When we lived in Arizona, the harsh desert sun always made my daughter squint during our impromptu photo shoots in the yard, so I thought I would give backlighting a try. Of course, she was more interested in figuring out how to get her toes in her mouth than looking at the camera, but it turned out to be one of my favorite photos of my inquisitive little girl.<br />

Not only would it give me an excuse to visit, but it would be my first official photo shoot since the move to Nebraska. I was so excited I could hardly stand it!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">On the day of the shoot, my husband and I loaded up our daughter and our dog to go and spend the day with the P Family. The nice thing about spending a day (or half a day) with a family is that you get a huge variety of shots and great moments to photograph. I had a hard time narrowing down which ones I wanted to include in the blog, but here are a few of my favorites:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Between my husband, my daughter and I, we were sick for pretty much the entire month with a nasty cold that we just couldn't shake. As soon as my daughter finally started feeling better, she was back to her old self--eating, playing, climbing on the furniture, making messes and making silly faces. Our favorite face is her Gene Simmons Kiss face, taught to her by her Daddy. One night, as she was playing in the tub after a feast of pasta and blueberries, I was lucky enough to catch her doing her best Gene Simmons impersonation. This was, by far, our best face from March.<br />

I don't like fake-looking props or frozen say-cheese smiles. Maybe it's the writer in me, but I want a photo to tell a story. I want a photo to look like I pressed the PAUSE button on life, freezing a moment in time.<br />
<br />
For this week's I Heart Faces Challenge, I chose a photo of my sweet daughter. It seems she might be taking after her writer Momma. There's just something about her intensity when she gets a pen or crayon in her hand that takes me back to those first days when my own obsession began to take shape. Perhaps, one day, I will have the pleasure of reading her stories.<br />

One day, while taking advantage of the late afternoon light and getting some shots of my daughter in the backyard, I managed to capture this image, and to this day, it is one of my favorite photos of her. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Try to explain it rationally all you want--sun flare on the lens, a bird or airplane capturing her attention at just the right moment, a mere coincidence--it's photos like this that just have a way of rekindling our belief in guardian angels. And perhaps, that day, Cadence and I caught a glimpse of ours.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Bravi Tuscan Kitchen is an example of the new fast-casul dining craze, which combines partial self-service (ordering at a counter and having your food delivered to your table) with delicious, homemade gourmet food at a fraction of the cost of most full-service restaurants. From the stone oven pizzas to the freshly made pasta dishes, Bravi has something to satisfy all your Italian cravings. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

What a coincidence that my daughter would learn how to give kisses just in time for Valentine's Day! I did a quick photo shoot with her as she opened her gift from her Grandma and Papa Luethje--a box of chocolate covered animal cookies. I just couldn't resist this photo, and thought it was perfect for my Best Face Photo From February entry. Pucker up! Here's your chocolately kiss from Cadence!<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This week's I Heart Faces Challenge topic is "Anything But A Face" and I thought of this photo immediately. I posted it several weeks ago on my personal blog, as part of my 365 Photo/Writing Project, and I just love it. You can read the entire blog post </span><a href="http://loriromano.blogspot.com/2011/01/365-project-day-15-boots-are-made-for.html"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">here</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> if you'd like.</span><br />

I was even planning to wear them under my wedding dress until my Mom vetoed the plan.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 21px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 21px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">These days, the soles are worn almost smooth on the outer edges where I have a tendency to walk on the sides of my feet, and the toes are scraped and scuffed. But like all Doc Martens, they were made to last. All these years later, the stitches are still holding tight and even walking through a foot of wet snow, my feet stay warm and dry. The leather is still soft, and the flowers still bright enough to attract comments and curious glances from people I meet on the street.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 21px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

None of the chairs or tables or plates or silverware match, and the entire restaurant is filled with antiques and crafts that can be purchased along with your meal. The owners wanted their customers to feel at home, like they were visiting grandma's house, and they have certainly accomplished their goal. The menu is filled with recipes passed down through the family for generations, and all of it is made completely from scratch. If you're looking for typical, deep-fried restaurant cuisine, you won't find it here. What you will find is delectable home-cooking and a cozy ambience that will keep you coming back for more.<br />
<br />
Here are a few of my favorite photos from the day. Yum...<br />

