Sophia & Shayne

We recently did a photo session involving a toddler named Sophia and her new baby brother, Shayne. One reason for the session was to capture an image of Shayne that his mom could use on a post card announcing his arrival. Lisa (Sophia and Shayne's mom) also wanted some pictures of Sophia alone, and together with her new brother. We were hoping to split the session between shots inside their home and outside at a local park setting. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate that day, and we spent the entire session inside. None the less, I think we captured some excellent images of the kids.

Shayne cooperated nicely, and seemed very curious about the strangers in his home and the equipment being used. We tried to get several pictures of him soundly sleeping (we managed a few), but he would have no parts of that, and stayed awake most of the time. Sophia was the perfect little model. She is extremely cute and photogenic, and as you can see in her pictures...this little girl has attitude! Basically, she's a teenager in a toddler's body. All in all, it was a fun session, and we came away with some great pictures. Here's a sample...

Lisa - thanks for letting us photograph your kids. We're really looking forward to our next session with them. Maybe the weather will cooperate and we can get outside.

Crystal and Bryan

A couple of weeks ago, Krista and I covered the photography at a wedding. Bryan (the groom) and his family have been long time friends of ours. When my wife and I headed up a church youth group, Bryan and his sister were part of the group. Of course that was a few years ago. Look at him now . . . he's grown up and married. Bryan was looking very hansom this day, and Crystal was just beautiful! They seem to be the perfect match.

We had a lot of fun shooting the wedding. I have to admit, knowing the family sure made it a little less stressful. Although, there were some drawbacks. Most of the people invited to the wedding were people we hadn't seen in a while. So, while it was great seeing them again, everyone wanted to talk and catch up on old times . . . unfortunately, we were working. With Krista being pregnant, they really wanted to know how she was doing and get details on how the pregnancy was going.


Over all, it was a great time. I'm sure Crystal, Bryan, and their families will be blessed through this marriage. Good luck Crystal and Bryan!
