			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have come to a conclusion that there are more blue eyed people in Indiana then any place. For those of you who don&#8217;t know I grew up in Canada, Burlington Ontario to be exact. Most people around me were dark haired , dark eyed. After taking a course in genetics at University I learned that brown eyes are dominant, so blue eyes are a rarity kind of like AB- blood.</p>
<p>Well this is not the case in Indiana. I am in the minority.</p>
<p>But I digress. I have photographed more blue eyed kids this month, and here are two more cherubs.</p>
<p>Mason &amp; Molly Barker</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-270" title="0005_barker_k0193" src="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/0005_barker_k0193.jpg" alt="0005_barker_k0193" width="640" height="428" /></p>
<p>I know it is a black and white but believe me their eyes are blue. Look at these individual shots.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-272" title="0027_barker_k0193t" src="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/0027_barker_k0193t.jpg" alt="0027_barker_k0193t" width="640" height="428" /></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-271" title="0013_barker_k0193t" src="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/0013_barker_k0193t.jpg" alt="0013_barker_k0193t" width="640" height="428" /></p>
<p>I get asked to photograph siblings  all the time, and it is always interesting. Even though the older one loves the little one and wants to hold them all the time, their patience leaves a lot to be desired.  Mason had had enough, which is not unexpected from a 4 or 5 year old.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-274" title="0045_barker_k0193" src="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/0045_barker_k0193.jpg" alt="0045_barker_k0193" width="428" height="640" /></p>
<p>The babies usually get cranky and don&#8217;t feel real secure in the arms of someone not much bigger then them.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-275" title="0048_barker_k0193t" src="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/0048_barker_k0193t.jpg" alt="0048_barker_k0193t" width="428" height="640" /></p>
<p>But I am always thrilled when I can get these kind of moments.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-273" title="0040_barker_k0193t" src="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/0040_barker_k0193t.jpg" alt="0040_barker_k0193t" width="428" height="640" /></p>
<p>I love this image. I think it just oozes love.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow I can&#8217;t believe I haven&#8217;t updated the website in a while. October has been a pretty crazy month. Lots of school pictures and families and babies and seniors and a couple of great weddings. Everyone loves the fall.<br />
Thank you for keeping me busy!</p>
<p>Anyway..here is Georgia.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/0019_shrieve_f0148t.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-183" title="0019_shrieve_f0148t" src="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/0019_shrieve_f0148t.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="334" /></a></p>
<p>She is the daughter of Brooke and Brian.</p>
<p>I had a great time with her. Brooke has decorated her house in a very contemporary style, so it was great to use the house to create cool backgrounds for this little cutie.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/0013_shrieve_f0148.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-182" title="0013_shrieve_f0148" src="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/0013_shrieve_f0148.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="747" /></a></p>
<p>The decor allowed for some interesting graphic designs in the portraiture</p>
<p><span id="more-178"></span><a href="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/0001_shrieve_f0148.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-179" title="0001_shrieve_f0148" src="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/0001_shrieve_f0148.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="747" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/0006_shrieve_f0148.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-180" title="0006_shrieve_f0148" src="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/0006_shrieve_f0148.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="747" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/0008_shrieve_f0148.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-181" title="0008_shrieve_f0148" src="http://www.maryellenbertram.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/0008_shrieve_f0148.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="747" /></a></p>
<p>How cool to have a neat carpet like this to use as a background!</p>

<p>Harold &amp; Charity have so much fun with  their daughter. It is always great when they come to the studio. They play games with Shae, and I just take pictures of her reacting. I love this type of photography!</p>
