September got away from me, but look what I did!!

Sara and Gage  225 Contest Winners!!

Thank you Sara and Gage for a fun morning!! Hope that you love your photos!!!

 

How did I let September sneak by me with out posting a blog?!?!  I guess I have just been that busy.  Shooting seniors, contest winners, and secret birthday presents for a loved one that is far away from his family.... also making the very long drive back and forth to Kansas to see my parents and grandma!! 

Thank you everyone for making September amazing and busy for me, I am looking foward to October and all the upcoming holidays!  I will be running specials for the holidays, so be sure to go over and "like" www.facebook.com/katinareistphotography so that you don't miss them!

 

Wanna see what I did in September?  Ofcourse you do!! That's why you are here!!

Meet Chris, Campbell County High School Senior! He is an artist and told me he was very nervous about his shoot.  You can not tell from him photos tho!

This is Jace, Campbell County High School senior.  He is envolved in football and wrestling, a very active young man!! He was alot of fun, and I loved how envolved his mom was with his shoot!!

Here's Jace again, with his cousin, and senior classmate, Morgan.  They did parts of their senior session together for grandma!!

Morgan was a hoot!  He fixed his hair more then any girl I've ever shot, and I thought it was hard to keep little kids attention when there was playground equipment and water around, Morgan gave them a run for their money!

Sara and Gage were contest winners. They got their shoot at no charge.  She won a gift certifate for a family session. 

And a secret boudior session for a husband far away from home! Can't wait to hear about the look on his face!!

Last but not least at all, it's offical!! I am a photographer for Shoots For a Cure!! So excited to be involved in this, can't even begin to tell you.  Go to their website to learn more about SFAC.

Senior Spokes Model

Everyone knows I had been looking for a senior spokes model all summer long... I had chatted with a few mom's and even an aunt... but nothing seemed to be happening with anybody to my major frustration! Then I got a message from Jenny, telling me about her daughter, Brittini.

 

 

I learned that Brittini drove a race car, had been in track, and was gonna be super picky about her pictures!!  (Aren't all girls, teenage and otherwise?!)  Soon after I asked Brittini to be my spokes model. 

The first time Brittini and I met to was sign contracts, I met Jenny, who I found out that day was actually step mom, Jason, her dad, and Sally. Sally is Brittini's race car, or to quote her

"She's my baby..."

 

 

I would like to thank Brittini for rocking her shoot like the star she is!!!

 

Have an amazing senior year Brittini!!!

 

And if you are from the Gillette, Wy area, head out to the Gillette Thunder SpeedWay to watch Brittini race!!!

A month of Chaos!!

Sorry it has been so long since I have blogged, it's been a month of chaos.  I married the love of my life on June 9 and a few days later was living in Gillette, Wyoming.  So between last minute wedding planning, packing, moving and now unpacking to start our life together here in Wyoming, the month got away from me.

Below are some of our wedding photos by our amazing photographer.  I totally recommend her to anyone shopping for a wedding photographer, or photographer for anything.  Look her up on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Ciara-Crandall-Photography/21231083549836 You won't regret it!!

I also wanted to share a photo or two of the wonderful little boy, Nick, that I did a shoot with right before I got married and moved. He just turned one, he loves his monkeys and mommy!!
