I {heart} Faces - "Faces and Flowers"

For months now I have been telling myself I would enter one of the photo challenges at I Heart Faces  So this weeks theme caught my attention quickly.  Baby "A" is one of the sweetest babies I have had the opportunity to photograph.

Go treat yourself


For all the month of January, Yuki-San has graciously opened up the wall of his restaurant to  a few of us Okinawa Photographers. Head out to Sushi Zen for some amazing sushi by the seawall and take in the photographic works of the photographers. There are photos from myself and fellow photographers, Chris Willson, Pamela Oliveras, Shannon Entwistle (who took the below photo of the three monkeys) and Alexis Rubenstein. Links to others HERE.

Lately it seems like weekends on Okinawa seem to have rain. After a late start the rain held off long enough for this beautiful families shoot.

Trash the Dress - FootSteps Photography Okinawa

Trash The Dress is about trashing or otherwise having fun in a wedding dress or a formal ball gown in a unexpected location. These were all taken in grungy locations no formal gown would normally go to give contrast between the beauty and the grunge. What a great way to trash your dress from this seasons ball or holiday party.


 




 

A good friend of mine, Vanessa from Charming Memories, and I went out with Julienne to trash this dress and have a great time doing it. I look forward to the next time I get to work with these fantastic ladies.

Smash that cake.... FootSteps Photography Okinawa

Baby D turned 1 year old last week. Awww it is hard to believe that it has already been a year since I went to his home to photograph him after his birth. He was and still is such a cutie. Now beginning to be a little man.


Then.


 
Now.

He had a lot of fun with the cake his mommy made just for him. It was gone in no time.

Then it was off to the castle ruins for some outside fun with him and his parents.






The fabric that is in the bucket with Birthday boy D is straight from this website. www.shopthedew.com  She is located on Okinawa and has several cute fabrics and patterns available. The best part is you can touch, feel, and coordinate the fabrics in person instead of depending on the colors online to match. She currently carries Michael Miller fabrics , Robert Kaufman fabrics, etc. and Amy Butler patterns, Bananafana patterns, ModKid patterns, Pink Fig patterns.

A great beach close to home - FootSteps Photography Okinawa

This beach has to be one of the best beaches for families with small children. Beach, rocks, grass, beautiful views and even a small park. Also for this family it is almost out their backdoor from their house.







Beautiful colors were abound today during the shoot. I decided to play around a little with an old-school method I learned during film development classes in collage with this one only with digital methods.
