Kennedy (& Carlene)

Posted in family portraits | portraits

Is that a supermodel pose or what? The other day I met up with my friend Carlene and her daughter Kennedy. Kennedy didn’t want her photos taken but I snapped a few anyways. For the “posed” photo above I asked Kennedy to show me her angry face. Too cute!

Here are some candids:




Mother & daughter:
And in case you are wondering… Yes, they dress this cute all the time! Once I’m big time, I’m hiring Carlene as my stylist.
Thanks, Carlene, it was fun. Looking forward to hanging out with you again, but maybe next time we should try for at least 45 minutes. What’ you say? :)

High School Senior. Aleisha. Gorgeous.

Posted in portraits | senior photos

Cristi Owen

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE photographing high school seniors and Aleisha made me love it even more! On Aleisha’s questionnaire she told me she wanted a little of everything for her photos “soft, graceful, edgy, trendy, fun”. Sooo, we went to work and did just that. We had a blast and I love every photo, so it was hard to choose just a few for the blog. For those of you who watch Stylista,  Ashley was on the losing team yesterday because she was unable to edit her photos down to just a few for the final layout. Big Mistake! So I tried to keep that in mind today, but I couldn’t help it. I guess I’m on the losing team tonight.















Thanks Aleisha! Can we do it again?

Very Thankful!

Posted in my life

Cristi Owen

Thanksgiving day was certainly a day to be thankful for. We spent it at my parents’ home and just did what we know how to do best: ate, laughed, watched movies, and played.

My husband’s youngest brother and grandma joined us this year. Brett flew in from North Dakota and Grandma Pat is in AZ for the winter:




I have the best family and I’m soo thankful for it!
