The Browns

I had the pleasure of photographing the Brown family today. Coach Brown was Tori's cross country coach, and my first experience with sports at school. I have to say that she made it a pleasure. She's one of those people that you KNOW they are where they should be. She loves the kids - and after meeting her family - I realized.... goofiness must be hereditary.

All 3 of her boys have J names.... and all 3 of them are seriously goofy in a very good natured way. They were cutting up and giving each other a hard time...

This is 'my' favorite of the day...I handed them all these little sparkly gifts and said: Give them to your mom... and the laughter started...

They are definitely a gorgeous family though...

Their youngest (he is on the right) - enjoyed the 'no smiling, give me some attitude' part!

These three.... they defined 'brother' to me...

Thank you so much for letting me take your family photos - it was a pleasure!

Ms. T & Mr. S

I had the easiest photoshoot ever this morning. Ms T & Mr. S are the children from a former high school classmate of mine. We decided to meet at Terry Hershey Park to do a few shots of the kids. I hadn't met her kids yet - in fact - we haven't seen each since high school. Would you believe that she looked exactly the same?

Ms. T wants to be a singer... she definitely has the personality for it! Very friendly, and just super sweet!

Her little brother now....S just made my day. He reminds me of myself - even today. I want to know EVERYTHING. And he asks LOTS of questions.

Both of them were just wonderful to work with.

Here are just a couple of shots from today's session!

Look at this smile... does it get anymore sweet than this?



And Mr. S....



Thanks so much for hanging out with me today - I had a blast!

Homecoming 2008

I had the pleasure of photographing some of high schoolers from my daughters school. Friday night was their homecoming football game, and they won 28 to 18. Saturday night, they were enjoying it. These are just a few of the photos - I took more than 200.

Here is a group shot at the Galleria:



These kids were alot of fun. They had over an hour wait for their table at their restaurant in the Galleria, so we wandered around the mall for a while.

While we were waiting for the limo to arrive....







The galleria is full of all kinds of fun spots to take pictures in.... this brick wall just screamed out: I'll look fabulous in pictures! And it did.... the girls made it look pretty darn good too!





Ms. R has such classy style.



You guys were wonderful! Thanks for letting me hang out with you for a while. I hope you enjoyed dinner and your dance!
