randon + rylan | oklahoma kid photographer

Monday, August 23rd, 2010

As promised here are some photos of the mini session I had with my nephews. I literally had 20 minutes to do these photos. I had just gotten home from my training to teach ZumbAtomic (if you are in the Princeton area, I will be teaching very soon. Details to come!!), hopped in the shower and we were about to grab dinner! Thankfully I have Randon (3.5 years old) wrapped around my finger and he was willing to dress in whatever I wanted, put on these fabulous non-character shoes, and allowed me to spike his hair! He is no longer that little kid from last June or even from April of this year. He was a very willing participate. Now Rylan is a different story. He is your typically 1.5 toddler and into everything and anything.

He was very proud of his shoes! He normally wears Toy Story or Spider-Man character shoes, but I did some sweet talking and he was totally willing to put these snazzy slip-ons with no socks on!

He brings a smile to my face every single day!

My mom and I got this outfit for Randon when he was around the same age and I knew I wanted to reuse the outfit for these (since it was the only thing that went with what Randon was wearing).

This happens a lot with this dude. He’s been walking for awhile now, but going down the hill in my parents backyard proves to be a challenge!

A close up of the shoes! He was standing on one of the many tables w/umbrellas in my parents backyard and he was “hidden” in the umbrella.

This was pretty much Rylan the entire time when trying to get a photo of the two of them together! Love the tongue and determination!!!

Thanks for looking at my sweet and adorable nephews!!

A slideshow of some of the photos from my trip back to Oklahoma. I have another post coming of a mini session I had with the boys!

Take notice of Conner the dog when out at the pool. He goes crazy when we are in the water! The boys are little fishes in the pool (and tan as can be!)
Randon fell in love with the iPad. He’s obsessed with Toy Story anything and I downloaded an app just for him. He thought it was the coolest thing ever. And boy kids are smart these days. He knew exactly how to get out of it and get back.
And there is proof I was around too!

anthony | oklahoma newborn photographer

Wednesday, August 18th, 2010

One of the reasons for my visit to Oklahoma last week was to cuddle and photograph Anthony with his adorable parents Megan and Jay. My husband Anthony and Jay have known each other since junior year of high school, then roomed together practically all 4 years of college (give or take a few months). They both have a mad passion for college football and have spent many Saturdays attending and watching OU football together (now it’s mad texting throughout the games!). Not long after Megan and Jay found out they were expecting a little boy, Anthony got word that they were going to be naming their son after him. It’s a huge honor and I’m so glad I was able to get some photos of him at two weeks.

Congratulations M & J on a beautiful little guy!

Megan loves turtles and has now passed along her turtle collection to their son.

Can’t forget about the first child, Zeke.

away for the week

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

I will be in Oklahoma from August 10th – 16th. My internet time will be limited as I’ll be soaking up rays by my parents pool, playing with our nephews, visiting the University of Oklahoma’s campus including my sorority alumni skit night, learning to teach ZUMBA to kids, snuggling and photographing baby Anthony and his beautiful parents, and a few other sessions. I will make a concerted effort to return emails and phone calls in a timely manner, but definitely by Tuesday August 17th.

If you are in Oklahoma and want a session, I still have two spots open while I’m there! Email me to get the details!

five years ago | princeton wedding photographer

Friday, June 11th, 2010

5 years ago at high noon Anthony and I got married at St. Mark the Evangelist in Norman, Oklahoma. It was definitely one of the happiest days of my life and looking back at these photos brings back a flood of memories and emotions. All the photos below are from digital cameras from friends and family – I cherish these more today than I ever thought I would.

Two of my favorite photos from the day with two of my favorite people – I still have them hanging in our bedroom to this day.

My brother Eric and I.

We had a reception right after the wedding in the church fellowship hall. THEN we had this awesome evening party at the University of Oklahoma’s football stadium. We were in the newly completed upper-deck and it was seriously the bomb! One of these days I’d love to have another party like that.

The following two photos (of Anthony + I dancing and Dad + I dancing) are still in our bedroom. They bring me endless joy.

My parents seriously know how to throw a party! No one was on the dance floor, so they got out there and boogied it right on down to YMCA. Now my dad wasn’t too coordinated and was throwing up all sorts of “letters” during the dance and I thought he’d have a heart attack out there, but it was a highlight of the entire day. People still talk about that dance. I also had to include a photo of my two brother-in-laws dancing. Man have they both changed since 2005!

Thanks for strolling down memory lane with me!
