Kristin and Jay are two of the least serious people you could ever meet. I don’t think these two could take themselves too seriously if they tried! We are so looking forward to their wedding, we know it will be so indicative of their fun, outrageous personalities!

We braved the COLD weather Monday morning to photograph Brady with his family at Tom Brown Park. He was such a trooper in the cold weather, I really thought we would only have about 10 minutes to work with, but he was great for a full session!

www.LongsPhotography.comWhen I look at Sydney, I see Punky Brewster. (Yep, I’m a total 80’s kid!) She has such an amazing personality– she is sweet, funny, outgoing and kind– the kind of kid you hope yours will be! 
As always, I had a blast with Sydney and her mom and I think the images are stunning!
I love to be challenged. Its just a part of my personality and one of the major things I love about photography. Everytime I pick up the camera I try something new and challenge myself to produce better images.
I had a surprise challenge yesterday, though. I showed up at Tom Brown Park for Michael’s portrait session only to be greeted by a less than enthusiastic model. Michael was not feeling well and spent the first part of the session running and hiding from me. He actually burst into tears when I took a photo of him!
Not willing to give up, Micheal, his mom Sarah and I went on a walk on one of the trails. While Michael never really warmed up to the idea of having me photograph him, he did warm up to me. It was so obvious that Michael was not himself yesterday– underneath his adorable pout I could see what an amazing kid he is.
Michael actually did me a favor– he challenged me to create the images I wanted without being able to direct my subjects, without being able to choose the locations, backgrounds, etc. In other words, he really made me work for it! I love the results, as they are so true to how the afternoon was and I am sure they are images that his parents will smile about for years! 
At the end of the session Michael did give me a hug and thank me for playing. His mom later emailed me to let me know that Michael was disappointed I was not at dinner with them to photograph him! So, at least it wasn’t personal!
My favorite shot of the day:
This pose was all Kris– and I think its hilarious!
