Beautiful Baby Boy Ryan

I did this little guys pictures when he was just a few months old and he was a cutie then, but OH MY! Look at those eyes...he is just adorable. We had so much fun. He was in a great mood, laughing and smiling - mom, grandpa and grandma did a great job getting some great looks from him. I haven't officially started editing this shoot yet, but just glancing thru I had to pull a few out and post.

I can't believe that she is this grown up!

This is Kayla! I have known Kayla since the day she was born. Her mom and I have known each other since kindergarten. I was just in sheer amazement as we were doing these pictures. She has grown us to be a respectful and beautiful young woman and as her "Aunt" Criss, I couldn't be more proud. Although after we were done I realized with her being a senior, how old that makes me!

She also brought her boyfriend Beau. What a sweet couple they are!

Amber's Senior Portraits

What a sweet girl Amber is. She was so excited and had so much fun and we took TONS of pictures! You can see what a great personality she has from the sax picture. For the first time with a senior I had to change out my 8GB card! I'm still working on the finals proofs, but wanted to post a few of them for you to see!

My New Great-Nephew is Here!

Meet Noah! It seems like we have been waiting on him forever. I think his mommy found out she was pregnant at about 3 weeks - but finally......he's here! He is so precious. I am working on getting his pictures done, I'm taking a few here and a few there. We'll get them done. Here are a few of my favs so far.....

Kristin Senior Pictures 2009

Kristin was an awesome model! Her mom told me that she used to take tons of pictures when she was little - you could tell, she knew how to pose and she just worked great behind the camera. It was the easiest shoot because I didn't have to tell her what to do or how, she just knew!

Her shoot was done on 2 different days. Day one was in the studio and day two was outside at Garfield Park. I'm excited to get thru her images, I think they are going to be stunning! Here is a sample of what I have so far!

Tristan 2009

Tristan's senior portrait session was fun. He was a good sport and did a really great job. It was a sunny, but chilly day, but he took it in stride and handled it well. We had a good time. Here are some of the shots we ended up with.
