Beautiful Mama-to-be and Daddy, too . . . {sneak peek}

Kathryn — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 04:38:22 +0000

I’ve always wanted to shoot in this area and E and B were willing to troop all over the place with me! The colors and textures are fantastic – a photographer’s dream! E is due any day now with her first baby and the two of them couldn’t be any cuter. Makes me long for that first newborn experience again (just a little). Plus, could they be any more gorgeous? I can’t wait to meet their little guy in the next few weeks and he will definitely have a starring role here! Now that spring’s here, I’m gearing up for sessions again! So, hopefully my poor blog won’t be so abandoned!

sweet little r . . . {sneak peek}

I had such a nice time with the N family. After cancellations for weather, sniffles and even the flu, we finally got our session in! And, what a perfect day. It was a little chilly, but little R was such a trooper. Is he cute or what? He and his adorable cousin, M, are going to make quite a little pair as they get older! Okay, I’ll stop talking and give you what you came for. . .images! Crazy busy with sessions, so get ready for more sneak peeks next week! Thanks L and E, I hope you love your gallery!

little miss t . . . another perfect newborn . . . {sneak peek}

Oh my goodness, little Miss T was 9 pounds and seven ounces of pure perfection. Look at those lips and that hair. Plus, she was a dream to photograph – either sleeping, eating or calmly staring at the camera!

This baby girl’s parents won my services at an auction for our neighborhood school and meeting her mom while she was pregnant, I knew she would have a gorgeous baby! I had a great day with her family, even getting little brother B in on the action. He is going to be a great big brother. I bet he is getting lots of attention from his grandmother. The unusually large number of images in this sneak peek are just for Grandma since M told me that she doesn’t have a computer and also because several of the images were taken on her mother’s afghan (that’s your great-grandmother, Miss T!). I love it when clients use meaningful blankets or other items in their images.

Hope you love them A Family! There are so many beautiful ones still to come.

a little time out for my own girls . . .

Kathryn — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 02:18:39 +0000

I’ve been so busy looking at other people’s kids, I decided it was time to take my girls out for a few. There is a spot right near my house that I’ve driven around so many times thinking about all the great colors and textures. I’ve always been just a little afraid that I’d be kicked out since it’s all private businesses. Today was surprisingly nice (rain, rain, rain, please go away so I can fit all these sessions in!). So, off we went to try to get a few holiday pictures! The girls were great. L did not want to cooperate for long, but I still got some good ones and G is the best daughter a photographer could ask for. Always willing to try anything and even coming up with some good shots herself!

Okay, back to editing! K Family look for something later tonight and E Family, yours should be ready tomorrow!

A favorite family brings me back from a blog hiatus . . .{sneak peek}

Kathryn — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 23:22:48 +0000

The blog has been quiet, but my schedule has not! I’m gearing up for the fall/holiday rush and can’t wait to capture all kinds of gorgeous fall images. Now if only the weather would cooperate. Rain, rain, go away!

I got lucky with one of my favorite families and we had a beautiful day. I’ve been so fortunate to take pictures of little Miss M as a newborn, at seven months and now, at a year! It is so much fun to see how much she’s changed!

I’m going to keep this short and sweet because you’re really here to see the pictures and I’ve got galleries galore to get up. I’m going to try to get up some catch-up images from the sessions I’ve been doing over the past few months very soon.

another 7/8/9 baby . . . perfect little P . . . {sneak peek}

Kathryn — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 06:02:39 +0000

Little Mr. P was a photographer’s dream! There are just some babies who make my job so easy. He slept, slept and then, slept some more. It was one of those sessions where I couldn’t pick what to post here. Just too many! I knew I would like C & D right from the start. How sweet is this? D called me to purchase this session as a Mother’s Day present for C – definitely have to like a husband like that!

It was so great meeting both of you finally. (You know I had to include one of your first “baby.”)

My beautiful niece . . . {my life}

Kathryn — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 02:32:19 +0000

Things have been a little quiet on the blog for the past few weeks, but not in my life! Things have been buzzing along and I have lots of sneak peeks that I’m going to share very soon. In the meantime, I’m so happy to introduce my beautiful niece – Miss P! Born 7/8/9 – how cool is that? Here’s a few from the hospital, many more to follow. If you want to see some more of her and you’re on Facebook, become a fan of Kathryn Pierce Photography or friend me : )

Without further ado . . .

Update . . . {News}

Kathryn — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 15:29:17 +0000

As many of you know, I was excitedly looking forward to a photography workshop this week given by the awesome Amy Wenzel. While we were at the workshop mixer Sunday night, Amy received some very life-altering news. Her husband, David, was traveling in San Francisco. He was goofing around and fell and injured his head. He thought he’d suffered a slight concussion, but the next day he had a seizure and was admitted to the hospital. While there and doing the scans related to his head injury, they found a brain tumor. You can read all about it here. They said if he hadn’t fallen, he probably wouldn’t have found the tumor for several years and at that point, it might have been too late. Amy, of course, immediately canceled the workshop and flew to California to be with her husband. It sounds like they will be traveling to Minnesota so that David can have brain surgery at the Mayo Clinic. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

I had planned on posting several sneak peeks while I was there basking in the aloneness of my hotel room (read no little girls saying “mommy” every two seconds). Instead, I spent yesterday with the other workshop attendees figuring out our options and then, driving home. My wonderful in-laws are keeping the girls as planned, so I have two glorious days to catch up and will be posting later today.

Hug your loved ones extra tight today, you never know when life will turn your world upside down.

last day of school . . .

Kathryn — Sat, 06 Jun 2009 05:33:10 +0000

Well, another year is under our belts here at the Pierce’s. We’re going to a new school next year, so it’s a little sad for us. We were lucky enough to be able to walk to school this year, which is kind of unusual in the city. G woke up this morning and just had to ride her bike to school. Daddy said yes, even though it meant he had to carry her bike all the way home. Since I started taking pictures for other people’s families, I have to say I’ve been a bit lax in capturing the milestones for my own family. As little G was on her way out the door, I managed to get just a few. It’s amazing how much they change in a year at this age! I am so proud of her.

Sweet Baby B {Newborn Sneak Peek} . . .

Kathryn — Wed, 20 May 2009 07:10:25 +0000

How perfect is this little guy? He spent the whole session either sleeping or looking perfectly awake. Mom and dad seemed so happy and relaxed and I’m thinking Baby B is already taking on that vibe! I got to meet him on his one week birthday and he looked like he’d already added a bit to his almost nine pound birth weight. I had to share a ton because I just couldn’t pick. . .
