NEW BLOG!!!!

Hello All,
This blog has changed to
http://www.meganrieff.blogspot.com/
You can still view pictures and old posts on this blog. The new blog was only born on Monday, January 11, 2010 so there are more photo and art samples on this blog at the moment. HOWEVER, the new blog is soon to catch up as I have set weekly goals and am actually going to do a good job at keeping up with the new blog.
Hope to see you there (at the new blog of course)

Well guys, I once again begin this blog with "I know it's been a while". But I have good reasons... 1) I got married!!!!

2) I moved to the Nashville area

and finally

3) I GOT MARRIED!!! (to my best friend- It doesn't get much better than that)

Anyway, I will probably be linking this blog to a new blog, since the name has changed and all. There is so many beautiful things around here though, so I hope to get some good photo shoots going soon (I think I missed a lot of the really pretty fall trees though). Anyway, once I get the new blog up and running there will be a link posted on this page- and maybe a few wedding pictures. My friend Sarah took pictures for us and she is amazing, so I'm really excited to see them.

I've also been following a couple of people's blogs and they have inspired me to do a better job on my blog, so I'm thinking about trying a little harder on the new blog.... but we shall see. lol.. Life does get a little crazy sometimes, and you never really know what's gonna happen.

What a beautiful family!

I discovered (thanks to my dad) a beautiful garden called "Will Rogers Garden" in Oklahoma City. If you live near by you definitely need to check it out. It is AMAZING!!!! SERIOUSLY!!!! I also discovered (thanks to Steph) a beautiful family. I had the opportunity to do a photo session with them a couple of weeks ago, and it was so much fun!

Their oldest daughter had so much spunk and personality I was going to do a special photo shoot of her in a sunflower field. I had been wanting to do this shoot, but just hadn't found the right person. Unfortunately, the morning I went out to the sunflower field before the shoot all the sunflowers had died. It was very sad, but maybe I'll get a chance to do it next year. As always... here ya' go:

The picture above is one of my favorites. There are a few others with the leaf and I really love all of them... in fact I may make a separate post just for them! So if I do, sorry about being redundant.

(after looking at these I bet you have no idea why I wanted to do a session with her in a sunflower field. lol... she is soooooo cute!)

Some of the latest photo sessions...

My goodness it has been crazy busy around here. I've been working A LOT and doing photo sessions quite consistently. I feel a bit like every day is deja vu... I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not, ha ha.... Definitely a good thing as far as the photography goes. I'm super excited about all the work I've had lately. So a great big thank you to all of you who have invested in my photography....

This was from a photo session with a family here in Oklahoma. Amber (the mom) was awesome. She was great and has a naturally artistic eye. She had the idea to do these pictures in the field by her house, and if you've looked at this blog much at all you know how I feel about photos in fields... I LOVE THEM! Anyway here ya' go:

Look at those eyes... Amazing!

...and those eyes too... it must run in the family!

This is from the photo session with Steph and her two girls.. We got an awesome opportunity to go out to the farm her grandpa used to own to take some of the photos, so it was really cool, and nostalgic.

You can't get much cuter than that!

I have to admit, I was a little distracted by all the farm animals... I just wanted to play with the puppies and calf. ha ha...

Finally

Ok, guys, I know it seem like I am really bad at this whole blogging thin.  I do realize that I'm not an award winning blogger or anything, but I swear it isn't really my fault.  It is very inconvenient not having internet access at one's house.  Anyway, needless-to-say, I finally have photos ready to go and let you guys out there see, barring any unforeseen uploading problems.  

The following photos are from my first real session since I've been in Oklahoma.  I was so excited to be able to do a session.  Particularly because I was going through extreme withdrawals from not having any sessions to do.  The photos are of the Ohl family.  They are an adorable family with an ridiculously cute little girl.  

Enjoy

Well, it's been a while.

I haven't had much going on up to this point to really update the blog lately.  But I am finally getting out of my lazy slump and starting some new projects... and I really think it is good for my piece of mind.  First of all I'm making a really cool storage chest from an old antique trunk.  (I will be posting pictures of this soon.)  The final product will be for sale, although, I have a feeling that I'm going to want to keep it.  I am also doing some research for a new painting.

I was going to upload some photos, but for some reason I'm having some issues with uploading today.  So, new pictures to come later.

Since I have recently moved, and not many people know me, I have not had any photo shoots recently... and I'm kinda going through withdrawals.  So as I was sitting at the table eating dinner with my dad and grandparents I was inspired to take pictures of my grandpa who had been outside working.  Here is the outcome.

this is a halter that has the family brand on it.

I have to say I am quite fond of the above... and below pictures... I really missed being around horses when I lived in Plainview.
