After lots of planning, and replanning, we finally managed to get Katie and Travis’s engagement session underway.  Though the forecast called for rain last Thursday, the sun peaked through the clouds and we stayed dry at the Mission.  The Mission is such a beautiful setting for an engagement session!   Katie and Travis are such a sweet couple and the camera LOVES them!  Travis joined the military recently, just like his Dad did before his wedding, so we didn’t have much time to shoot the engagement session prior to the wedding (which is in March).    I love, love, love all the variety of each of their shots.  They both brought several outfits, which helped the overall look and feel of the shoot go from casual to seriously sassy!  I can’t wait for the wedding!  Enjoy!

Happy weekend!  Yesterday got away from me, so I am just blogging for Friday today!  One of my goals for 2011 was to add a little more personal information to “Clicking with Kristin”!  I am thinking that on Fridays, I will post something fun about my family, fashion, food or something else that is FABULOUS!

So anyway, on Wednesday I was going through our old archived files, and stumbled on several sessions of my kids from 7 or 8 years ago.  I was soo excited to see what each folder contained.  The first one I opened was this adorable session of my little ballerina and her sweet brother.  There are always things in the past that cause regret, but beautiful portrait sessions of my kids is one thing that I have done right from the very beginning.  Even when it wasn’t me taking the portraits, I always splurged on photography!  Going back though these sweet memories made my heart smile!  I know in all of the craziness of running my own company, I did something very right in taking the time to document my babies growing up!   Now that my daughter has the same shoe size as me, and that my son can look me directly in the eyes, I cherish these images even more.  In fact, my favorites are not the perfectly posed images, but the ones that truly show their personalities!  I love you babies!!!!!!!  Enjoy (I am sure for those of you who have been with us from the very beginning, you have lots of these beautiful images of your kids from the original studio on Moulton and La Paz!)

“I love this time of year because we get to do our fun Creative Sessions, which allows us to have a different kind of shoot with a theme.  The lighting, family and location for this creative session was so awesome, I love how the shots came out!  This beautiful family showed up on location with some great outfits!  They brought tons of awesome clothing, perfect for this whimsical setting.  I had such a great time on this shoot running after their little one and taking modeling shots of their beautiful boy.  The kids were truly a joy to be around and of course, as you can see, are just gorgeous!  Thank you so much for coming out and enjoying the morning with me!”  -Anna

One of my best gals brought this little cutie out to play last month in San Juan.  He was a perfect angel, and at less than two years old, he had already perfected the “Blue Steel”!   I just can’t get over his beautiful eyes.  I know Mama is never going to be able to say no to this little guy.  AND at the tender age of less than 2, he already has a modeling contract.  Enjoy!

Could you just die at his yummy lips??? Beautiful Smile!

These two beauties were so much fun to photograph!  They came ready with a suitcase full of fabulous frocks and a great attitude.  I love when good friends share a session.   Enjoy!

Can you believe her beautiful blue eyes!

What at beautiful smile!
They belong on the runway.
