My first outdoor session of the year!! | Child Photographer Carlisle, Kentucky

2010-04-06T13:14:00.004-04:00

I cannot believe Miss E is a year old!!! she was one of the first newborns that I photographed!!

It still amazes me that I get to watch all of these little ones grow up. I ♥ my job!

I believe this is was the quickest session so far. We were done in maybe 10-15 minutes due to the weather. Thank goodness E was in a great mood!!

Easter Minis! | Carlisle Kentucky Child Photographer

2010-03-27T10:54:00.004-04:00

I wanted to say a big Thank You to everyone who came out for my Easter pictures!

I had a wonderful turnout. I met so many new families, it was amazing!

Thanks to everyone who helped w/the animals and bob the lamb!

These are my favorite images from each Saturday Session (to be continued on another post b/c I am limited to the number of photos I can post).

Maternity | Carlisle Kentucky Photographer

2010-03-11T17:04:00.004-05:00

This mom wanted to make sure to get maternity pictures w/her second child. She had some complications with the first one and was unable to have them done. We scheduled the session a month early however we didn't know she was going to end up on bedrest so soon. I suppose it was always a possibility but still. She called me on Saturday and we did the session the next day. This was the first time I have done maternity pictures in a clients home and I hope it isn't the last. I had so much fun! Mom was supposed to stay seated as much as possible. We all know how hard that is w/a 2 year old around, luckily one of her amazing friends was able to come by so that we would have an extra set of hands. Thanks A I appreciate all of your help!!!

I cannot wait to meet baby girl B!

J and I had alot of fun in the studio. We built towers and knocked them down. We built some more towers and knocked them down again and again. We even played w/balloons and played golf. I love it when kids come to my studio and feel comfortable! Makes things so much easier on everyone.

Thanks for bringing him by to celebrate his 2nd birthday!

(you can also find J here, here, here, and here i love watching them grow!)

Big Boy E | Child Photographer Carlisle, KY

2010-01-06T10:58:00.002-05:00

the last time I saw this little guy was when he was 6 months old

Photographing him this time was much different! I loved hearing him ask his mom what everything was. You could tell mom was used to it b/c she answered him w/o missing a beat!

I definately remember those days!

G- Your proofbook has been ordered, I will contact you as soon as it is in!

One way to display your photos...| Carlisle Kentucky Photographer

2010-01-02T13:05:00.004-05:00

I recently got to visit one of my clients home. This was one of the few times I have been able to see how a client displays their photos. One of my favorite things to suggest to clients are to do a wall gallery or grouping of photos. I made sure to take a photo of her wall gallery.

this is a hallway so I was unable to get a straight shot.

What is a post w/o a shot or two of H at his home?

The C Family | Carlisle Kentucky Portrait Photographer

2009-12-13T19:27:00.002-05:00

Wild & crazy... | Photographer Carlisle, KY

2009-12-02T11:13:00.002-05:00

This family reminds me of my family. The way they behaved in the studio is exactly how I imagine my kids would be. Silly and happy. Mom wanted photos that showed her kids personality and I definately think that I managed to capture their spirit. Especially after taking them outside. It was great meeting you all!

family of 4 | Carlisle Kentucky Photographer

2009-12-01T23:12:00.003-05:00

Miss L's first Christmas | Carlisle Kentucky Photographer

2009-11-25T16:34:00.002-05:00

the 3 j's | Child Photographer Carlisle, KY

2009-11-22T22:34:00.002-05:00

I love photographing these guys. I usually end up calling them by the wrong names but i believe the older two have gotten used to me by now. I had to throw an out take in there just for fun :)

I think we managed to get a few good ones.

Thanks for showing me the cabin. Loved it!

birthday girl | Carlisle Kentucky Photographer

2009-11-22T22:13:00.002-05:00

This little girl does not like my studio but that is okay b/c we did manage to get a few good pics of her on her birthday. So glad we had the balloons left over from an earlier session to help entertain her.

S&R Hope you enjoyed Chuckie Cheese!!

Ms. M | Carlisle Kentucky Photographer

2009-11-20T11:55:00.003-05:00

This was my first time meeting Ms. M so I was definately looking foward to this session. Chloe came along for this session b/c she wanted to M eat cake :). M loved watching Chloe and eventually followed her around the studio. I love to watch how mom and child interact and these two are definately a pair to watch. M loves to be entertained by mom and mom loves to entertain her.

I had so much fun w/both of you.

You gallery will be ready soon!!

2009-10-08T12:05:00.002-04:00

isn't it hard when your mom wants you to stand at a t-ball game?!?! whoever heard of such things, after all they put that dirt there just for the kids to play in, right? :)

this little girl belongs to a very dear friend of mine and this is why i can chuckle at these photos. i know that her mom can chuckle to b/c well it is a little funny, especially if you know her and her mom. this little girl is 4 and already has so much attitude. i cannot wait to see what she is like at 13!

siblings | family photographer Carlisle, KY

2009-08-14T09:43:00.004-04:00

These two kids were so sweet! Little man A was so quite, I think he only said a few words. He was a little hard to get him to smile but as soon as mom & dad mentioned ice cream he would turn on the charm! Baby girl A was so happy, especially when her mom was talking to her!

