Marnee Strege Maternity Shoot

My friend Marnee is expecting a baby girl in April.  She is a beautiful mom to a young lady and now will be blessed with another beautiful baby girl.  She did request no head shots so if you are wondering why her face is not in any pics, it is by request. Her tummy is so beautiful and all baby round.  It sure was a lot of fun to shoot her and the future little girl that will grace our presence in April. 

Very new born Baby Brett Steichen

My dear friend Abby had her beautiful baby boy.  I captured the moments of all the first's.  First holding of brand new baby boy in Dad's arms, both Grandma and Grandpa's arms, and other present family members.  It was such a beautiful time in their lives that they were willing to allow me there to capture the moments.  I can't wait to share these pics with her and her family.  Such an honor!

Anderson family 2011

Here are some photos from my first new born shoot with my good friend and her new addition to their family.  We got together to shoot one month old photos of baby Adrian. He was wide awake during the shoot but was a little trooper.  Did capture some great pics and had a blast editing.

Proud new Mommy!

We all got together for some photos for their Christmas card.  It was a challenge to shoot in yellow home lighting and trying to get baby and puppy to cooperate for some great pics.  It was a lot of fun, and Adrian sure has some great smiles and facial expressions.  What a little cutie!

Senior Pics with Colter

     

Colter is one of my good friends' son who is going to be graduating this coming May 2012.  He was so much fun to shoot, he is so photogenic.  He seems to be comfortable in front of the camera, he made a new photographers' job very easy. He inspired me as a photographer to want to take a lot more photos of many more subjects and events.  After editing the photos, I got to share the photos with my good friend, Colter's mom and the joy, tears and excitement was all worth it.  She was so emotional that her son is growing up and has turned out to be such a handsome young man.  What a joy for my very first photo shoot!
