Camp Can Do with Flashes of Hope

Each summer, the American Cancer society helps organize a camp for kids who are have or have had cancer of some sort. This is a week during the summer where they can get away from everything and make new friends with other kids who are going through the same thing. Flashes of Hope also comes each year to photograph portraits of them during their camp experience.
I am so thankful that I can continue to shoot for Flashes of Hope and give them something to remember their time at camp.

Jenna

Last night, I had the opportunity to photograph Jenna for her acting headshots. We have been doing more of these lately and I love them! It is wonderful when a person’s true personality can come through and I can capture it. Jenna is a natural born smiler. It is so hard for her to not have a smile on her face all the time. I did have her be serious a few times and she was still stunning!

Emma at Two

I couldn’t help but post these tonight! I love getting the email from Tera to let me know it is time for Emma’s photos. Last year I pretty much documented her first year and then did her one year session on the beach. We were off on vacations this year by a week, so the beach was a no go. Instead, I met everyone at Emma’s Pop Pops house. The light was absolutely gorgeous inside! Then we ventured into the the blazing sticky heat of the back yard. Emma walked around picking tomatoes and flowers and then spotted a butterfly. She was so stinkin’ cute when she blew kisses at it! Then out came the bubble machine… I wish you could have heard her squeal when she came running over to pop the bubbles! She was pretty much done after that. The heat had gotten to us all. So, here is Miss Emma at Two!

Kat’s Senior session

I’ve know Kat since she was 5. It has been a long time since I saw her last and I couldn’t believe that she was going to be senior already. Kat has turned out to be an absolutely gorgeous girl!
Her Mom called me a few months ago to schedule her senior session and the day finally came. The rain didn’t stop us from shooting either! We ran around outside the studio for a while and then headed up to the train station. (My favorite place until they renovate!) We had so much fun and Kat really knows how to work the camera even though she hates her photo taken!

Shayne at 7 months

Our second week at the beach, I had the opportunity to photograph Shayne for the 3rd installment of his Baby’s first year sessions. His parents are also good friends of ours and we all stayed together at the beach, so it was easy to capture Shayne at different times. It also helped have my youngest son there because for some reason, whenever he would move, Shayne cracked up laughing.
Here are a few of his session.

Mike, Joanna, Ryan and Megan

We are still on vacation..(Sorry, I know we have a tough life!)
Before our vacation officially started, we stayed with Mike and Joanna and 2 of their friends, Ryan and Megan. We thought it would only make sense to photograph them while we were here! Joanna and Megan are really good friends and both pregnant and due 2 weeks apart. We had such a fun time playing around on the beach and shooting super cheesy stuff as well. I am so happy we had the chance to spend part of our vacation with them. I had way too much fun picking on Mike the whole time. I’ll save the fly pics for later…. enjoy!! I am going back to the beach now…

Haley Rain

I got a call a few weeks ago that Haley Rain was born. We shot her parents wedding last year, so I was sooo excited that they called. Haley was born 5 weeks early and was a little peanut! She was up the whole time we were shooting and was looking all around. It wasn’t until I was finished that she was out in my arms… next time maybe!

Ali’s senior session

After weeks of rescheduling because of the rain, I was able to photograph Ali for her senior session. We had been planning something a little different for her. She didn’t want the typical senior portraits and loved the way I interpret things. So, here is what we came up with.
