Next Senior!!!!

February 24, 2010

Had a blast with this senior, it was a little cold but it really could have been worse for February, the only bad thing was ALMOST getting stuck….standing water is not a good thing.  And then we aren’t going to talk about the cat incident either.  I also had the opportunity to work with some more dramatic lighting….I’ve been wanting to try it for awhile and I LOVE how the staircase shot turned out.

So what better way to celebrate my 16th wedding anniversary than to make my brand new wedding website LIVE!!!!  I’m sure all of you noticed the new portrait site went live last month, with new music featured by Jason Manns (and totally check out his website and let him know how much we appreciate him and his music, links on the website and up above) and I’m so excited for all of you to see the new one.  The link should work on the main page now, or to go directly visit:  www.weddingsbyclgphotography.net .  Tell me what you think and keep checking back, I’m still working on getting all my stuff on there.

I’ve taken this little guys pictures several times before, and its always so amazing to see how big they are getting.  He wasn’t so sure about his cake, until his mom gave him a FORK and then he went to town, I laughed so hard at the poor little guy. 

We also had the chance to take a few pics of one of his big sisters, she is always such a poser and makes my job SO easy.

with this couple and their bridal party, the boys were on top goof off mode, the girls were full of smiles and I think we laughed during the whole event.   And then to top off the whole evening….when I asked the grooms brothers what they did in the Navy, I ended up getting the “if we told you we would have to kill you speech” and I wasn’t quite sure if they were joking or not. LOL  

Congratulations to both the Bride and Groom, and thank you so much for letting me be part of your day!!!!!

and what a difference that 3 months make.  He was ALL smiles (and sometimes growls) and totally cracked me up.  I had a really hard time figuring out which ones to put on here, I think he had a perfect grin in each shot.

and made for a fun afternoon….I’m not sure I’ve had this many people in the studio before.   But it actually went very smoothly and we ended up with some great shots.

that we got this little guy and his younger brother in the studio when we did, just a few days later he ended up in the hospital.  This session was part of the Littlist Hero Project and he is an amazing little boy, and the whole shoot I think I smiled the entire time….and he did too.

was cracking me up…..he was very much NOT into taking pics….but once we started bribing him with fruit snacks, it was all good.  We got one smile for each piece of snack, so I had to make them count.  But once he started giving up the grins, we ended up with some great pics.

this little guy is.  I was so excited to get him into the studio once again since he was my very first newborn whose pictures I had taken professionally.  And I still remember how scared of him I was. LOL  He is an onery little toddler now, but was full of all sorts of smirks and grins for me.

I’ve had the chance to photograph this group of brothers, and they were all as cute as I remembered.  Plus I still can’t get over how much the middle guy looks like his dad, which I’m pretty sure they hear alot.
