So Fun....Overland Park Senior Photographer

This family was so great to work with. It started out as a senior session (although she graduated in May *wink*) and turned into a fun session with her 3 sisters and brother. Even though it was a SUPER hot day, we had a great time and got some great images! I'm so happy to have met this group, they were the nicest people. I'd almost have two more kids if I could guarantee they'd have a great time together like this.


Okay, maybe not! :)

First off, this lovely lady.









We then met up with the Fam.












It got a little silly!
Then more silly...

Then Mom got pulled in....AWWWW. I actually LOVE this image. When my boys are grown I want one just like it! :)

Last but not least, they pulled out all the stops when they decided to do the "boy band" pose. So what else could I do but make them an original album cover? Sort of love it!

Taking Better Pics: Part 2 Fill the Frame...Get CLOSE!

This may seem obvious...but often it isn't. Now, there are going to be times that you want some negative space...but don't be afraid to get close. Especially of your children! The close face shots show off their personality and are always favorites! This is also helpful when you've "found the light" but it has an unfavorable background!

Here are some examples of images that wouldn't be the same if I'd been farther away. Don't be afraid to get into their space!! :) ( Or zoom in...if possible)

Something Different!

Last month I was privileged to do a really fun shoot for Nuance boutique. Nuance is a really fun shop in Northern Olathe, right by Olathe Northwest High School. It has the most awesome clothes and accessories. Even fun gift items, I could have shopped all day in there. Anyway, my adorable neighbor Kayla was a model, along with Tina York. They were amazing, and Rachel Sann Pheffer was an incredible stylist...who also owns Nuance. Hair and makeup on Kayla was done by Jen Thomas from the Last Tangle Salon. she was awesome. It was a good time, and you can find these photos in ads in HerLife and Kansas City Fitness Magazine this month!! :)
