katie’s headshots | princeton commercial photographer

Kim — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 14:00:35 +0000

What happens when you put together a PhD spouse who is a photographer with a PhD student who needs photos – you get laughter and fun! Katie is working on her PhD at Princeton Seminary and is frequently asked to speak at youth conferences and the like and needed some professional photos for brochures, web, etc. Here is a small sampling of this free-spirited, beautiful lady!

If you or someone you know needs headshots, I do offer them. Email me for booking and details.

out of the office

Kim — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 12:00:27 +0000

I will be out of the office from June 28th – July 5th. My internet time will be limited as I’ll be hanging out on the beach! When I get back I will respond to emails and phone calls. Come back to the blog though as I’ll hopefully have some fun photos of our adventures in Florida including my cousin’s wedding.

abby + scott | princeton couples photographer

Kim — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 12:30:20 +0000

When was the last time professional photos have been taking of you and your significant other? For me (and for most!) it was our wedding day 5 years ago. I challenge each of my readers to find a photographer and get photos of you and your hubby/boyfriend/wife/girlfriend at this time in your life. Even those who have children – you should have special photos of the two of you sans kids.

For the month of July and August, if you book a couples session (session must be before October 1, 2010), you will receive two complimentary 3×3 mini accordion albums ($200 value) (view sample here) If you are interested in booking a session, email me for all the details.

Some photos of Abby + Scott from our adventures around downtown Princeton, who are celebrating two years of marriage this year.

Hello fierceness!!!

Two years of marriage has agreed very well with these two!

Can you two seriously be any more perfect?!?!?! Working the camera like a pro!

Last photo from our evening together on the longest day of the year! Love the sun peeking between the building and trees.

I spent Tuesday morning at Wild Child Yoga hanging out with some fabulous moms and dads who were practicing yoga with their babies. Wild Child Yoga recently opened in the Princeton Shopping Center off Harrison Street and is offering yoga to new moms, toddlers, children, and prenatal/postnatal women. Visit their website for details on classes, pricing, and instructors. Justine and her entire staff are very knowledgeable about the practice of yoga and will guide you and your children along the way.

five on friday | princeton family photographer

Kim — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 12:00:54 +0000

1. How on earth is it June already? Seriously this year is flying by!

2. I thought I was going to get a reprieve to catch up on shows from this past spring but summer tv has already come upon us. Anthony and I have are slowly making our way from the beginning on Mad Men and The Wire (which is no longer on, but we still like it!). I’m hoping that by July when the latest Mad Men starts that we’ll be all caught! We’re excited about Last Comic Standing and Royal Pains! What are some of your favorite shows?

3. Anthony and I joined a CSA (Griggstown Quail Farm) and our first pick up was this week. We got some yummy greens including bok choy, turnip greens, and lots of different lettuces. We’re gonna do a real Southern dinner of fried chicken, creamed greens and more this weekend. (side note: I have to thank Holly for pointing us in the direction of Griggstown. We wanted to join a CSA but missed out on many of the places because we got in late. Thankfully they still had a spot and we are excited to support local agriculture!)

4. BOOKING UPDATE: I have two sessions open in June and a few in July. Book your family session today as these dates will fill up fast.

5. Next week Anthony and I are celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary. I’ve been doing some reminiscing on the photos and man do they have me all emotional. Check back next Friday for a post all about our wedding!

day in the life | princeton family photographer

Kim — Sat, 22 May 2010 16:17:59 +0000

Yesterday I woke up thinking how I wanted to document a day in my life – and I did it with my iphone. All photos are processed with the ShakeItPhoto app. I’m blessed that I was able to sleep in yesterday as it was my “Saturday” considering today I’m photographing the Seminary’s Commencement service. Can’t forget the generic Zyrtec that saves Anthony and I daily from allergies. Jammed out to the Glee Vol 3. Deluxe Version while running. Played a little Pac-Man on google (Pac-Man is celebrating 30 years). Edited some photos from a lecture. Took advantage of the sun beaming on our patio. Made a bomb-diggity chicken dinner. Used some fresh parsley from my patio garden on fresh corn. Only emptied the dishwasher once (oops!). Watched a few episodes of Mad Men Season 2 with Anthony. And lastly I got caught up on my Professional Photographers Magazine. I had 4 issues including January to read!

I challenge each and every one of you to do something like this. Truly document a day in your life. You won’t regret it when looking back to the mundane things you do daily. I also offer a package titled “day in the life” that documents your family’s day from sun up to sun down. Contact me for more details.

day at the farmer’s market | princeton family photographer

Kim — Tue, 11 May 2010 12:45:20 +0000

I love the farmer’s market and even more so now that I have read Animal, Vegetable Miracle, Eating Animals and watching Food Inc. Anthony likes to joke that I am now his hippy wife. I’m alright with that if that means I can make a difference. The Trenton Farmer’s Market is now open 6 days a week and is next door to Halo Farm. Love local antibiotic-free/hormone free milk, eggs, and ice cream. On my recent trip, I was able to snag some parsley, basil and rosemary. Most of the stores were closed so I will be going back in the coming weeks to get more items. A few photos of the market!

I had such a great time at this family session last week. The weather couldn’t have been better and look at these gorgeous people! Mr. J wasn’t a huge fan of the grass on his feet – a different texture that he wasn’t so sure about. Mike and Sonja enjoy your little sneak peek!

Absolutely LOVE his chubby cheeks!

misty’s baby shower | princeton event photographer

Kim — Mon, 10 May 2010 12:45:13 +0000

Right after we moved to Princeton I had a gorgeous maternity session with this momma-to-be x2. It seriously is still one of my favorite maternity sessions – the light that evening was beautiful! Misty and Brian are about to welcome baby boy #2 this summer. I am so jealous that their entire family is going back to Oklahoma for the entire summer – how I dream to spend my summers back there!

All the yummy details – I so wish I would have won that rosemary plant. Looks much better than the one I snagged at the farmer’s market the other day. One of the hostesses, Kelly, made the famous Bakerella Cupcake Pops. She did a much better job than any attempt I’ve made. Mad props to you Kelly!
