Zac and Kyla

Let me start off by saying how sweet this couple is.  If I remember correctly there first date lasted over 12 hours.  They spent all night in brick town talking, and finished there date by eating breakfast at IHOP.  Just look at how much love is on their faces. 

My flash didn’t fire during there first kiss, but they didn’t mind redoing it for me!

some detail shots:  her flowers….

her jewelry, dress and veil….

Zac and his goofballs best men 

Isn’t she lovely?

I’m not sure why I like this one, but I do.  Something about it just makes me smile!

Thank you so much for allowing me to be part of your special day!  Best wishes to you Zac and Kyla, for a long joy-filled marriage.

Here are a few of my favorites from my latest Senior Session with the lovely Miss Teresa…..

 

 

Lawson Gang

I met up with this sweet family tonight, and other than battling the wind we had a great time walking around (sometimes running) the Rose Garden at Will Rodgers Park.  Here is the whole gang.  Probably my favorite pose for families.

Mr. W just turned a year old.  Isn’t this the cutes little smile?

 

Miss B… she was an absolute doll.  I have way to many cute pictures of her to choose from.

Mr. B is the same age as my little boy, and it’s a fun, fun age. 

I just love his red hair, and he has the most gorgeous eyes.   He sure is a cutie, even though his favorite subject is math! 

I don’t think I would have made it through the session if it wasn’t for Mr. M.  He helped me so much by holding my reflector. It’s not easy to hold a reflector and take a picture at the same time.  And he did awsome job, he didn’t even let it get blown away by the wind.

May and June are booking up fast!  Contact me now if you want to book a session with me during those months.

Stewart family

Finally!  I had a great time the other day chasing this family around the park.  They were great.  Dad is deploying to Korea in a few months and they wanted to get some family shots before he left for a year.  The twins were a hoot,  and I spent a bunch of time during editing trying to figure out which one was which… but I did it.  Here ya go, I know you’ll love them!

I just couldn’t resist this look there oldest was giving me.  He has that sneaky look in his eyes, you just know he’s about to do something crazy! 

Thing 1.  I’m told that he has this look on his face A LOT.  I see this look a lot from my husband.   “Huh?” 

Thing 2. These two did not want to sit down. Ever.  Always running.  But that’s okay,  2 year olds’ are supposed to keep you moving right?

I just love this one.   Love the quietness of the portait.  The light is warm.  This is also the longest they all sat still. 

Let me just tell you for a bit about the things that we photographers do to get laughs and smiles out of kiddos.  I think I used every single one of them this night.  I had(pretend) birds flying around my head, and pooping on my head.  I had ducks, and fish, and squirrels in my camera lens.  Mommy and Daddy played a monster that was going to get me if they didn’t laugh.  And to top it off, I wore a (clean) diaper on my head.  In public.  I used to do it for two kids that I babysat as a teenager, and they just thought it was the funniest thing.  But that was in their house, not in public with people walking around. 

Thanks for letting me hang out with you guys for the evening I had a blast!

Merry Christmas

Wishing everyone of you a safe, healthy, and wonderfully happy Christmas!

And Happy New Year too!

Famer Family

I just love this family, they are so sweet and easy going.  Last year they were my first official (non friend or family) clients, and I was so excited that they came back to get portraits again this year!  So here is your sneak peak I hope that you enjoy!!

The whole gang.  Those kiddos were just ready to get down and run!

Baby A.  wasn’t here last year.  I love to see how this family has grown!!

And N is even cuter this year.  I’m told that its because of his momma.

Another one for Justin

This was a ton of fun! And i love how it turned out.  I know that he will love this!

Justin

I met up with Justin and his momma for a senior session.  He was great, and definitely in the running for one of my faves! Plays guitar, listens to Chili Peppers, wears a uniform…. only one small problem he’s actually choosing to go to Oklahoma State University.  I think that I can forgive him though.  I mean just look at that smile, who couldn’t?

I love it when they have great big smiles for me.

His mom tells me that he’s the top dawg in the ROTC program at Choctaw HS.

A little depth of field with his guitar.  I love depth of field.

Such a cutie!

I had a great time, thank you Justin (and mom) for letting me take your senior pics!

Teel Family!

Three great kids, and two incredible parents.  I had a blast on this session.  At one point the parents had me laughing so hard that my cheeks were hurting.  Do you have any idea how hard it is to get images in focus while your laughing?  Here you go, I hope that you will like them!

The terrific family.

 

I do believe he is going to be a heart breaker, just look at that smile!

Such a beautiful young lady! She had this great big smile the whole time.

This is their oldest, and boy he made me work! I kind of got the feeling that he had other, more important things to be doing rather than be hanging out with me for a couple of hours. But his parents and I had fun torturing him with my camera.  In the end it was his dad who had him cracking a smile, and then breaking down with laughter (and me!).  He is the cutest kid, but he probably wouldn’t like me calling him cute, so don’t tell him.
