Daddy & Me
Love that this session was all my husbands idea and vision. Glad I could capture it for him. This year my son has really taken an interest in hunting and it was great to document it. Love these photos and they mean a lot to our family.

Because You were there too!!!
Everyone knows how important it is to document life, capture memories for our families because the years are fleeting. You need to be in the pictures as well.
So you don't like you photo taken? Neither do I!!! Get over it! Get dolled up so you feel great, it will help you want to get in front of the camera. No matter what you look like your kids wont care. They just want to know who you were, what you like and what you looked like at 20, 25, 30, 30, 50 and on. Also they want to see you interacting with them in photos. Do it before its too late, time is not guaranteed. Photo's remind us of loved ones once they are no longer with us and of those great times we once had.
Need ideas how to take self portraits? Here are some tips.
1. Use a Tripod
Not necessary item, but definitely makes it easier.
2. Choose your setting, then your settings
Prep the area you will be shooting. Be sure it is not cluttered. Pay attention to the light and
cameras vantage point. Set your aperture, ISO, Shutter & White Balance.
3. Pre Focus
Very Important step. Have someone or something in frame where you will be, set focus, change
to Manual Focus to lock the focus. The Shoot
4. Close Down
Use a smaller aperture then you normally would if were behind the camera. This will help ensure
everyone is in focus. (5.6 is a good starting point)
5. Use a Remote &/or the timer
This will allow you to sit relaxed and get the shots you want. An there's no running to beat the
shutter! Take series of photos to show interactions.
6. Don't Always be Serious
Have fun! Make faces, let kids pose/come up with ideas, try new things. Just be sure to have fun!
They don't even have to be elaborate photos. Use a point and shoot or cell phone and do the whole arm extended group shot. As long as you are together in the photo that's what matters! So get out there take some photos and enjoy making memories.
Another option is to hire your favorite photographer and have them do the work for you and then you can just enjoy the process and end results!!!

Copyright - Why is it important
Everyone always hears photographer and many other artist talk about copyright infringement. Do you know what it means? Or that something you can break copyright without even realizing it?
What is copyright?
Copyright is a legal concept, enacted by most governments, that grants the creator of an original work exclusive rights to its use and distribution, usually for a limited time, with the intention of enabling the creator of intellectual wealth (e.g. the photographer of a photograph or the author of a book) to receive compensation for their work and be able to financially support themselves.
Copyright is a form of intellectual property (as patents, trademarks and trade secrets are), applicable to any expressible form of an idea or information that is substantive and discrete. It is often shared, then percentage holders are commonly called rightsholders: legally, contractually and in associated "rights" business functions.[citation needed] Generally rightsholders have "the right to copy", but also the right to be credited for the work, to determine who may adapt the work to other forms, who may perform the work, who may financially benefit from it, and other related rights. (www.wikipedia.com)
Ok so that's the formal definition. Here it is in lemans term. You can not copy, reproduce, alter or change any image in any way with out written consent from the creator. Basically no changes or printing without permission.
So you are probably saying well if I have a session and buy a CD what Can I do with my images. With each photographer it is different so be sure to have them explain it. KRP Photography NEVER gives a copyright release to anyone which means we still own all photos. However we do give a print release. What is the difference? Copyright release means you will own the images not me. Print Release means I am giving you permission to print photos but not alter.
Here is an example of what is included in a Print Release:
To Whom It May Concern: The bearer of this notice (“Bearer”) has purchased high-resolution digital files from his/her photography session with KRP Photography. Bearer is hereby granted permission by KRP Photography to reproduce the images and make an unlimited number of prints, for personal use only. This permission applies worldwide. Bearer agrees that he/she may not use any KRP Photography images for commercial or editorial purposes, or enter any KRP Photography images into competition without the express written permission of KRP Photography. KRP Photography retains the copyright to all images, per USC Title 17 (US Copyright Law).
Copyright
and Licensing Notice: KRP Photography

Photos cannot be altered in any way. The images that are being provided
to you are licensed to you for any reasonable personal purposes, including but
not limited to: printing, copying, emailing, and web publishing. Your license

to: advertising, stock photography, print sale profits, or resale of any
nature. Your purchase of the original files releases KRP Photography from any
liability due to loss or damage of the images, and also releases KRP
Photography from any obligation to maintain copies of any digital file, image,
or photograph. You hereby grant to KRP Photography the right to use and publish
images and photographs taken at your photography session to further promote its

Make his Heart race this Valentines Day - NSFW
Valentines Day is right around the corner. What better gift for your significant other than some sexy boudoir photos.
What is boudoir photography you ask.
Photography that is typically shot in a photographer's studio or luxury hotel suites, it has become fashionable to create a set of sensual or sexually suggestive images of women (and occasionally men and couples) in "boudoir style". The most common manifestation of contemporary boudoir photography is to take variations of candid and posed photographs of the subject partly clothed or in lingerie. Nudity is more often implied than explicit.
There are two options for boudoir photos, 1 take them yourself or 2 hire a professional. Both ways you can get some great images.
First of all you will probably feel a little awkward taking boudoir photos at first. This is natural, most people don't walk around partial undressed in front of a camera. Just relax. Make sure you have a few hours to your self and go all out, get your hair and makeup (put on much heavy then you would think is acceptable) done so you feel your best! Some people may even enjoy a glass of wine or two before they start to help with the jitters.
Be prepared to put in a lot of time, take a lot of photos and be very patient with your equipment and most importantly yourself. This is not easy to do yourself, but you can do it.
Equipment Needed:
Tripod (or a friend or professional photographer)
Camera
Remote/Timer
Room with little clutter and fabulous window light (doesn't have to be a bedroom)
Music to help you relax
Bottle of Wine LOL ;)
What to Wear:
If you want to look glamorous you have to play the part
In realty, very few people look great in just a bra and panties. Instead, go for a bustier, chemise, a slinky cocktail dress or other forms of lingerie that might suit your body type a bit better than just a bra and panties. You can also wear something fun, like a sports jersey from your significant other’s favorite team, or even just his business dress shirts and tie or just the tie :). Just remember most boudoir is not done Nude, you can wear as little or as much as you are comfortable with.
Don't Forget about accessories:
Accessories totally turn a good boudoir photo into an unbelievable boudoir photo.
Start with a killer pair of heels, or boots.
Nylons of course – but gloves look great too.
And go for a big chunky necklace and earrings.
Editing your photos:
First adjust your exposure
Then your white balance
You can increase saturation to enhance colors of your clothing

Canon 50mm 1.8 Lens Review
I got this lens for Christmas this year and was excited to use it for a session. I previously had one, but it was stolen so it had to be replaces. I usually shoot with zoom lenses so it was a little of an adjustment to shoot with a fixed focal length lens. It is a very light weight lens so great for walking around. Also a great lens to start with for getting used to the fixed focal length.
Pros:
Very Light
True to eye - closest to what you see naturally
Affordable - average price $100 on Amazon.com
Sharp Images - Take beautiful photos
Nice Bokeh
Cons:
Body is plastic.
Overall a great lens and I highly recommend it. Here are a few photos take with the 50mm lens.
