This month I’m taking a class called ‘the joy of love,’ so I’ll be posting my ‘homework’ on here as I go!  These won’t all be professional quality, but more like a learning experience on different levels other than ‘the perfect picture.’  Which would be why it’s called ‘the joy of love!’  The focus will […]

The weather warmed up just a smidge and left us with a fabulous day for a photo session with this beautiful high school senior! And can I just say that I love it when seniors are confident in themselves?  I was not confident at that age, but this lovely lady sure is!   Bookmark this […]

Every time I reveal a portrait in black & white my dad says the same thing… “Don’t do those black & white ones… we have color now.” It’s funny and cute, but it’s not even a question to me. In case you haven’t noticed from my portfolio, I love color.  I love it when color […]

Remember in high school senior portraits where they take a close up of your face, and then charge $30 if you want them to remove that zit? I remember. Because I wanted that stupid zit removed, but $30? When I set up Fowler Photo’s pricing structure, I remembered back to that time, and want to […]

Editing for me is all about the details.  Whether it be removing my face & camera from the reflection of a Christmas ornament, changing toe-nail polish, or making power lines disappear, I strive to give each picture the attention it needs. This picture looked pretty good straight out of the camera (SOOC).  I love the […]

There are a lot of things that can lead to a truly wonderful photo session.  This Christmas session for Miss Rylie was definitely one of those.  She was familiar and comfortable with me and my camera (she’s my nieces, and I’ve been snapping her picture since she was two days old… she’s starting to get […]

Someone had a birthday!  I took some family photos for Lauren and Allie a few months ago and now Allie is turning one! There’s the birthday girl! And boy, Allie had the cutest outfit on! She totally dug into the cake! Check out that happy baby! I love all the pink and pearls. And she had […]

I love taking pictures of extended family.  It shows how families aren’t just about a mom, dad and a kid… it’s about the bigger picture… and everyone plays an important role. Here are some of my faves of a recent session.  And hey, it’s my in-laws! I love this shot (below) in particular.  It’s my […]

Before we moved to Virginia, I organized a photowalk in my hometown.  We had a couple of teen models there and had a ton of fun!  The point was to connect with other photography enthusiasts and learn from each other.  Looking at another’s pictures of the same scenes really opened my eyes.  Several images I […]

Well, I realized that I’m a bit behind in showing anything more than sneak peeks lately, so I’ll spend the next few days updating! Here are some of my favorites of the Buchanan family.  Can you guess which one was promised a Happy Meal for being good and smiling for every picture? Hint: Look at […]
