Yesterday the B family meet here in Brookings for their first extended family portrait. Nikki has been a client before, you might remember her family in a field with a leather chair. Nikki follows the blog, knows me well and knows what I like to do. So I agreed to do her extended family and...
Erin our graphic designer finally found a time when we were both open to schedule her family photos. This was more of a mini session (more to come on this later) than my normal sessions as I don’t typically pose and I spend about 2-3 hours with my clients on my other sessions. This took...
And my second session yesterday – how did both of these families know it was going to be so beautiful out? Alysia brought the kids up for some images, goal the kids together. This isn’t so easy with a 2 year old. Tate had his own take on how things should go. But we got...
Heidi won a mini session a while ago and gave the session to her sister Lisa. So today she brought the kids of for a little photo time. They were so incredibly well behaved! Here they are.CA Ok if I was 13 this is the boy I would be chasing after. Isn’t he so cute....
Saturday I had the first wedding of the year of the fabulous Joey and Kyrsten. We started with some getting ready images in the church followed by their first meeting and some couple time. After formals we hung out until the ceremony, but I managed to pull Kyrsten aside for some lovely images of just...
I got another great note. From the fab Maria Rausch. She had all the best at her May wedding. And I saw her again at the Black Tie Bridal Show as her and Kris were models. So some of you may have seen her also. Anyway, I got a nice note from her. Cory Ann,...
The first completely finished home project. The wash room when we got here was a bit cramped, with old cabinets as the only storage. So we started by removing one set of cabinets so we could stack the washer and dryer. Then I ordered the shelving and selected the paint. When the shelving got here...
Yesterday Isabelle came over for her belated one-year portraits and we got to use the new house. I love both of these and the contrast between happy and sad. She is so cute in that if she gets upset her eyes and nose automatically turn red. On a side note Isabelle will be moving along...
Tuesday I traveled down to Sioux Falls to photograph some products for Leah at Envision Wedding Studio for her updated website. She opened up about a year ago and I was pleased to see someone in town offering some lovely custom fun invitations and accessiors to brides. She is a very talented graphic designer –...
Katie and Travis headed to Brookings while on Spring Break from college. We tried to find trees but the beautiful weather meant lots of melted snow and mushy ground. So we went urban instead. Around downtown Brookings, which I haven’t been for a while, we had fun walking around and actually got kicked out of...
Megan and John got to be the first shot in my new house. It was a bit chilly outside and so we stayed in and found lots of options in the house.CA
The Sather household has now been expanded to 6. Gabriel is child number 4 and he is such a sweet mild baby. I of course had to hold him bunches and get my baby fix.CA Had to give Alex a little love since she is always so patient and her new room is so cute.
I love that I get to photograph beautiful real women and help them to realize just how beautiful they are.CA South Dakota Boudoir Photography
You’d think working for a photog would mean you take advantage and get images all the time. But really it means you take for granted all that there is a good photog near by and therefore procrastinate and reschedule. Finally here is one of Coltons one year portrait. In my new house.CA
For the last 2.5 years I have been operating this business from a room in our small 3 bedroom apartment. Well as I have grown it has become an issue. I didn’t have room for my assistants or myself to effectively work. The studio space has always only been big enough for shooting and meeting....
