Last year was so fun and creative with a snowy mountain shoot that when Stephanie called to schedule the photo session this year we wondered how will we beat last year's; it was just so great.<div>Well, I believe we did it! It is not like this year's scenery was more spectacular, a truly wonderful photo comes down to the people in the image and their family dynamic. This family is fun and they enjoy each other and that is visible in their photos. </div><div>Thanks for the great shoot! Happy New Year!</div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7171/6603649657_c0b515b246_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7024/6603651737_760afb0d10_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7169/6603649531_db2864db42_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7033/6603651399_25f254c721_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7167/6603649857_1bdcbe366d_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7155/6603649441_35e662466d_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7029/6603650005_5ea3923d83_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7167/6603650123_767ed29c77_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7156/6603650301_cc2491e2c1_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7153/6603650461_44d5a26cd3_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7148/6603650587_e7648d7b5c_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7153/6603651033_f2eb94e32e_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7004/6603651213_4e245650a3_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7148/6603651565_d55524d53d_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7017/6603650739_66d1a7a142_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-4861123847612880880?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-46258585086041656652011-11-29T21:38:00.001-08:002011-11-29T22:28:16.852-08:00My family says "The sweetest little boy I know" in a sing song voice to Marcus all the time and he loves it and knows it is true.

The autumn sun was shining, but it was not too harsh, and there were flowers in the garden while fall colors peaked out of the leafy trees. I had a beautiful H.S. senior, Regan, to photograph. She was so easy to work with and did all the silly things I asked her to do, like touch her ear! Regan and I started out the photo session with the piano. I told her to just play a song while I took some in-motion shots, and I was amazed at how talented she was. Oh, I could have listened for hours and been happy! Then we went out into the sun and took photos of the whole lovely family together at the park. Thanks for a beautiful photo shoot, you are an inspiring family!<div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6105/6310317691_71b55438c4_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6117/6310316685_791edbab37_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6034/6310837882_e3ecbeb9d7_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6059/6310316787_0d123b9454_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6116/6310837998_1ccd36ec4a_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6041/6310838078_ba436e2734_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6035/6310838156_958f38778d_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6223/6310838986_cdd5cb1816_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6239/6310838822_867b8dfda6_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6049/6310317553_3b69cce158_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6060/6310317915_900028389a_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6054/6310317861_132dfa5f6f_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6034/6310839212_6c9a9343f2_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6109/6310317471_ddfb64e02d_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6114/6310838584_231c5e1b31_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6057/6310317031_2bf098355e_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6216/6310317103_ae9fc95db8_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6223/6310317179_6621189fb8_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6039/6310317333_1a2a379b7c_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6102/6310317251_553cb34c06_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-7654854795362726683?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-57106252530106311262011-10-30T15:02:00.000-07:002011-10-30T15:25:55.981-07:00It is now way past summer, but I just had to put these up! The rose garden was so beautiful during this shoot and this family is one of my favorite families ever. Good reasons, right?<div>This little photo shoot was more of a random happening, starting with Talya really wanting to see the Rose Gardens since they were in full bloom, everyone being dressed up so nicely, and I having my camera.

