Oh my goodness!  I am SO far behind on blogging sneak peeks from recent sessions.  The good news is that we have been blessed to be so busy at the studio between Senior Sessions and Families getting Christmas pics which is a beautiful thing.  I will try to catch up and post more over the next few days. 

 We are fast approaching our cut off for the end of the year.  Our last date for sessions for the year will be December 1st unless you have a newborn.  We will definitely do our best to get your newborn in if you call right away after birth and we are able to get them in during the first two weeks of life. 

Please keep in mind that we do close the studio for the month January in order to spend time with family, travel to some conferences,  and to regroup/plan  for the New Year.  We will be scheduling our New Special for Senior Update Sessions soon.  These are going to be SOOOO fun!  We can’t wait to fill you in.   Stay tuned for our special Package Pricing on those.  We will also be scheduling for February sessions starting in the next few weeks so be sure to call soon if you would like on the wait list for February.

  Lots of new products have come to the studio  including acrylics, metal murals, storybook albums, and metal prints.  Give us a call at the studio if you would like to stop in and see samples.  The new Acrylics and Metal Prints are absolutely incredible!

Have an amazing day!

I have been MIA lately and seriously neglecting the blog lately.  My apologies in advance as it will probably get worse.  The studio is ramping up for our crazy Senior season.  In the midst of our high school seniors I get the frequent opportunity to photograph our stunning newborn families.

This mom and dad were so in love with Baby Gavin and each other as you can see in the images.  I had a great time photographing them and was able to feed my maternal itch by spending several hours with Sweet Gavin.  Life is getting easier by the day as my three little ones grow and become more self-sufficient all the time.  However,  once in a while I want another little one to snuggle.  Then I snap back into reality and remember how those days are done and I get to move into the next stage of the growing years which is quite exciting.

Sylvia and Ryan, thank you for spending your day with us at the studio and hopefully you are pleased with what was captured as a result.  You were both so great to work with.  We will see you soon.

Have a great day!

I am kind of sharing these images a bit after the fact since I already posted Baby Jack’s Newborn Pictures  a little over a month ago.  I had to though because I adore them and this family.  She was a beautiful pregnant mommy and as you can see from these images their love for each other and excitement for this baby is quite obvious. 

Just look at how Jeremy looks at Kate.  That is how every man should look at the women sacrificing of herself, her sleep, her figure,  her every waking thought and  her memory (or was it just me who seemed to forget everything?)  for 9 months and beyond to bless them with the amazing  gift of a child. 

Kate is also a graphic designer who is starting to do a few things for NKP Studio on the side as she continues her great graphic design work for tons of other business in this area and beyond. 

I also love that her mom came to be a part of the session.  I do not think I have ever had someone do that in their maternity session before and it was really cool to see them really make this a family event.  As someone who lost her mom way before I should have, I only wish I had thought to do this.  Again,  it shows the importance of documenting our families,  our children, our parents  and  our grandparents. 

A little insight to Kate’s mom and what I found out after Kate’s maternity session regarding why it was so very important to them to have her be a part of the session.  Over the past several months she has been fighting for her life and trying to overcome Breast Cancer.  She has had a double mastectomy and is now fighting her way through chemotherapy.  Her cancer was found from an annual mammogram on both sides.  K & J’s Maternity photos were taken before her mom’s chemo started and the newborn photos were taken 1 week after her first round of chemo.  Her Journey will not be an easy one but after meeting and working with her,  I know she will not let it keep her down.  She is doing awesome and is a perfect example of how you can fight, endure and SURVIVE this. 

It was truly a pleasure working with every single one of them. 

XOXO,
