Hannah: Senior 2008

hannah_senior_0004.jpg

Hi blog readers! It has been a little while, hasn’t it? I am hoping you all had a wonderful Christmas and were able to see family & friends. This time of year is always busy and hectic and crazy for so many people and I am not the exception. The rush of Christmas, usually a casual birthday celebration (turned 27 yesterday) and then the rush for prepping the end of the year and the beginning of another. Whew!

Well, this one is long overdue, but with the holiday break, I was unable to get them all edited and posted!

I had a wonderful time with Hannah, (accompanied by her mom and sister!). We met out in Blue Springs on a very cold day at Burr Oak Woods nature center. It ended up being a great place to shoot at. Lots of fun hanging out in God’s creation.

Enjoy!

I’m a sucker for teasing hair, laughing at trees, and native prairie grasses (which can grow to be 8 feet tall)!

Loving the flair of the sun mixed with bench…I saw spots for quite a while after accidentally looking at the sun. Whoops!

Sorry Hannah, for making you get comfy on a log. I know you thought you were going to have fun, but at least the bugs and bears were hibernating!

I loved her layered look with the scarves and coat and all the layered tops. Take notes, ladies! hannah_senior_0081.jpg

Pretty smile!

Yeah, I have an affinity for dumpsters. I’m weird, I know.

The setting sun rocks for beautiful light. So warm and fuzzy, even on a cold day.

Pretty tops and cool shoes make for fashion, no? Wee.

There we went with the tall grasses again.

Look, it’s a deer…okay, it’s really mom & sis, who were dears, but not the kind with antlers. hannah_senior_0400.jpg

Aaaahhh! Crazy people!

Christmas Joy 2007

Ho-ho-ho-happy people!

Christmas is just around the corner! When you are done rockin’ around the Christmas tree, please remember that the last chance you’ll have to guarantee Christmas delivery of products and prints from Steller Photography is if orders are placed by December 3rd. Our suppliers are hit hard during the holidays as their elves rush to complete orders, so our normal turnaround is affected as well. Anything ordered after December 3rd cannot be guaranteed to arrive before Christmas.

Merry Christmas to all my amazing clients!

p.s. I like to post a picture with my posts, so in keeping with that tradition…here are some recent pics of my girls from a couple weeks ago. My redheads are getting so big!