I have seen poverty in India, prostitution in Amsterdam, and discrimination in Thailand. I have felt sorrow for the living conditions and the inaccessibility to education that many children experience in many countries. In Cambodia I visited non-government organizations like Hagar, International Justice Mission, Daughters of Cambodia, and World Vision, and learned about their work to improve the lives of people who are forgotten, ignored, or shunned. The Steps of Justice team worked with some of the same people we learned so much about which deeply impacted me in understanding the reality others face everyday. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6209/6147465251_7eb81410bf_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6177/6147460257_8293606462_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6203/6148009900_11c59ce8c6_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6181/6148009364_0f5ccac7c7_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6210/6148015150_045eb4aaa6_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6158/6147461347_9ce8607203_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6076/6147462161_62f0c47863_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6178/6147461815_8bbc770673_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%">The Khmer people experienced genocide from 1975 to 1979 during which a third of the population was killed under the rule of the Khmer Rouge. The government took away all private ownership and scattered city dwellers to the country in effort to reeducate the people as farmers. Anyone who was a threat to this plan was killed, including opposing government parties or a person just wearing glasses. After this oppressive government fell due to Vietnamese invasion, conflict continued with Vietnam until 1991. Cambodia lost a generation of people who would now be the grandparents and elders of communities and more importantly a generation of educated leaders to teach the youth. With this loss, the Khmer people are far behind neighboring countries in education and social development. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6159/6148008334_8ed7506aa5_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6078/6147458919_0315944ca8_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6168/6148008540_dfabd0252a_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6083/6147458723_fa83f972ab_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6209/6148008130_66b1b4a098_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6205/6148011260_c60da1783a_b.jpg" /></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%">Families struggle in poverty. Many believe they must take their children out of school in order to work and earn money, creating a cycle of uneducated workers unable to escape poverty. Other families sell their oldest daughter into prostitution so that the younger children have a chance to go to school. Cambodia has a well-known saying about men and women, “Men are like gold, you can wash them clean. But women are like a cloth, once dirty they are ruined.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>When a mother sells her daughter into prostitution she knows she is stripping her daughter of dignity and respect. Hagar, IJM, and Daughters of Cambodia are NGOs that restore dignity and life to girls by giving them an opportunity to make fair wages in respectable factories or restaurants. In the midst of the sorrow there is hope with Christian based NGOs that serve and bring light to women and young men.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6155/6147459905_2a9fb68d10_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6063/6148015332_0a2a963f5d_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6082/6147459783_d8277b954f_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6162/6148013166_8cf6ed3f9c_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6162/6147462673_b667d1ca2c_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6177/6147462809_03c0a5866d_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6194/6148012836_d51c8d520f_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6193/6148012938_5e6bb46268_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6167/6148010422_20cd8822eb_b.jpg" /></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6074/6148011010_06592714da_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6061/6148010850_f485b93ce3_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6203/6147460957_f1ed96b983_b.jpg" /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in;line-height:200%">The two weeks in Cambodia were completely filled with stories and experiences that I will not forget.

The photo session is full of dancing about and silliness to get the babies to laugh, which then causes a chain reaction of the whole group laughing at how cute their babies are. These two baby cousins, Tobin and James started out unsure about smiling for the camera, but by the end they were so full of smiles and giggles that I took way too many pictures of these boys because they were just so cute!

Cara and I did just this the other day, wandering around the more wilderness-like places in Manito Park. The lighting was perfect for portraits, not too bright and just a bit of glow to add a dynamic to the setting. After our shooting frenzy we enjoyed a tasty dinner at Lindamans in the warm setting sunshine. Thanks, Cara for a fun evening!<div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5312/5893217302_659e1fdec5_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6051/5893217230_9f8014dcf8_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6059/5892648921_c8c02419c9_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6050/5892648711_8de67bff2d_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5305/5892649121_41d10ffa60_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6023/5893216972_9e6db3826f_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5272/5892649211_44191ea78e_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5156/5892648685_f1153b002d_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6046/5892648987_f916c6cb94_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6035/5893217202_68e0195d8c_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5318/5892648767_15f7a2b20f_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6007/5893217030_410a2c5c77_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-9194763419408254757?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-65191623204851265672011-06-22T14:38:00.000-07:002011-06-22T22:29:17.699-07:00The Johnson clan all came together to celebrate our grandpa/dad/ great-grandpa for Father's Day on Sunday. Grandpa has been recovering from a hip surgery and last weekend he was able to make it home during the day while the family was in town. It was such a fun time talking and laughing, eating too much good food, and putting together a 1000 piece puzzle! Almost all the family was there making it the biggest gathering we have had in quite a few years. <div>We lined up in the front yard for our traditional family picture, and this year it was the most fun ever! I set up my tripod and gave Marcus (the little one) the shutter remote control. Marcus clicking the shutter and taking our pictures was so happy, making all of us laugh so much! One day that boy is going to be a great photographer ;)</div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5036/5862021975_8d753345ab_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5078/5862022051_53c4ab3d32_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5271/5862574118_b5d19080ef_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5229/5862022173_81d366da15_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3108/5862022239_949f5b6590_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2698/5862022433_7a9f2ec497_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3017/5862574278_bc01db781d_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3085/5862022365_17f43e06bf_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-6519162320485126567?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-23342288361836564222011-06-13T12:48:00.000-07:002011-06-13T13:07:35.943-07:00This August 7-20 I am going to Cambodia with <a href="http://stepsofjustice.org">Steps of Justice</a>! I am going as a team photographer. This will be my second time in Cambodia and Steps of Justice has used my past photos in prayer journals, articles, and online resources. I am so excited for this trip and to use my photography to bless others!<br /><div>Last Sunday I did a little photo shoot at my church, New Community, as a fund raiser for my tip. It was a really fun time and a beautiful sunny day. The 5-min. shoots were in the back of the church near the river under leafy trees. Here are some shots of my fabulous small group; they are an amazing encouragement to me!

