Lindsey Hofmann- Fun Fall Portraits

Lindsey timed her appointment just right! The fall colors at the time we took her pictures were just amazing. We went to Grizzly Creek to the rest stop and wandering around awhile and had a good time. I definitely made Lindsey laugh, which I don't think is too hard considering I'm kinda a goof ball... at least I'm good for something right?!? ;) These are a few of my favorites from her session. I can't wait to hear what she thinks!

Senior Portraits!

I've been shooting quite a few High School Senior portraits over the past couple of months. I actually think seniors may be my favorite. They seem to be the most laid back, spontaneous sessions that I do. Most of the time we're not even sure where we're going to go until we're in the car! I've had some awsome sessions so far and I'm sure we'll do many more as we get into the winter and spring. As I edit, I'll be posting them up.

That's it, I'm starting anew!

So I have felt so badly about keeping up with my blog. Every time I shoot a new event or session, I think about posting, but feel badly becuase I haven't posted something previous to them. Well I think that is stopping today. Even though it is not quite the new year, it's a good resolution, and I still feel very badly about the posts of things I have missed, but I feel like I have to start somewhere or I'll never catch up!

For those of you still looking for images from weddings and those kinds of things, don't worry. I will still be posting up material from this fall and the past few months and sharing stories. I'm just not going to fake that somehow you won't notice that it's all the wrong dates and try to keep it in order!
So with that! I wanted to talk about the past week! This studio has seen so many smiling faces last week! I was contacted by Kim, a memeber of Christ Community Church, about helping out with a fundraiser for their children's ministry. Well every 15 minutes we had a new family in the door to shoot their mini sessions and wow, what a fun 2 days we had! It gave me great motivation to get the studio clean and ready for the holidays and so suddenly I am in the mood for Christmas!
Crystal and I will be sorting through all the sessions and orders over the next week and I'm excited to actually see all the pictures! Each group got to sit immediately with Crystal and see their images and I haven't hardly seen ANY of them yet! (I kept peeking over Crystal's shoulder to get a glimpse of how they were turning out.) It was so wonderful to meet everyone and I hope that all the kids and families had a wonderful time. Here's a few images I grabbed from the shoot. I should have turned around and taken pictures of all the people that were here! :)We had a lot of goofy faces, laughter and cute moments in those quick little sessions! It was really great and I hope we can do something like it again.

Christmas Deadline

I wanted to let everyone know that we have set our deadline for Christmas orders. To guarantee prints for Christmas, all orders need to be placed to me by Sunday, December 9th. So! If you have anything from your session this year to give as gifts, let me know! If you'd like a print as a gift for Grandma, maybe a photo ornament to commemorate your Baby's First Christmas, or maybe custom holiday cards, then let me know as soon as possible so I can make sure to get it to you on time. Man, it will be the New Year before we know it!
