We were supposed to be in Forest Park yesterday but we got moved due to all of the marathon events and ended up in Tower Grove Park. Sierra and Eric own Kangaroo Kids really cool children’s and maternity resale shop where my wife meets other mom’s every Thursday. The kids did so good putting up with having their picture taken. Here’s a few I wanted to share…

You wouldn’t believe how long it took to get that shot of Novalie.

*as an update to my “one picture a day” challenge, I’m no longer doing to put day _ in the title, but I’ll still be posting at least one a day.

Short quick portrait sessions are a lot of fun and you never know what you’re going to get That’s actually one of the main things that I love photography. Even if I somehow became a robot and did the exact same thing with two different subjects they’d get different results and that’s a good thing. For a portrait to be truly great, not just good, it has to tell me something about the subject.

I hope to do another one of these by the end of the year, maybe for Christmas portraits. Sign up on my facebook or twitter notifications (link in top menu) if you want to be notified.

Just a quick few shots from a portrait session I did recently. Melissa and James are married but thought it was time to do some couple portraits. I loved that they brought their scooter along for some pictures. These were taken on Main St. in St. Charles.

It was a beautiful day to be taking pictures. It helps to have a cute subject. Hope you all enjoy these pictures.
