All About ME! (not really)

Hi, I'm Lasha McPherson.  I'm a photographer.  I know this is where I'm supposed to write something witty to grab your attention and possibly amuse you.  But seriously, you didn't really come here to read did you?  You probably came to check out your friends' portraits, or your own, or your kids'.  Maybe you wanted to see if we were giving away anything for free.  Well, scroll on down.  That's where all the good stuff is.  Come back often, I'll try to keep things exciting (maybe).  And please forgive me, as I tend to overuse the smiley.  :)  :-)  :D  ;)  :P  Hope to see you soon.  :)

Featured Session: Sweet Birthday Girl

This little doll came to the studio for her 1st birthday portraits.  She did such wonderful job!  We had tons of great images for mommy to choose from.  Look at that princess cake, and notice the tiny pink finger nails and toenails – too cute!!

Happy birthday, little princess!!

Sneak Peek: Such a Cute Little Man!

I don’t remember telling him to “strike a pose”, but is sure looks like that’s what he’s doing in this first image! :D

He’s walking… and that means lots of coaxing him back to where I need him.  He really just wanted to explore.  Mom had to do a lot of chasing!  I was impressed though, he didn’t even fuss with all our silliness.

He liked the window.

I must be funny!

Oh, the cuteness!!

Happy 1st Birthday, little guy!

Photography Workshop

Had a great group of 4-H kids (and their moms) to the studio over the weekend.  I enjoyed giving the presentation, and their eagerness to practice what they had learned was apparent!  I’m excited to see some of their results.

Sneak Peek: 4 is FUN

She makes four years old look lots of FUN!!  Don’t you agree?  :)

She loves to bounce, tells great stories, has darling hair (that I’m envious of), and a smile that lights up the room.   I’m honored to say I’ve been photographing her since she was a tiny newborn… it’s always a pleasure!

Thanks for coming to play with me, Carley!

Sneak Peek: Cute Little Man

Such a cutie! :) I’m guessing his mommy will think he looks so grown-up. Enjoy!

Sweet Sweet Baby: Newborn Session

A baby will make

love stronger, days shorter, nights longer,

clothes shabbier, the past forgotten,

and the future worth living for.

Through the Fog

I shared this image on Facebook (on my personal page.)  It was taken while standing on my back step.  I just love where I live.  I get to see beautiful sunrises every morning, but this one was breathtaking!  The foggy mornings we’ve had the past few weeks have been so surreal.  I’m just thankful I didn’t have to drive in it.  Sorry to all that did.

And speaking of Facebook.  I post quite a bit over there – sessions and random images.  I’ve started a new feature on my Studio PageWeekly Photo Tips.  Come on over and check it out.  You can become a fan or find me and send a friend request!    In the menu above, under INFO, you can click FACEBOOK to get little preview of our page.  Hope to see you there!
