As promised, a few more images from the ultra-photogenic and ultra-talented Keelin. A little bird (Facebook) told me she has an interview with Brooks in California for video-making. Good luck Keelin!

This week’s theme at I heart Faces is in celebration of Breast Cancer Awareness month. Many of us have been touched by this disease and it's important to remind everyone what month it is and encourage women to get a mammogram.
Recently I had a fun afternoon with 10 gorgeous volleyball players. Talk about setting yourself up for low self-esteem! I got to shoot the Wenatchee Valley Knights women's volleyball team for a little fundraising project we're working on. Not sports shots, but more personality portraits to match the month they will be in a calendar. We're making a calendar for the team to sell as part of their fundraiser for a community service and volleyball event trip to Nicaragua in February. These girls are so great, they have a huge emphasis on community service, equal to their drive to win. They all maintain great GPA's, practice 5 days a week and are there for each other through thick and thin. It was awesome getting to spend a little time off the court with each of them. I'll post when and where the calendars are available as well, it's a worthwhile cause for a group of deserving, hard-working young women.
It didn't get off to a great start. Walla Walla took the first two games making for a long road to the win. But the Knights did just that, upping their game and taking the next three for the match win. These girls always play better under pressure and it's exciting to see them determine to win, get focused and be tough. (Don't quote me) but I believe this makes their record 21-3. Pretty impressive for such a young program. Go Knights!
This was a tough sell. The daughter who hates having her photo taken. Hates photos of herself. I had to pretty much beg, plead, bribe and cajole to get a few senior photos of her. Feeling pretty happy that she, as my "toughest client", likes them. So proud of you honey! I know it's a tough year but I have no doubt you are up to the challenge.
