shoot. Lubbock actually has some color! wahoo! The Giffords are so sweet and have a photographer in the making-Rebecca has the eye :) There were a lot of closed eyes among all the photos I took...haha...but I think we managed to get some cute ones! Enjoy.

Sara and Dane sneak peek!

2009-11-10T23:52:00.007-06:00

Yeah for engagement sessions! I had such a blast!! Lot's more coming soon :)

Sneak peek- gorgeous!

2009-11-07T20:46:00.003-06:00

Isn't she so pretty! This is from the Gifford family shoot. More to come...

Kayla and Cassie

2009-10-29T16:41:00.002-05:00

When Cassie (who I had a previous session with) joined her sister for a shoot, she became a totally different girl! It was so funny. They giggled and goofed around which made for fun girly shots! We tried pretty hard to find a "fall" looking location. The girls' mother and I are both used to the northwest and northeast of the country where there are so many colors throughout the landscape. So here's Lubbock in the fall!

Kiddos with the beautiful eyes!

2009-10-28T20:34:00.022-05:00

These kids are so precious. The girls were such little posers! The little boy was so excited to be crawling around on a train, which translates into me crawling around on (and under) the train so I could catch some fun shots :) I had such a great time with these children that it made my job feel like play instead of work! Thanks guys!

Sisters sneak peek!

2009-10-26T16:45:00.004-05:00

Here's a little preview of my shoot with these cute sisters!

Stevens Family

2009-10-24T19:37:00.015-05:00

I had such a great time with this family. The youngest boy cracked me up! This first photo was probably one of the only shots that he smiled for me. I must not be very exciting. Maybe I need to wear a costume or learn some stand up comedy...

There he is again not wanting to look at me. haha. This isn't a blink. He just closed his eyes for like a minute and wouldn't look! So funny :)

Cassie

2009-10-21T22:42:00.016-05:00

Finally I'm getting a full post! This girl is the cutest. She was so great and giggled the whole time which made it so fun!

More sneak peeks!

2009-10-18T20:51:00.015-05:00

Can you believe their eyes! These siblings were so cute and even invited me to their house :) It's crazy how angelic children look in a photograph. These kids are no exception! More to come...

More from Stephanie!

2009-10-08T12:06:00.011-05:00

This was so fun! I didn't know if Lubbock was going to be easy to find some cool locations. Turns out there are a few :)

Kiley and Jeff Wedding

2009-08-14T22:48:00.012-05:00

Hello everyone! I'm getting started with my own photography business and I helped my dad shoot a wedding this summer- Jeff and Kiley. I absolutely loved it and am so excited to do more! I've been editing both mine and my dad's photos as well as creating a book so I included some of his because I wanted to give the bride and groom a preview of both. Enjoy!