I've been working hard on the website, and hope to be launching it soon. Next week, it's off to Arizona for a bunch of interviews and photo shoots for West Valley Health & Living and the upcoming East Valley Health & Living magazine. Whew!<br />
<br />
In the meantime, here are some photos I took of Miss Cadence for Valentine's Day.<br />

It ended up being a bit of a last minute scramble, and Cadence went along for the ride.<br />
<br />
Even at 2:00 in the afternoon, the bar area was filled with "regulars", and I was impressed that Adrian knew each of them by name. After sampling some of the food, I understood why Zen's Cafe had such a passionate and dedicated following, and how the restaurant was so successful just one short year after opening. After sampling a Philly Cheesesteak made with chunks of Rib Eye steak and several pieces of what is, hands down, the most delicious fried fish I have ever eaten in my life, I think I might just have a new favorite restaurant.<br />
<br />
Here are a few photos from the day...<br />

This year, our holidays are shaping up to be even more hectic than usual as we are packing up our belongings to move to Lincoln, NE, where my husband is starting a new job in January.<br />
<br />
A few weeks ago, as I was preparing for my holiday shoot with the O Twins, I did a quick practice shoot with my daughter to test the lighting and see how things would look. I even managed to get her into a couple of her Christmas outfits for the test shoot, and was so pleased with the results that I ended up using several of the images for this year's Christmas card. Woohoo! Now I don't have to drive myself crazy trying to do another photo shoot to try and get the cards done.<br />
<br />
Here are a few of my favorites that didn't make the final cut for the Christmas cards...<br />

It turned out to be false labor, but we never did get a chance to reschedule before she gave birth to Baby Z. When she asked if I would be interested in taking some newborn photos, I jumped at the chance. Baby Z would be my first real Newborn Session, and I was excited to give it a try.<br />
<br />
Already a month old, Baby Z was wide awake and alert for our entire session. While those sleeping baby photos are always nice, I'm so happy we got the chance to see Baby Z's beautiful brown eyes in the photos. Watch out girls! This little boy is going to break some hearts someday. He sure melted mine!<br />
<br />
Here are a few of my favorites from our day together, and a few B&W conversions.<br />

These boys are adorable, full of energy, and so much fun to work with. Mommy O and I have been emailing back and forth since August, tossing around ideas for their holiday photos. After a lot of brainstorming, we came up with a few different ideas.<br />
<br />
I arrived at the O house early Saturday morning and set up my backdrop. We tried a couple different set ups with wrapped gifts, Christmas tree ornaments, and even piles of red and green tissue paper, but the boys just weren't interested. So, we decided to go for it.<br />
<br />
I cleared away the wood floor and spread out my seamless paper while Mommy O changed the boys into some old white onesies. A tray full of red and green fingerpaint later, and we had the perfect recipe for some outrageous holiday photos! This was definitely the most fun I've had at a Christmas portrait session, and I will definitely be doing it again with any families that think they might want to give it a go.<br />
<br />
Thank you O family for spending a Saturday morning getting messy with me! :-)<br />

Here are a few of my favorites:<br />

Even though she's a crawling, standing, climbing fiend these days, plop her down in the grass outside, and she gets distracted enough to get a few good shots. Here are a few of my favorites from two sessions, and the black and white conversions.<br />

We also set up a photo shoot to get some shots of the delicious food to run with the story. I headed up to Glendale on a Friday night, and was greeted warmly by Matteo when I arrived. Everything about the restaurant--the food, the friendly staff, the lighting, the artwork--is classic, romantic Italian. The dim lighting made for a difficult shoot, but I think I managed to capture both the flavor and the ambience in the photos.<br />

