I am still laughing…. So, I asked Jessica to get down in the grass (really tall swampy grass) and like most girls, she got the heebie jeebies. But she was a trooper and did it. The funniest thing happened though! The roosters home was right behind her (like 2 feet away) and apparently it was time to cockadoodledo - I have never seen someone jump so high, so fast! Like I said, I am still laughing. Jessica thanks for such a fun shoot. You are such a beautiful girl! And, thanks for spreading Christina G love to all of your friends! You’re awesome!
xo, christina
love my new $3 chair from value village - love the greens and patterns!

Kasadee wins for bringing the most clothes to her session. So funny! It’s all good, we had fun!
Thanks Kassadee & Margie for a fun filled morning. xo, christina

i like my new flower chair

This was a fun session. Sky is beautiful. We had fun. Sky loves her horse very much and wanted some pics with him. And for the first time in my life I walked through a whole lotta horse (you know what) on a very hot day. In order to get to the pasture, we had to walk through the part where the horses live and and go to the bathroom. I am not even sure what that area is called. All I can say, she owes me one. wink, wink - jk xo, christina

I just had to share a few pics… I have been wanting to shoot in this field for awhile and well, we had the most perfect light and perfect senior! Allison is gorgeous and I just love, love my new chair.
I sure miss you blog. xo, christina

Alexis was one of my Jr Miss girls I photographed in the spring…. I had lots of fun with her and her mom, exploring and using some new locations! Just a quick sneak peek;) Can’t wait to work on the rest! xo, christina

I just love spring….the new grass, the new leaves, all of the new “green” and even the dandelions (just as long as their not in my yard:) - We had some crazy wind, but managed through it. Jessica is a beautiful girl!

meet felicia. I am officially giving her the name “giggles”. I cannot believe how many wonderful, candid, giggly pictures I was able to get. It was such a beautiful day to be outside! It was sure fun photographing her and her momma was such an awesome help! Thank you!!! I couldn’t wait to edit a few and blog a sneak peek…. Thanks for a super fun shoot!

I am so excited to be offering these to my seniors this year. This is one of the treasures that I found while at WPPI this year. These are even more beautiful in person!!! I love the uniqueness of them. If you are looking for a new alternative to a traditional book, Accordion Books are perfect. They measure 4″x8″ and fit up to 14 images with a magnetic closure.
Our Accordion Minis are the perfect presentation for your photographs. There are (10) 3″x3″ panels printed on pearl paper with a concealed magnetic closure.

I sure had a great laugh with these girls! A whole lotta fun… I am so excited for Corrine. She will be a senior next year. (we will be doing her senior pics sometime in late spring / early summer.) It is crazy because the next time after senior pics will be her wedding pics. LOL Lindy:) Time is flying! I have had the wonderful opportunity doing her pics for the last 3 years. Her Momma is my nail girl. She is the absolute BEST. No joke, no exageration! If you need your nails done, call me and I’ll give you her number.

Are they not the coolest?!>#% I wanna be young again!!!
I think I had a about 2 seconds to snap these ~ they were freezing and the sun was already down!
Sorry it took so long to get em to ya! xo kellie ~ hope you had a wonderful night!!!

I know I said the other day that I have to quit blogging for awhile… but just had to add these few for now. I have lots to blog. I also wanted to thank all of my clients who are waiting for proofs or orders…for being so patient!!!!thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart =) This is seriously the craziest time of year for me. Working like non stop =)
I just loved her beautiful red dress…. she is also so beautiful! we also had lots of fun! one quick sneak peek…
dance…………….like no one is watching.

the perfect keepsake for every senior! [3] 10×10’s in a beautiful black leather tri-fold folio. can be displayed as is or kept in box as keepsake.
Just choose up to 9 of your fave pics from your session.

Nicole and her mom came all the way from Wenatchee to have her senior photos done. That just makes me feel so special!!! It was crazy, we had to reschedule 2 times because of our crazy thunderstorm weather in July/August. Just a few minutes after we began shooting, the wind picked up out of nowhere (I think we were all thinking, OH my…what are we gonna do =o her hair was blowing all over the place) But, then it seemed to settle down and every now and then would get a beautiful breeze flowing throw her hair perfectly!!! It was such a pleasure hanging out w/ you two! Thanks so much for choosing me to photograph your beautiful daughter! I should have your gallery up this week…so sorry for the delay. I’ll let you know when it is ready =)

Well, I have been under the weather (like a big black cloud!) this last week - Haven’t been able to get out of bed or walk for most of the week. I had a back injury a few years ago that has been really giving me some problems lately.  I started back to physical therapy this week. I had the most pain I have ever had in my life a few days ago, but I am happy to say (and praising God for this! very thankful for all of the prayers!) that I am starting to feel better!!! Wahoo! Still gotta take it easy, one day at a time =) I have been ordered to not sit at my computer this whole week, so I would be in big trouble if my phs therapist saw me today!
So anyhow, I was able to get another session proofed, and here are a few sneak peeks… This CDA senior and her mom were so sweet! I hope you love your pics =)

ok…we seriously have a {rockstar} here!  Jillian was part of a group of girls that I photographed like 4 years ago…my first “paid” photo shoot! and now she’s all grown up!
We were in the middle of doing her senior photo shoot recently and just thought it would be fun for her to actually play the guitar while I snapped a few…and decided to video a little - And she started singing!!! She totally blew me away! (I thought she was just going to play her guitar a little) Wow! I loved it =) Doing everything that I could to not move the camera, holding back my tears! I am so proud of her! Ok, Jillian - if you get a record deal (which I believe you will =) I want to create the photo of you for your record!!!
Check out some of the video here…be sure to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the blog and click stop on the music so you can hear her video =)

PLEASE SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM OF THE BLOG AND CLICK STOP ON THE MUSIC BEFORE YOU PRESS PLAY ON JILLIAN’S VIDEO, THX