And these sisters were really sweet and great, especially since we made a last minute change because of the weather! It was such a beautiful day until right before our sister shoot a thunder storm came roaring through and ruined our planned outdoor photos. So we met at Rockwood Bakery instead and had a coffee shoot. It was so nice to meet Beth's sisters who came into town for Bloomsday!! She talks about how wonderful her sisters are and what a great support they are to her and I was so happy to photograph them all together.

The ceremony started at 6:30, giving the bride, Johanna, and the groom, Brian a long day getting ready and preparing for the event. Once the ceremony was over Johanna was a light of sparkling eyes and smiles while Brian looked at his lovely bride with joy and pride! They were both radiant with happiness from being a married couple. It was a joyous time with lots of laughs, from stories told in the Bridal room, to kilts, to cutting the cake with a dagger. This group was wonderful!

So I decided to bring my twin-lens reflex to his senior session and get some fun shots looking through that old glass with my digital. It was a great shoot, and Ben added some neat photo ideas also. Thanks for a fun shoot, Ben and have an awesome rest of your senior year!!<div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5258/5460277206_595872bd56_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5059/5459668879_981666ee51_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5135/5460277072_be042cbbd4_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5015/5459669009_c779049ecf_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5296/5460277258_a4b6d5080e_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5176/5459720307_16a213964a_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5257/5459669183_ea72fb10cc_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5059/5459669291_d2a3c6d2df_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5216/5459669331_70c75f8620_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5293/5459669375_f4939337f8_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-7295730927345603862?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-72839934983412215682011-02-04T16:56:00.001-08:002011-02-04T17:07:28.734-08:00Last Saturday my little nephew had a play date with some good friends who were in town. Now, kids at two years old like to play a lot, but not necessarily with each other... Especially since it was the first time Halle and Marcus met, they were a little shy of each other, but that did not keep them from having lots of fun! Halle has the sweetest little smile and loved jumping on the trampoline. Marcus loved playing on the swing set and was a little scared of that unstable trampoline. They both were just so cute. In the end Marcus gave Halle a goodbye hug and while riding home in the car said, "Halle, friend."<div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5260/5416780891_15b3dddb5a_b.jpg" id="yui_3_3_0_1_1296867812796134" /></div><div>Oh, can't forget little Lucas!

The day after a big snow storm the Ferch family braved the bitter cold, clear, sunny day for sparkly snow pictures. This family has been in my life for ten years, and I would not be who I am today without them. They are a huge blessing, so fun and full of life!

But the day we went out to take family portraits, he had no desire to look at the camera, he barely even looked in the same direction of the camera. "Look at the camera. Oh, look over here, look at the camera!" I said this over and over, but I was just a whisper compared to all the exciting adventures calling out to Marcus. He was having too much fun playing and running and looking at new interesting things. Marcus has joy that flows out of him which makes any day, so good! Thanks for a happy shoot! <div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5126/5284338082_9a4c769f36_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5201/5283740113_2a51a7cb76_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5167/5283741219_da3e5724a6_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5283/5284338248_7b5dff72d2_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5169/5283741141_4b0d93cbed_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5281/5284338308_06191951e4_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5005/5283740505_273a2dcf7b_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5243/5284339164_e414fa2996_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5008/5284338458_4693cfc24d_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5090/5283740563_0f2a0cb37b_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5085/5283740649_e739464f48_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5086/5284338762_03a187671a_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5242/5284338360_da15446bcb_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5123/5284338838_c92015b430_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5086/5283740841_8f1d689fa8_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5290/5283740921_e18a256657_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5047/5284339086_261d0ceb3e_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-4339247420175779694?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-37568120662177125802010-12-16T10:49:00.001-08:002010-12-16T11:18:18.519-08:00Cara and I joined a photo contest and this is the last day to vote. We want to win some books from <a href="http://www.facebook.com/author.charles.martin">Charles Martin</a> and need a few more votes to win! You can help by going to my <a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1661551772">facebook</a> and clicking "like" on the photo of me reading a book while walking on railroad tracks. It would be fun to win, and easy for you to help with only one click!!

