If I Had a Million Dollars

August 13, 2011 By katrina Leave a Comment

Today I had a fabulous family session.

We chanced the rain, and it was a good gamble to make since we had perfect difused light the whole time. Normally, I have to coax smiles out of teenage boys, but these guys were the the exception. They were goofballs and I had such a blast photographing them! We did a variety of poses, getting some of the boys individually and some with their mom. We walked around and chatted about what cool car we’d buy if we had a ton of money…and we settled on me getting a diamond grill for when I shoot fancy weddings ; )

Joanne, thank you so much for letting me spend time with your family, here are a few of my favorites!

Rockstars and Faeries

June 14, 2011 By katrina 1 Comment

I love working with Courtnie’s family. It started with her wedding, then family pictures, then extended family pictures, and now they are just regulars. It is so fun hanging out with all of them!

We had a perfect cloudy day for a family session and photographed both Courtnie and Brian and their new little one as well as Courtnie’s sister’s family. I must admit that it was hard to keep the camera off of Izzy, the beautiful red head. Not only because I’m jealous of her gorgeous hair, but she is such a little faerie! Especially when mom put on her amazing tutu. We basically took it really easy, explored the gardens and let the kids play. We also tested out Studio Laguna’s newest prop, an antique Radio Flyer wagon. Brian also had his son in his guitar case, just to finalize the fact that he will be a rockstar someday.

Here are my favorite images, enjoy!

Polka Dots and Lilacs

I had a lovely family session on Saturday morning. Though she was a very serious little girl, she sure had smiles for daddy, and there was a very specific noise mom made that really got her laughing! We had a few outfit changes, played with fresh flowers, and enjoyed the breeze along the river.

Here are my favorites! Enjoy!

Jack is “so big!”

After a very rainy and dismal spring, we had the perfect day today. And I was so excited that today was Jack’s portrait session! The trees were blooming, the light was perfect, and Jack was ready to explore.

Paul and Kelly are so fun! They are fantastic parents and I enjoyed just watching them interact with their little boy. We kept the session very unstructured and focused on exploring (key for toddler portrait sessions) and had so much to look at and do that the hour flew by. Jack showed us all his one year old tricks, how he can smell flowers, clap, say he is so big, smell more flowers, throw rocks…what a life! =)

Paul and Kelly, here are my favorites from the day, enjoy!

Vintage Vibe

It was a blustery evening in Blaine tonight, but Jessie and her family were ready for their portraits anyway! I first photographed Jessie’s family when her little one was still in utero, and it was so fun to meet up with them a couple years later and see how the kids have grown and changed.

Jessie really wanted a fun vintage vibe to the session, so we did pictures both at their lovely home and a lot near the house with some nice overgrowth. I brought out my favorite chair so the kids would have something to play on, and they did such a good job. It helps that Alex was adorable in her pink tutu, the contrast with the antique chair was awesome. We kept things light and fun, which is essential for toddlers and photography, and the kids had a great time. Here are my favorites!