Here are a few of my favorites from the evening:<br />

Having recently renovated, the Sheraton is re-launching its three on-site restaurants, and I had the opportunity to meet the new Executive Chef, Gary Scherer, and get some shots of the delicious new menu items he is creating for customers. I had a great time, and am looking forward to heading back to the Sheraton to do more photo shoots soon!<br />

She contacted me a few weeks ago with a request to take photos of LH that could be submitted with her application for the Florence Junior Parada Rodeo Princess. We met up Sunday morning, hoping to get some good shots before the lingering summer heat overtook us. (Yes, it's October and still in the 100's here in Arizona). If LH's poise during our photo shoot is any indication, I'd say she is a shoe-in for the Princess title!<br />
<br />
Here are a few of my favorites from our day together!<br />

They are great family friends, and just about the sweetest, most humble people you would ever want to meet, yet the request was to take what would likely be Dad O's final family portraits.<br />
<br />
As a photographer, I wanted the photographs to be technically sound--good lighting, good composition, good focus.<br />
<br />
As a friend, I wanted the photographs to capture the soul of the family--their strength and commitment to each other, their faith, their humility and most of all, their deep and enduring love for one another.<br />
<br />
Here are a few of my favorites from our day together:<br />

I have to be quick to get the shots I want, but it makes for great practice. I snapped a few photos of her as she explored the hallway today, before heading outside, where it was too sunny and hot to stay for long. I managed to get a few good shots though. Here are a couple of my favorites of my daughter and my dog.<br />

For a long time, I was a very picky eater, but during high school and college I began to expand my horizons. During the years I spent in New York, I fell in love with sushi, sashimi, Indian food, Turkish cuisine, and became accustomed to ordering random items off menus. I was never disappointed in what I ordered, and found myself falling in love with each new dish that was brought to my table.<br />
<div><br />
</div><div>In all my culinary adventures, however, I never tried Vegan food. Like many other people, I mistakenly thought that Vegan food could not possibly be very good. I mean, how much variety and flavor can there be when you don't eat meat, poultry, seafood, eggs, or dairy products?</div><div><br />
</div><div>The answer is a lot!</div><div><br />
</div><div>My husband and I headed to Loving Hut restaurant in Glendale, AZ on Saturday to sample some Vegan cuisine for my upcoming article in WVHL magazine, and were pleasantly surprised by every dish that came out of the kitchen. We ate until we were completely stuffed, and thoroughly enjoyed our first Vegan experience.</div><div><br />

The owner and editor like my writing, and have made me the the go-to girl for all the upcoming restaurant features. After learning that I am photographer, they are also interested in giving me photo assignments. Not only is it great experience for my photography, it also gives me extra incentive to go and visit all of the restaurants that I am writing about, and a chance to sample the food. I'm a sucker for new restaurants, especially when they are small, privately-owned, mom-and-pop shops that serve up unique cuisine.<br />
<br />
Yesterday, my hubby, baby, and I headed up to Goodyear, AZ to Augie's Sports Grill for my first paid photo assignment for the magazine. Walking in, it looks like your typical sports bar--a large open room with a full-service bar, and flat-screen TV's mounted at every possible angle. The food, however, is anything but typical sports bar fare. We started with the stuffed mushrooms--large portabello mushroom caps stuffed with Italian sausage and topped with melted mozzarella and a delicious red tomato sauce. Steven ordered the Johnny Boy--a half-pound bacon cheese burger--and I ordered the Buffalo Chicken sandwich, both of which were served on a homemade soft pretzel bun. All I have to say is, nothing I eat from now on is going to taste right without that pretzel bun. It was amazing, and Augie's is definitely worth a visit if you are in the area. Here are a few photos from my visit.<br />

We'd been planning to take photos both at home and at the park, but ended up staying at the house because of the weather. It didn't seem to bother young M or her big brother B one bit. These kids are so gorgeous, it's like they were born to be in front of the camera. We had fun just hanging out and playing. Thank you M and B, for sharing your morning with me! Here are a few of my favorites from our shoot:<br />
