Jessica & Casey's Engagement Session













I met Jessica and Casey on the waterfront this past Wednesday for there engagement shoot. Even though it was a bit hot and shade was the area to be in, we ended with some great shots. These two have known each other since they were like 12, and it was so awesome to see their connectivity. Shooting engagement sessions with me always includes a little "pda" but I really don't think they mind that much. My main goal is to find and show the love between the two. I think it shows. Thanks guys, can't wait till the big day!

Just 2 Weeks

Aawww, what a sweetie.  I had two proud parents in here last Friday with their first baby (girl).  Along with the pleasure of shooting this new family, I was trying out some new gear too!  Along with a new camera body, I have the 85mm 1.4 Nikon Lens.  Oh boy that thing is sweet too.  I dogging myself for not having it sooner.  Anyways, the post is supposed to be about these photos, but I think they speak for themselves.

Cuties and Warm Fuzzies

I heading out for Derby Festivities, but I to get some of these out for the two awesome parents I meet this morning.  They brought these two cuties in and they were awesome.  I took some charm to get those smiles, but we did it.  We took some of the two together, but that would take a closer eye to pick the best one.  These are just some of the "love at first sight" photos.  I got a email later today saying the the three year old had fun.  I love that.  Thanks guys.

Pretty, Anywhere She Goes





Newborns are not always this easy to shoot.  Of coarse mom had to feed this sweet little girl and keep her happy, but once she had a fully belly she was ready to go.  Dad brought in his fire gear in hopes to incorporate it into a photo, and I think we did pretty good.  We tried some other set ups, but this was one of my favorites.  I had a really great time with this family and glad they signed on to the "Newborn to One" program.  Thanks mom & dad!

Lets Skip the Crawlin Thang

A quick upload before I head out for the weekend.  This 9 month handsome boy started my morning off today and rocked it.  It seemed as though he was ready to skip crawling and go straight into walking.  Well not yet, but he's almost there.  There were many funny things about this shoot, including Dad's discomfort in the first outfit, the many new and funny faces I saw, and his willingness to go just about anywhere I put him.  Still not sure about the Tonka truck, I think I just need to find me a yellow hard hat to go with it, and maybe dirty it up a bit.  That's it for now, thanks mom!

Blessed Are We with Little Girls Like Thee

This 6 month old cutie was the last of my progression last Saturday.  It started with a maternity session, then a handsome 3 month old boy, and ended with this adorable baby girl.  While I did manage to get some smiles, I think we just started at each other in wonder most of the time.  She was so good and sat contently just about anywhere I put her.  By now you might now already that I'll choose some soulful eyes over a smile any day and my choices aren't always the same as moms.  That cool though, because I always give you plenty of choices, and sessions like this makes it hard.  I told mom during the session that I should probably stop at some point so it isn't to hard on her.   I couldn't help to keep shooting. Honestly I still contemplate that philosophy.

Threes Company in the Studio

I would have to say that I always have fun with this group and it's exciting to see them grow.  As of three weeks ago they got to bring their newest addition home, and today I had the honors of photographing her.  She was a gorgeous little girl, and now has two big sisters to help her grow.  The chair is something that I've had for a while now, although I've used it, this is why I brought it home to the studio.  This is all for now, thanks mom & dad!

The Rain Cleared For This One

The clouds passed and the sun showed its face so we and others could enjoy last Saturday's warm temps.  This great couple invited me out to their country home to explore the many beautiful areas to photograph their engagement session.  The sweet ride would be my favorite, but we also checked out the creek, dodged some snakes, lit up an old barn, and ended at this gigantic oak tree which has its own symbolic nature.  Yeah we got a little dirty, but it was worth it.  Thanks guys.
