The Nothaus Family | Kyah Probst

admin — Sun, 25 Sep 2011 16:47:24 +0000

If you follow me on Facebook, you may have read that Kyah, my twelve year old daughter, has been learning her way around the dSLR camera! You may remember this video we made about her journey with photography…. yes, she’s a totally awesome kid. Not that I’m biased or anything. Well, I am so excited to share with you her very first family session! She had the pleasure of shooting for one of my dear friends, Suzy, and her family – Barclay, Owen, and Levi!

And for anyone who shoots family photography… you know shooting two young boys is not an easy task!

Add on to that the fact that Kyah was used to shooting with my old Nikon D50 and that I decided at the last minute she should use my D7000 (which has different control locations and is set to back button focus), giving her less than 24 hours to get used to all these new features on the camera! And she still rocked it out!! And for all the photogs out there – she shoots in manual and I edited the images using the same settings I use for my own images!

Tim and I could not be more proud of our little tog and can’t wait to see where her talents take her! Fabulous job, Baberino!!!

Levi-Perez Kids + One | Kids

I can hardly believe that little Julia is the big 0-2. I remember her mom, Michelle, waddling around in the sweltering summer heat like it was yesterday!! :) Fast forward two years and tiny Julia is a rompin’, stompin’ two year old who can hold her own amongst her rowdy clan! It seems every year we end up in the playroom either because of the heat, or this year the rain! Regardless, there is nothing to stop us from having a blast, telling “yo mama” jokes, and getting some great pics! These are almost all of the images from the session, but they turned out so well I couldn’t choose… and Michelle’s sister was visiting from Dallas and I wanted to make sure she got to see a good chunk before heading back! Enjoy!

Dear Internets… I Love My Neighbors | Sneak Peek

Oh how I love my neighbors… let me count thy ways! No, seriously – they are the best neighbors a girl could have! So when they asked if I could come over and grab a few pictures while they had family in town, of course I said yes! I wish I had more time to sit and chat without my three wonky kids around as one of the sister’s was visiting from Africa where she is a missionary! How amazing is that? Maybe next time she travels 1/3 of the way around the world (or however far that is) the hubs will be in town so I can go get chatty with my fave neighbors! :) I couldn’t post anything else for their sneak peek because this is SO them! It’s a framer for sure! :))

Okay… I just had to add this one! LOVE! :)

Triple the Fun | Sneak Peek

Yesssssss…. ladies and gentlemen, I survived the triplets! And they were totally awesome. No meltdowns, everyone was relaxed, listening, and being completely adorably cute! Kudos to mom and dad for surviving this long! :)) Oh, and SO glad spring is here! Huge thank you to Meghan for helping me out and packing all of my gear while I wandered aimlessly with the little people!

Sneak Peek | Studio

Here is a quick sneak peek of our studio session this morning! Any time you are photographing tiny walking people, there are usually lots of songs, ridiculous sounds, and strange faces being made throughout the session… this was no exception! I couldn’t resist the first pic. Just hilarious! I’d also like to thank mom, Tina, for her lovely singing voice and Heather for finding some hilarious kids songs to play! Too much fun!!!

The Frank Kids | Studio

Well, the studio is in full swing now and we were so excited to have my friend Tena come in with her three GOHR-geous kids to help us test out the lights for groups. Looks like everything went well, there were no tears, AND I think Tena got a little break by having two extra sets of hands in myself and Heather!

I had the extreme pleasure of visiting with the Safron Family tonight in celebration of mother/grandmother/great-grandmother’s 80th birthday! They were such a fun – and good looking – bunch! We were even serenaded by her very talented grandson who is an actor/singer out in Los Angeles… such a great family!

Every fall I run into the same issue… I get so bogged down with shooting other people’s events and families that I nearly run out of time to squeeze in my own kids pictures before Christmas! Luckily, the weather has been so amazing this fall, we were still able to make it out in mid-November with only some light clothing! Yay! More to come very soon!

Yes, you ARE seeing double! These are my new friends M & C who did a super awesome job during their session today… and clearly they are just two of the cutest six-year-old twin boys you’ve ever seen! More to come very soon!!

The O’Reilly family and I hit the riverfront in St. Charles this afternoon to wrangle some pictures out of their oh-so-adorable kids and even snuck in a few of mom and dad… AND man’s best friend(s)! Seriously – could these kids be ANY cuter… and mom and dad are hilarious to boot! All in a days work… More to come very soon!
