Senior: Abbey

More to come from Abbey's shoot. This girl is gorgeous. I mean check out those eyes! Blessed.

Senior: Layni.

Layni's photo session was so much fun!  We explored new places and she was so willing to try new things!  I also loved hearing her perspective and her wants.  When clients are open it is easier for me to capture their personality!  Loved this shoot!

Senior: Shaylie

Shaylie has gotten lots of practice, being the sister of a photographer and everything. . . but besides that it is really easy for someone to look good if she is beautiful!!  My sister is absolutely gorgeous, I am not biased either, I mean look at her!  I love her!

Cheers!

Elder Shepherd.

My dear friend and following amigo has been called to serve the Lord's Mission in Little Rock, Arkansas!  I had given him a free shoot for Christmas and so on Saturday we went to town.  Not only did we get a lot a fun shots it was so good to just spend some one-on-one time with Taylor before he leaves!   Check out this studly man!     

He has quite the smolder!  

Cheers!

Lady Nan.

The lovely Lady Nan and I went out to start her Senior Picture portfolio this afternoon.  I say "start" because by the way things are looking it is going to be a process that takes all summer.  I am very much okay with that though.  Lady Nan is my sister, best friend and I also refer to her as my "Spot-finder".   Here is a preview of  what we did in the short time we had before the sun went down.  

We got eaten alive by misquotes, I have been itching all night.

Cheers!

Elder D. Hales- (soon to be)

I basically feel pretty legit right now, the whole fact that people actually like my work still baffles me to the point where I have to double check and make sure that I am not dreaming.  My photography is improving all the time and I love it!  I have never taken a class and so everything I do is just from teaching myself- my processes of "guess and check".  

Today I had another missionary session.  Can I just say that indoor sessions are really easy- maybe a little too easy at times, but I love love loved how my new little studio has worked out!  Daniel came over this evening for his mission shoot and I swear that kid was in and out of here in less than a half hour!  (high five for working fast!)  I have done a marathon editing session, because Daniel needs his pictures and I am going to Powell tomorrow!  VACATION!  (it's okay to be jealous- I would be jealous of me too!)  

Thanks Daniel I really hope you like them!  I think they turned out great!

Cheers!

Missionaries!

Today was an adventure.

My mom and I threw together a backdrop in an hour and I must say I was rather impressed with our skill!  Cheers, to my first studio-ish type session!  It rocked!

Amy and Matt will both be leaving on their missions the beginning of June.  I am so excited for them!  Matt and I met during a leadership conference our junior year in high school and Amy is his older sister. We worked fast this afternoon and I was really pleased with the shots that we got!  I would say my first portrait style/studio shoot was a success!

Thanks Amy and Matt!  

Cheers,

Kels
