The weekend before Thanksgiving was hecitc....BUT great!!!  I went out toward Rio Vista to a BEAUTIFUL piece of property and shot some REALLY cute family and kid portraits.  The Pickett family is the sweetest family I have shot in a while.  They were open to many ideas and just wanted to have a great time with their portraits.  Their beautiful daughter Jade, was such a great subject to photograph.  She was ALL smiles!!! We got some amazing shots and I just enjoyed this session a bunch!!! Thank you Jamie, Danny and sweeet baby Jade, for choosing Up-Close Photography!!!

Well Thanksgiving is upon us.....I have started doing portraits for Christmas gifts.  I shot some cute portraits of Kenzie and her parents.  They came out here and we shot in the back pasture.  She was a natural in front of the camera and just smiled ALL THE TIME!!! That's the best type of subject!!! Trista I had a blast shooting your family's portraits.  Kenzie was the cutest little girl!!!

Brinley's 1yr portraits

I think I took the cutest birthday portraits ever.....Brinley worked so good for the camera.  We did her birthday portraits down in the pasture again and they turned out amazing.  I worked with different layering in Adobe and just pretty much played around with the portraits and I think the end result is just amazing!!! Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!!! Thank you so much Brandi for having me do her portraits, she's a doll!!!

Leah & Benji's Maternity pics

Well on Thursday, I met up with some of most dearest friends, who are having a little boy......He's going to be such a cutie!!! We met down in the back pasture and just started having fun with the camera!!! I truly love the portraits that came out.  We did a whole bunch with the reflectors and then working with the sun.

I then took them to a barn that's falling down and we got some wonderful portraits in front of the tin and then the old barn wood.  I love being able to go outdoors and get some amazing photos.

Leah and Benji I just wanted to thank y'all for letting me do your maternity pics!!!!
