Sami and Jesse's Photo Shoot

On a brisk morning in November, I had the privilege of doing a photo shoot for a sweet couple, Sami and Jesse. (Some of you might remember that I used to babysit for Sami and her brother, Levi, when they were just little guys!) We had lots of fun with this photo shoot!

Thanks so much, Sami and Jesse, for trusting your photos to my lens! I'll have your Portrait CDs ready for you this week!

Jesse Jackson's Senior Portraits--Dec 2010

On a sunny Sunday in November, I had the privilege of doing a Senior photo shoot for Jesse J. He has a great smile and was a lot of fun to photograph. ( I also did a photo shoot with Jesse and his girlfriend, Sami. I'll post those pictures here in a few days.)  Jesse plays on his high school's football team, so we have several pictures with his jersey and letter jacket.  They turned out especially good!

I really really like this shot!  It's one of my very favorite from the whole photo shoot.

Thanks so much for trusting your Senior portraits to my lens. It was a pleasure to work with you. I'll finish up with the editing process, and have your Portrait CD ready for you by the end of next week.

Daniel N's Senior Portraits--November 2010

On a nice Autumn day, I had the privilege of doing a photo shoot for Daniel, who is a Senior in high school. The weather was perfect, he was a good sport, and we had a lot of fun capturing some great shots!

His mom said that she wanted at least one shot with Daniel listening to his iPod, as this is something she sees quite often!

Thank you, Lori and Brandon, for trusting Daniel's Senior Portraits to my lens. He was a pleasure to work with, and I trust that you will be pleased with the results. I will finish the editing and have your Portrait CD ready for you by Wednesday.

"R" Family Photo Shoot--Nov 2010

On a beautiful Autumn afternoon, I had the pleasure of taking photos for the "R" Family. What a fun and good-lookin' group they are! I took oodles of photos, and have spent a lot of time editing because there are just so many good shots. Here are a few of my favorites...

Here's the whole gang: (left to right) Rylee, Aleah, Brian, Jami, and Jillian

Miss Aleah sure does look like a teenager in this photo!  (Really, though...she's 8)

Miss Rylee has the perfect complexion to play with the saturation levels while editing and get some great results!

Doesn't Jillian make being one-year-old look like fun??

Here are the sweet parents.

I love Rylee's expression in this picture.  Jillian had just 'put the brakes on' and Rylee was trying to her to take her hand again.  I have a sequence of shots from this that are really fun!

I think this is my favorite 'saturation level' picture of this bunch.

Baby yoga!

I just happened to catch this one, and it's so precious!

Love those baby profiles!  Look at those long eyelashes!

This is my favorite one of Brian and Jami.

She looks like a model, doesn't she?

So pretty...

Jillian was having so much fun playing on the bridge!  Love this expression!

Awwww...

Sweet Mama with her baby girl...

Jami loves black and white photos, so I've tried to include lots of those on her Portrait Disk.

I love how the breeze was blowing Rylee's hair right across Daddy's shirt!

Cutie-bug!

This must be an expression Jillian does quite often, because I think my camera caught her doing this about 5 times!  So cute!

I just love this beautiful family!

Thanks so much, Brian and Jami, for trusting your family to my lens. It was a joy to capture 'a day in the life' of your sweet family. I will finish editing your photos and have your Portrait CD ready for you by the end of the week!
