The Next Disney Star?

"K" thinks she may want to do a some acting so her mom called me to get some headshots set up.  This is a very simple process for you out there thinking you might like to do the same for your kiddos.  We actually met after school one day at the park nearby and she had on a very simple, colorful shirt that was a great color on her and then mom also brought a blue jean jacket to throw on for a different look.  I brought a few props like the umbrella and small bench that we used to give the photos some variety.  "K" did great and we had the photo shoot knocked out in about an hour.  So, without further ado...here's Disney's next star! :)

It's Party Time!

A few weeks ago I had alot of fun photographing little Courtney's 2nd birthday party.  Mom and Dad had her all decked out in her pink and green tutu and she looked so precious!  She was happy as a clam to have all her friends and family over to her house to party with her on her birthday!  She loved all the balloons and digging in the cooler to find herself a little drinkie poo.  They had the hot tub going for the kids to play in, the sangria on the deck for the adults and a little kiddie pools for the wee ones to splash in...this was a party that everyone could enjoy!  Without further ado...here's the big TWO year old!

Beautiful Briana

I photographed Briana in her parent's backyard which was like a park. There's a pond with fish, a jungle gym and twinkling party lights everywhere. It was just lovely. Briana warmed right up in front of the camera and was a real natural. She LOVES animals so we had to incorporate some of her favorite pets into the shoot which was alot of fun! I can honestly say I've never photographed a ferret before which was really cooperative once we got her settled down! Her cat is a Ragdoll which is kind of funny b/c the cat looked like a ragdoll during her photos. Briana just molded her however she wanted her. Without further ado...here's beautiful Briana! Enjoy.

Under The Big Top

For a long time now, I've been wanting to do some sort of fun shoot at the carnival. It doesn't come around too often and it seems everytime I find out it's here then it's on it's way out of town. That is exactly what happened this time too! I chased it down though and it was moving to the next town over so we were FINALLY able to do our carnival shoot. I had a fun and willing family that just did an outstanding job. The kids were a little ticked off when they had to leave b/c their little brother had a baseball game. HE was even mad! It was great having loads of color and design everywhere but not so fun trying to dodge all the people. Since this was the first day of the town's festival it made it a bit challenging but I like incorporating some of the characters into the photos! Please enjoy "Under The Big Top!"

Rootin' Tootin' Cowgirl

It doesn't get any better than this...I photographed a 5 year old, "only child", downtown with fun props and the most laid back mom who was on board with everything! That to me is a photographer's dream! We met at the children's museum with the lime green walls and "P" looked so cute in her black and white dress against the bright colored wall. She warmed right up to me and was a real natural in front of the camera. Her mom had brought a HUGE butterfly helium balloon for a fun prop but "P" was so worried about it blowing away we only used it in a few shots. The gerber daisies were such a great pop of color and I loved her mom's bridal veil that they brought b/c we had so much wind that day it felt like we were in a wind tunnel. It worked amazing though with blowing the veil to give it some good height! We can't forget the pink cowgirl boots either! "P" wasn't crazy about the pink cowgirl hat so we had to do some coaxing at the end to get her to take a few shots with the hat. I'm glad we did b/c she looked adorable. Here's the Rootin' Tootin' Cowgirl...enjoy! I just realized I didn't use any of the shots with the gerber daisies in this blog post. Haha! In case you were wondering where those photos were...maybe next time!
