Crush on Throttlegirl

Back in November we photographed KQ,soon to be known across the land as, Throttlegirl. KQ is a biker babe on a mission--to share her passion for life and positive living with the world. In 2012, she will be taking off across America on her burnt orange Harley Davidson spreading her motivational spirit along the way. A documentary crew will be filming her participation in the Hoka Hey Challenge--a 14-day motorcycle endurance race that covers 10,000 miles of American and Canadian soil. If you would like to follow Throttlegirl's adventures, visit her on Facebook.

Crush on Kelly Ann Music { soul folk singer }

You just can't call this work. Spending a crisp Nevada morning, running the hills, and photographing the true free-spirited soul, Kelly Ann Miller,  is a great way to pass the hours. Couple it with her mountain air solo and downtown courtyard concert and you have divine. Her song, Rejoice, seemed like a fitting piece to highlight here. 


As a last minute thought, I grabbed my video camera thinking I could catch some moving pictures of our session. Once we started to film, I realized the battery was close to dead. We had a whopping 70 seconds of raw footage. Needless to say, not a lot to play with, let alone to create a skosh short.  Thankfully, we don't really need the images as we have Kelly Ann's voice to glide us through to make a delicate and subtle music mini.

 The crisp cool colors or the drama of black and white?

Spending the day, running the streets of downtown Reno, and getting to know a wonderfully talented and wonderful person just ain't half bad. Not work. Not work at all. Simply grateful.

But in the meantime, I want to leave you with another great tune as we took a break from the photography session in downtown Reno. I apologize for my jumpy filming--I was enjoying myself too much to concentrate. Enjoy...

As always, thanks for dropping by. Leave your thoughts so we know you've visited.

Crush on I Heart Faces | On Your Feet

Wow--that was a long time away from I Heart Faces to tackle the super busy family portrait season. I've started to kick my own feet up a little as we settle into the Christmas spirit with friends and our family. Here's an "On Your Feet" shot for this week's challenge-- Mama had the baby's foot photo from our newborn session made into a tattoo on her own foot. Here's the tootsies one year later...
