I haven't posted since--when? oh no...OH WOW.. I knew it had been awhile since I blogged but JULY??? <br />

I guess that is when my life started to take off at warp speed.. So sorry :( <br />
<br />
So sorry to my clients that didn't get showcased, so sorry to new clients who might not have seen my newest work.. Just sorry in general. I promise to try harder to update the blog. <br />

Nyla came back into the studio a few weeks later to finish up this shoot and her personality really came out. I love this one. With her arm behind her back, it makes her look like she is guilty of a little mischief! <br />

Holly and her family came into the studio for some shots and then we took a trek to Lake Red Rock which is her husband's favorite place to be in the summer. It was a great time and the kids were adorable. Congratulations on your soon to be little one, Holly and Waylon! This blog post has a lot of images in it because there was a lot of variety :)<br />

The whole family..<br />

I chased this poor little guy all over and even held a few of his rocks hostage until he let me have one good shot of his eyelashes. Holy cow-they were to die for! Don't worry, he was fine after I got my shot. ha ha, bribery goes a long way! <br />

I would love to re-introduce myself to followers of my blog and website if you are a new to Forever Photography or new to me :) <br />
<br />
My name is Kelly Stevens-Comstock, I am married to my wonderful husband Terry and I have three wonderful kids, 2 boys, 1 girl. I have always loved photography. Always! I am passionate about wanting to capture your children just as they are at a particular stage of their life. I let them run and play and be themselves. I am even super silly at the sessions too. I say it's because I want them to be comfortable in front of the camera but in all reality, I just can't help it-I am just a kid myself. :)<br />
<br />
I love making new friends and I love it when clients turn into friends too! Since I started my business, I have watched several kids grow up, from doing their mama's maternity pictures all the way through their first few years of life. When I see you that often, you become part of my family and I love it when your kids take off running to give me a hug when you let them out of your car. It's times like this that I realize how powerful my job is and how incredibly lucky I am to do what I am doing. <br />
<br />
I love warm weather (summer is my favorite time of the year!) I love sitting outside at night around a camp fire taking in the warm nights, the sounds and smells of nature. I think it is paradise! My favorite place in the whole wide world is beside my husband at a camp fire. <br />
<br />
I change my hair color constantly... I love love love experimenting with my hair, from black with purple streaks, to red, to blonde, to all of the colors of the rainbow at one time, I love hair color. I can promise you, it will never look the same from one session to the next. That is the artist in me. <br />
<br />
Anyway, I would love to meet you, get to know your children and your family, and I would love to have you join the Forever Photography family and be part of this beautiful family I have grown to love over the last five years. <br />
<br />
I leave this blog post with a picture my 9 year old daughter took of me a few weeks ago. I was afraid she might be better behind the camera than I am and I might just be right! <br />

I am so sorry for the delay in getting new images to the blog and Facebook! <br />
<br />
Jessica brought her kids in to the studio to do pictures and we decided to go uptown to shoot in the alleys in town. I love the alleys, they are full of color and texture and fun stuff for kids.! Her kids were adorable and they behaved so well! <br />

Mary Catherine and her family were in recently too. I have taken pictures of her son William since he was a newborn, so I was super excited to photograph her while she is expecting the newest addition to their family. I got to see the whole family and update their family picture while they were here. I love this family!<br />

I am often on a ladder, on my stomach flat on the ground, tipped in a certain direction, or something wierd.. <br />
My second shooter, Jana, took this image of me shooting the rings at Holly & Wes Terpstra's wedding last week.<br />

I set out to shoot this weekend's Super Moon, I had been planning the event the whole week--I was so excited, even though I had never successfully photographed the moon in focus with the correct exposure in camera. I loooove astronomy so much, I am passionate about it- I love photographing star trails, the moon was the last thing for me to figure out. So I did a ton of reasearch and headed out to view this year's super moon. I headed out with my daughter and her friend (little Grace) to my location-not a pretty location, just lots of flat land and treeless, but outside the city limits and away from the street lights. I set up the tripod, and looked for the moon in the East-I knew it should have risen, but couldn't see it at all. It was way too cloudy. We waited and waited, the girls thought they were cold so they grabbed blankets out of the car and wrapped themselves in it to view this exciting moon that was supposed to come out. More waiting... More waiting.. I decided to put away the tripod, I packed up the car and looked back up to the sky and noticed an orange glow behind a cloud, almost appearing--so quickly I put everything all back together and we saw the moon for about 3 seconds--LOL but it was BEAUTIFUL!!!! And then it was covered in clouds. But it was so pretty, the girls and I decided collectively to wait to see if it would appear again. And it did!!! I messed around with exposure and bracketing, and finally came up with a formula. Which of course varied every few seconds with the amount of cloud cover over the moon. But it was so worth it!!!!!!</div>

I returned home and captured these from my yard. By that time, the moon was really high in the sky and the orange glow was gone.<br />

They have a beautiful family farm just outside of town with a gorgeous yard with lots of areas to do pictures, so we wandered around the yard looking for pretty light and a place to hide from the c.r.a.z.y. wind that day :) We shot between the wind gusts and got some great images! <br />

