This is my newest rep- Kaeli- personality plus. I had so much fun keeping warm during her photo session and helping to keep Kaeli moving around so she could be relaxed and have a good time. I love the fall colors and the plum punch of her vest in this photo. Ohhh ... and the cute hat- just makes the look complete-yeah! Remeber the book- the little engine that could {love that book}...be the little engine and enjoy the rest of your senior year. Have a great time/one day you'll look back and you'll remember all the fun you had with your friends.

Have you seen this guy? He's been seen carrying a tennis racket and hanging out with friends-

Give him a big smile unless you know him- in that case, give him a big hug! He's a great guy. The first person to email me with his name wins a 5x7 photo of their choice {not of this guy but of yourself- if you had your photos taken by me}

Paige

Windmill Garden's Family Fall Festival

Here are a few of my favorite photos from Windmill Garden's Fall Family Festival.

My daughter, Nicole, helped with the event, keeping names and faces in order.

It was so great to see such a great turn out on such a beautiful day. Hope to see you there again next year! Thanks to everyone who made the event a success.

James

If you've been to any of the ARHS football games you'll recognize James-He's a great all around guy. We created this photo at the Auburn Memorial Stadium where ARHS home games are played. Check out his beautiful smile and dimple. Have a great senior year James- It was a pleasure photographing you.

Happy Halloween!

Have a great day today-My husband spooked my son this morning. I wish I had my camera ready. He had a great expression! I found this graffiti earlier this month and thought it would make a great Halloween greeting. Enjoy.

Secret Garden

These sweet sisters are my neighbors- They are so smart and creative and good friends to each other. I took these photos in a location the girls wanted to explore in this beautiful garden. I wonder what the secret was? It sure got a good reaction.

New little one

This is the sweetest, cutest, little baby boy. He is simply beautiful. I took these photos in their home so that they could enjoy the comforts of home sweet home. It was so great that both mom and dad were home too. A perfect beginning to a beautiful day with their sweet little one. Can you see how in love they are with their little guy. (and each other too)

Brolin

This image is a fun one from todays session with Brolin. Awesome j-u-m-p!

Candice

Candice-here are the two images you select for my blog and your use. ( I added the one in the dress because it is so cute!) I had a super time with you during your photo session. I love the bright colors you wore and the awesome color in the flowers and surroundings. The lighting in your photos is so cool! Love the way the sun shines on your hair. Hope you are having a great senior year so far. Keep on, keep on wearing the great, bright colors...they looks so good on you.

Kaylee

Kaylee truly is "little miss sunshine" but I named her photo "Little miss Smiley" and she is that too. I had so much fun creating great images for Kaylee. I had her bring along her Twilight book so we could photograph her reading it. I liked her images so much I used one on my calendar page on my website.{she found it before I got a chance to tell her} Kaylee is someone you could never run out of things to talk about. She has so many interests and is a good hearted person - she is simply contagious= (:

More buddies...these two friends are awesome together. We worked at the whole "Twilight" look. Loved the books so much, we had to try for some fun photos to go with the theme. Someone looks mad, because Bella likes Edward. With friends like Kristin who needs Edward?

More photos to come when I get to the real deals. Keep smile'n Kaylee.

SHAUNA- so much fun! you are a kick! Shauna...the woman of many great faces. This is a buddy photo of Shauna with her beautiful pal in a great setting. Wish I could have shown you your beautiful photos today-- see you soon.

Christmas in October Special

Send me an email if you would like to reserve a spot for your family! photosbycarla@msn.com

Nicole

I found these photos of my daughter while I was looking for Maddie's photos and I decided to have some fun with them. I took these at the farm last year during her senior session. Nicole was a good sport and created some dramatic and fun images with the rod iron gate. I like the different perspectives of these photos and they serve as a reminder that there are more than one approach/side/story to everything and so today I will take the time to remember and practice this notion. I'm so grateful that I came upon these images today. Nicole's profile and eyes are so pretty. I could hug her forever, (but she needs to do other things like school and work and have a life) she is so sweet. So I'll hold her in my heart and love and hug her there.

Maddie

Maddie- Hope you are having a great time at WSU.

I love your pictures from last fall.... and here we are again approaching fall. Glad you'll be able to use these awesome photos of you for web use. I had a difficult time deciding on the photos to post. These are some of my favorites of the close up photos. You are so dang cute. Keep in touch.

I send great care packages but I need your address to send one to you:}

-Where ever you go, go with all you heart.

Zack- you're such a blast! I love your smile and your dazzeling dimples. You have an amazing passion for lacrosse that makes you soar with the eagles. You are a winner and an awesome goalie. Have a great year at Bonnie Lake High- make it a year to remember.

Sam I am

Sam's session was such a good time. It's so much fun to photograph music instruments as part of the scene. I can remember the day I met Sam his first year at ARHS. He looked like a senior and I had to ask his mom to confirm that is was a freshman. Now, four years later and Sam is starting his senior year. Everyone that know Sam knows what a great guy he is...all around good friend and person.

I have a senior beach day coming up Sept. 13. If you are interested in joining me for a senior photo session give me a call to save a spot and find out the details. 253 862-5153/Carla

We are Family and the Guard Dog

Love this photo of my friends and their darling dog. This image was taken at their vacation home on the sound - pretty fun! They are a great family: fully of adventure and laughs. Spend some time with them and you'll be grinning form ear to ear with joy. I'm sure they were all smiling in the photo --you just can't tell :} I know Lokee looks just like my dog Beau - but really it's their dog. He is great and loves to play with Beau. You guys are too much fun. Ok- Brandon, you're up next: Senior pics- tag your it. see you soon.
