6 Months

I forget how fun six-month old babies are. How they grab ahold of mama's hair to gnaw on it it. How you make strange sounds and they look at you and 'pose'...flashing their gummy smile. How they make grunting noises to get the parents (and photographer) to laugh. How in an instant they are hungry and need to eat. How they drool uncontrollably. How they sit so perfect...then in slow-motion fall over. Here are a few of H's photos with his mama and daddy. They are so in love with him - which is naturally obvious!

A colleague of mine asked if I'd be interested in taking their family pictures sometime next year.
I asked "Why not sooner? We could do it now with the pretty leaves -that way, you'd have pictures for your Christmas card!"

He came back the next day and said "Ok, does next week work for you?"

Yes. Yes it does.

Natural

Tamara asked me two years ago to take her senior photos. At that time I said sure, and thought she'd change her mind. It was a long way off. I was thrilled when I found out she wasn't joking - she showed up to my classroom at the beginning of the school year and asked me. We had such a fun time - this is just a small sampling of the photos!

Samantha asked me over a year ago to take her senior pictures - and I couldn't say no! Little did I know at the time she wanted to have them taken with horses at her aunt's horse farm. Eeek! I have never photographed people with horses, so I was a bit nervous. It was a lot of fun, and turned out to be not as crazy as I anticipated. I was happy with the results...but there are two that are my favorites....the last two.

Portraits of a Senior: Shane

Shane asked me to take his senior portraits. Due to his love of football, we met up after school on the football field. Needless to say, we got some pretty great shots! He also plays drums, and wanted a 'nice' photo...and we found a woodpile out by the greenhouse that made for a great backdrop. Pretty clever, eh?

Portraits of a senior: Danica

I had the pleasure of meeting up with a young lady at a local park for some of her senior pictures in her prom dress. It was so much fun....and the last image is my personal favorite...everything about it, I just love!
