Lindy - Rodeo Princess Portraits * Cottage Grove, OR

Lindy was a Senior Rodeo Princess this year and needed a portrait in her princess outfit, so we headed out to her house to take a few portraits of her and one of her horses.  Here are a couple of images from the session.

Lindy - Beach Portraits * Florence, OR

Several weeks ago, I took Beach Portraits of Lindy near Florence, OR.  Lindy didn't have a chance to take her Senior Portraits before graduation, and I needed a model to get some updated Beach Portraits for my galleries, so we headed to the coast for the afternoon.  We had a great time, and she even braved the cold water for a few portraits.  Here are a few of my favorite images from Lindy's session.

And for anyone who might be interested in having Beach Portraits this summer, there's still time!  Contact me right away to find out my availability and book your session!

Hope Family - Family Portraits * Cottage Grove, OR

After talking about doing Family Portraits for at least a year or two, I was finally able to get a session with the Hope Family while they were in town for a visit.  We went to the Village Green Resort and Gardens and got a few portraits of the whole family together, and then let the kids run and play while I took some more informal portraits of them.  I had a great time photographing the family, and I can't wait to meet baby #3 this fall!

Enjoy the preview!

Catching up...

I've fallen way behind on blogging lately, for several reasons.  The first reason is that I have been spending much of the summer traveling and just hanging out with David and Paige.  Paige is already 6 months old, and I'm trying to figure out just where the time has gone.  The day Paige was born, I started a personal "365" project to capture her "on film" (saying "on the CF card" just doesn't sound the same, does it?) so that we will have a permanent, visual record of her growth.  This, of course, takes up quite a bit of my "free time".

The other major reason that I have fallen behind on the blog lately is that I have spent the summer working on a major re-branding of Kim Larsen Photography.  I have redesigned my logo, which also means redesigning my watermark, business cards, brochures, and pretty much everything marketing related in the business.  I have also been working on a complete overhaul of the website, which will be unveiled very soon (next week, I hope!).

I am also going to be posting about a few recent sessions on the blog, starting with the most recent, so check back for more new posts, and stay tuned for some major updates and a whole new look on the website.
