This is the messiest blog post to date and I could not be happier! Have you ever wanted to get some shots of your child smashing their birthday cake? Ya, me too! I wanted Ben to dive right into his, and I wish I had this idea when it was his birthday!

I can't take the credit for the idea, David's(blue background) Mom and Dad, Shaun and Mike came to me with it and I just ran with it as soon as they told me about it. Photographers are doing here and there, but I really wanted to jump on board because it is so much FUN!

That's why, Im going to be running a special price on these sessions! If you want to have your child photographed in a smash the cake session, it will only cost you $19.95! Seriously, how can you go wrong? You gotta bring the cake though, since we are not a bakery! hahaha The sessions are fast and we take care of the mess!

Check back soon for the full sessions and some other cool stuff! Hope you like them! Spread the word, this is going to take off fast!

Family photos are also awesome when they are fun! I loved Chris and Nora's family photos right away, they were fun and that is exactly what this family is...capturing the personality of the family members in a photograph is the main goal.

Lots of families come in the studio everyday, and their idea of a family photo will range from "traditional" to "crazy fun" and everything in between. Never be afraid to tell your photographer exactly what you want. I have had many families tell me flat out exactly what they want, and what they do NOT want. That is the best way to go about it, sure I have ideas....but my idea of your family standing in a massive field of hay may be not what you had in mind. Maybe you saw your family sitting on the ground leaning up against a brick wall! Let me know!

That is the best way to go about your family photo, call us up, lets brainstorm some ideas so that you have something awesome to hang on your wall!

A nice quote from Nora about her family photos, that fits perfect..."We look crazy, but hey that's us. If you can't have fun then stay home right?"

Awesome! Thanks guys!

Gotta love shooting family photos, these guys were great! 

I really believe, that family photos are very important to have, I'm not just saying this from a photographers stand point, but because I value my family photos so much as well. We had our first real family made this year, and we love it. It hangs in our home proudly, the only problem is I will run out of wall space by the time next year rolls around.

I would like to have one main family portrait every year as my son grows up, one main large photo. I have some ideas of how I can do that and not have a big photos needing to be hung on my bathroom ceiling! 

I'm very excited about this upcoming summer, my sister is getting married and my family will finally all be together for the first time in a long time. We are going to plan a nice big family portrait and all kinds of individual family portraits...I wonder who will take it? hmmmmm

Another high school senior to blog about. Meaghan MacQueen attends Riverview and came in for her senior portfolio recently. She is quite the sports player apparently! I love seeing the girls involved in so many sports like this. As far as I remember girls were not that involved when I was in High School, I think it is great!

Anyway, check out Meaghan!
