Summers Family Pictures

A couple of nights ago I took these pictures for the Summers family. Chantelle and I have been friends for a REALLY long time. It was fun to get to take these pictures even though I was having issues with our lighting equipment. Nate has been remodeling our bathroom so I was flying solo on this shoot, and indoor lighting is definitely HIS forte, not mine.

Zach, their little boy, was being quite the ham for the pictures and would only smile using reverse psychology on him telling him not to smile. It was pretty funny. Violet, the baby, was also a little difficult to get to smile but good thing babies look cute even when they are not smiling or even trying.

I ended up having to do a lot of head switching in Photoshop but it was worth it for the end result! I hope you enjoy the pictures Chantelle and Todd!

Amber and Brady


On Saturday I spent the morning with Amber and Brady Sibbett. They are an incredibly attractive couple that made it easy to take their pictures. Although it was freezing and the wind was blowing, you can't really tell from the pictures. We kept running back in the house or in the car to warm up between shoots. They asked me to take some pictures of them since they hadn't had professional pictures taken since their wedding and engagement pictures. They are currently in the adoption process and wanted some new pictures for their blog. If anyone would like to check it out, the blog is www.bradyandamberadoption.blogspot.com (side note: if the site doesn't work, try removing the www. On an Apple you need the www, on a PC you don't). Good luck with everything Amber and Brady and thank you for letting me take your pictures!
