Cameron in the Great Outdoors

Outdoor sessions with boys are pretty perfect. Cameron loved to pick up sticks and at one point had three that he was carrying around. He was a bit shy at first, but had fun just exploring as we walked around the park. I tend to make funny noises and sing crazy songs to get their attention, so if you see me at a park, do not be frightened, that is pretty normal for me. Although if I am alone, you may want to call someone.....

Devan

Devan arrived with his mom Justine for her maternity session. He was saying on his way in that he was only going to be in a couple of pictures..... Obviously he changed his mind! Every time mom stepped out of the studio for an outfit change, Devan stepped in front of the camera with an idea for a shoot of his own. He is an awesome kid and has a great personality. I could totally see him in an ad for Abercrombe. Maybe in a few years.... 

Sweet Charlotte

Charlotte has been an amazing baby so far. I cannot believe she is already a month old. Our son is adjusting pretty well and loves the baby, but he has been doing a bit more whining.... Hopefully this will soon pass! As you can tell, Charlotte is not shy in front of the camera, and I think she wanted to prove to all of my clients that I really don't mind baby pee and poo on everything in the studio. She may have been saving it up for the right moment, because each time we have her downstairs in her birthday suit, she seems to find a new item to 'christen'. We are now back in the swing of things around here and will be scheduling regular sessions again! Shoot us an email if you would like to set something up - kristyandbrent@kristyphotography.com

Ashley & Nicholas

My nephew Nicholas had his portraits taken each month for the first year of his life. Since his birthday in September, I feel like I haven't had the chance to capture his hilarious little smile. His big sister Ashley used to only sit for maybe one picture, and now she is doing fantastic. Although we had high hopes for more than one outfit, Nicholas decided it was too boring to sit still for even a second and I am thrilled that we got what we did. Maybe an outfit change next time??

Abby

Abby is one of our sweet little neighbors and to celebrate her birthday, she stopped in for a few birthday and holiday portraits. Her parents brought a few of her favorite books with them, and I love how the shots with her reading turned out. It is such a cute idea and really helps to remind you of the things your child loved during that time in their life.

Emma Lou

My sister Valerie and her daughter Emma spent the weekend with us and we had the chance to take a few portraits Sunday morning. Emma is such a smiley baby, it is so much fun making her giggle. She is already two months old, and she just keeps getting cuter! I can't wait until next month.

Griffin Football Fotos

Last week before taking portraits of our new niece Emma, my nephew Griffin and I had some fun goofing around in the studio. Here are a few of my favorites, and maybe someday when I am really feeling confident I will post the images he took of me! (He makes a great assistant, and I am excited for when he is old enough to help out more!)

Riehl Family Portraits

I was blessed enough to meet the Riehl family when I worked at the Country Club of Lansing. I remember first meeting Garrett in the casual dining room when he was just a tiny little guy. It is so great to see them again, and to see how much he and Anna have grown! These two are a photographers dream, that is for sure.

Kaitlyn

Saturday afternoon, Kaitlyn, her cousin Archie and Grandma Julie came over to have some Christmas portraits taken, as well as a few 2nd Birthday images of Kaitlyn!! She is a beautiful young lady, and I love her little stuffed monkey Ooh Ooo.
