I'm in love with a new location.
Haha! Seriously, though...I've been eyeing this bluebonnet field for a few weeks now. It's just GORGEOUS! So, today, we decided to head out there & get a few pictures. It was probably about 4pm, so the sun was pretty bright, but we kinda made it work. :-)
I actually got my whole family dressed in coordinating outfits (okay, they were pretty matchy-match) to try to get a family picture. We haven't had one in ages, I don't think. And, the last one we tried to do in the bluebonnets was before I got into photography, so, yeah...it STUNK! Ha! Here we are:
Yes...we all have some article of grass green clothing on. We're dorks. I know.
Anyway, here are a few more from the field:
Grandma & the girls:
And, then we went on and met Heather's family for dinner. I convinced everyone to meet at a little historical park so that we could take a few picture of mom with all her grandkids. Amazingly, they were pretty cooperative.
There were TONS more good ones, too, but I'm feeling a little sleepy. I've got to get to bed soon.

you never disappoint! these are wonderful! love the color in them...and that group photo i am definitely copying that composition at some point! great job!
Amy, these are absolutely beautiful! I always love your work, but these seem extra special somehow. I love them all soo much. That's an amazing field, and the picture of your mom with her grandkids is so perfect. Your colour is amazing and your composition is always great. Thank you for sharing, these are so inspirational!
WOW you are awesome! These are absolutely gorgeous. I love them all but I think #2 is my favorite, the angle, DOF, etc. Oh and I just bought that same dress for my DD that your older DD is wearing - we got the same taste LOL!
Aw, I've had my morning coffey now I can go on with my day...
Love these. That second picture of your daughter in teh flowers with teh amazing bokeh -- that is one of my favorite pictures ever. Your family pictures are great. I've had my own family pictures in mind for a while now - I need to get out and do the same thing. I'm wondering if I can tell my dad how to take the picture I have in my head if I do all the settings...
Anyway, TFS and I love your pictures - seriously -
I always get so excited to see your post! Your work is FANTASTIC! And makes me wish that I lived near a zoo...and now...a bluebonnet field LoL- The closest field I have is corn in the late summer hahaha.
Gorgeous. The first and last ones are my favorites. You really found a great location with that field. And in the second one, I really just love everything about it. And the color in all of these is amazing. wonderful job, again!
I love the family portrait. Very creative way to get everyone in the shot. Beautiful photos!
those are beautifyl....especially the family one in front of the barn!
These are stunning! I love the second shot so much!! I can't wait to find some flowers around here, once the latest snowstorm is passed! Beautiful color and composition
Wonderful family shots, you guys look great in matching outfits, not dorky at all, makes a gtreat shot all that much better!
I love them all! Great family photo! Now that is is spring, I am atempting to get a real nice family photo too. Man I wish I could find a Bluebonnet field around middle TN!
I enjoy looking at your work. You are such an inspiration for me!
LOVE these!!!The field..the fence...everything!
These are beautiful. I love the one with the fence, how you posed them is just perfect.
These are just beautiful Amy. Love the color in all of these.
wonderful field. colors are super.
Wow Amy. Wow.
You know much I love you, your girls and your stuff but I think these are your best ever. That sky in 1, 2 and 3 are absolutely beautiful and 4 is amazing what with the backlighting. WOW. :)
I am excited to call you a friend! :P
Amy,
I love all your pictures! You're really good at this! I have a question for you. I created some 10x20 collages that I want to print. Do you know where I can get this size printed for a good price? Email me - alishaeades@yahoo.com.
thanks!!
FAB is all I have to say! I always love your stuff.....you should know that by now. #2 is AMAZING, love it! Great location too!
These are awesome! I have to say some of the best blue bonnet ones I have seen...I love how the the ones with the girls really showcase the girls and the blue bonnets just add color...Great shots...all of them!
I absolutely love all of these shots! I hope you don't mind that I totally want to copy all of your ideas! ;) I wish it wasn't so stinkin' cold and windy when we made our trip to the bluebonnets this year...oh well, there's always next year!!
these are so amazing and l to would be in love with this location. You have great subjects
Wow, I'm impressed. You nailed these without blowing out your background, and yet all your subjects are exposed so well too. Man.
I love the barn shot too. I had fun picturing the same shot, but shot lower so you had all the shadows, instead of the sky... how great to have a "grandma" picture with all her grandkids. That's a treasure!
I LOVE the Grandma pics- I have no trouble getting the kids in the picture but my mom is a different story. Did you meter for these? In camera? If so, did you meter off of the sky, grass, or people- how did you get sky so perfect? I'm in awe as usual!
Ok, I TOTALLY want to live there! What an amazing place to shoot! Gorgeous!
These are beautiful! I can't believe that you can capture such wonderful images in such harsh lighting! ....Okay... i can believe it!
Great job!
Oh and Amy - you asked about my 35mm. I LOVE it! It's fast enough for most occasions and it's incredibly sharp with great contrast & bokeh. Be warned; when it first arrived I was a bit shocked. It looks very outmoded and the focus is loud but you get used to it pretty soon. But its good make up for its bad!
Why do you want to sell your 30?
amy, these are fantastic! i love the family shot coming up through the flowers. the colors are great, comp perfect. the trees draw me in to the center of the picture.
i love them all and you did great in full sun!
I LOVE the firs and last. I must take a picture of my family!! After all the boys are only 5.5 yrs, not too bad! lol.
Love your photography Amy, so refreshing always. Great clarity!
These are amazing Amy!!! Love the bluebonnet pics- and the photo of your mom w/the kids is beautiful :)
Those are ABSSOLUTEY gorgeous Amy!! I'm so coming to visit you!!
