Nick's Senior Session.

You ever just have one of those days? You know where you feel like you left your brain in bed and you went back to find it but your sheets were missing and the brain was no where to be found. What you have no idea what I'm talking about? Oh well, today was one of those days for me. Thank goodness Nick and his mom were so patient with me. We took way, way too long for his session but Nick is really a heck of a kid. He just sat back and had fun. It's a good thing too because once I found that brain of mine (it's about the size of a pea so it can be hard to find) we got rollin' and captured, what I feel, is some of our best work yet. I'm sure Nick will love them and I hope you all will as well. Thanks again Nick and Elaine. We had a great time today and thanks to you I'm now craving Taco Tierra!!!!!

New Gallery Wrap Sale!!!!

I really love these canvas gallery wraps we've been selling and I've decided to make it easier for our customers to buy them. Starting now when you buy a gallery wrap 16x20 or bigger you can get 2 traditional 8x10 prints for free. 8x10's really shouldn't go on a wall (they're toooooooo small) but they look great on a shelf or desk. So now with this sale, you can get that nice canvas and still get the 8x10's for Grandma and not have to worry about paying extra for them. The sale will end on the last day of October so schedule your session today. Give Adrienne a call and she'll work out the details and answer any questions you may have about the canvas gallery wraps.


PS. We've been working on our wedding pricing and also the much requested baby plan we've been talking about for so long. More to come on that soon.

Amanda's Senior session

Amanda got her senior pictures taken on Saturday with the "rockstar" team of Dan and Adrienne working the camera. (I am totally not above shameless self-promotion) Any way getting back to Amanda, the session started off a little slow, she's kind of like me she would rather be outside. Once we got out of the studio and in the fresh air she livened up and those beautiful eyes really started to sparkle. We went to her house and got some great stuff around her dad's lake. Even got some with her car and the "McCrary Motors" license plate "her dad's favorite part of the car." Thanks Amanda for choosing us to take you senior pics. We really appreciate it and we had a great time working with you. As always here's a sample of what Amanda will have to choose from.

Bailey is 1 year old.

I got to see an old friend from school Saturday. Jason brought his son Bailey to the studio for 1 year old pictures. Of course cake was involved and also some neat little props. This little guy has plenty of character and it shows in the pictures. Thanks guys for coming over. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.

The Hensler Family

This weekend we got the opportunity to shoot for this lovely family, the Henslers. We did some family shots and a 1 year old cake session for Myra. First time we had a little one that wasn't too interested in the cake. It's cool though cause for some reason when you're 1 year old you don't really have to do what everyone wants you to do in order to look cute, you just have to be "1 year old." We got some great expressions out of this little girl and it was a blast taking the pictures. Thanks a lot Hensler family, here is a little preview of your images.

Cheri's 5 kids.

Cheri and her 5 children were visiting in Oakland and called us up the other day. Much like the shots of Lisa's kids below we squeezed them in and got some fun stuff. We were again out in the 1 remaining wheat field getting all itchy. We started the session out a Mike and Monica's place and the kids loved it. Not too many chickens where they're from, I guess ;) . We had fun as usual and with 5 children there was no lack of excitement. All in all, we captured some really nice stuff and I'm sure Cheri and her family will love them. Here's a small sample of what they will be getting.

Chelsea's Senior Session

Ok let me start by saying..We had a freakin' blast yesterday shooting this young lady. Chelsea, her mom and Chelsea's cousin, Emily, all came over and we ran a little marathon 6 hour session. This session had it all! We got the cops called on us (that's getting to be a habit), got jabbed in the but with some bark, got wet, and I'm pretty sure broke a few minor laws though I'm pleading the fifth on that one. All in all I'm not kidding at all when I say we had fun. Emily come see us when you get to be a senior. Mom thanks for your help, we can always use a good reflector holder. Chelsea, best of luck kiddo we'll be in touch.
