Senior Shoot - Alex

Alex is right around the corner from graduating and we were glad to take his senior pictures. He and his mom Kim are so fun to work with. Doesn't he have the most gorgeous blue eyes?! I also loved how adventurous Alex was. I've been wanting to shoot in this old "junk yard" (actually it's an antique store, really?) close by. The first shots are at Hodge Park, and the later ones are at the junk yard. Thanks Alex! It was so fun! I'd honk for you, too :o)

P.S. If you recognize Alex, he and his group were finalist in the Oreo Jingle and performed in Times Square. Check them out in YouTube! Here's a link to their website, too: KychnSynk.com

Michelle and Pete

Michelle and Pete are such an adorable couple. They're as hilariously funny as they are beautiful together. Michelle kept me laughing the whole time. Pete was a trooper as he was working on less than two hours of sleep. Poor dear! We did some studio shoots before venturing out to Hodge Park.


We were lucky, these flowers bloomed over the weekend.

Love, love, love how playful and cute they are with each other.

This grouping of trees was Michelle's idea. It's such a nice little canopy for this couple shot. Way to go Michelle!

They really loved this old barn, and I think these two are some of my favorites of the day -- the first out of the box when we ventured out on location. We kept thinking we were going to find a snake....ssssss.....luckily not this day!

A perfect ending to our shoot. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect sunset. Thanks Pete! I guess it helps to do photoshoots with a meteorologist. You're our favorite weatherman!

Ball Extended Family

We had a fun time at Hodge Park doing this extended family's photoshoot. The Balls are so much fun to work with, and I love the challenge of shooting little ones, teens and adults all together. They were troopers for me going in the tall grass around the barn. Too bad there were no chickens yet!

New Studio, Well, Kind of :o)

I'm been thinking about a studio, but I don't quite have the funds to have an all-out set-up, darn it! Instead, I did a little DIY, and presto, an instant studio. Making a backdrop was bit more challenging than I first thought. Two tries later, I'm happy with the results, but ready to try my hand at this painting thing again.
Here are the boys trying it out for me this morning. It was just after they ate, so their faces aren't the cleanest. Ash looks especially charming, doesn't he? LOL! Enjoy!

Dr. Thomas - Shoal Creek Smiles

I'm loving Dentists this week!
Dr. Thomas is also starting his practice of pediatric dentistry here in the metro. He has this really cool "Under the Sea" theme for his office and identity. It should be really cool. I know my boys are going to love it, and insurance willing, they might get to go there.
We had a good time taking a few headshots and talking about his new office. Scott is fun to work with and I look forward to working with the rest of his staff -- as soon as he hires them, that is!

King Dental Care

We were all smiles at King Dental Care yesterday. The new dentist office was looking to take some office pictures and some group pictures for marketing materials, including a bill board. They were a fun team to work with and I'd love to come shoot some of their families and kids.
Enjoy!

Eliza & Abby

Kristine and I go way back, and keep moving around and meeting up again. It's been fun to see her kids grow. I remember when Abby was just this little thing, not yet 2, toddling around, and now she's going to start kindergarden soon. I was happy when Kristine had me come and take some pictures of her newest addition, Eliza, on Tuesday. She is an absolute doll. While we were there, we snuck in some pictures of Abby in her ballet costume. Oh, to be a girl! I had the best time ladies. The only thing missing from this shoot, was Big Allen and his incredible jumps.