K- this is a quick sneak peek for you, I hope to have your gallery up soon!!

4 months | Child Photographer, Carlisle, KY

2009-08-12T21:17:00.005-04:00

I was very excited when Miss E's mom said she wanted to bring E back for photos. L wasn't sure if she should bring E in at 3 months or 4 months and I told her to wait and see what E is doing at 3 months. If she still isn't doing alot at 3 months then wait for 4 months, it is completely up to you, and this is what I think every parent should do. L brought E in at the perfect time, in my opinion of course! This little girl was/is a pro at being on her belly. she is quite the nosey one but I enjoyed every minute watching her watch me!

These are a couple of my favorites from the session...

(you can also find baby girl E here)

Just wanted to share a view photos from Miss A's first birthday! The kids and I went to visit mom in Franklin the same weekend of her party. We went out the day before and got some photos of A (third photo). I think she remembered me b/c on the day of her party she was quite the model! Mom and I took her outfront for some photos before she got to dive into her cake!

Thanks Margret for letting me capture another celebration!

Your cd should be in the mail by tomorrow!

{spunky} | Carlisle Kentucky Child Photographer

2009-07-22T13:18:00.003-04:00

is this little guy not the cutest thing?!

he did all he could to not smile for me but i was able to catch a few. even w/o smiles he is still a handsome thing.

I usually don't do many plays for my clients. I couldn't resist playing w/these photos. The first one is a little vintage looking, I thought it went well w/his overalls/farmer look.

I am so glad mom brought him in, cannot wait to see him again!

Mom-you should be getting an email in the next 24 hours!

I can still hear it! Aunt Michele did a wonderful job getting smiles and giggles from this little man. I know mom is waiting patiently, or not so patiently, for a sneak peek. I had to share this one b/c well it just makes me smile. I should have your gallery up tomorrow.

I had so much fun shooting this session! This girl is such a wonderful kid. I enjoyed running around town w/Ms. M and her mom. She is a very quiet girl but w/the little sister out of the way ;) we had some time to chat. She didn't want to stop taking pictures. I would ask her if there was any other places to go and she would say "ummm" and look at her mom.

Ms. M, hope you like your jumping shot!!

I have to say that I was VERY excited when TJ called me about newborn photos. I love meeting new clients and the fact that she wanted newborn photos made it that much better. Tj, I have had so much fun playing w/your photos. Here are just a couple to share until your gallery is ready.

I posted a "play" photo w/your little man and one that isn't a play.

Thanks again for letting me photograph your beautiful family!

Baby M | Newborn Photographer Carlisle, KY

2009-06-10T23:10:00.002-04:00

I was very excited when baby M's mom contacted me for a newborn session. Loved this little guys name, I really feel like it fits him well. ( I do not share names unless permission is given by the parents) This little guy stayed awake for at least 2 hours. I can only hope that he slept well on the ride home :) I usually like for my newborns to sleep but he was so content no matter where we put him that it still worked out well.

Jennifer- thank you for allowing me to capture this time in your sons life. I hope you love these images.

your gallery should be up later tomorrow, just wanted to share a few here first.

Kelly's Kids

2009-05-19T10:29:00.003-04:00

I did a session on Sunday for a wonderful family in Lexington. Jason and I used to work w/the mother and I also babysat for her oldest while I was pregnant w/Chloe. I posted a sneak peek in the previous post so this post is more for the clothes that her beautiful children are wearing. I am very impressed with how they look. I usually try to not purchase clothes that will cause me to freak out if my kids get something on them. I also try to dress my kids a comfortable as I can because that is how I love to dress. These clothes are cute and the kids seemed to be comfortable in them (we were there for almost 2 hrs). Here is one of the kids, love how you can coordinate the boys with the girls.

Hopefully Leslie can send me a link to post here just in case you want to see more of what Kelly's Kids offer.

I love that I am able to call up friends and say "hey it is beautiful day, wanna do some photos w/pettiskirts & parasols" and my friends are always up for it. I love that I am able to do what I love and love what I do. This little girl is pretty much like my other daughter (along w/chloe's other friends). I had certain things in mind and well honestly she had her own plan.

In my mind I wanted a girl w/a parasol in a field. We had the parasol, the girl, and the field but I couldn't seem to get the girl in the field. Since there were mosquites everywhere we compromised and put the chair in front of the field. At first she wasn't into it then she started to tell me about Friday. Hunter's computer time depends on his behavior (it is working so far b/c we have gone at least 3 days w/o a typical hunter tantrum) and Kayleigh's "friday" depends on her behavior. On friday she gets to spend time w/some special people (Jena & "ty ty") this is what she looked like when she told me about her plans for friday.

Jena & "Ty Ty"

just so you know, Kayleigh is expecting to make cookies and a few other things, hope u all have fun!!!

this boy was so much fun!! most of the kids I photograph are happy kids but this little guy has to be one of the happiest. He had a smile on his face w/o me having to make faces (or mom).

I will be emailing your gallery link to you soon!

let me know if you like it. the only way to have less white space is to use all vertical photos.

the black border will not be in the print (if you like it), i needed to add it so that the white wouldn't get lost in the background.
