The Kreikemeier Family

So Jesie and I had a pretty fun morning! Earlier in the year, the Kreikemeier family purchased a children's photo shoot from the 2008 Heart Ball benefiting the American Heart Association. The session was actually offered by the man who taught me everything I know about photography and who also plays some mean summer volleyball: Amon of Striking Images by Amon. Amon, however, recently moved to Nebraska (big time bummer for all of Colorado Springs) so I took over a few of his sessions. These kiddos were a blast. Cade, Cole, and Carson. We had a grand time eatin' Goldfish and fruit snacks and making silly faces. Oh, and let's not forget all the tickling. :)

We shot a little differently than RTP normally does. Today's session was conducted in the Kreikemeier's beautifully window-lit living room. The soft light combined with the white walls and couches made for some sweet images.

Aren't they a beautiful family?
Just ticklin' his big brother...
"Precious" is all I have to say.
It's pretty hard to get 3 and 4-year-olds to look at the camera...
...unless you're hovering directly above them. :)

    The soft window lighting of this shoot is priceless! It gave such a crisp, clean feeling to the shoot and made those beautiful boy-blues pop!

    These kiddos were so much fun to shoot. Talk about a triplet of CUTIES! The Kreikemeier family was so classy and sweet.
