Spring is back in Swing!

It has been a few months since my last post.  I had a wonderful winter full of lots of snow photos, but now we are back into Spring and I am getting increasingly busy :)  I have 5 weddings in the book so far this year and a day of outdoor mini sessions coming up.  I plan to run lots of specials and fun events this spring into fall so keep an eye out and get your appointments in quick.  My last offer filled up in less than 8 hours.  YAY!

I have been able to have a 2-3 day turn around time for the past few weeks now and hope that when I get busy it will continue to stay around that time.

I am also in the process of finding a new home to host my high quality images.  Looking into flicker at the moment.

Anyway, just wanted to say hello to all my fans and let you know that the blog posts are coming back in full swing and you will notice some pretty amazing changes this year.

I had a wonderful outdoor session yesterday with the gorgeous Miss Karissa.  This girl knows how to work the camera and is a total blast to work with.  Check back this summer because we have an amazing shoot in the works

Snow much fun

Well here we are just a few days away from Christmas and we have SNOW!  I am hoping it stays.  I had planned to be closed until the new year, but the weather changed that.  I am a sucker for little kids playing in the snow so I offered a special on my page.  The special filled up almost immediately, BUT I plan to offer a special every day from here until Christmas.  Stop by the website www.photolovephotography.com or www.facebook.com/photolovephotography for your chance to snag a deal! 

The countdown is on

I have been completely slacking in the blog category lately.  With the holidays and weddings I have been behind the lens quite a bit.  I have been doing a lot to give back lately.  I offered a free session to a family who's son is battling cancer.  I have began to try to gather funds for a family in need this season.  I have really shifted my focus into helping others any way I can. 

I just wanted to apologize for the lack of posts and to give you all a few peeks of what I have been up to.

 

Falling in love with these frames!

I have 3 of these beauties on the way for my fall sessions!

One of my favorite things about fall is pumpkins.   My all day every day favorite thing is photography.  I decided to incorporate both of my favorite things this season.

I will be offering 2 - 8x10's and 1 - 11x14 sized pumpkin frames for use in photos.  I also have an 11x14 chalboard insert for them.   I can not wait to put these to use.

Love is in the air!

Fall is by far my favorite season.  The colors, temperatures, pumpkin pie, and football are some of my very favorite things.  

On top of the usual things people love about fall, there is the fact that it is wedding season for me.
I had the pleasure of doing engagement pictures for 2 beautiful couples recently.  I will be photographing one of those couples weddings this October.  I am so excited.  I love capturing those tender moments for them.  It is an honor that they chose me out of the many local options to snap them.  

Here are a few peeks from those session

 

A big Congratulations to both couples!

 

The new school pictures

I had the pleasure of photographing one super cool little man the other day.  They parents opted for a more personal setting for school photos and I think it could not have went any better.  Not only are the photos original, but they are personal because they were at a location that they chose.  When you put a child into a position where they do not feel comfortable you run the risk of those "fake" smiles because you are telling them to do it.  If you give them a bit of freedom you can end up with truely perfect smiles for the subject.

Just a teeny warning.  If you pull a hot rod out during the shoot you will finish with the hot rod!  Once the car was pulled out of the garage I lost him.  lol

  But even though I lost him to the car, he rocked it!  This is my favorite picture from the shoot.  He was in his element here and it shows.

First Birthday Princess

Today I headed outdoors for a gorgeous blue eyed cutie's first birthday photos.  She was such a trooper and absolutely adorable. 

One can never go wrong with anything pink, pearls, lemons, tutus, and bows!  This is every little princesses dream.

I absolutely love my clients and my job. Shoots like these remind me every single day just how lucky I am.  I get to document childrens lives.   I get to watch them grow.  It is such a rewarding feeling.

I love to see the smiles and warmth that follows.  It is far too easy these days to focus on the negatives.  I truly believe that the smiles of children are rays of sunshine.  For those moments the world seems to fade and you are focused on the sweet innocence of a child. 

Anyway, I just wanted to share a few peeks of this sweethearts special day.

Happy Birthday Kinley
