    the last of timmy’s (& friends) little league season

    Since Timmy had his appendix out, i think these were the last few games he played in that I took pictures at.

    And yes, the blog is now baseball 24-7. Thanks for asking. I promise next week some families, children and other stuff besides only baseball.

    Sometimes the light is amazing, even at a baseball field.

    He played catcher for a few innings one game. Love the tongue on the pic on the right.Timmy was catching while James was hitting. I’m still so surprised there are no pictures of them chit chatting while up there cause I know they did!!Possibly my favorite picture I’ve taken of this kid to date. Jack L. doing his pitching thing.Tommy N. pitching (and hitting).Best of friends but not my best photography work ever. Forgot to change my settings between baseball action pictures at a distance and a “portrait” upclose so Timmy’s all out of focus. But I love the feeling behind it so I couldn’t trash it. Great season, great kids, great coaches. Summer league up next for them- I’m pretty sure there will be more pictures.

    jack & patrick baseball

    Welcome to the baseball blog. Ironic, no?

    Finally catching up on editing some pictures from the boys various games recently. They’re playing on a new team this season- the LI Nationals and they are really enjoying it. I still miss the Royals all the time, but things change. Again, ironic if you know me.

    Uniforms with their names on them- I was very excited about that!

    Patrick.At another game, the son of my clientfriends was playing on a field next to the boys. I couldn’t resist jumping over to their field (where some of the parents were craaaaazy!) to take a few of Matthew. I do not think he was happy I was there. But I did get to see him get a great hit and make a big play at home. Jack pitched.And hit.John’s friend Grant’s son played on one of the opposing teams the boys played that day.They had Patrick at first. Not sure if the coach got them mixed up (Patrick plays left field mostly) or if he wanted him there, but he did a great job.Patrick hitting.More of Timmy’s baseball soon. I really cannot believe this is turning into a baseball blog. I gotta go edit a family session, just to change it up a little!!

    timmy’s little league season- part 1

    Or maybe this is part 2. Like I can remember? Just go with it. A bunch of pictures from a few different games over the spring little league season of Timmy and some of his friends & teammates. More to come later this week- I’m editing in bits and pieces. By the way, the season is actually over. Timmy’s team made it  to the playoff championship game this past weekend (Timmy couldn’t play as he’s still on restricted activity after his appendectomy) which was a big to-do, but unfortunately they didn’t win. There’s always next year…

    Timmy pitching.

    And hitting. With his dad/coach in the background. On base.Tommy N concentrating hard on his next pitch.Chris B.Tommy M.Jack L. pitching.And Jack L. hitting.Thomas M.And James.(Freckles are the best.)

    first day/last day

    I woke up at 6:15am today (which never happens cause I usually stay up till 100 o’clock every night) to take the “last day of school” picture. The only other time that ugly hour happened was on the first day of Regis for the boys back in September. No need to worry though, I did go back to bed. Today is their last day of classes, finals start on monday and by the 11th they’ll be all done with their freshman year of high school. I feel like this year was on super fast forward- I can’t believe its over. And quite a change in these boys too. They’re kinda like different people than they were in September. And way more tired. (Jack on the left, Patrick on the right).

    baseball time

    First a tiny bit of business:

    ***FLASH SALE!!*** To celebrate “opening day” of bsquared photography’s communion season tomorrow, I’m having a sale on 8×10’s today only. Normally $35, now only $25 till midnight tonight. Get in touch here below in comments or shoot me an email at bethbeyrer at yahoo dot com with your order. And wish me luck for this weekend’s madness!

    Baseball season. Again. And although it is technically baseball season, the weather is sure saying otherwise. Its freaking freezing at games and practices. Gloves, hats & blankets cold. Which makes it oh so pleasant being outside watching. One game wasn’t totally freezing (well, not till the sun went down) so I took a few pictures before I fled to the car and put the heat on 90 degrees.

    Some teammates. Jack L.Jack N.Tommy.Took these on the way to the (very heated) car. It looks deceiving. Like it could be warm. Its all lies. LIES I tell you.
