It seems as though there are funny stories to tell at the end of most shoots, and Will’s puppy Sampson made sure that we would have plenty 🙂 Sampson is ALL puppy and full of energy, so it took a little work from all of us to get him to stay where we needed him. At one point Sampson and I were nose to nose and I was whispering to him to ‘calm down’ – and instead of really listening he just licked my nose. haha! Despite Sampson bolting at one point and giving us all heart attack, the overall shoot was a huge success and we had fun along the way.

Part of the fun on a shoot is walking around finding great spots and great light. It is also a great way for us all to chat and get to know each other better…oh and stay warm when it is chilly outside. Please enjoy a handful of photos and the slideshow just below them. All the very best to you in the future Will. I really enjoyed spending the afternoon with you and your family.

Thanks for stopping by!

I LOVE doing Senior shoots and I want my Seniors to LOVE their shoot 🙂 Wow that is a lot of S’s in that sentence. Jenine and I started out at our first location to only find that there were about 20 wasp nests right where we wanted to move around!! I am not so good around anything that stings so it was surprising that I just didn’t say “let’s go to another spot”. BUT thank goodness we didn’t because it turned out to be the perfect location AND those wasps left us alone…taunted us a bit, but didn’t sting. Whew.
While shooting, I noticed a perfect 1950-something Ford pickup truck and went to ask if we could shoot around it but not touch. Well the owner was nice enough to not only let us shoot next to it, but drove it to the place we were shooting. So cool! Once we finished with the first location we took a short walk to the next spot to only find that there were people all around the train tracks. I asked the police officer what was going on and he said that BMW was revealing their new X3 and a train would be rolling in at any moment. So we just HAD to stick around for that which made for some great shots!
What a perfectly fun day full of surprises…including me falling while backing into a hole. Yepper…never a dull moment. Thank you Jenine for a great day 🙂

Thank you for stopping by!
