Last month the boys outnumbered the girls – big time. So this post will be dedicated to all the cutie patootie little boys I photographed. Next week – it’s the girls turn!!!! So stay tuned!
A story of a little girl and her daddy –
This is Kali -
I have photographed Kali since she was a baby (3 years ago). During the first year I photographed her, I throughly enjoyed getting to know her, her mom, and her dad. Of course the bond between Mom and child is always strong – but what I also noticed was how much her Dad adored his little girl. He attended EVERY photo session (which is rare) and would dote on his adorable daughter the entire time. At each session he made sure to bring along one of his hats for her to be photographed in (in addition to Texas longhorn paraphenalia).
These are some of the images I captured of Kali with her Dad’s hats over the last few years:
Tragically, Kali’s dad was killed in a motorcycle accident last August.
So, when Kali showed up for her 3 year session this week and in one of her bags was Dad’s hat – I found myself in tears!!!! He would have been there if he could!
What a gift we (as photographers) are given - to preserve memories of our loved ones. Memories and photographs may be all you have left of someone some day – so don’t put off being photographed because you feel like you need to loose 10 more pounds or because you ‘hate having your picture taken’. Someday, that photograph may be vital to the memory that your loved one has of you!
In memory of Phillip Kunz:
Winter Wonderland – Jefferson City Photographer
This beautiful snow inspired me to take the camera out on a little field trip. Ava volunteered to model for me a bit – but mainly I just wanted to take pictures of the magnificent scenery that God has blessed us with!!!! enjoy
