Kids that won't stop moving

I have two very active children.  Most days I can ask nicely and get a few shots of them. But, every now and then we have a day like today where they wouldn't let me get a shot. 

I shot about 20 frames and these are the only two that I liked.  I should also add that I was shooting without a flash and trying to get a bit of bokeh in the background so I wouldn't have to straighten the room.

My son did well and his face is nicely in focus.  My daughter on the otherhand just wouldn't stop, she isn't quite in focus, but I do love this photo of her.  She was trying to hide behind her Daddy's legs but, I could still see her.

Fall Landscape Bokeh

Miz Booshay put up a Fall Landscape Bokeh assignment over on Pioneer Woman's Photography Site on Thursday.  And today I decided to take my camera with me on a little walk to see what I could find.

The weather is cloudy and threatening rain, but I was able to find some beauty stashed away, and so close to home.

Welcome to Anna Epp Photography

I have been a photographer since I was 12 years old.  I am now nearing 40.  When I wrote myself a list of 10 things to do before 40, taking my photography to the next level was one of them.

Late last year I was asked to shoot a wedding for a young couple.  That request took me to where I needed to be mentally.  It started with one request and has been building for the last year.

To see a full portfolio of my weddings and portraits, please go to my Photography site: Anna Epp Photography.  Here, on my blog, I will post some of my shoots that will not always make it to my site.

If you wish to contact me for a shoot feel free to send me an email through my contact page and I will respond to you as soon as possible.

Thank you for stopping by and enjoy your visit.