It is a beautiful sight that does not last long. We drove up to Mt. Spokane to find snow covered trees for the Tibbett's family portrait, and it was well worth the drive! The photos look great with all the trees and the family sacrificed their coats to get these wonderful photos. I was all bundled up and had a great time shooting in the snow;) Beauty knows no pain. They did great, and the kids had lots of fun sliding around on the ice. The two brothers wanted to pelt their sister, or anyone with a snowball, but that was quickly over-ruled by their parents!

As you can tell from past blogs, I go crazy over babies... He has sparkling wide eyes that remind me of a kitten, and he is aware and alert looking at his surroundings. Meaghan and Josh are such wonderful parents who watch Tobin's movements with love and joy. It was a cold day, and we had to go fast taking these pictures! But it all turned out great!

He is full of laughter, and gibber gabber, and squeals of happiness. The squeals could go down a notch or two, though... He loves cars and trucks! At Manito Park we sat on a bench for at least 20 minutes watching a tractor lift leaves into a truck. Marcus would have sat there for the rest of the afternoon if he could, but they took a break. "Bye bye, vroom vroom," he said, after much reluctance. Thanks for a wonderful nephew, Alexandria and Michael!<div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4084/5177943148_8b17e90a32_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1336/5177340013_e72702796c_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1308/5177943316_1db9e90e92_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1311/5177340227_0db148b779_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4083/5177943370_228366db53_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1405/5177943520_b702e01380_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1378/5177943642_cbc66d5f7c_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1375/5177943982_6551acb2cf_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1297/5177340919_99d649d5d3_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1021/5177340535_b97677e7a2_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1304/5177340621_3a43411192_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1349/5177340701_14cc1e091c_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4110/5177943916_af52a2f3dc_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1033/5177944176_d206dd3620_b.jpg" /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-8152048451168305925?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-65848520081505570352010-10-30T14:38:00.001-07:002010-10-30T15:01:18.481-07:00Last Sunday was such a rainy day, but for a few hours in the afternoon the clouds broke up to let a splash of sun shine through. There was lovely natural light when Luke and his daughter Ella got their pictures taken together. The park was covered in hues of green, yellow and red which made a beautiful setting. Ella is a sweet girl with lots of fun energy and liked to "ham up" for the camera! She loved playing around with her dad at the park.

I have been wanting to go there all summer, but never made the time to actually do it. Then my friend Jane, who is from Iowa, said, "I am so close to Glacier Park, it would be sad to go home and never see it." <div>"That would be so sad!" I said, and right there we made a plan to see it the coming weekend. Everything planned out great, so off we went on a beautiful adventure into Montana, seeing shining lakes, purple mountains, and big blues skies. </div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1370/5116875894_58002a5f25_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1436/5116274511_fc96291b95_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1215/5116876014_8e018f5ac9_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1419/5116274719_a2d40ff5a9_b.jpg" /></div><div>It was so cold and dark when we left for our hike at 8:30 am, until the sun peaked over the mountains thawing out the shadows, making a warm, lovely day!</div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1314/5116274839_b8a0fe0d0c_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4130/5116277135_fbe535b235_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1327/5116876390_0a305608e5_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1173/5116275163_868c4eb680_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1323/5116877172_c85aaf8077_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1075/5116877260_716569e3bc_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1395/5116275933_fd96a7e047_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1254/5116877416_585803c476_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1185/5116877534_50d6860d54_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1150/5116877666_8c56c07f9e_b.jpg" /></div><div>The sun made the fire-wore trees glow white looking like porcupine quills.</div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1113/5116276555_c54c34f196_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1122/5116877788_f8268bf1f0_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4107/5116878060_52f1cfe239_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1312/5116276889_6f1d7bd91d_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4090/5116878426_1d34efb48c_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-332134640531095177?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-29763488229859513922010-10-13T18:20:00.000-07:002010-10-13T18:52:27.641-07:00It was a beautiful day with bright sun and a wonderful fall warmth in the air. But there was one problem, the bride did not have her dress! It was left at the house an hour and a half away and the wedding started in two hours... Jamie held her composure so well while she waited for her dress to arrive! And when it finally did, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and she quickly dressed. Her bridesmaids were in there to help with the last little accessories and then she was ready. Jamie looked radiant and Logan looked so proud at the sight of his lovely bride.<div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4012/5079474199_efc54790c9_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4038/5079473245_966bd19af1_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4057/5079473515_f723dcf9f0_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4091/5080067814_8260f9f12b_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4040/5079473319_efb13013c8_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4124/5080067746_77a44b4f9c_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4152/5080068038_2bc4ee89c9_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4153/5080067922_3d219fed57_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4113/5080067990_31a36326e8_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4144/5080068752_b2210bd866_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4131/5080068870_953bea1772_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4012/5080068938_4dd486603e_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4112/5079473749_f24cbf5652_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4020/5079473925_37208e91d1_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4027/5080068352_e18be3e636_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4113/5080068174_7279c8e4c8_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4056/5079474059_aa0524ecc0_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4044/5080068458_590008c5db_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4092/5080069062_18f3d31268_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4107/5079474613_c3124695e2_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4031/5079474321_a18dd98e26_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4063/5080068812_d6d6af821b_b.jpg" /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-2976348822985951392?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-1187950158226684002010-09-20T14:15:00.000-07:002010-09-20T14:31:11.465-07:00The beginning of September I went and visited my wonderful friend and photography mentor, Pranee.

