Holiday Season

Well, Christmas is upon us and due to a very busy senior season I really haven't had much of a holiday portrait season. If anyone is interested in getting holiday portraits taken just call me at my studio, but unless you work fast to place your order enlargements probably won't be back in time for Christmas. For the few people that I have taken portraits get your orders in quick or it may be new years day before you receive them.

If anyone needs to get a hold of me fairly quickly I'd suggest email, I'm not going to be checking my phone messages at the studio until Monday the 23rd. If you want to schedule a session leave your name and number, I'll be booking people in the order they call, and with the holidays upon us, I have a feeling there is going to be a mad rush for portraits for photo cards. Call soon or you may lose your spot.

We had a really fun creative studio session last night for Kane's senior portraits. We did a lot of really cool poses with his guitars and we even broke out the fog machine towards the end. As usual we fill the entire place with fog and set off the smoke detectors. It took a good thirty minutes to clear the place out. We got some really good shots though and the smoke didn't overpower Kain in any of them which can happen fairly easily if you're not careful. It was a really good session and I would say this probably concludes the senior portrait season for the year. It should be mostly family portraits and children for the rest of year.

Newest Senior Slideshow

I know these portraits are from last season, but I felt Nathan's portraits deserved a slideshow, so here it is!

Shepler Family Portrait

I'd say this officially begins the holiday portrait season. We had a really nice, fairly short, portrait session Saturday morning with the Shepler family. Little Scott really ran me ragged trying to get a smile. I tried every trick in my arsenal and I just couldn't get anything above a little smirk. Next time though, I've got a bag of feathers with his name on it. We'll get a smile no matter what.

Tessa - Class of 2010

Here is my latest High School Senior Slideshow. I'm really enjoying making these, they're really time consuming, but they are so much more exciting than my old slideshows. If you've had your portraits taken by me this year and want to order one of these, all you have to do is provide me with the music you want included. For licensing reasons you need to own the music I use, so give me a CD and I will do the rest.

Senior Slide Show

Here is a slideshow of about 30 of my favorite shots from Stephanie's portrait session earlier this week.

Stephanie's Senior Portraits

We had another awesome studio session last night. We tried some really cool things and got some of the most dramatic shots I've ever taken. I really love this red background with her black top. Very cool. There are more of her poses in my gallery, plus a couple of fun behind the scenes shots from this session on my FaceBook page. Check it out!
