Miss Lauren...

…is one of our 2011 Senior Model Reps from JM this year… I had the privilege of having her and her sister in one of my classes in the past.. I got the privilege of meeting mom yesterday for the first time, and the only thing I can say is now I know where these girls get there respectfulness, academic drive, and all around easy to like qualities from… Lauren will be a 2011 senior in a few days, she’s also a cheerleader… She is very impressionable when you first meet her, kinda quiet, but shows her genuiness pretty quickly…. I look forward to working with her throughout this next school year… I know she’ll do a great job for us….

Dollie Dance Team....

Every year we get the opportunity to photograph the JM Dollie Dance team... We've been doing this for the last 5 or 6 years (I can't remember, it's what happens to you when you get old, as they tell me)... Anyway, the girls get excited and pick partners and show us their posing ideas... most are really creative... We take a nice headshot, then do the fun partner pose.... Anyway, I thought I'd post one this year.... Click here to watch a video of the session.... Enjoy...

Spring Time Family...

Scott and Chelli are great friends of ours... and their girls are absolutely beautiful... This is our 3rd time photographing them in the last year... Photographing small children is a challenge... I have so much respect for those great children photographers, they have little secrets that most don't know exist... We started outside... unfortunately the flowers had grown up so high, that placing the girls in the flowers would've hidden their entire bodies in the grass... so we opted for a sky image (see below)... kind of looks like it was taken on a beach somewhere.... we then let the girls play on the trampolline, then changed outfits and headed for the car, which turned out really nice.... then finished up in the studio... I know Scott and Chelli were a little frustrated, but I'm certain the images will prove the session worthy... Enjoy...

Third Time's the Charm....

Sarah is a senior at Reagan HS… she came to us from a referral from a senior we photographed last year (thanks Lauren). She’s headed to TCU in the fall, wanting to study either business or education (I think)… Anyway, she’s bright, very social, and very anti-mosquito… hehehe The title of this blog is because we got the privilege of photographing her three times. The first, due to bad weather, we photographed in the garage and studio…she needed a head shot and body shot for the sorority process she’s going through for TCU. Then we rescheduled her to come back and finish, but one of her friends couldn’t get off work, so we just photographed her in her second outfit. Finally, last Wednesday, the friends all showed up and we had a great time…. I must say Sarah, you sure pick fun friends. Trying to fight 20-30 mph winds was a chore, especially when all 4 girls had long hair…. Anyway, we accomplished the mission and all of the images turned out fantastic… Even the one with mom in the picture (hehehehe)…. We hope Sarah likes the images, we certainly do…. More on the site, and click here to see a short video of the session…. Enjoy…

Shelly....

is a senior at East Central HS... She found out about us through a senior we photographed last year (thanks Jessica)... Shelly is a fun, cute as a button, and a spontaneous, young lady. She wants to go to that school, you know, the one that teaches how to gigs frogs... anyway, she wants to become a dermatologist... We started out with her cute white top and blue jean skirt... The garage, and the fields were the setting for some wonderful images... we then did her cap and gown outside on the swing (that was a first for us)... She then put on the elegant black dress (which made her look spectacular) and we photographed her along the tree line of our house... she finally changed into her fabulous blue-bonnet blue and off white dress... we started on the drive way, and finished up in the yellow flowers.... We had a good time, and Shelly was still smiling afterwards.... The images turned out wunderbar, and I hope she likes 'em.... I certainly do... More on the site, and click here for a short video from the session.... Enjoy....

I just have to mention how grateful we are to have such wonderful clients, and to be blessed by God to be able to do this... I can't express how thankful I am that the Lord has trusted us with the opportunity to share in the lives of others with such a special occasion.... Thank you all, 2010 seniors, for allowing us this blessing and privilege....