I love how the brick and peeling paint of the old buildings added to the style of the Wiersma family. The photos show the two boys' playful personalities and love for adventure. Maddie the oldest is a sweet, beautiful girl, who watches out for the two younger, energetic brothers. And the whole family has a strong connection and love for each other that is evident in these images.<div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4113/4951878121_61d0821f32_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4126/4952468452_75dd4bbb21_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4131/4951877641_abb23dab1e_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4151/4952469916_c38fdca294_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4086/4952470554_b423b3b285_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4098/4952471030_7feca93949_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4121/4952049657_aef3ef705b_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4078/4952049227_ebcc8f2551_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4151/4951915055_6d6cd13f05_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4083/4952504672_5f40387984_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4103/4952507010_0df171e260_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4104/4951916645_1336224ca9_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4090/4951914221_8cb416b4c1_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4128/4951917327_63d97579f1_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-4931250832252713297?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-77766300498276363842010-08-21T19:11:00.000-07:002010-08-21T19:28:31.380-07:00What a fun boy who has so much energy and loves to search and discovery things in the outdoors!

She is a creative girl! And Deedee was such a little super model, walking like she was on the runway. Damion, the little guy, was full of smiles and the whole family was really great to work with.

She used juicing to lose the weight in which all the other weight loss programs failed to give lasting and changing results. She looks so beautiful and happy in all these images, it was a fun day to see her dressed up, done up, and made over!<div>During the magazine shoot I was able to watch and talk with photographer <a href="http://deandavis.com">Dean Davis</a>. He is a commercial photographer who incorporates artificial light with the natural light of an area to create lovely images. I always love learning from sought-after photographers watching them at shoots while working with posing and lighting. </div><div>After the main shoot, I took couple portraits of Carol and her husband Arnold. They are a friendly couple who are so joyful and show kindness to all they meet.

It is an open landscape where I can see hills turn into mountains and mountains fade into blue in the distance. </div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4016/4691400124_2c7ea39ff9_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4062/4691400008_6bc0ce7f9f_b.jpg" /><br /><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4048/4690768047_c65d344323_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4048/4690768159_d8af937c41_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4015/4691400478_4b358bf921_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4029/4691400620_0478edb246_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4065/4691400730_b5e98dd5b6_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4045/4691400986_1f5d2b7904_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4024/4691401080_7c19a93a46_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4059/4691399654_dee897f77f_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1289/4691401272_cc96335780_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4071/4691401754_5228837917_b.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-7972754582866234655?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-79700728659556060782010-05-17T10:44:00.000-07:002010-05-18T10:34:06.696-07:00We had a fun mini session last week at one of my favorite cool, old buildings. Worn-down sings, rusty metal, and red brick all go so well together. Especially with Mack's personality. He is a young guy from Alaska, who worked on fishing boats during the summer while in High School. He is a tough dude, to be able to do that hard work! Mack said it was just like The Deadliest Catch on T.V., rough weather and long hours. He is an easy-going guy and did any weird thing I asked him to, like jumping into the air or over a rail. Thanks, Mack! Have a great summer!<div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4048/4616159078_0568277961_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4067/4615544989_7124fdbd87_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4036/4615545145_a9c44c6184_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3144/4619344324_7a2f8718cd_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4052/4616159716_12dcde4a28_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3387/4615545533_87c76aef8a_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-7970072865955606078?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-57298917851351092192010-05-03T11:03:00.000-07:002010-05-03T11:20:55.198-07:00Meaghan and Josh are expecting their first baby!

