Orlando Family Photography: S Family


PicturePictureOkay, I'm slowly catching up...so time for another update!  A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of spending a warm Florida Saturday morning with a super fun Family!  Neal, Jessie, and their super cute little boy Noah make one of the cutest families!  They brought along with them a red rider wagon which of course I was pumped about!  And Noah is such a joy! He laughs and giggles so easily and love, love, loves his mommy and daddy.  He's also quite the curious little boy...when we let him just crawl free he would crawl fast!  He's an explorer, for sure! You can check out my favorite pictures from their session on my facebook site: www.facebook.com/kristinoellephotography.  
Oh, and Neal and Jessie got LOTS of pictures on their final CD for a super affordable price because they got to take advantage of my Spring Pricing special. Be sure to check it out on my pricing page!   And then contact me to get your session scheduled! :)

Charleston Photography: Smiling Faces, Beautiful Places

Picture
I'm a bit behind. It's true.  Life has been happening and hence, the blog has suffered.  But in the midst of life happening, my camera has seen lots of action!!  So hopefully In the next several days over several blog posts I'll be able to catch you all up to speed.  So where to start?  With a little road trip to SOUTH CAROLINA!  I'm always looking for excuses to get out of Florida, go on an adventure and have lots of fun!  Lucky for me, I have lots of great friends in my life who are usually up for adventures.  My friend Gretchen (yep, that's her in the post below) had asked me a while back if I'd be interested in running a 10k race in Charleston.  I like to run. I like to race. I like road trips. I like time with friends. I like adventures. And I'd been wanting to go to Charleston for a while (I'd heard it was really pretty).  So I was easily sold.  We talked our friend Carly into going as well and after hunting down a great deal on a hotel (thanks Dad for the help!!) we had made our plans.

PictureThe race we were running was the Cooper River Bridge run.  The 10k race starts in Mt. Pleasant, SC and ends in downtown Charleston after crossing the long bridge.  It is a gorgeous run!  The view from the bridge looking into Charleston is amazing.  And the weather was absolutely perfect while we were there.  So we enjoyed a great morning of running and then Saturday afternoon we went exploring (by foot, as if we hadn't already put in enough miles! ha!) Charleston.  Gretchen also enjoys photography so she had brought her camera along, too.  The three of us headed out and we captured some great photos.  I would seriously love, love, love to do some photo sessions in Charleston.  I would love even more to shoot a wedding in Charleston....any of you out there getting married soon and looking for a destination wedding??? :)  It's just so pretty.  So anyways, most of my pictures from the trip are on the artsy side rather

than the portrait side, but I love them!  So I hope you all enjoy as well.  I hope to go back to Charleston soon...lots of exploring left to do!  And if you haven't been to Charleston...GO! And be sure to go to Hominy Grill and check out the Shrimp and Grits. YUM!

Orlando Photography - Lights at Night

 
Picture
I spent a recent Saturday evening in Downtown Orlando with some friends.  And because I love photography and I love capturing the world on my camera, I brought my camera with me.  After enjoying amazing Florida weather with dinner outside on a patio, we all went for a walk.  I love walks.  I love them during the day when you can soak in the sunshine.  But I also love them at night. It's so cool to see how a city looks at night and how things change of the disguise of darkness.  So here are a few pictures from our nighttime stroll.  I did discover, though, that I need to invest in

a tripod.  I had to make several make-shift tripods in order to get some decent shots.  So I'll be adding tripod to my list of photography related items I'd like to purchase in the near future.
