Nicholas' Senior Portraits

Can you tell it's Senior time? We've been having a lot of them come through lately. Nicholas is Lauren's brother. He was here on Saturday and we had a great time. I really like how his car looks in this next one.He has a great smile.
We had to show that he was on a rugby team.
This is one of my favorites from the session.
The leaves almost look on fire.
I really like the texture of the old wood in this cabin.
Be sure to check out his slideshow for more images.

Nathan at One Year

Nathan has been on our Baby's First Year plan for, well, about a year, now. He just came in on Saturday for his One-Year-Old portraits. It's really interesting to see how much kids change in their first year.We brought out lots of props for him to pose with.
This rocking chair made him giggle and laugh. Hey, whatever works, right? ;-)
We haven't seen the rocking horse much this year. I'm glad it came out for this one. Look at that smile.
As always, his sister got in a few, too.
Be sure to see the slideshow for a few more images.

Alicia's Senior Portraits

Alicia was here a couple days ago for her senior portraits. It looked like it could rain, but we actually got a bit of sun.After being inside, we went out to the park, where the leaves were incredible.
Alicia's eyes look so blue with this "cross-processed" look on the image.
This next one has a little more "natural" color to it. 
We finished up on the fence by the creek.

Be sure to check out her slideshow, too.

Jenna and Sarah

Jenna and Sarah were here a few days ago and put on their cheerleading uniforms. Then they sang the OSU fight song and Hang on Sloopy.OK, they didn't really sing, but they sure looked cute in their outfits.
Here's an "O" from Hang On Sloopy (see the slideshow for the rest of the letters).
There were also many giggles.
Aren't they adorable together?
And one last one.
Be sure to see their slideshow, too.

Ivy at 7 days

Yes, you read that right. Ivy was seven days old when she had her newborn portraits done.I'm pretty sure this is the youngest baby we've had come into the studio. She was also one of the, ahem, messiest babies we've photographed. Let's just say it's not safe to hold a baby without a diaper. And you'd think we'd learn after the first time. ;-) Mom was a great sport about it and it didn't bother us at all. Everything went so well.Ivy took several breaks to nurse and we got some incredible images with Mom. This next one is precious.Isn't she tiny?
Sleeping on the towels. She was completely zonked out.
And in a little rocking chair. There are other portraits in the slideshow so be sure to check it out.

Alex G's Senior Portraits

Yes, this is another Alex who came in a while ago. We did his brother's senior portraits a couple years ago and it was nice to see Alex this time around. He brought his sweet Les Paul for a few poses.He didn't want to jump, but we all talked him into it.
His mom wanted some pictures with his glasses on, so we did a few.The weather was beautiful outside.
I really liked the clouds on that day.
The greens and browns of these grasses were perfect.
See more photos in his slideshow.

Alex A's Senior Portraits

Alex came in a few weeks ago and somehow I missed putting up a blog post. She was wonderful to work with and has a fantastic smile.
First we went outside -- it looked like it could rain and we wanted to make sure we beat it.
Overcast lighting can look so nice.
Then we went inside for a few more changes of clothes.
The bright polka-dots are so whimsical.
I really like this next one. Something about her eyes.
Remember to check out her slideshow.

Ari's First Birthday

Ari is now One! He was here a couple weeks ago for his first birthday cake portraits. He was a great sport and trashed the cake beautifully.
He's also is a big OSU fan and had to show his spirit.
Of course, Mom and Dad didn't think that OSU garb would be the best for traditional portraits, so he put on a couple more shirts.And here he is standing.
We're number one! At least, that's how old he is.
And here's one last one from the pat-a-cake session.

Be sure to see his slideshow for more images.

The Miller Family

I met up with the Miller family on Saturday for their family portrait. We walked around the lower part of Scioto Park (Leatherlips) and got some great images.They have a slideshow, too.