It was just me and little Missy ( I was watching their dog also). It was the beginning of the week on a spring day, no one was around and the lake was peaceful and lovely. The water rippled with the breeze and the sun was warm for the time of year.

He goes on adventures down slides and up stairs, and is constantly on the move discovering wonders at the park toys;)<div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2791/4451510005_4d1922020f_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2736/4452283986_4c328d1a0d_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4024/4451510365_98a2815e4e_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4067/4452284370_0d6d599b27_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2791/4452335920_03928c8c47_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2774/4452284808_4f9165a1e3_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4027/4452285246_7580a07f90_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2707/4451511577_e99ab05c7c_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2715/4451511713_4e53f94aaf_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4027/4451511991_e553aa0001_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2749/4451512259_796faa88be_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2782/4451509645_4c63dd5e5e_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4069/4452283634_f9fe00ede1_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4050/4451508605_7c89592d17_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4009/4451508749_2750305af8_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4055/4451508913_b9a975e546_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4021/4452282854_9903c1567c_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4046/4451509341_3790c1c091_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4044/4452283332_9efbfdb1a5_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-8535987117444158271?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-46164228221928189202010-03-20T18:00:00.000-07:002010-03-21T10:10:57.304-07:00Two weeks ago I photographed a Nepali wedding ceremony! The bride, Sita, was beautiful, dressed in a sari with golden accents and embroidery, and her hands were decorated with henna. Many women were wrapped in lovely saris in shades of red, the traditional wedding color.<div>Back in Nepal a wedding celebration would go all day with the ceremony, eating great curry and roti, and with lots of dancing! The bride and groom would wear carnation leis and carnations would be used as decorations all around for the wedding.</div><div>But here in Spokane life is different for these Bhutanese refugees. So the family and friends of Yadu and Sita came together for a morning ceremony. This wedding day was different from past weddings in Nepal, but the tradition is the same and the food was just as delicious!</div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4017/4450528267_a05977d8a4_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4001/4451300126_509c758af4_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4049/4450528527_bcd3380eec_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4061/4451300432_8a2569850a_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4039/4451300574_f3d2f817cb_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2736/4450528989_86e8ab0ebc_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2687/4450529133_0021fd3f76_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4003/4450529247_e6016e97cf_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2764/4451301196_af3d1f0fd7_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4008/4450529599_abc61a7f04_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4020/4450529781_d47d25591a_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2724/4450529927_f3133d0dcc_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2700/4451301762_1df9fabd2c_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4004/4450530249_ddc13c58c6_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4009/4450530469_aceb8f8f3e_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4048/4451302398_cfa8acf90e_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-4616422822192818920?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-36594730941248144272010-03-16T10:04:00.000-07:002010-03-16T10:09:11.787-07:00<img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4045/4438736544_debd4712a2_o.jpg" /><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div>This includes portrait collections and photos through VK photography!</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-3659473094124814427?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-88444953077926056642010-03-06T14:46:00.000-08:002010-03-06T15:15:26.314-08:00I took way too many pictures of this baby! But I couldn't help it, he is just way to cute! I had too much fun photographing Landon with his mom and dad and I had way too much fun editing them afterward. Landon has so many fun expressions. At one point during the photo shoot Landon was smiling at his dad, he was dazzled and would not take his eyes off of him. The whole family was so great to photograph!

We talk all the time about how to make our photography better and about new things we are learning and trying. Pranee is such an inspiration to me! So the other day, while the sun was setting I tried out a few of the exposure techniques we talked about. What do you think, Pranee?<br />Of course, I used my "cutest in the world" baby nephew as my subject. And some fun dogs that I am taking care of.<br /><br /><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4054/4386553748_67d36fb5fb_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4045/4386553984_4eee7ff929_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4022/4385789981_9bd07a02d4_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2764/4386554150_31fdc6d4b0_o.jpg" /><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2773/4386554220_7e4b482c0b_o.jpg" /><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4072/4385790179_21512f01e1_o.jpg" /><br /><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2690/4385790257_01eb4deca8_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2798/4385789805_0d2432cae2_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4051/4385789701_6752b4e289_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2719/4386554442_dca7195910_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4053/4386554488_441f645a0e_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2747/4385790439_9846640331_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4045/4386554590_44a88cd5dc_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4051/4385790553_b853bdbbe9_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2799/4386554736_59fdaec01e_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4043/4385790719_88e428bb67_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4028/4385790789_fd152c401d_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-1368137344031398482?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-6009584160789224562010-02-17T10:05:00.000-08:002010-02-17T10:41:24.551-08:00All weekend it rained, but we were determined to go to the Sound.

