The Winner’s Return

Filed under Family,Family Photography,Family Portraiture Tags: — • Written by Daniel @ 6:13 am

A few months back, I ran a little viewer’s choice contest called “The Baker’s Dozen.” I presented photos from a number of clients and asked for you to decide the winning photo. In the end, the mighty Madison was the victor!

The winning client received a free photo session along with a canvas print. It was a pleasure to meet again with the young Madison for her private session. It is always amazing to me to see the giant changes, made so plainly evident in photographs, as children grow up. Have a look at the contest winning photo, then take a look at these:

Rachael and Robert wanted to update their family photos since their wedding a couple years back. So we joined them and their two dogs, Annie and Charlie at the lovely USC Horseshoe for a family photo session. In spite of the August heat, and plenty of hungry mosquitoes everyone had a great time. And with a beautiful couple like this it would take a lot more than that to ruin the fun of the day.

Here are just a few from our time together.

Madison’s 6 Month Moment

A little over six months ago we first met Madison in my Maternity shoot with Harry & Kristen. And she made her photo debut just a couple of weeks later.

We finally got together again last weekend for her 6 month Family Portrait session. What a wonderful young lady and family to spend an afternoon with!

Just a peek at some of the photos of the day.

Gavin the Great

It’s been just a tad over 6 months since you met Gavin in his newborn photos. And just a couple of weeks before that, Chad and Angie did their maternity photos with me. Time literally blows by. That gap between when I see the newborn and when I shoot the 6 month photos is far larger than it sounds.

Look back at the New Born photos, then look at a couple of shots from the day.

Avery’s Arrival

Filed under Family,Maternity Photography,Newborn • Written by Daniel @ 5:23 am

Last month you saw some shots from a maternity session – Awaiting Avery. Since that time the world has been blessed with a very happy and healthy Avery who arrived just a couple of days after that session.

When you’ve got a model like this, you just can’t go wrong!


Keeping an eye on the subject of the photos is extremely important as demonstrated by my personal favorite of the day – the “I’m Number ONE!” shot below. One frame only. The next second she was looking away.
