The other day, my friend, Mikki offered to take some running pictures of me. She has taken our family pictures the past two years (2010 2011), as well as the pictures for my preschool classes, and she does an absolutely amazing job! I, on the other hand am not photogenic, and have never been comfortable having my own picture taken. I have always considered myself a “poser,” but when it comes for posing for pictures, I end up looking like a “poser”—I hope you catch my drift 😉
Mikki, though does a really good job of making you feel comfortable. The other thing that made this photo shoot different, was that I was allowed to do something that is even more natural than smiling—actually, one of the things that makes me smile–I got to run!
Here are some of the pictures…

hello,
your records show you’re a fast runner and that you’re not a beginner !
but be careful with landing on your heels…
Thanks for the input. This was a photo shoot, and it was kind of hard to do my “natural gate.” I am a natural toe striker, and have trained myself to strike more mid-foot. I am rarely, if ever on my toes.
Love these! I’d love to look strong in race pictures. That’s one of my goals this year. 😉
Love your pictures. Nice! 🙂
I wish someone can do this for me too. 🙂 Most of my running pictures look horrible. Lol. 🙂
Good job to your photographer…!
Thanks! My race photos always seem to have my face looking like it’s melting :).
