Who are you?- Kirsten
In a contemporary portrait, is it enough to just portray a beautiful woman? Or should the portrait convey who she is besides beautiful? This image of Kirsten was part of a concept shoot to illustrate who she is. Personally I think we nailed it. I would love to hear opinions from others who know her. If we were to photograph you, who would you be?
Mother/daughter portraits – Caitlin and Melinda
OMG!!!! Caitlin is a quiet, laidback, pretty 16 year old. Her mom Melinda decided to surprise her with a mother/daughter contemporary portrait shoot at our studio. And Caitlin came to life in front of my camera. She became this self confident, graceful, gorgeous modelesque person that had been lurking beneath that shy shell. And mom did pretty well too! Their images of them together are a real treat, as you can see just how much they look alike! The first image you will see here is what is referred to as a beauty shot. Its pretty much all about the face and not alot of people can pull this one off, but Caitlin totally rocked it. That shot says it all! Hair and makeup by the talented and wonderful Stefani Smith.
Contemporary portrait – Crystal
Crystal used her 25th wedding anniversary as a reason to indulge in a contemporary portrait session. She is an amazing woman with a unique sense of humor and we had a great time. I had several klutz moments, but we all survived, and there are some really wonderful images to show for it!
Contemporary Mother- Daughter Portraits – Jenn and Alex
Wow! So much fun with this mom of 5 and her about-to-be-a-senior daughter! I am so glad we had the opportunity to create these amazing photos for them! I can’t wait to show them the rest!!! Can you say Awesome Mother’s Day Gift? Hair and makeup by Stefani Smith!


Portraits of Women – Mother-daughter
Last week I had the pleasure of photographing Paula and her daughter Jansyn as part of my series, Portraits of Women. This is my favorite of the images of them together. It speaks to me, reminds me of my mom, and makes me wish I had a similiar portrait for myself. Beautiful portraits are considered a luxury, but when the opportunity is gone, they become priceless.

Portraits of Women – Kirsten
Our portraits of women series include young women too! Can you imagine how much fun this would be getting hair/makeup and photos with your best girlfriends? Seriously though, Kirsten is a super sweet person and a beautiful young woman inside and out! Hair and Makeup by Sarah Kellems.
Portraits of Women – Sarah
This beautiful woman is Sarah. Would you believe that she is mom to three very active kids? I just love how easy going and laid back she is, and her gorgeous hair…..don’t even get me started. I think sometimes as women, we get stuck in a mom rut and forget that we are beautiful and a little bit sexy!
