Just playing catch-up...

Here is the next installment of evidence of children. I hope you enjoy :)

I know I'm a little behind...

Who knew...all you need to do was start 52  project and then you would get super busy. I had taken photos for the last three weeks but have failed to post anything.....sorry. here is one and I'll get the other two up soon.

enjoy this weeks Evidence of childen.

Evidence of children...

I'm going to try and do it....all over people are doing these wonderful 52 or 365 projects. In the case of photographers they would make it a point to take at least one photograph a week for 52 weeks or one a day for 365 days. The point is to push oneself, to be more creative and increase their knowledge base and in the process maybe learn something about oneself. So I am going to commit myself to blogging at least one photograph a week for 52 weeks... my focus... my children.
I intend to capture evidence of children be it good, or not so good. wish me luck :)

I find rocks all over the house...in clothes, in the bathroom and in my laptop case :)

Once upon a time...

Love is awesome! But true love is a blessing.
I had the absolute pleasure of shooting Aaron and Jennifer's wedding last night. let me tell you something these two are in "LOVE".  The venue was at the Stone bridge manor in mesa....Beautiful! the whole day was like a Fairytale. here is just a taste for you to enjoy, but if you'll excuse me for now I have a ton of images still to process. till next time...

Club Kid.

Just a quick post on Ryan. Ryan is a senior who wants to go to school to be a crime scene investigator. That is Awesome????

Ryan likes to spend his time going to raves and hangong out with his friends. I love to shoot pictures of club kids! It really gives you a chance to strut the edgy feeling on your shots ;)

 I hope you enjoy.

More to come soon...

Jim and Amy have left the building...

    Very good friends are rare....friends from school who become family are often are unheard of. This little princess is the daughter of such a friend. I look at this photo of this little flower girl from our wedding (ahem...14 years ago) and I can't believe how time has just motored by. Well it did just that...
Now that little girl with the imaginary friends Jim and Amy, is getting ready to graduate from high school and is  NAU bound with aspirations of being a child psychologist. Which is strange to me because I can't help but still see the little girl when I see her. How can she possibly be going to college? There is no way I'm that old. My wife and I are quite proud of her.  
      But the cool part is, I was afforded the absolute honor of taking her Senior portraits and people, she has grown into beautiful young lady. But don't take my word for it. See for yourself....

Best of the best...

    Going through the previous years shots and trying to pick your favorite photographs is hard. Going through the previous years shots and  trying to pick just one photograph to showcase as the best, is impossible : /
Do I pick this one? But this one of my son is so good too... Errrrrr.
    It's kind of like trying to figure out which family photo is going to make this years Christmas cards.
    But I committed myself to pick just one photograph....
One photograph to sum up the entire year...
One photograph to express emotion...
One photograph that I love above all...
    I had all but given up. It was just too hard to do. I'll just post the top ten fav's of 2009 and call it good.
    Then it happened....
While I was cataloging 2009, there it was. A photograph I had snickered at the first pass through of a wedding session and didn't have the heart to relinquish it to the emptiness of the recycle bin. I saved it to process later. You know... the fun thing you put on the backburner and never seem to find the time to get to?
This shot has everything I want out of a Photograph. It has movement. It has that moment in time you never get back. It has something that ties it to the time period. It has something to throw you back into your own memories. It has....A Good exposure :)

    I call it "Strike a Pose". Because being a superhero requires that you pose :)

What is it Wednesday???

   We are starting something new and fun. What is it Wednesday is where we will take a random image from everyday items and you tell us what it is. Sometimes it will be one item, other days it can be three, your job is to tell us what the items within the images are. I can promise you I will not make it easy, easy is not fun :)
So to start things off we are offering a giveaway.. yay!!!
   One free engagement session will go to the couple who can correctly identify what the item in the photo is.

The rules are as follows.

• Bride and Groom must be Arizona residents (Travel expenses outside Arizona are additional).
• Email us your answer at rjconnerstudios@gmail.com
• Include the happy couples contact information.
• You must be a R.J.Conner photography fan on facebook.

    Tell your friends to play or take a guess for yourself. It would be a nice gift to give to a cute couple you know... The lucky winner will be announced on the R.J.Conner Photography fan page next Wednesday.
Soooooo.... with out further delay, here is the first image. Good Luck!
