Thanks guys! It was great working with you!

It's all about the twigs

2009-10-18T16:06:00.001-07:00

The picture above might look nice-- but it was cold. Little Chelsea wanted to play regardless. I love that about little ones. This sweet little bundle wanted to show me every stick and was fascinated by the leaves. :)

Thanks guys!

How can you not want to just kiss these cheeks!??

How could you not love all those faces!

Meet Annie

2009-09-28T17:53:00.000-07:00

This summer I had the opportunity to spend time with a beautiful family- the MacDonald's. I went to High school with Bridget several years ago (oy- it feels like just yesterday)- but only just reconnected through facebook. When I first heard the story of their family and the joy and the journey they have been on - my heart broke and beauty soared from the hearts of 4 people who love one little girl more than she will ever understand.

Meet Annie-
Annie is 4 years old and has what is called Rett's syndrome. I am sure most of you have never heard of it (neither have I) but I can only imagine the journey the family has been on. To have a healthy little girl that has gradually regressed to be unable to take care of herself but more importantly unable to enjoy many of the things many young children enjoy-- as Bridget describes: "Rett Syndrome is a devastating disease that has robbed Annie of any sort of independence. She is not able to
run, color, sing, dance, feed herself, reach for a toy, or tell us her needs and wants. Annie’s autonomic system has been affected, she has trouble chewing and swallowing and is fed through a g-tube for extra nourishment. She has anxiety, poor circulation, severe digestive problems, trouble regulating her breathing and body temperature, disrupted sleep patterns and scoliosis. Annie will need 24 hour care for the rest ofher life. Currently there are no treatments or cure for Rett Syndrome."

Can you imagine: the symptoms of autism, cerebral palsy, Parkinson’s, epilepsy, and anxiety disorders....ALL IN ONE LITTLE GIRL. That is Annie. And in spite of the disabilities she has she is a brilliant and happy little girl. I had the chance to see her smile- hear her laugh and see the joy on her brother and sisters faces as they shared time together. This for sure is one of my favorite pictures.

This family inspires me and captures the truth behind the joy of why I take pictures.

Total spunk

2009-09-28T17:48:00.001-07:00

This family had spunk! It was great! I love it when personality shines though!

Stunning and the world at her fingertips

2009-09-28T17:44:00.000-07:00

I love doing senior sessions! It's such a fresh fun time in life! I love to capture the individual personalities, the confidence and excitement in their faces. Melissa was radiant, fun and absolutely beautiful inside and out!

Baby B

2009-09-28T17:32:00.000-07:00

Earlier this summer I did a maternity session for this beautiful family.

And now Baby B has made his debut. Here are some from his newborn session this summer.

So lucky

2009-08-12T17:16:00.000-07:00

I am so lucky to get to work with such great families. I often end up becoming friends with my clients and am so blessed to have them and their children in my life. This little bundle I've been capturing images of since she was born. I had the oprotunity to capture her family again a few weeks ago.

About ck photography

2009-08-12T13:44:00.000-07:00

Do you ever feel like life is passing you by? I used to be one of those who struggled to keep up with the everything I had to "do"- then I discovered that there are so many important things in life that were passing me by. The things you really want to cherish and remember are the personalities of your children, the adorable twinkle in your toddlers eye, the independence and confidence of a high school senior, the laughter and joy that rings from your house when your family is together or the joy and excitement of a newly engaged couple. Those moments are why I started to take pictures that are a little out of the ordinary.

What's different about ck photography?

Maybe you've discovered that 10 minutes in a studio won't usually capture your personalities, it will usually create lots of stress and chaos for parents and children. So what's different about ck photography? I am a custom photographer. I want your photos to reflect you, the spunk of your child, the joy of your family and the beauty of your life how it really is. My goal is to work with you in the process to help create and capture an image that reflects just that. Ultimately the beauty of custom photography is about the experience. You have one on one contact with me, the photographer, to help you with what to wear, discovering what your families style is, and picking the best place to have your pictures taken.

Sessions:
Sessions are relaxed and not rushed. Each session is 1-2 hours and at the location of your choice. The session is about telling your story- capturing real smiles. I will chat with your child, play with your toddler, ask your teenager questions about life. Together we will walk around and create and capture real moments. In the end I hope you will walk away with a great experience and anxious to see your custom gallery of proofs that reflect life's real moments!

Contact me today to book your session. Email me at ckphotographyemail@gmail.com

I look forward to working with you!
Christy

I have really enjoyed being on facebook and being able to re-connect with old friends and acquaintances from high school and college. This past weekend I had the opportunity to reconnect with a few who had contacted me about taking pictures.

It was great to see old faces and meet new families. It's been a long time since hs (we will just leave it at that). So fun to re-connect.

She was wide away until the very end when we were done - then she gave up and fell sound asleep.

Welcome to the world little Maggie!

Oh boy!

2009-07-12T17:17:00.000-07:00

Just being a Kid

2008-12-02T17:09:00.001-08:00

People often tell me that they love the way I capture kids. I have to say that is because when I do sessions with kids-- I let them be kids. They play- they laugh- they show me all their "cool" stuff. If you think about it part of what is so cute about kids is the little things that make them unique- innocent, priceless-- their expressions, their smiles, the way they squish their noses when they laugh. It's not when they are sitting perfectly with their head tilted slightly right. It's when they are being themselves.

This little guy I was able to capture having fun- licking a sucker, showing me his Thomas the Train and John Deer Combines. All things little boy-- then of course some fun in the snow with mom and dad!

Winter fun

I am not a fan of cold weather but one think I love is the charicter of little kids in cute hats! These two were so much fun and had great smiles and beautiful eyes that made it so fun to capture their personalities.

Capturing the innocence- kids

2008-11-17T15:19:00.000-08:00

It's never been a question to anyone who has known me if I like kids or not. It's been pretty clear, so as I have pursued my photography career I have tried all kinds and by far my favorite is kids. I love their innocence. I love the simplicity of the smile on a little ones face. The carefree laughter in a small child, the heart of older ones who long to have a great picture to give their parents. So in hunting down my nitch- I have found that my heart longs to capture the moments of families, kids and teens. I will continue to do a limited number of weddings a year. I love the emotion of the weddings. But I find myself in love the expression of love and joy in the face of a child- the togetherness in a family- and the sense of hope & confidence of high school seniors. THere is something that can be said when you hear the joy of a monther say- "This is the best picture of our family ever" or "This captures his real personality".

Here are a few from two sessions this weekend.

(Yes- it was snowing yesterday during this session)

I hope you have been able to capture the moments in your life that express love- care- hope and joy. I would love to help you capture those moments and personalities.

Sometimes it seems life is busy and we get going through the motions. I urge you to take 15min today (in the midst of the start of the Christmas/Thanksgiving season) and think about what you are blessed by- who you are thankful for- jot a note, pick up the phone, hug your kids.

Have a great day! More to come soon.

I love fall leaves

Back in August I had the chance to meet this little guy and take his 9 month pictures. Now he's 1 year and on the move. These are a few from back in August.
Here he is at 1 yr. On the go, playing, laughing, and enjoying a good ESPN magazine (much to his Dad's joy).