Spokane, or any mountain really and see the lovely winter sights and snow. My good friend Kristen came home, so off on an adventure we went, with her parents. And good thing her Dad drove, or else we would have slid right off the mountain! Our goal was to snow-shoe, but when we got to our destination there was only an inch of snow. So it turned into a hike, and the inch of snow eventually turned into two feet of snow! But it was warm with a beautiful sight of fog gliding down the tall hills.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2756/4333224813_853d23e03d_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2729/4333966566_12e1b1f78e_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2743/4333966630_d0ed33dc2d_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2796/4333224955_69e27284ab_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2706/4333966732_d193efcb84_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2740/4333966786_1edecb5d77_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2716/4333225089_2c0888121f_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2766/4333966886_1c2b896295_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2734/4333966922_965d1322b1_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-4872709299565777222?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-54444032113756460232010-02-05T18:33:00.000-08:002010-02-05T18:41:07.257-08:00Logan and Marcus are little friends who have spent much time together during their little lives. They look at each other and poke each other and giggle and smile together. They also cry together, feeling their fellow baby's pain. Logan loves to play with Marcus's toys and right when Marcus notices, that particular toy becomes Marcus's favorite... those scenarios have started off a few crying sessions...<div>They are both cute, good baby boys! And they are so fun to photograph, because Logan and Marcus both love to look at the camera with wonder!</div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4061/4333962752_5d5068fa48_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4064/4333221115_7654e13dec_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2579/4333962860_e5f16e92fe_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2733/4333962918_1ecb64ea32_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4071/4333221261_5e45e1e4ff_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2516/4333962994_252e2a217c_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4013/4333963036_4f0aa6c8ba_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4068/4333221439_bc7e9df475_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4024/4333963126_cf52612d9f_o.jpg" /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-5444403211375646023?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-43079233685352274782010-01-30T11:03:00.000-08:002010-01-30T11:20:00.805-08:00Joy, excitement, relief, and thankfulness filled all of our hearts when we saw Andrew in the airport, home from Iraq!

The Tibbetts are full of energy, laughter and fun. We spent an hour in the studio capturing the dynamic family; the kids goofing around and laughing, the parent's love, and their unity together. The kids are very imaginative, in one image they are all winning a race, and what a riot that photo turned out to be! I laughed so hard when I first looked at it! Afterward, they were all very happy about the session and could not wait to see the results.

He will not smile for much, but when he does, it is like sunshine across his face. <div>Pranee is amazing at balancing being a photographer and being an attentive mother.

Elisabeth and James share a love that radiates in their faces. Elisabeth loves James' smile and he always makes her laugh. It was a really fun day to be a part of, bless you both in your life together!<div><br /><div><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2511/3846986391_d453efeb13_o.jpg" /></div><div><br /></div><div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:Helvetica, serif;font-size:-webkit-xxx-large;"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3423/3847723822_b1f23fe0cb_b.jpg" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:Helvetica, serif;font-size:-webkit-xxx-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:Georgia, serif;font-size:18px;"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3550/3847776462_cc09efd4c4_o.jpg" /></span></span></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-6042482657417397417?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210965177123748978.post-46568002621597889182009-06-17T17:24:00.000-07:002009-09-01T21:23:29.838-07:00<div style="text-align: left;">All dressed up for the dance recital!</div><div style="text-align: left;">Jennifer brought her daughters by the studio for a fun photo shoot before their end of the year dance recital.

I could talk forever about how cute this baby is, but I will let you see photos instead.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2317/3531451247_dcda60dfe7_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2343/3532267092_aa4d81e1ef_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2270/3532266932_ec1124673c_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2086/3531450477_736f783998_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2216/3531450713_b39cde031e_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2305/3532266070_276bccf07a_o.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2205/3531450241_56d6c80aa7_o.jpg" /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7210965177123748978-3247470629721437075?l=vanessakayphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vanessa Kayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11815159313874389230noreply@blogger.com0
