Fall is my favorite time of year

I got to take pictures of the kids at the park a few days ago. I love fall. I love pumpkins, colorful trees, and fallen leaves! I love it!! The kids were excited to be at the park so I got a couple quick pics before they got to busy.


A few shots from the day....














I couldn't pick a favorite but if I HAD to these would be them! :) Thanks for looking!

Keith's Senior shoot!!

I got to do a senior shoot with my cousins (who is like a sister to me) son, Keith. I used to babysit Keith when he was younger and I can't tell you how much time has flown by....



He's a senior now and I got the pleasure to do his senior pictures. We had a great time. They had some excellent locations to capture the memories! I am SO lucky to get to share these special moments with you both. Thanks for allowing me to be a part of this occasion!



I'll email you a link to see the rest of the pics as I get them edited. I have A LOT of pictures to go through. I know this is just a little teaser but here are some shots I have done....













Hope you like them!!!

My first photo shoot!

I was so excited to finally get the start to my business underway! I had a great family to work with so that made things a little easier on me because I was NERVOUS! :) We had the shoot at a local park near the river and we had a great opportunity to catch some awesome shots. I had no idea what to expect with my first shoot but I must say they made it a pleasant one. I really appreciate the opportunity!


Thanks to the S family for letting me get my business started with you. Even though G was excited about being outside and playing I think I got some great shots and I hope you enjoy them.


I have a few more pictures to edit and then I will give you a link so you can check them all out. As for now here is a little sneak peek....remember there is more to come!

Building a Portfolio

I am so excited to be starting a business doing what I am so passionate about. Like everyone starting something new you need practice so I am in the portfolio building stage right now. I am offering a few free shoots to get my name out there and help me develop some of my newly learned skills. I have scheduled my first shoot for this Friday and I am so excited about it. I have already scheduled a maternity/newborn shoot with the same lady and I have yet to take one picture for them.

I would love to have a few more shoots to help me get things going. If your interested please contact me at leslieboyd@embarqmail.com where I can give you further details. Let's get this scheduled so we can take advantage of this beautiful time of year where the leaves and trees are so gorgeous!!

Samples of my work....

I thought it may be appropriate to show some samples of pictures I have taken....

I am excited to get to be taking pictures more frequently. I have a couple sessions that I will be doing in the fall for my portfolio building and would like to get a couple more soon. Things are coming along slowly and I am okay with that...nothing like getting overwhelmed really fast so I am all for the "laidback" start for now. :)



Now onto samples...






These are just a few pictures as my hobby as progressed. :) Thanks for looking. I'll try to add more at a later date.

Starting my own business

I have been taking pictures for over 10 years now. But the last 4 years have when I have really given it my all to learn all I can about my passion. I am so excited to say I will FINALLY be starting my own business. I can't believe it's finally happening. I have been wanting to do this for several years and I decided at this point in my life I need to just jump in feet first. Wish me luck!! :)
