Breana

How excited was I when Breana called us about her Senior Photo Shoot requesting the option of incorporating her Rodeo Lifestyle. I quickly responded with "NOT A PROBLEM!"
It's always fun when people want to step outside the box when it comes to their portraits.
I've been just itching to make the first image below. It's been one in my head for a long time and Breana was completely willing to make that happen...Prom Dress and all!
What do you think? Did we hit the nail on the head or what?!
Thanks to Breana for being willing to do everything I suggested. YOU ROCK! And special thanks to her mom and sister for the grilled brats for lunch!

Anagram Blog Fans

What can we say. We have developed quite a little name for ourselves. So much so, that we actually have real life fans! (By the way...tee shirts are on their way)
A super shout out to Matt for informing us that "Paurus Design" is the Anagram for "Persuading Us".
What more can I say...I'm speechless.

Brittany

There's nothing quite like a day on the farm...but it sure is one to remember when it's 102 degrees in the shade! Brittany is one of two of my hardworking seniors of the summer as she bravely toughed it out in the sweltering heat. Nothing and I mean NOTHING interfered with this girls ability to look amazing!
Thanks Brittany for the super-glamorous shoot! You truly are a hardworking senior!

Allison

Softly in the background I hear clinking glasses and soft jazz music...
Allison proved to be one of my hardest working seniors of this year. With a temperature of 98 degrees in the shade, this girl not only followed direction with a smile, she rocked each and every pose! I couldn't help but applaud her ability to channel the 1940's beauties that we had talked about while traveling from location to location. Her uncanny representations were absolutely amazing. Look out Greta Garbo...here comes Allison!
Thank you all for a great session and special thanks to her mom and sister who stood by the way side with cool packs and DQ misty's.
You are timelessly beautiful Allison, Thank you for your amazingness!

And one for Mom of her beautiful little girls!

Alyssa

Coming to us all the way from Langdon, North Dakota is the breathtaking Miss Alyssa. It ended up being a long day shooting, but the following images were completely worth it. I can't thank Joyce enough for bragging us up to Alyssa's Mom...who in turn IMMEDIATELY booked us after seeing our sweet style of senior pics! Props to our second mom Joyce!
Alyssa could you possibly take a bad picture? This girl was slammin-photogenic with eyes that nearly knocked me over!
Consider having your photo taken for a profession my dear...you're a real natural!
Thanks for making the long trip. We all enjoyed your amazing personality and your glamorous appearance.

Kelley Reunion

From across the country and around the world, the Kelley Family made Valley City the official reunion location for 2007.
It turned out to be the perfect day for a photo-shoot and as you can clearly see the members of this ultra-beautiful family had a total blast whilst shooting some amazingly-outstanding pics!
It's always a pleasure to get to spend a fun-filled day with such a great and fun loving group of people. I did have to watch myself a few times as Steve decided to pull out the "guns" for a few pics. Not to worry, we made sure the children were a safe distance away.
Thanks again to a great group of people who traveled far and wide to be together this summer. I'm happy to say...the few below are only a very small sampling of what awaits you in your ultra-glamorous online gallery.
Much love to the Kelley's! Travel safely home!

Jennifer and Derek

You know you've hit it big when people actually travel by plane just to have you take some super awesome photos of them!
That's exactly what Jennifer and Derek did! Coming all the way from Yuma, AZ to document their one year anniversary with a sweet day consisting of a beautiful outdoor session teamed up with an amazing trash the dress finale. We couldn't have been happier, or more chocked full of caffeine if we tried!
As you can see, any photographer would be hard pressed to find a more beautiful couple to have as their personal models. These two were not only incredibly beautiful, but so much gosh-darned fun to be around.
Have a safe flight home you two. We thank you for making the trek to document your amazing day.
Happy One Year Anniversary!
