Photo Shoot Deets

Yesterday I conducted a shoot for Author Candra Ward who's book entitled "In My Mind" 

will be coming out in the near future. 

For the worse day I've had for a shoot the day couldn't have turned out better because we got the shots she was looking to portray in her book.

I get to the shoot location to start...I'm setting up and  

BAM!!!

My flash drops off of my hotshoe flash clip...and no longer flashes.

And we all know as photographers...we must HAVE LIGHT!

Sooooooo....

First I want to give a shout out to 

BEST BUY!

They are totally awesome and their insurance plan is amazing!

Secondly I want to give a shout out to

MY HUSBAND

for ALWAYS making sure I purchase additional insurance on my equipment!

I love that man!

So I head over to Best Buy and they say Oh yeah we will go ahead and just replace it for you!

How awesome is that!

Oooooooooo but we no longer sale that specific flash that you have...

OMG! ARE YOU KIDDING!

Even though it took forever to get this taken care of...best buy customer service took care of me and replaced my flash with an UPGRADED SB flash..

And its 

AMAZING!!!!!

Ok..so anywho enough about my stressful flash interruption...

Candra did an amazing job for her first time doing the shoot! She swears she needs lessons but she doesn't!

I wanted her to be natural in most of her photos to show her readers who she really is..and I definitely think she did a great job in getting that description across. 

She is a very elegant, soft, strong-minded woman and I truly am grateful that I was able to not only meet her but to work with her! 

One thing that I absolutely LOVE about her is that she is so down-to-earth and loves life and has fun just like anyone of us! Here is one of her being silly  taking a photo.

 :) Love it!

Being silly in front of the camera brings comfort in being in front of the camera..And comfort in  front of the camera brings amazing shots! 

Anyone that has worked with me knows that I love to create a comfortable atmosphere and make sure that the day is fun on my shoots. I always try to capture candids just to add a little photojournalism about my day with a client.

So here is a few photos from yesterday's shoot!

Enjoy!

Tierra did a great job on makeup!

Ms. Ward getting beautified!

Isn't she gorgeous!

Yes, if it wasn't for Tierra trying to become a cast member of "Swamp People" we would have never seen snakes during the shoot...but WE DID!

EWWWW!

And this one was a bit bigger but hiding under water! How Tierra saw this one..I have no idea!

I am a photographer and assistant to the client!

Love my job..if you even call it that!

MUA Tierra doing her thing!

Catching Up...A Taste of Fabulous at 50

I haven't had a chance to get on here and add a couple photos from a couple of shoots that I have done this past week because I have been making sure to get edits done for clients in the timeframe given! I am finally caught up and now I can share a couple of photos.

This past weekend I had an event hosted by the lovely Sunnie Morrison for a Taste of Fabolous at 50 event for Mrs. Judy Mckay. It was held in Hollywood, Florida and it was great. I was so glad to work this event with First Class Productions Inc. If you don't know...Their awesome!

I was able to see my fav twins Delerice and Delpha Clarke! Aren't they stunning! They were the hostesses for the night!

The event consisted of great dancing, music, food and fun! I know Mrs. Mckay's friends and family enjoyed the night!

"A Bit Boudoir"

Model Melissa aka "Fergie"

So today I did my first Boudoir photo shoot. I was super excited to do this shoot. I had planned for it a couple months ago in order to submit a few photos for a magazine spread. I definitely think I accomplished what I was aiming for. I was on a mission so I set out to get a perfect location, make up artist, hair stylist and model. The one model that came to mind when I first thought of my vintage boudoir concept was Melissa. If you have seen her work then you will see she is an amazing model.

"LIKE" her Facebook Fan Page!

We did a number of different styles for the shoot. From the bed to the living room, to the shower, to the bath...hehe :) We got some stellar shots! I can't wait to share more photos with you all. I will also keep you updated as to which photo I choose to submit to the magazine!

"Two Teens and a Baby"

Today I conducted two shoots for two families which were both for their children. 

"Two Teens and a Baby!" 

This morning was for two super cute teenage sisters Letia (age 16) and Tatianna (age 12). I was so happy when their mom Theresa contacted me to book their photo shoot a couple months ago. I had the pleasure of doing Letia's first photo shoot a few months ago for her turning Sixteen so she was no stranger to my camera! This was her sister Tatianna's first photo shoot and she did great! I can't wait until their next shoot and to also add their brothers as well! Thanks Theresa for choosing KLM PHOTOGRAPHY again for your family memories!

After Letia and Tatianna's shoot I headed over to take some photos of the OH SO CUTE Cayden! Krysta, who is one of my fav models and friends, made sure that I was the photographer to take photos of her boyfriends little nephew. Thank you so much Krysta and Jocelyn for allowing me to take photos of Cayden. He was amazing! Its not very often when you have a 7 month old little boy who is sleepy but still willing to smile for the camera and cooperate with taking photos. I miss when my baby boys were that age! 

Head over to our facebook page to preview more photos of these two photo shoots! <3

"Editing My Life Away"

December has been a very busy month for KLM PHOTOGRAPHY and I LOVE IT!  I have been incessantly editing...everyday....and I still have tons of work to do. I think I have become an expert on time management and making sure I meet my deadlines for everything. As we say, We "AIM" to please!

While I edit I like to take breaks and most of them time my breaks consist of browsing the internet, reading blogs, etc..etc. Well, today I decided to redo both my main blog and Tumblr blogs appearance and I have to admit I am IN LOVE with both right now! I know I have changed them a number of times but I have come to realize that "Simple is Better." And I love that both are simple. This blog is my main blog which I like to share my  work and experiences throughout photo sessions and family life. My Tumblr blog is more of a fun gesture that allows me to not only share my experiences but allows me to interact with other bloggers and share what I like within their blogs as well with my readers. I have become addicted to Tumblr.
So make sure to check it out---> CLICK HERE or Tumblr at the top of the page which will also direct you to it.

Well, I hope you like the new layout of my blogs. I know I do! :)

My favorite photo right now!
