Nick, I had a great time photographing you in spite of the fact you ended up at the emergency room. Who knew cornstalks could slice and dice?

Badger Brave JVs finish season of perfection!


The Kinsman Badger Braves ruled the roost in the junior-varsity division of the Ashtabula Midget Football League during the 2009 season.

The Braves completed a perfect season by defeating the Ashtabula Jets, 25-0, in the JV Super Bowl Bowl of the AFML against the Ashtabula Jets on Saturday night at Lakeside Stadium.

(A sports photographer I am not, cut me some slack. It was still great fun.)

Allie (2010 Senior Model)

Sneak-A-Peek of beautiful senior Allie.



Once again...Allie, thank you for your patience. It was an absolute joy to work with you, although I am more than just a little bit jealous of your height and those long legs. You did an absolutely perfect job of picking out outfits for your sessions! I can just see it now...ANTM...I knew her when.

Thanks again for trusting me with photographing such a special time in your life. You were a very good sport about Mill Creek Park and the missing steel bridge.  JUST GO LEFT seems so much easier on paper!

Let me know what you think of your slideshow.
And now, a few stationary photos...





























SK8TER BOYZ (Logan & Landon)







In the midst of great sadness, these two precious little guys added a bit of sunshine. Logan & Landon, I miss your sweet faces! Love to you both<3

Rena (Senior Model 2010)

Rena Sneak-A-Peek
Session I


It never ceases to amaze me, the beauty of the girls of which I am asked to take senior photos. There was once a joke made about me having a bucket full of pretty people that I just pluck models out of when I want to take a photograph. Well, that bucket is beginning to overflow!


Once again, I have a gorgeous model to work with...The beautiful Miss Rena, whose hair all by itself is enough to make you want to hate on her, but you can't because she is just so darn sweet.


Apparently Rena's mom has been standing on her head, waiting for this post, something about "That d*mn Cari". You guys do realize I have a life, right? LOL It is a huge compliment to have people so looking forward to your work that they check your blog every single day in anticipation, and swear at you when you haven't posted their child's photos. LOL Hugs to you all for being my biggest fans.


So here you go Lori (and Jeff). Here is a peek of your little beauty in a way in which I'll bet you have never seen her before.


Rena, YOU ROCKED THE CAMERA and you had the honor of being my first session with my new "baby". ENJOY!!!







A few without motion...




















Thank you Rena, for a wonderful first senior session of the season!

Sweet Sweet Love

Sometimes when going through a group of my photographs, I am moved beyond words. Such was the emotion that poured out of me as I began work on this image of Michelle and her new baby girl, Kendall. The love on Michelle's face, the comfort and security on little Kendall's face and the peacefullness shared between the two of them melts this mother's heart. Thank you Michelle and Joe for letting me share in the joy of your love for this precious little one. Treasure her always.

A New Life

I laid my hands and my heart upon a new life today, not yet seven days old. Her skin pink, her hair gold. Her father Joe, one of my son's best friends. Her mother Michelle, a child of my heart since she was only 14. I watched Michelle love adore this new life she held in her hands and it made my heart swell.

Kendall Rae, you will be loved by many.
