Foto Fashion Friday


Today's Foto Fashion is for a family with two tween boys for an in studio and urban location session. I love the bold aqua with the dark chocolate and denim accents. The subtle stripes and little punch of plaid add interest without distracting from the portrait. A great collection for an end of summer portrait with the cool colors and summer fabrics....before we give in to earth tones and sweaters.

Stud Muffins

These two handsome little devils are Weston & Ty. They are all boy through and through and definitly keep me on my toes! They are so handsome and funny. I love the first one where they are hugging but of course, as with all boys, a hug always turns into a wrestling match! I have been photographing them both since they were babies and they are growing into quite the little young men. Here are a few of my favs...

Enjoy....

Foto Fashion Friday


Today is a variety for a 1 or 2 year old little girl with some natural tones and a punch of color for an awesome variety sure to please your girly side. The khaki and tan tones would be great for a natural outdoor setting and the bold colors for some studio or urban shots. I love, love, love the hot pink petty skirt and beany hat with giant peony!!! I would also do the pink chucks with the petty skirt and hat with some big pink baloons! Too cute!

New Fav

Okay.. this is my new favorite family photo. Any of you who know little Tara know that she has a BIG personality in a little bitty body. I love how she is trying to be sooooo big and tall just like mom and dad. We had a deal that we would blow bubbles outside if she sat still and it was so windy (hence the natural wind-blown look) that the bubbles were blowing by themselves!

Cute..Cute..Cute!

Foto Fashion Friday

okay..it's not Friday but I should get a little credit for posting on a Sunday. Today I did the wardrobe for a more formal portrait that could be done in an urban outdoor or indoor session for a family of 4 with 2 little girls. The black, white and grey theme is classic and timeless and will look great with any decor. The sleek, straight lines add a contemporary edge to the portrait and the dots on the little girls dresses in the second outfits add a little playfulness. I love this combo!

Big Man Blaiton

Well I can't believe it but little mister Blaiton is 2 years old already! He rocked out with his Harley for his 2nd birthday pictures and we both loved every minute of it (he almost ran me over!). And, of course, no session would be complete without his beautiful big sisters, Aubry and Shaylee! Great session, great pics, adorable kids...what more do ya need! Here are a few of my favs...
Enjoy!!!

Foto Fashion Friday

I often get asked the question 'what should we wear for our session?' and of course the answer is always different based on each unique family or child sooooo....I decided to start Foto Fashion Friday here on the blog to help stir your creative side. Each Friday (hopefully) I will post a collection of outfits pulled off the internet to give you ideas for your clothing choices. Please realize that not all suggestions will fit all families but we will try to go with different styles (casual, dressy, western, in-doorsy, outdoorsy, etc.) to give a good variety. So for the first Foto Fashion Friday I outfitted a casual, young famiy with one boy and one girl for casual outdoor session. I hope this gets your creative juices flowing ( plus it gives me an excuse to shop online without spending any money:) ) Enjoy!
