Kendel and Toby will soon be adding to their family of two and making it a family of three. Kendel contacted me about having a maternity session and it was a lot of fun. Kendel was very open to trying some new things and I thank her for trusting me. She is beautiful. Here are just a few images from her session. I can’t wait for their newborn session!

They do grow up

Sometime around Thanksgiving my former neighbor contacted me through Facebook and asked if I’d do some family portraits for him in February when he would be coming home on leave. I told him I’d be more than happy to do that for him. I watched this young man grow up right across the street from me – it is just so hard to fathom that he is an adult now and serving our country in the military. He used to mow my lawn and he helped me get my front door off its hinge when the door knob quit working. Joey was actually my very first client as I did his senior portraits for him. On Sunday I had the honor of making photos of his family, with his wife Shayna and cute little son, Remington. Joey ships out on Wednesday, so I worked extra fast to get his photos processed before he goes. Here are a few of my favorites.

Warning – adorableness ahead!

In between Winter Fest on December 10th and Santa photos on December 15th, I had a session with these two adorable little siblings. Cute overload!!

Here’s another family of fun and adorable children from Sweet Saturday. With any luck, the rest will be up tomorrow!

Winter Fest Sneak Peek #2

The second sneak peek from Winter Fest Sweet Saturday. These boys are so adorable and a lot of fun. They were interrupted in the middle of their gingerbread house decorating and I was so impressed with how patient they were with all the posing. I think they maybe were starting to have some fun by the time we wrapped it up.

More sneak peeks to come later tonight (I hope).

Winter Fest Sneak Peek #1

This Saturday was the Winter Fest Sweet Saturday and what a busy event! Lots of kids decorating gingerbread houses, men working their magic on batches of chili, clowns, story telling, and cottage industry vendors set up to sell.

I set up my lights and green screen backdrop and made some portraits, collecting food for our local food bank in lieu of any session fee. My first customers are below for a little preview. The green screen backdrop and software is pretty cool, but it does take a bit of work preparing the photo first before dropping in the different backgrounds. This might take me longer than I anticipated, but I’m going to keep plugging away, working in the order taken, so if yours were taken towards the end, please be patient.
