Beautiful Day, Beautiful Family

Today it's snowing and it is FREEZING cold outside. So I'm pulling out some warmer weather pictures in an attempt to remember that nice weather will return again soon. Shockingly these pictures of the beautiful Moore family were taken in early November. It was still beautiful out then and one of the last really nice days we had.



I just love this family. They all are so spunky and have so much personality. They are just a blast to work with and to know!



Even though they were a little bit hesitant I'm glad we got a picture of just Lori and Jaime together. So often parents hesitate on pictures alone without the kids. But I think it's important to always get at least a couple of the "couple" at each session. Too often the last time a couple had a portrait alone was at their wedding!



Seriously could these girls be any more adorable! They were such a blast and were willing to try anything I suggested.



I'm not sure if you have caught on yet but the Moore's are BIG KU fans. My kind of family! And I so love Avery's bright shoe strings. Takes me back to my childhood in the 80's. I'm not sure I could pull off the rainbow shoestrings now but everytime I look at this picture I really want to try it.



Thanks again to the Moore's for letting me photograph their beautiful family. I could take pictures of you all every day! So much fun!

Valentine's Day Mini Sessions

I've been getting quite a few inquires about Valentine's Day themed sessions. And since I like to keep my clients happy I will be offering a limited edition Valentine's Day mini session. Below you can see some information about the mini sessions. There are a limited number of spots so I do encourage you to contact me soon to schedule your time spot. I've got a fun Valentine's Day themed set in the works and some great ideas for wardrobe. This should be a blast for your little sweethearts!!!

Baby Brett

I had the opportunity to photograph Megan and Keith and some other members of their family a few years ago. And I've been able to photograph their family a few times since. But I was so excited to see Megan and Keith this round because they were bringing their adorable baby boy for his first portraits! Brett is such a sweet little boy! It was so much fun to photograph him.

It was cold the day we took these pictures! Like really cold. And Megan, Keith, and Brett were such good sports. I was hoping they wouldn't turn into the frostbite family. I believe their session may go down in history as the fastest outdoor portrait session of my life! We kept it moving so Brett wouldn't get to cold.

And it was so worth the rush because once we got Brett back in the studio he rewarded us with lots of smiles! Such a little sweetie!

While us adults were having a good time with the portrait session Brett didn't seem to impressed. I think we were boring him. But baby yawns are the cutest thing ever so I didn't take it personal.

Okay I take it back baby yawns aren't the cutest thing. I'm thinking the cutest thing has to be baby smiles that are so big your eyes disappear! Seriously that is stinking cute!!!

I love this picture! Megan looks so happy. She is such a fun person and a great mom. And the fun is just beginning for their family. I have a feeling Brett will keep them plenty busy and super happy!

Yes it's true this is the last picture of this adorable boy! Try not to be to upset. This little guy is taking part in one of the great baby plans Wagoner Photography offers. So you will get to see more pictures of him next month! And I can't wait to see his sweet face and his parents again soon!

Frames... Frames... Frames...

I love decorating my home with pictures. It's a bit of an addiction really. And the only thing I love more than a beautiful picture is a beautiful frame to showcase it in! When I stumbled across The Organic Bloom frames I knew I had to offer them to my clients. They are frames that I love and would proudly display in my own home. To be completely honest when I first saw them I thought they were too amazing NOT to share!

I placed my first order shortly before Christmas and these beautiful frames arrived on my doorstep yesterday. As I was tearing the box open you would have thought it was Christmas all over again. I was so darn excited. I thought I loved the frames when I saw them online but the pictures don't even do them justice. The colors are amazing and the craftsmanship is top of the line!

The best part about these frames is that they are totally designed by YOU! You pick the color you love, the frame you love, the size you want and I place the order. In a short time your gorgeous frame arrives. I call that picture perfect!!!
