International Paper's Christmas Party

I was asked to do pictures for International Papers employee Christmas party. I had a wonderful time watching all the children and the set up was amazing!!! They did a great job creating their old time Christmas town!

It's not the New Year yet

Ok it's not the New Year yet, so I feel ok to sneak in some Christmas pictures!!!! =)

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! Ours was great! I am ready for it to be over, I have everything taken down. I ended up doing a deep cleaning while the house was empty before I put my regular things back out. That made for a long day yesterday!!

These are a few of the children from International Papers employee Christmas party, I loved watching these children with Santa!!

This little baby was so cute with Santa! I couldn't resist getting lots of shots of her loving Santa!

This little boy is my absolute favorite!!! He sat there looking at Santa with the happiest scared look on his face. I think he sat there with the biggest smile in hopes that Santa wouldn't hurt him. I loved watching these little kids' expressions with Santa!!

A fun family!

This is Jan and her great looking family! I use to work with Jan years ago, so it was great to hook up with her again. She had an great set of models to work with! We had a very nice day to do pictures and a lot of fun subjects with great ideas. Here are just a few of the fun we captured.

Try not to pay attention to the color of the pictures too much... I am having technical difficulties with the program I run these pictures through to make them smaller. They look a lot different than they really are....... I'll fix that issue later.

Ok so first of all, I think the girl at her house is her daugher.... so I pose them with the girl as just one of the kids in the group and then later find out she is the wife to one of Jans boys......so I goofed on that half way through the shoot.... Although, I think this young lady fit right in like one of the kids, so hopefully that was all good =(

This was one of the boy's idea (to climb the tree) I heard it, and acted quickly to the comment in hopes they were serious... They were, and it turned out so awesome!!!!

We had lots of joking and fun, which made for a fun day!

I will be putting a big one of this in the studio!!!!!! Absolutely wonderful!!!

Shane

This is Shane, we did his outdoor pictures a few weeks ago. He didn't want any indoor pictures, but he didn't win that battle =) Glad you came out for your indoor pictures Shane!!!!

Nicci

This is Nicci, we had a beautiful day for pictures!!!! This had to be the easiest Senior I have done in a long time. It didn't take Nicci long to change and get ready for the next shoot. We did find out we were losing daylight quick!!! Thanks guys and it was great meeing you!!!

Miss Elenore

It took her a little while to warm up, but when she did she went straight for Amber (my daughter) I could not ask for a better helper than my daughter to help with with the little kids. They warm right up to here and we get some great personalities!!!

Elenore did a great job and we got some great pictures of her!!!! I wish I could show them all off on the blog!! Thanks guys for bringing her back to me for pictures, it was so great seeing her grow up!!!