This family brought along their beautiful tractor and we got some great pictures. The location was awesome, the tractor was great, the family was dressed in really nice bright colors AND despite the terrible wind out in the country, they found a little place out of the wind so we weren't fighting the wind like crazy while I was shooting the other Van't Sant family :) Win Win Win! <br />
Here are some of my (and their) favorites!<br />

Crystal is due here soon and wanted maternity pictures to show her husband. She got professional hair and makeup done by Alexis Hanselman of Southern Charm Salon out of New Sharon, Iowa. Alexis (Allie as I call her) rocked her makeup and made Crystal look stunning!<br />
<br />
Crystal's blue dress along with the location I chose earlier in the day rocked! I literally drove by this place and was in awe and asked Crystal if she would mind (it is quite public near a busy road) and she was a trooper and didn't mind at all. When Crystal showed me her blue dress when she showed up to the studio, I knew it was a the perfect color and location! <br />
<br />
I will save you the pictures of what I looked like after I layed in a giant nest of cockle burs taking the second image I posted.. It was awful. LOL. But I have to say, I was loving what I was seeing in the camera and didn't care too much!<br />
<br />
Crystal is also one of my Maternity Spokesmodels and is trying to win a big prize based on new customer referrals, so if you know Crystal, ask her about Forever Photography!<br />

I think this will be fun!<br /><br />So, from April of last year.... This is William. I have this image hanging in the studio now, it is one of my favorite images I have taken. I didn't have studio space last year, so I rented space and set up a backdrop stand and lights for a few hours. I say I, but I really mean my clients helped me setup and my husband and kids did too. I couldn't fit the backdrop paper in my car so my husband had to drive it up to the space for me in his truck. I rented 3 hours at at time which gave me time for two sessions and tear down and set up for the day and it was crazy packed time in there. But that builds <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">character</span>--right? :)<br /><br />Oh <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Lookie</span>--even an old watermark. <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">LOL</span>.

Mini sessions are only different from a full session in the amount of time it takes to shoot them and the amount of proofs you get to choose from. <br /><br />Mini sessions take about 30 minutes (give or take) and you will have approximately 12 proofs to choose from.<br /><br />Mini sessions are not available for newborns.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9149269372458510596.post-43856338370694005582012-04-02T18:39:00.005-07:002012-04-02T18:49:19.192-07:00best friends<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Ahh</span>. My muse and her <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">BFF</span>. I needed some inspiration and some fun and to shoot with no expectations this weekend so I asked my muse and her stuck-like-glue <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">bff</span> if they wanted to be models, they both jumped at the idea and were ready to go. I had a location and some things I wanted to try :) But we were crunched for time, so I just ran a curling iron through the girls' hair, put in some hair clips, and we left. The girls had a blast, as did I , I shot at a challenging time of day for me and at a challenging location. I love that some things turned out, some didn't and the pressure of the things that I wanted to turn out that didn't made me even more stubborn-I will try again for those things! And hey, I'm not ashamed to admit that not every idea I had worked out for this shoot. That's what keeps me expanding and growing as an artist.<br /><br />I also tried a different editing style. Very vintage and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">summmery</span>. I played with the haze of the sun and had some fun. I will tell you, I love shooting into the sun. :)<br /><br />My Grace.<br /><br /><br /><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDy5xhJ7anwgO1YSVV8gu56ofiK31UcwxRUftB1U8S1yd9brT97TP2huG6lZevc1D_HACrVKMW7Sj-XNOUaeN2-ThlYN67EDpXIajeKwr_D-wNu3P18nouN6PFg5d4mv7RGcRa0IqJzs-B/s1600/IMG_1235+rs+for+fb.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5726984454252319042" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDy5xhJ7anwgO1YSVV8gu56ofiK31UcwxRUftB1U8S1yd9brT97TP2huG6lZevc1D_HACrVKMW7Sj-XNOUaeN2-ThlYN67EDpXIajeKwr_D-wNu3P18nouN6PFg5d4mv7RGcRa0IqJzs-B/s400/IMG_1235+rs+for+fb.jpg" /></a><br /><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">BFF's</span>.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjK6NK8Cxz0S-mspsAyiImcoLmOzsreh1Ui2Mbj6hQGHUIjRVRcPoL5FPTT5Es2SAWQo3Lq0Z3TT9YgLSI2Rnw9EblYIGMdVg-Usq91NWNheXJzL3q5PfLUY9_YVdRPmQPFNZqO1xM9M1jh/s1600/IMG_1272+vintage+wine.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5726984267961003762" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjK6NK8Cxz0S-mspsAyiImcoLmOzsreh1Ui2Mbj6hQGHUIjRVRcPoL5FPTT5Es2SAWQo3Lq0Z3TT9YgLSI2Rnw9EblYIGMdVg-Usq91NWNheXJzL3q5PfLUY9_YVdRPmQPFNZqO1xM9M1jh/s400/IMG_1272+vintage+wine.jpg" /></a> </p><br /><p>"little" Grace as I call her.
