Raegan

lookatme — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 16:16:28 +0000

I can’t believe how much Raegan has grown!!! You may remember her baby photo session from 2006. Yes, 2006. She is growing up so fast!

Now look at her! I miss seeing these two….I think they need to live closer to grandma! ;) I’m sure grandma and grandpa would agree Shelley.

I know Cole was excited to have a new baby sister when Raegan was born. Some days I think he wishes he could have gotten a brother instead. ;) lol He’s still an awesome big brother! Of course he always has dad to sympathize when the girls take control.

It was so great to see your family again Shelley! Talk to you soon!

Houghton Boys

I can’t believe how much these boys have grown. Tyler and Chanse went through grade school together, but it doesn’t seem that long ago! Now they are starting high school….where does the time go?

Creed impressed me with his shooting skills. He’s a G.I. Joe in the making! He loves to target shoot and I wouldn’t be surprised if you see him in The Outdoor Channel one of these days! The storm the night before the boys’ session gave us a terrific prop opportunity! :)

Momma is proud of her boys…. and rightly so. Thanks for the fun Katie!

Riley & Ryan

lookatme — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 14:42:50 +0000

You know, there are some clients (most actually!) that you always look forward to seeing time and time again. Riley (and his parents too I suppose) is one of those clients! This kid can make me smile and laugh like crazy. Such a character!

But it was great to meet little brother Ryan too. Who would have thought that your baby’s dresser could be so cute in a photo?! That’s what Lifestyle Portraits are all about. Ask any mom who has had her Lifestyle session and she’ll tell you it was so much easier and more relaxed than any photo session they’ve ever had. It pays to stay at home!

And yes, we have plenty of his cute little mug without that paci too! lol Sometimes you just gotta work with it! LOL After doing some of Ryan’s photos we went outside to play! A few quick family photos…..

And then it was time for the fun stuff!!! In less than 10 minutes (yes, TEN) Riley had me watching him swing on a rope, racing around playing tag, riding the gator, climbing stumps, and pulling his wagon searching for alligators. :) The kid can move! lol… but it was a terrific ten minutes. I don’t think I have one bad picture of this little cutie. He stole my heart when he was born and he’ll always be one of my favorites. Thanks mom and dad for sharing your boys with me. I had a great time!

Check out ‘GQ Riley’… what a poser! ;)

Edie & River

lookatme — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 03:24:26 +0000

It’s been a great week for babies! Angie brought her cuties to me today and we had a wonderful time playing outside! Edie has grown so much and River is ALWAYS a joy. :)

It’s kiddos like these that make my job a breeze! Thanks again Angie for sharing your most prized possessions with me.

And yes….. I just can’t stay away from the creek with these adorable babies! It’s too precious!

Pipes Family

lookatme — Sun, 20 Jun 2010 00:30:19 +0000

I hadn’t seen Brandi in quite some time, and it was a pleasant surprise to meet the newest member of their family….Bronson. :)

He was a little tired in the beginning of our session but we managed to get a few good family photos….

And when he fell asleep, it was time to play! The boys got to break out their toys, and we drove tractor trikes, took wagon rides and even did a little fishin’…. :) I had a blast with these boys! Thanks Brandi for letting me photograph your family. I hope you weren’t too miserable in the heat, it wasn’t quite what we expected! Plus, it was a beautiful way to spend my Friday.

I hope you enjoy your previews! I’ll talk to you soon.

Farmer Caleb

lookatme — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 15:48:15 +0000

Caleb is turning one and we had so much fun with his birthday session! Yummy Cake everywhere! I swear this boy was such a joy to photograph…. I don’t have a single bad shot! How will I ever narrow down mom and dad’s proofs?! :)

After cake we headed to the farm to enjoy some sunshine and fresh country air! I do believe little Caleb is going to grow up to follow in Daddy’s footsteps. He makes such a cute little farmer. :)

Ava is growing!

lookatme — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 13:59:02 +0000

It was such a pleasure to have Ava as a baby planner, and now that she has graduated I’m loving her coming back for more sessions. These are the FUN times! She’s getting old enough to interact, flash her personality and play! She loves her little pink car and I think she’d drive to California if mom could push that far! lol :)

Another highlight of Ava’s session was her Pish Posh dress. Amy allowed me to use Ava as a little model! My Pish Posh line has been a big success in fundraising for our missions work and I love seeing the kids in their clothes. :) Ava looked so adorable in her Pish Posh Peasant Dress.

Stay tuned…. Ava’s next session is going to be at the pool! Looking forward to it Amy!

Cale turns 1

lookatme — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 02:33:40 +0000

Cale had a one year session at his home. I love these lifestyle portrait sessions! The kids are so much fun and uninhibited! He did a terrific job! And who would have thought, that Cheerios were SUCH a hit! I mean seriously! This kid is CRAZY over Cheerios like nobody’s business! When all else failed…. dad knew just what was needed. A trip to the kitchen floor and those little crunchy O’s! :)

Thanks again Luke and Jenna, I always have the best time with your boys. :) Can’t wait to hear all about Cale’s birthday party!

Team Tolson

lookatme — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 03:04:21 +0000

Yes, some of you know who they are…. they’re lean, they’re mean and no one makes sports look better. And I think we all know who’s in charge of this crew don’t we?!

Hannah

lookatme — Sat, 08 May 2010 16:47:21 +0000

Hannah returned to the studio for her 4 year photos with her baby sister and mommy…..and her bicycle! :) What could be more fun to a little girl than riding her bike on the bicycle path just for fun! Sometimes I don’t even think Hannah realized we took her there for pictures. She was just having fun being herself and I think I enjoyed this session with her more than any of the others (and she’s been coming to visit for a couple of years now!)

Trying to get her to steal a hug from mommy was an inconvenience though…. you realize when you’re having fun, hugs and kisses aren’t necessary! ;) lol

Lifestyle Portraits are the perfect gift for someone too! Purchase a gift certificate to give to a friend or loved one and you’ll be glad you did. Besides….who wants to look back at their portraits and see the day they all got grumbly, and their children were pouty because they had to get dressed up, sit in a stuffy room where they were lectured not to move or touch anything, sit still and smile! (that would be mom talking…. not THIS photographer! lol) Or would you rather look back at your portraits and remember your little girl tickled pink to play in her bedroom that you designed and painted just for them…. or the times she surprised you by speeding off on her bicycle because it was soooo easy for her to learn you couldn’t believe it, or remembering the sound of her voice, the way she squeeled with delight when you pushed her on the porch swing. Now those are memories to cherish. ♥

Hannah brought her baby sister Leah too…. who was a bit shy and didn’t want to look at me either. Until we went outside to play and be little girls! Now that’s what is fun!
