Carole has lots of tshirts.

I had a wonderful evening with Carole and her mom and the rest of the family during her senior pictures.

Had an awesome time with Kate despite the fact that I was having a bad day.  I broke my pocket wizard during her shoot.  I swung my camera over my shoulder to move might light stand and the pocket wizard with flash on it came right off.  Luckily pocket wizard is fixing it right now for me.  They said it broke during normal use so they would do that for me.  :)  yeah pocket wizards.  I have like 4 of them and huge fan so it just seals the deal on me liking them.

Before anyone else asks…. yes the sky was that amazing.  I showed Kate the back of my camera so she knows.  I didn’t do much photoshop work at all on it.

I had a blast with Becca and her gang.  I just love that first picture of her on the truck.  Big thanks to Doug Shannon for bringing it over to the studio for her to use.

I am going to start off  by sharing the last couple photos of the hot and humid evening with Courtney.  We were waiting for just alittle bit so the sun went down alititle more and all the sudden Courtney yells “RAINBOW!” so we scurry and grabbed a few shots before it was gone which didn’t take long it all.  It is pretty amazing there even was one last night because it only rained a few drops where we were.

Courtney brought her best buddy Megan… (yep the same Megan that was on the blog last week with the 4 horses)

Everyone has a friend that seems to be good at everything, well Courtney is that friend to many people.

First off, she sews.  The outfit she is wearing and the ones hanging on the stand she made.  Pretty cool huh!  She will be modeling the one she is wearing down at State Fair.  And then there are alot of trophies there in the picture from other 4H projects.

And she is one AMAZING gymnast.  Do you see what the jacket says there in the back…. “National Champion”

She is a cheerleader too. (I really good one!)  We are going to take her cheerleading pictures in the fall because she still has more medals to win in that category.

Huge thanks to Megan for helping with all of Courtney’s stuff!  I had so much fun with you guys, wish it wasn’t so humid, but if I had to sweat with someone I would rather it be you girls.  LOL

SISTERS!

Meet Taylor, she is 7 and is such a good sister…

Here’s Ella.  She’s TWO!  She is fun to be around and likes to do whatever her big sister Taylor is doing.

And this is their little baby sister Georgia.  She is only two months old and when you look at her you just can’t help but saying, AWWW!

Thanks girls for being soo good for me.  I had a blast taking your pictures.  I hope you had fun at your great grandma’s house after you left here.

I ended up with 3 mosquito bites trying to get this picture….

Still can’t believe we managed to get this photo.  Luckily Megan has nice horses, most people couldn’t do something like this.

It got alittle bit too dark on us, we kinda goofed off alittle too much.  I still have one shot I need to get but I will get that next week when Megan comes to Courtney’s senior session.  Speaking of Courtney….

Ever heard the song  ”Too Much Fun” by Daryle Singletary.  Yeah well Courtney had too much fun the other night.  She got dressed up in some of my kid props.

She tried to leave the studio with my stuff but I wouldn’t let her.  She was a good reflector holder.

Thanks girls (well and Jim too) for the fun evening.  I can’t wait until Courtney’s so we can have round 2 of “too much fun!”

It was super windy and HOT the other day when we took Mariah’s senior pictures.  She was a trooper though, she didn’t complain a bit.  Have a great senior year Mariah, I hope it is a cool fall for you guys and girls at the academy.

Grandma and Grandpa are known for their awesome garden, so we had to take a few pictures there….

Never too old or big to sit on dad’s lap.  Although I am thinking Eric is way too big.  He’s got to be like 6’5″ or so, but that doesn’t stop him.  So glad I had my camera ready to grab this shot.

Thanks gang for allowing me to photograph your family again, I had fun.  I think I captured all the fun stuff at grandma and grandpa’s house (the kittens, garden, pool, tire swings)

PS  I went to school with Eric, Dave and Tara.  Also Dave and Eric’s grandparents live just down the road from me, the stopped over and I got some pictures of them too.  So glad, you guys will cherish those too.

Here he is… my last 2010 senior (well I think, unless someone else wants some really cool senior pictures and hasn’t had them taken yet)

Nathan’s girlfriend and her sister came with for the session.  We had fun.  Here is Nathan and Shalea (btw she is one of my 2011 super seniors)…

Thanks for doing such a good job Nathan despite the fact that you didn’t want senior pictures.  Glad your girlfriend and mom talk you into it.  See you Friday night at graduation commencement.

I just love these two.  So glad I am shooting their wedding.  I photographed them both for their senior pictures and also shot Julia’s sister Sarah’s wedding.  They both have wonderful families.  We started off in the studio… This next photo is so them.  Julia laughing and Justin holdin’ Julia tight with a big smile on his face.

Then we wondered around near the buildings because it kept raining…

They kept kissing each other…

Then we went to the 4-H fairgrounds.  Julia was fair queen and Justin was king (just not the same year).  They both continue to be very active with 4-H.  Oh and I almost forgot to add that Justin asked Julia to marry him at last year’s 4-H Fair.

Thanks for such a wonderful rainy afternoon.  Glad we got the pictures done despite some occasional rain.

I had lots of fun with Chloe.  I asked her what she liked and she said “trees”.  How cute is that.  She is a nature lover.  She’s also super sweet.  She helped me carry all my crap around during the photo shoot.  I have to give a shout out to her cousin Preston that sent her my way.  Thanks Preston!!!!

He so looks like he is getting away with something here…

Hey dad, I am ready to go hunting…

The Elizabeth’s Garden Gang… Penny, Barb, Elizabeth and Victor (he’s the one that runs the place)
