Kirsten’s First Birthday Party

April 25, 2010

think I’m starting to take a liking to photographing “1st Birthday” Parties. There are just so many priceless first time moments to be captured during this celebration. Blowing out the candles for the first time, eating birthday cake, & of course opening birthday gifts. All for the first but certainly not the last time. When I think of turning 1yrs old or a first birthday party, it reminds me of this birthday card in one of our family photo albums back at home. The card is an image of a 1 yr. old with his bib, birthday hat, & a face full of birthday cake EVERYWHERE. So, every time I photograph a child’s first birthday party & get the “cake” shot, it takes me back down memory lane.

These images are from Kirsten’s first birthday party on April 25. I’ve known both of Kirsten’s parents (Josh & Christina) for several years now & we even took a couple of classes together back in college. So it was an honor when Christina asked if I would photograph the party & Kirsten’s christening. Everyone really enjoyed themselves & had fun watching Kirsten eating cake & opening her birthday gifts.

I hope you all enjoy these images. I have several favorites but the one that stands out the most of the black & white image of Kirsten looking up into the camera with a face full of cake lol. PRICELESS….

Reggie + LaDonna’s Engagement Portraits

April 4, 2010

I had to pleasure of photographing another great engagement session with one more of my college buddies Reggie and his fiance’ LaDonna. This was probably one of my most laid back sessions to date. The only instructions I had for them was to just have fun & pretend like I wasn’t even there. As you can see from these images they did just that! I’m also glad that we chose to shoot down at the train depot. I’ve done several other portrait sessions there but each one is unique in its own way. It was really hard to choose which photos I wanted to share with you all but I’ve narrowed it down to the images below so enjoy !!! See you in September at the wedding & thanks again !!!
