Morning at Cottage Grove Lake

I was underexposing and using my graduated neutral density filter to keep things a bit on the dark side and so I could keep some of the richness and saturation of color. You can also see that I was having fun playing with my star filter.

Sasha & Benton's Wedding

Here is a quick look at a few pictures from Sasha and Benton's wedding yesterday.

Sasha's dress was amazing!





Benton's cast... fortunately his pants fit over it!


Sasha and Benton chose to do their formal pictures before the ceremony, so we did a "first look" for them before we did the formal shots.




Notice the cake topper.... very cute!


Having a little fun with the Marines!

Shelby - Class of 2010 Senior Portraits

Here are a few images from a senior portrait session I did yesterday morning. Shelby is so photogenic & very easy to work with. You'd never know that she doesn't like to have her picture taken!

Website Updates!

It's been in the works for a long time, and we're finally ready! The Kim Larsen Photography website has been majorly updated! We redid the homepage a while ago, but it took a while to get the other pages done. We now have an "about me" page, a new "galleries" page (which is still being updated, so keep checking back to see more new pictures), a new "prices and services" page, and my blog is now integrated into my website! You may still see a few changes over the next couple of days as I get all of the pictures uploaded and sorted out.

Check it out and let me know what you think!

Devin & his baby

Devin needed a picture to put on a poster for an upcoming concert performance, so we headed over to a nearby elementary school to grab a few shots. Here are a few that I liked.




Lindsay & Scott - Engagement Session

I've gotten a little behind on blogging lately... too much vacation and house remodeling...

Anyway, here are a couple of shots from a recent engagement session. Their wedding is coming up next Saturday, so I will soon have lots more pictures to post of this adorable couple.


I found out during this session that their wedding flowers are going to be Sunflowers, so as we were wandering the gardens at The Village Green, Scott came across a small patch of sunflowers that made for a perfect backdrop.
