The VanDyke Family

We had scheduled this session for an early Friday morning and according to the weather channel it did not look like we had the cooperation of good weather. We played it by ear up till the last minute, and ended up with a gorgeous morning and great lighting. It did not even start to sprinkle till we were done. I have to say that Henry is one happy baby and was all smiles this morning. Thank you for letting me spend some time with your family and capture these moments for you. Here is your sneak peak.





Impromptu Family Session :)

I was doing some test shots for a friend and since the whole family was in the same place we got some quick family shots as well. I had to share just a couple as who could resist with such wonderful subjects. Test shots were never so much fun :)

Wardrobe Wednesday

     Wardrobe Wednesday was an idea put together by these amazing photographers: Jennifer Minor, Erica May, Kelly Valeri, Lindsay Horn, Morgan Dawson, Shannon Dodge, Stephanie Reeder, and Rebecca Keeling.

     I have loved looking at the installments each week and when asked to be a guest contributer was nervous and excited. Make sure to check back in the coming weeks for more exciting installments!


As a guest contributer this week I decided to put together some outfits that would work for a family session, but that could also be paired up to use in a sibling shoot, as a couple, or any other combinations as well. I started with the necklace which is not the normal place for me to start, but when you find a piece you love this just goes to show you can start anywhere. The colors in the necklace are beautiful and give a lot of a range for the other pieces. For shooting just the couple take out the necklace for more of a focus on the couple and the muted colors in a few shots as well. When the whole family is together the necklace is not the center because of the colors in the girls dress. For the men I stayed very casual for ease and versatility. Thank you to all the amazing photographers who are main contributers to Wardrobe Wednesday for allowing me to put something together this week.

Sincerely, Jennifer Sebby

Kristin

     This session came about when I was looking for a Senior to photograph and a friend of mine suggested it to the young lady who babysits for her. I had never met Kristin before, but new right away that we were going to have a great time together. She is quite the young lady and has a wonderful and exciting future ahead of her, her smile is so natural and beautiful! I think the only time she didn't have a smile on her face was when I asked her not to for a second, lol. Here are some shots from that evening, I hope you enjoy them. Please feel free to comment :)
