Here is Rachel’s album… such a fun afternoon taking her pictures.
I do have to admit that many of the photos are Tara Whitney inspired. I *love* her work.
I am, however, quite irritated with the new lens I bought. I should have listened to Jessica…. I bought a Sigma 28-105mm lens and used it for the majority of pictures today…. every stinking one is soft. UGH. Its going back on eBay and I’m just going to suck it up and get a Canon lens.

These turned out great!! #21 really jumped out at me!
Bummer about your lens. I splurged with the Canon 28-135mm after using a Sigma…you definitely can’t go wrong.
These are GORGEOUS Nicole, they are just beautiful, very inspiring!!!
Nic, I love your pics – saw them over at SJ. They are awesome and you had a gorgeous subject.
Awesome pictures!! You are inspiring me to take pictures from a different angle – not so portrait looking.
