Hey Kids! Sunny and her Mama posed for this photo so I could show you all the different parts of an alpaca.
Scroll back up to the top and see if you can name them all!

faith + summer

I love how the light bounces up off the snow and gives them sort of a dreamy look. Snow is one of the best friends a photographer could have, it’s like having a huge bounce flash at your disposal, without having to lug any equipment. For those curious this taken from less than 12′ away, using an 85mm f/1.8 lens.

    Hi.
    I'm Myla Kent, the Owner and Chief Alpaca Human here at Iolanthe. I live in beautiful Sequim, Washington, a tiny town (pop. 6,500) nicknamed the Lavender capital of North America up on the Olympic Peninsula with my chihuahuas: Bear and Daisy, and alpacas: Faith, Summer, Harmony, Mischief, Ms. Precious, Sunny and our two newest: Willoughby + Bingley.

    My writing and photography has been featured in print and online in the likes of National Geographic Online.com, Seattle Magazine, JPG Magazine, and several other outlets. My day job is as a patent paralegal for this wonderful man, who is letting me telecommute so I can follow my dream of starting a day camp for kids with cancer. I am keeping this blog to document life here on the ranch.
