Taylor!

This is my beautiful niece, Taylor!  She is sweet and sassy, fun and smart...and I mentioned beautiful, right?!  We met up in Boise and headed to Freak Alley to do some fun graffiti shots...and then wandered out of the city to do a little rural thing too.  (She is a little bit country...and a little bit hip-hop!)  Fun weekend, and I am excited to edit the rest of these images!

 

Photo-a-Day! Support your local library!

This is the coolest entrance to a public library! Any guesses where it is?!
When I was a kid, way back when, my friends and I would spend a whole Saturday afternoon wandering around the library (in Grand Rapids, Michigan, but that's not where this door is!). Maybe it was because the winters were so cold...maybe because we were just trying to get out of shoveling the driveway...or maybe it was because we loved the way old books smell...or because it was fun to read about things you'd never imagined before (I especially loved the big coffee table art books with lots of photographs, of course!)! Do kids do that anymore? Do adults do that anymore?!
Well, this is your encouragement for the day...support your local library! Sure it's cool to read a book on a Kindle or an electronic tablet of some sort...but wouldn't it be a shame if your kids never knew the scent of old books in a library?!

Photo-a-Day! I little business promo today...!

It is getting to be that time of year...Spring (and hopefully warmer weather!) is just around the corner...and SeNioRiTis has surely set in...?! If you are looking for unique, customized graduation announcements, look no further!
I am currently booking mini-shoots for personalized senior graduation announcements!
Give me a call for details! Kris @ 339-4339!

Photo-a-Day! Take music, wherever you go!

This has continued to be one of my favorite portrait images. I know, you are thinking, you can't even see her face?!
Well, this particular teenager, whom I was lucky enough to get to know while doing her senior pictures awhile ago, was so genuinely sweet and such a lovely, unassuming young lady... And when I suggested that she play her violin down this old alleyway she just sort of lit up...and so did that alley, with music! It was fabulous! A goosebump moment!
So, for my Photo-a-Day...I hope you take beautiful music wherever you go...and wish you all 'goosebump moments' every day!

Engaged!

These two braved the bitter cold for a fun engagement session! You can't even tell their teeth were chattering! They were eager to snuggle into each other...to stay warm, of course! Thanks T & S!

Paul

I enjoy teenagers! I really do! And this particular teenager is certainly no exception. He was a bit reluctant at first, as all boys are, but once we got into the shoot he seemed to actually enjoy it! A fun guy, with a lot going for him. Thanks Paul, and mom, for a fun afternoon!

Byron and Ashley!

I had so much fun doing this shoot!! What a great couple...oh, yes, that's my daughter!!! And her future hubby! :)

Holly!

Okay, so I really do love doing senior pictures! There is something about capturing a teenage spirit that makes me happy! This one was no exception! Holly won a free shoot as my Facebook fan! And what a great girl...and a fun family too! More to come Holly!
