updates on the Fuller Life

I think its long overdue for an update. 

Summertime is in full swing. 

That means, sunglasses, swimming, sun block (cause 2/3 of our family are real gingers).

*I just got a new 17-50mm lens. Tried it out on some of these.*

Enjoy!

Oceans in Love: Band shoot

This was one of thee most challenging shoots in my photography career. 

The rain was a struggle, but here are my favorites.

I want to thank my beautiful husband (Rusty, the red bearded one in this crew) who encouraged me to 'paint with light' in our pool in the pitch dark. 

Check out Oceans music here!

Enjoy!
