Sometimes you have to plan while the flowers are a blooming!  And since I have no idea how long they are going to stay around, you may see lots of flowers in my sessions in the near future.  These gorgeous yellow blooms are the perfect backdrop to a fun, earthy, family photography session.  The Collins family dressed just right to blend in with the beautiful wild flowers, trees and other earthy elements.  Not to mention the fact that their kids are gorgeous…. even if Ryan thinks he can’t smile….. and I have pictures that prove he does have a great grin!  This family is near and dear to my heart, as I can totally relate with Sue and having a husband obsessed with the Eagles.  If you, like me, love the wild mustard, now is the perfect time to book a session.    Be sure to check out the slideshow at the end of the images for a little behind the scenes action!

One of my greatest joys is showing people how amazing they can look in a photograph, especially women.  In fact, I really love working with gals of all ages.  From the preteen that is just learning how to wear makeup and do their hair to helping create a fresh new look for Moms, I just really love making people feel beautiful.

So, I declare March Model Makeover month.  This is great session for high school seniors who want a fun, fashion inspired photography session and for Moms that want to give a gift to themselves and for anyone feeling like they want to reinvent themselves.  I have 20 spots available for a personalized photography session.  Each session includes professionally applied makeup, hair styling, a clothing consultant to help put three or four great looks together and a 90 minute fully directed photography session with me.  We will even throw in an 8×10 print for free.

After the session, we will present you with 40-50 fully edited photos that can go into an album or book, onto the wall or be made into one of a kind art pieces for you to enjoy for years to come.

Here is a look at one of my first session with the absolutely stunning Abby!  Enjoy!

I have already said this, but thank God for the rain!  It has been three years since I have seen the flower fields looking so beautiful.  Every photography session has been a treat and the Knuff kiddos were no exception.  These two were so darn cute and cooperative, they basically did whatever we asked of them.  Of course there was some silliness in between the requests to “hug your sister”, but that just added to the fun.  I am headed back today for another fun family session!  Here is a sneak peak of the Knuff session from last week.  Enjoy…

Thank goodness for the rain we have gotten so far this season.  It feels like forever since I have seen the beautiful yellow bloom of mustard flowers.  But, fortunately, last weekend was warm and sunny and there was mustard flowers as far as the eye could see!   Perfect for a family photography session, especially when this family traveled from Russia, Peru and Arizona just to get one beautiful, blended family portrait.

This is just a little sneak peek for the Lenzen family!  I can’t wait to share all of the great portraits from their session!
