Shauna – Just Play’n!

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

Had Shauna and her little sister Shea in a couple weeks ago for a fun shoot one morning…EARLY!  Had to have my coffee!

Shea is going to be one of my senior models next year, and I shot Shauna’s senior pictures last fall.  So, it was cool to hang out with them for a morning, and of course get some amazing photographs!

Here’s a few from Shauna’s shoot.  Shea’s coming up soon!

Wilson Family

Tuesday, July 28th, 2009

I had the pleasure of doing a photo session with the Wilson family several weeks ago.  We enjoyed a fantastic setting, beautiful sunset, and overall just a good time!  Melinda and I went to college together and it was nice to catch up a little on our families.  My how time flies!!

Here’s a few to enjoy!

Luke

Sunday, July 26th, 2009

This summer was a lot of fun watching my son play baseball, and we were very excited when he was chose for the Carthage 8yr old All-Stars!

The Carthage 8yr old All-Star baseball team was something else to watch…and truly talented group of young boys!  Carthage won their district and we’re excited to see the banner hang on the Carthage baseball field again!  The coaches did a fantastic job, and I’m very proud of all the young boys, and especially, my son Luke!!  Before we have to turn in the jersey, I thought it would be cool to get Luke out for a little photoshoot.  Here’s a few from this evening!

Enjoy!

Wedding Fun!!

Friday, July 24th, 2009

Ok…so, we all know that weddings are truly joyous occasions, some more fun then others!  I love weddings, the excitement of the bride, the wedding party, and of course the groom!  Well, this couple here with their video on YouTube, really know how to make an entrance!  I think ALL weddings should be like this!  Seriously…How fun is this??

Enjoy my friends!

If you don’t know the Lepper’s, you should.  What a great family!  I spent last Sunday afternoon with Ashley, and her Mom and Dad for a great shoot!  We had a blast with this…got Ashley into some of the vintage cars I have available, and then finished up with a killer shoot in the pool!

Robbins’ Family Shoot

Mareese contacted me the other day for a family shoot and I visited them at their beautiful home and spent a LOVELY afternoon with her and her family!  Between her two daughters there were four little boys!  They were quite fun to capture with the camera!!  We had a great sunset, and a beautiful evening for the session.

Here are a handful from the evening!

Anna – Webb City Senior Model

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

I have been working on several “top secret” senior project shoots for a while now…  ;-)

The underwater shoot was the first I got going…it was more or less just purchasing the right equipment!  I mentioned the idea to several of my senior models, and Anna was the first to try this crazy fun shoot!  We picked a great day…full sun, which, is totally necessary to get enough light underwater .  Her mom Cherrie, was awesome!  She took some great videos of the shoot…so, I’ll try and get that edited down to a nice little clip and load up on YouTube for everyone to check out.  We had some funny outtakes at the end, and a little cannonball competition.  Um….guess you’ll have to wait until you see the video to see who won…

Here’s some of the shots from the session!

Chastidy and KJ – E-session

Monday, July 13th, 2009

Chastidy and KJ are getting married this coming September in Buffalo, MO!  I’m super excited for their wedding!  We met about half-way in Springfield for their engagement session the other night, and couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful sunset.  It was great getting to know them a little better as we hung out in the downtown area.  Very cool area!

As you can see…they are truly a beautiful couple!

Chas and KJ…congratulations on your engagement and I’m looking forward to hanging out with you on your wedding day!
