Fall Portraits with Trey and Drew Neighbors

Posted in Family Portraits, The Kiddos
This is the second year I have had the pleasure of working with Robin Neighbors on some family fall/holiday portraits. This year she decided she wanted to do portraits of just the kids in an outdoor setting. After many days of rain I was happy on the day of our shoot to find we had a beautiful sunny day. Trey and Drew and Mom, Robin, arrived at the studio in the afternoon. One of the first statements out of Robin’s mouth was that Trey had said the night before that he was so excited to be doing pictures with Jamye again. Well, of course, for a young boy to say he was looking forward to doing portraits made me feel like I must be doing something right!After a little prep we followed the path behind the studio to a fallen tree that I use quite often for outdoors portraits. I also decide I would take them to another area close by the studio for another series of shots that turned out to be my favorites. Here are a few of them.

Could they be any cuter?

Posted in Family Portraits, The Kiddos
I recently had the pleasure of having Tim, Tiffany and Cade in my studio for their first official family portrait. What a cute family!! Cade made his arrival into this world earlier this year. Shortly before his birth I did a maternity photo session for Tiffany and Tim in their home. I should have known from the wonderful images we got from that session that their first family portraits would be just as adorable. Could this family get any cuter?

Tanner’s Senior Portraits…..

Posted in High School Senior Portaits
Tanner’s a 2010 High School Senior at Mabank High. He’s also the son of my good friend Connie. Tanner was a pleasure to photograph and was a real trooper when I took him into the woods and had him covered in mosquitoes in no time flat! Later on I had Connie standing in an ant bed and jumping around to get them out of her shoes. No one said getting great shots was going to be easy. Sometimes we have brave weather, bugs, snakes, etc. but if you are willing to do it so I am!!!Despite the whelps and itchiness we had fun shooting outside. Tanner’s proud of his new truck so we incorporated it into a few of his senior portraits. And I had a blast creating sun flares! Here are a few of my favorites.

Victoria Turns One!

Posted in Family Portraits, The Kiddos
Rainy and her one year old daughter Victoria arrived at the photography studio in the early afternoon and we set right to work deciding on clothing and backdrops. I had told Rainy to bring a variety of clothing and a few props that she might like to use during the portrait session to showcase Victoria’s first birthday.I have been photographing adults and young adults for many years but photographing small children alone on a regular basis is something that is fairly new to me.

In the last year I have learned that no matter what I might have in mind that the person really determining the flow of the shoot is the child. Yes, I have learned a few tricks to get the shot and I am still learning more but I have also learned nothing is better than good old fashioned patience. For this reason I schedule plenty of time for sessions with little ones.Sometimes we may get a variety of good shots very quickly and others times we need may to be patient and wait.

Sometimes we have a child who can handle a variety of clothing changes and stays good natured through the session. In any situation I want to make sure we have enough time and don’t feel rushed.

Victoria was just one of those children that stayed in a fairly good mood despite the fact that we changed her clothes and the set several times.

One of the props that Rainy brought was a really cool hat box. As soon as I saw it I knew I had to use in along with one of the new damask backdrops I purchased last week. I love the look we got with this shot. I am betting Rainy will too.

Rainy, it was a pleasure to meet you and Victoria yesterday ! I am now looking forward to photographing your entire family!
