Isn't this little man so cute...there are so many great shots it's hard to pick my favorites. I had the privilege of photographing little "c-man" when he was a newborn and how time flies...he just turned 1! He made me earn my keep as he crawled everywhere super fast...he was so cute and I loved how he snuggled his little lamb...memories mom & dad will cherish forever...the cammo is for grandpa...soon 4-wheelers and hunting...a few more years to go, though. Happy 1st Birthday "c-man", look forward to watching you grow! ~Cory
I was so happy to get a call recently from this little guy's mom to say she wanted 6 month photos. It's amazing how much "Little Mr. J" has changed since our last appointment. He was so happy and cuddly and cute! I just loved seeing him smile behind those beautiful blue eyes. I can't wait to have him back again. ~Kristin
Being a photographer is the greatest job I could ever ask for. I get to meet the best people and watch their families change and grow. It is beautiful to witness a couple bring their first baby into the world and see the pure love between them. It moves my heart to see a child grow from a newborn to a toddler who runs and plays. I truly feel I become friends with my clients and they make me feel like family. Being so close is amazing, you can capture the sweetest moments, but it can also be heartbreaking. It is heartbreaking like with the lovely family you see here...the "LS" Family. I have been photographing them from maternity, every 3 months. I've watched "Little Miss M" change and grow. She is such a little doll! You might recognize her from numerous appearances on our website. Anyway, this 1 year shoot was our last. My dear "LS" Family is moving and taking a part of my heart with them. I left their home with a hug from mom and tears in the car as I drove away. Thanks for the support and love "LS" family. You will be missed! ~Kristin
I am so truly humbled to be mentoring an amazing senior girl this year on her senior project. "Miss A" is an extremely talented photographer already and is off to photography school next year to become a photographer everyone will know by name in a few years! I love her so much and hope that I was able to teach her a little bit about this beautiful job that God has given me. It has been my pleasure to have her company and her help on my recent shoots. I hope that she enjoys her senior photos! Someday she will be taking them herself and I'm sure they will blow this photographer right out of the water. Not only is she talented, but gorgeous too...look at those baby blues! ~Kristin
I was so happy to recently photograph this awesome senior guy "E." I love photographing seniors. They are always so fun and willing to do crazy things. I also learn a lot (which I totally love) about what is cool these days. I never thought I would see the day that I didn't know what was cool anymore (is cool still a word that is used...I don't know). Anyway, "E" was a great subject as you can see. Your photos are coming soon, promise! ~Kristin

I have to post this for my wonderful clients so they get a sneak peek...I have the whole gallery coming so soon! Anyway, this little guy was born not so little...10lbs at birth! Oh how I loved his sweet baby rolls and dark head of hair! He was so snuggly with mom and dad...making this photographer happy! I adore snuggly, close shots!

A couple of weeks ago, Cory and I had the chance to photograph together downtown. I LOVE photographing with her and then comparing our different shots. We had so much fun with our friends the "H Family." They have three lovely girls which are all so different. As you can see, "Miss L" is the oldest, sweet and serious. I think she looks so stunning...and she was nervous about having her photo taken! Then "Little Miss C" was our supermodel of the day. She could strike a pose any which way! I love the turquoise door behind her...doesn't it make her pop out of the photo? Last, but not least, energetic "Little E." I think I got a few cute ones of Cory playing with her...but I'm sure Cory has a load of cute ones too! She followed her around and captured the amazing little light that she is! Thanks "H Family" You rock!
It's that time of year again when I get to photograph my dear friends the "T Family." I always look forward to the time I spend with them. I have watched the kids grow since little "G Man" was a baby. He used to give me one shot and then he would tell me he was done...my how times have changed! As you can see we have a little model on our hands. He has perfected the deep, mysterious look already! Then there is beautiful "Miss P" who I adore. You would never guess her age in a million years! She is so beautiful and grown up looking. By the way, her dad is going to get me for saying that! Sorry, but you know I love you all! So here's a sneak at your gorgeous children...the family photos are on the way.
A couple of weeks ago I got the priviledge to photograph one of Cory's dear clients. "Mrs C" was in town and called us up for a photo shoot (we are so honored). Unfortunatetly, Cory could not take the photos, so I got to step in and meet this wonderful mom and her sweet little girls. She also brought along her best friend and son. They were lots of fun, especially the 3 year old best friends. Aren't they adorable?
I had such fun with this little guy and his friend who came along! Little "I Man" was so cute and fun to play "up down" with. He has the sweetest expressions as you can see and such a gentle spirit. His little friend "Miss C" was so pretty and very interested in all the things around us, but not me! Thanks for letting me photograph your beautiful children. Hope you enjoy the preview!
