Happy Birthday, baby | Twelve Months of Jasper | Alabama family photography

March 28, 2010

Yesterday, my (Stephanie) son, Jasper, turns one year old. You might remember his three month and six month sessions, and if so, probably also remember that we’re definitely more interested in the quirkier side of family photography! So we met up with Ashley and went to two places–a plant nursery and a park–and had a lovely afternoon, if I do say so myself.

Being a mother is an experience that has profoundly shaped and changed me. I absolutely love my role as a mom, and love my little man to bits. SO: thank you to everyone who has, and does, love him deeply.

Ashley took several absolutely wonderful photos of us, and I wanted to share two that I think are particularly sweet:



I (Ashley) wanted to say a little something about our Smallest White Rabbit:

Jasper, watching you grow and learn over these past 365 days has been nothing short phenomenal. You greet the days with wonder and excitement and allow everyone you come in contact with a glimpse of that wonderment. I’m thrilled to be able to know you Kalois and even more ecstatic to become closer as we all grow as friends, and as a business. So congrats Jasper on your first year of life on this planet and I hope you continue to shine on like the happy sunshiney sweet smiley special Smoosh that you are! And to all of the Kalois – thanks for always being so inspirational! xoxo

Family: Getting Cozy with the Cooks | Huntsville Family Photography

March 26, 2010

We were already excited after Natalie contacted us about having photos of her son made–I am (Stephanie) a mother, and Ashley loves babies and children alike, so we always relish the family sessions we are lucky enough to shoot. However, we were not fully prepared for the whirlwind of love and joy that is Hugh, aka “Hootie”, and his family–these three (and four, we can’t forget the dog!) are a riot!

Hugh is definitely a charmer–he not only called us both pretty, but is the first client to ever present us with flowers during a session!

“For Mommy…”

“…and Daddy…”

“…and you!”

Hair By Noel | Portrait Photography | Huntsville, Alabama

March 25, 2010

Noel has been doing my hair (Ashley) for a long time. In fact, when she moved to Chicago for a bit I was at a loss! Thankfully she returned to Huntsville – not only because my of my hair, but also because she is an amazing soul, and it’s been wonderful getting to know her more and more. There had been a lot of talk between us of working together to showcase her talents and provide her with a stunning portfolio…so it was thrilling to shoot this session! With help from friends who modeled, we spent the Saturday photographing the lovely stylings (hair and makeup) of Noel! If you are interested in more info, or want to contact Noel, you can reach her at Salon Allure here in Huntsville.

Once everyone was ready, we headed out for the shoot! Noel wanted a rustic/nature feel to the shoot, so we went to one of Huntsville’s best places to achieve that look – Burritt Museum on the Mountain.

Noel made friends with one of the residents of Burritt!

Wedding: Karen + Daniel | Alabama wedding photography | Five hundred, twenty-five thousand, six hundred minutes..

March 24, 2010

Karen and Daniel! Where to begin?

First, if you remember, the two opted for a family-meets-engagement session that we shot in Big Spring Park a few months ago. As we said then, we knew going into this big day that Karen was going to be one of the most chill brides we’ve worked with, but I don’t think we anticipated just how relaxed she would be! While she definitely had the wedding-day jitters, complete with shaking hands, she also happily jammed to her Black Eyed Peas while getting ready, and had one request for her photos–”Give me something different!”

The wedding was at the Chestnut Grove Methodist Church in Gurley, Alabama–waaaaay out there! Luckily, with all of the love and excitement that the whole party experienced on the day, we had plenty to work with!

We edit each photo individually, and like to let the magic of the editing process unfold as we work through the session or wedding. I think Karen and Daniel’s wedding definitely displays this wonderfully–we love to provide our clients with a variety of photo styles that suit what’s happening in each moment. This also helps avoid any stagnation or repetition in shots and style!

Ashley and I BOTH cried during the ceremony! From the opening of “Seasons of Love” to the vow exchange, we were emotional wrecks. Karen and Daniel wrote their own vows, which moved us even more than we expected.

We love capturing the bride and groom right after the ceremony–look at the love!
