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!

Photoshoot Progression – This link shows the making of a really cool ad that involves three models, paintball, flying and more. Check out the post and video, all my photographer friends.

Elise is an exciting, outgoing and personable young woman who comes from a wonderful family. I was so excited to shoot with her a few weeks back when the fall colors were slamming the world with golden hues. It was right after daylight savings, so we ended up shooting as the light quickly faded each evening, spanning over two days of short sessions instead of one longer session. It worked out because she lived (and we shot near) my house, so there wasn’t a lot of traveling involved…I think the results came out pretty dog-gone fun.

She is one of those people whom it is hard to take a bad photo of. Don’t you just hate that? Makes me jealous. Her natural smile is at a constant “on” state and she has no “off” button. I think God stuck a smile on her face and forgot to make her able to frown. Anyway, Elise is creatively talented and radiant.

I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I did taking them.

Elise, I am going to post the surprise photos up tomorrow on my blog. I think you’ll like them.

She climbed a tree and hung out for a while while I stood on my tippy-toes and tried to get some pics. Kinda cool, huh?

The Little Blue River, where we shot some of the time, was just beautiful this time of year.

It was chilly out, so we made use of the faux fur on her coat. Always looks good in black and white…

BIG brown eyes!

Laughing. Laughing. Laughing. It’s funny, she thought I was stupid for making her laugh at the rocks. I surely can’t make people laugh at my jokes, so rocks will have to do.

TALL grass and gorgeous sunset through the trees.

I loved the set with her hat and the leather jacket… It is sooo fresh.

Laying on the wicker on the front porch. Too fun!

Get out of the mulch! She is hanging onto the rails of her front porch and standing on the red mulch. I think I stepped on some irises…woops!

Laugh at the tree. Laugh at the tree…not that tree, the OTHER tree!

Weeeeeee!
