i really liked how this family was comfy just being their cute selves in front of the camera, (deliberately) oblivious to my presence for the most part.
that's not coffee in the little guy's cup, btw =).
all cc welcomed and appreciated!


















oops - overshaprened... i'll fix that.this was my stab at a non-traditional christmas card.









just playin'...








p.s. Sooo, I've been in hiding b/c I'm so behind with emails, pp, and life in general that it's embarassing. i'm slowly catching up, but I owe a couple osp'ers an email (you know who you are, mr k especially)... I hope you'll pretty please forgive my aloofness!?


oh bummer. this posted under "links" and the formatting went crazy... geeze. anyone know how to change that? i need more sleep.

These are beautiful photos! I love your logo too

HOLY COWABUNGA!!!!! Those are AWESOME!!!!!!! I esp. love the "flying" images. WOWOWOWOWOWOW!

These are great!! I love the black and white Christmas card one!!!

Those are so cute! Off Topic: Can you ask them what kind of dog that is? I have one almost just like it. I got him from the pound and no one can tell me what kind of pooch he is!

Wow! These are fabulous!! Great job!

Yummy work!!

I love these, all of them. Looks like a real family having a fun day.

I love the christmas card

THANKS sooo much guys!!!
Jessica, I think she's all dalmation... but she's camera shy and not very photogenic, so maybe it's hard to tell. Almost everytime I pointed my camera toward her, she'd go wide-eyed, sulk, and put her ears back... almost like a child's "if i must" cheese grin. silly doggie.

wow, these are really wonderful!!! I love love the christmas one. Super cute kids.... I mean... look at those EYES!!!

Very nice work!
Cory

These are SO sweet and beautiful! Every single group shot is full of looove and emotion...the light and posing in the Christmas card image is amazing! what a cute family!

Love #4 and the christmas card is really cool! These are fantastic!

great job! I love the Christmas card!

Thanks for the info... But I don't think my poochie is a dalmation. here's photo

OK- well Miss K - you know I love your work- these are awesome! As always.

Jess-
That looks very much like my dog- we adopted him from the pound and we were told he was blue tick hound and english setter! I will have to look for a picture of him to post- they almost look like brothers.

I have to update this...my kids came over even the 18 month old and said "Boedi!" that is our dogs name. Then my 4 year old said, he looks like a Dalmation!

I looooove the Christmas card image!! They're all freakin' adorable. Did you know, Miss Kimberly Bee, that you're my favorite kid/family shooter? I loooove your stuff! Makes me wanna stop shooting weddings

What a shot!

Thanks a bunch, everyone!
I'm always this close to wimping out on posting here, so I'm totally flattered by the sweet comments.

Sarah, HUH!?! You're makin' me blush girl! I think I better share my little faved web/blog list of kid and family shooters with you. But, geesh thaaank you !!



So I'm curious if Tawnya figured out the breed, Jess?
Back in HS I worked at a dog "pet resort" as a pro pooper-scooper and playtime buddy (fancy, eh?). I used to know every breed and I'm thinking that she's right?? Inquiring minds... =)

Nice pictures - but I have not figured out why adults like to throw kids up in the air.

So precious!

Thanks John and Jill!

John- it's like a mini-roller coaster! ...i think it's the kids who like the parents to throw them up in the air. By take three daddy was exhausted and little guy was giddy clapping for more =).

Kimberly I LOVE your work. I stumbled across your blog a few months ago and wish I would have known about you when we lived in AZ. We moved back to San Diego in April.
When we make it back to visit AZ I would love to meet up with you. Maybe you could get my Aiden to smile

I really like the images. Awesome job!
