Category Archives: Families On August 13th I had Kas, Lorraine, Blake & Kaylee come in for a family portrait session. Kas is my ‘go to’ guy for all things computer related! I’ve been using his services for over a year and couldn’t be happier. Whenever I have a problem I just have to call him and he takes...

You don’t! You take them all! Now some people might call these ‘Lifestyle’ photographs, but these are MORE than that! You have control of the lighting and posing even though it doesn’t look like you have posed this family. Now THAT’S what professional photography is all about – making it look unposed when you have actually guided people into position. They’re NOT just ‘snapshots’ like all the ‘cheap and cheerful’ photographers out there claim are ‘Lifestyle’ photography. You have captured the relationships in this family perfectly, and I can feel the warmth among the family members. How lucky are they to have had you as their photographer!

Thank you Inge. It takes years to learn all the rules of composition and lighting and how to use your camera – and once you’ve perfected that – you can break the rules! You’re right – these photographs didn’t ‘just happen’ – I guided each and every ‘pose’ and know how to use window light to my advantage!  On June 28th I braved the sodden grass and mosquitoes to photograph the Oswald’s on their yard out in the country. Erwin & Norma and family came into the studio for family portraits on their 25th and again on their 45th wedding anniversary. Now they were celebrating 50th years together and they asked me to... by admin no comments  In my previous post I featured a family I photographed on the 3rd of August. I gave them a Sneak Preview by posting a few of my favorite portraits from their session as they haven’t seen them as yet. I also posted them to my Fan Page on Facebook – http://www.facebook.com/pages/Marlenes-Designer-Portraits/101824076523751?ref=ts Carissa re-posted the images... by admin 1 comment

What I wrote was the complete truth! We could not have got this quality anywhere else! At that time of day and after a long day photographing our kids is next to impossible (actually it almost is ANYTIME of day but especially then! lol) and yet I wasn’t worried about being there at that time. After we left I knew the kids had been crazy but I had complete faith that out of that you would still have captured our family exactly as we are and I would love it! That’s impressive and it’s worth a LOT!  Last Tuesday, right after the long weekend, I photographed a family that has been here numerous times over the years! I remember photographing Carissa when she turned 16 and now she is the mother of two very cute and very active young children. When you have children like this, why would you even attempt... by admin 1 comment

It’s a pleasure for us too Marlene! I was thinking after we took these photos how I could do a photo hournal of my life using mostly your photos! lol! My 16th, my grad, my engagement, the birth of my daughter, Alli as a toddler, the birth of my son, and now him as a toddler and her as a preschooler! You always have and continue to amaze me with your work!  Today I had the pleasure of photographing a 21 day old little baby boy! We got some great images of the family and of the 3 children together and then he started fussing! I suggested that perhaps the wee one needed some nourishment and Mom said he had just eaten less than an hour earlier!... by admin 2 comments
