New Name!

So before moving, I wanted to get a name that I would stick with.  I don't think Sadie's Timeless Photography "flows" as well as I wanted, so after some thought and consideration, I've decided to change my business name to Sweet Sadie Photography.  I am not changing the pictures on the blog to the new logo, but will start using a new logo on my pictures.  The logo looks like this:

Other than that, I'm just getting things ready for moving.  We are moving about 30 minutes away from where we are, so not too far, and hope to be in the "new" house by the beginning of April.  I will update when I can and if not before we move, I'll make sure and post after the move.

Still here, but not for long!

I know I haven't been around much lately, but we've been looking at homes and preparing ourselves to move closer to my husband's work.  We have found a house that we LOVE and are hoping to be moved in by April 1st!  I'm so excited, but so busy that I'm not really able to do much with my photography.  I am excited to say that I got 2 new lenses, a 50mm 1.7 and a 70-300 mm!  I've been playing with them a bit, but have not used them on anything serious yet since we're so busy with moving stuff.  I've also tossed around the idea of changing my name...I've done the "TexasTalbots Photography" but am not sure I like it enough to keep.  I'm really wanting a name that screams "me"!  I know I could use my own name, but am not sure I want to do that, either.  I'll let you know when it's official and will make sure to do some photos shortly after moving...it may be with my own kiddos, but I will do something! 

Amazing photoshoot for me

I had an amazing time with this family!  I think it went very well, too.  It was a family friend that I've known for quite a few years.  I asked if they would allow me to practice on their family doing portraits.  I didn't do well on the individual shots, but feel that the family shots ended up nice and the couples shots of the oldest son and his new fiance turned out really good as well!  I had a few moments that I should have changed what I did, but over all, I think this shoot went very well.  It was a cold, windy afternoon (right before sundown), so that was tough to deal with, but they did great and were very great subjects!  Here are some of my favorites from their shoot.  {D} Family

Thanks so much to the {D} Family for letting me practice on you!!
