The Lost Photo

I was trying to show a client this picture today, and I realized I forgot to put it on the blog with the others from the Floden session.

This was the mom's idea, and I think it was very charming. It nows adorns their dining room. I love this shot so much, that I want to hang it in my house!

The Hales Preview

Cute little family visiting their family here in KC, saw pictures I took of their family and urged me to take these photos the day before they left to go back home. They are a super sweet and obedient bunch of kids. I think the little girl is just breath-taking!

I said they were obedient because many of you who have sat through my children sessions before have met my trusted assistant - Pepe the Puppy Puppet. Well, usually I can't stop the laughs from my subjects as they watch Pepe kiss me and as I object in a silly (French) voice. Not this group. When I had Pepe try to kiss their mom, I didn't get the unusual shierks of delight. Instead, Pepe was warned to "stop kissing Mommy. It's not nice." Although I didn't get the usual laugher that makes for great kids photos, I was impressed at how the kids stood up for their mom and they obeyed her. Way to go Hales Kids! We got some cute pictures anyway :o) Poor Pepe! I need to take a picture of him someday for my friends and blog readers who are still wondering who Pepe is!

Back from France!

We had a wonderful time in France (and a few days in London) and I have SOOOOO many pictures (of course) to share with you. But, as the good photographer I am, you're going to have to wait as I keep up with my backlog of photo proofs and orders.....sorry! I'm disappointed too!

Viva la France

I will be out of the office and off to France (ooh, la la!) for the next two weeks. Check back on the week of the 11th for some amazing photos.

I will not be taking phone calls and may take some limited email messages. Thanks for your patience.

Au revoir until then!

Beautiful Caralee

Wow, I've been so busy, that I haven't updated a lot of recent sessions. This is Caralee. She is beautiful inside and out. She has the most awesome older sister, too. Her sister Caetie took her on a shopping spree (see outfits and assessories), did her hair and makeup, and hired me to do her very own photoshoot. What a great idea to do for a younger sister out visiting for the week. After spending the hour with these two sisters, it's hard to believe there is so many years between them since they act like best friends. Enjoy!

I Heart the Flodens - Preview from Session

I just love the Floden girls. They are so beautiful and photogenic....and I think it's fair to say they loved Pepe as well! It's good to know that Pepe the kissing dog puppet is back in action after meeting his match at our last session. Enjoy the preview shots at the beautiful Antioch Park.

Hauser Family Session Sneak Peek

The Hauser Family is so fun. Their little ones are just gorgeous with their porcelain skin and beautiful blue eyes. The mom and dad aren't half bad, either :o)

We risked a Thunderstorm Warning and some very scary clouds (where's Channel 9 Pete Grigsby when you need him?!) to get these amazing shots. An extra big thank you to mom and dad who went out of their way to help me get little C to smile. Who knew some fake falling would do the trick? Enjoy!
