There are a lot of times I’m reminded how much I love photography. Today I took out my camera to document the purchase of our first live Christmas tree (which I love way more than I thought I would). I felt incredibly lucky that I even own a camera, and I get paid to use it! It’s like the guy who loves playing video games getting hired to test new video games. I love using a camera to get people excited about who they are and the way they look. My greatest compliment is when a client looks at their pictures and says, “Ah! I could be in a magazine!” I just think, “Of course you could! If you’ve ever thought you looked ugly in a picture in the past, chances are the person taking it didn’t know much about lighting or framing!” Magazines are full of images created by artists. And every celebrity that appears in magazines has a personal photo retoucher that retouches every single photo before it’s released. There’s no magic blood-type that puts a celebrity on some higher level of perfection. Images and video are just so prominent in media today that we’re only told about “famous” people by the artists who document them. Well, now I get to be people’s and families’ personal artist to show them and their close ones how unique and beautiful and wonderfully made they are. One person at a time, I get to shatter the facade that people in magazines are somehow more beautiful than us “normal” folk.
Anyway, that’s my rant for the day. Here’s Kayla! Speaking of could-be-in-a-magazine! We went all over to get a range of urban and nature senior pictures. Kayla, like the last post I made, is now at my alma mater too! Good luck to you Kayla!
(by the way, for those looking for braces removal in their senior pictures, we can do that!)

That’s right, we’re Birmingham photographers now! And it’s time to catch up on this year’s work! We did Josh’s senior pictures at UofM, my Alma Mater and the school he’s at now! He’s so comfortable and laid back. Good luck to you, bud! And go blue!

Our brother! We took Kenny out earlier this year for some “promo” stuff, but these are his REAL senior pictures. We had a really hard time picking out the pictures for the blog. He’s so handsome. :)
This was our second time heading out to Birmingham for a shoot, and we loved it again. There’s so much to shoot there! Not to mention Devin who’s a natural in front of the camera. And once she and Jordin started talking, there was no stopping them! They literally laughed and talked the entire time, which made for really fun pictures!
Here are some of our favorites:
Our second Lauren from Adams this year! This shoot had us a little scared as it rained all day. Then, just as we were about to have to reschedule, the sun came out and gave us the coolest pictures ever! We had a lot of fun playing with colors, since Lauren has amazing red hair that looks so cool with other colors.
On our way home, we watched an incredible sunset and managed to snap a few shots before it disappeared. Here are some of our favorites from the day:
Got a little behind during our move, but before we left, we got to meet Becky and take her downtown Rochester for her senior pictures. We had a lot of fun talking about high school theater, because Becky’s been doing shows with the Rochester Summer Music Theater program, where Jordin and I first started dating! Awww. :)
Becky was really comfortable in front of the camera, and had really cool scarves! They went with everything! Here’s a few of our favorites:
Caroline is the spunkiest girl we’ve shot. :) She’s always laughing and bouncing around (maybe because she runs seven days a week and is in better shape than Jordin and I combined). She’s not scared of rolling up her jeans either, which made it really fun when we saw cool shooting locations, because she’d go anywhere! Creeks, fields, prickers, you name it.
And she has the prettiest blue eyes in the world! Here are some of Jordin and I’s faves from the day:
