The Hill Family

On Sunday evening I met up with a few kids that knew how to show me "attitude!!" I haven't had that much fun in awhile. A little birdie told me that some young man ( not naming any names) didn't want to take any pictures...well don't think I didn't see how much fun he was really having!! Yup, I saw "young man"!!!! He was giving just as much attitude as the girls were. And speaking of the girls....WOW! I was giving a little direction and they were running with it. I loved it!!!!!! So I gave a little flare to one of their group shots. Mom and Dad had their own frame time aswell...romantic...intimate:) But not too crazy of course, I don't think the kids could have stood it, HHHAAAA!!! I love when a family shows up ready for anything, that makes for a great shoot!!
You guys, again, were so much fun. Thanks for making the drive and meeting with me. You have a beautiful family. Thanks for calling and I'll be in touch soon.

If you click on the images it will become bigger so you can view more closely. I hope everything went great with the grand kids this evening. Thanks again for calling. I can't wait for you guys to get them!!

Sunday Morning Shoot

First of all let me take a second to thank a co-photographer that lent a helping hand to me this morning. I couldn't have done it with out you, so, thanks Chick. And a special thanks to Mr. & Mrs. McElhany for letting us take over your B-E-A-UTIFUL home this morning.
So my friend Jodi keeps talking about getting family pics done but she mentioned that she doesn't take "good" pictures. Well by looking at these I haven't found anything wrong with her and the kids........................GoRgEoUs!!!!!!!!!! I told my husband that I had been swept off my feet by a 3ft tall gentleman:) Cole is the sweetest most kind hearted child I know. Every time I felt someone staring at me from the side....it was him.LOL He told me that I smelled pretty!!! OMG!!!, how adorable !!!!!!!!!! Oh, ya back to what I was doing.........anyway, we came out with some really great shots. Kevin and Jodi-thanks for meeting with me today. you guys did great!! I'll be seeing soon.









Now this was family that was down from Kansas City, which by the way, I have family that lives in Belton:) They decided that since we were going to be there they might as well have a mini shoot of their own. I am so glad they did!! Mrs.V let it slip that they have NEVER had pictures taken. So I am very honored that I was able to do this for them.
Mr.B & Mrs.V- thanks for being up for anything!! I really enjoyed what little time we had with you guys. This first image is my fave. I hope you guys have a great trip and let me know if there is anything I can do for you!!

The Church Family

Wow, when we first started this shoot the wind was so chilling it felt like it was cutting right through me!!!! But after a few it died down and wasn't so bad. Through it all these guys worked through it like champs. This little fella had other things on his mind other than picture taking. He was so busy trying to get on the ground that even Taylor's crazy sounds and faces weren't stopping him :) But I managed to sneak away with a few aWeSome shots!! You guys did great!!! Lindy, the outfits were perfect!!! Thank you for driving the distance and meeting me. Here are just a few of my picks. I will see you soon!!!!
OH!!!,P.S. Hey Mr. C the kissing shot..........................MY FAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahaha

Thanksgiving Thank You!!

I would like to stop and take a minute to thank each and every client and friend I have encountered since I've started this fulfilling journey. Photography has brought such a joy and passion to my life. To me when I look through that lens I see an innocent, creative world. I love just sitting, watching and waiting for that unscripted moment in time when the children don't think your watching, when a couple give each other that glance of passion or when a mom looks at an image with tears and says...."that's the one!!" Those moments are what make my job worth wild!! That old saying "It doesn't matter how much you get paid if your doing something you love." Well I never fully understood it until I started photography. So Thank You!!! I could not do what I love to do without you!! Thank You! Thank You! And Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!!!!:)

I have a thing for Red Heads!!

It was cold but that wasn't stopping these two. They ran and played, stop for a flash or two, then ran some more. I was a little worried about it being too cold but they did "amazing!!"
God knew exactly what he was doing when he molded this pair, the deep red hair coupled with those piercing blue eyes......WOW!! Mom you are in for some trouble in those teen age years with these two. Taylor had a lot of fun and says hi:)
Thanks for meeting with me!! I hope you guys have a great Thanksgiving. Your book will be in soon. I'll be in touch!!!

Beautiful Fall *Reminder*

I l-o-v-e this weather, well, honestly my favorite time is summer but fall comes a close second. Fall time gives us colors that are gorgeous and naturally beautiful. The wind might have a bit of a chill at times but for the most part its perfect for picture taking. So now is the time to stop procrastinating and get those family pictures done!! Even if all you do is grab your compact dig.camera, drag those kids and husband outside and snap some shots, then so be it. At least your family will have something memorable to cherish later on. It's worth it I promise.
Ok, I must brag abit. These two were "pulled" outside to do their quick fall pictures and 10minutes into it they were both having so much fun I couldn't make them stop smiling. Yes, Yes, I know they are b-e-a-utiful. Thank You!! Thank You!!(They take after me;))HA HA
But seriuosly, give me a call and I will help you "create and capture."

Just the Two of us;)

What can I say about this family...It might be small but they have big hearts for each other. I think it's such a great idea to get pictures made of your family no matter what the size because at the end of the day the memories of each other is all we have.

Tammy....thanks for choosing me I am honored to help you capture these small moments in time for your "little man of the house." He makes me laugh and we had fun with you. I will be in touch soon.

Miner Pride

Well this fella bleeds Royal Blue and his little cousins are there to support him every step of the way. I love these types of shoots! The girls have so much energy and are so full of life and big cousin, well, he just wanted to show off his uniform and "game face!!" ;) I had a lot of fun this evening. Thanks for starting my week off with a little exercise(which I needed) and fun. Here are just a few of my picks. I'll be in touch soon!!

The Weeks Family

This family has a lot of spunk and energy!! In the middle of the shoot some more family members joined us in the fun. With every frame one was as cute as the next. I didn't have to give much direction to the little ones they were naturals. Miss J would have stayed in front of my lens all evening if we would have let her:)The moms were getting a little frustrated but I don't care how many frames I have to take it only takes one to melt your heart and for you to stop and say....OH, I Love That Picture!! So just remember to stay relaxed and don't expect anything and before you know it that's when something great happens.Thanks for meeting with us today, I loved every giggle and tear. You guys did a great job!! I will be in touch soon.

My Future Models

There are two little ladies that I meet for the first time this morning. Tay was trying to make them laugh with her silly tricks but I think they thought she was just crazy! But we all warmed up to each other and started having some fun. Especially when mom and dad changed them into their western outfits:) That's when little blondy came alive,WOW the smiles were seeping out!!! Once they got the hang of it I almost couldn't keep up :)!! But we'll save those for later;)

Thanks you guys for meeting us this morning and thanks Ryan for being my Hefty Man for the morning!! You guys did great!! I hope this tops you off until we meet again. I'll be in touch soon.
