I'm looking for a family to model for me

Next week I am going to be working on a project for the City of Noblesville's new tourism guide/brochure. I am going to be going around town taking pictures at various points of interest. I am looking for a family to take along with me to model for me when needed. If you're available next week on Tuesday and/or Wednesday please let me know ASAP. Thanks!!!!

And thank you to Christen Q. for contacting me for this awesome project!!!!

Congratulations!!!

To Lane N. and Hailey C. or winning Spring's Cutest & Coolest Kid Contest!!!!

I was away all weekend at a woman's retreat and was amazed to come home Sunday evening to see how many votes there were! Wow! Thank you everybody for participating in the contest. I'm sorry that voting was a little crazy. This is the first time I've used a blogger poll and wasn't quite sure how it was going to run. Thanks for hanging in there!

I will be contacting the winners via email shortly to schedule your session!!! Can't wait to see you!

Happy First Birthday To You!

This sweet little girl just turned ONE and I got to photograph her party! How fun!!!! She's just the sweetest little thing. Here are some cute ones of her eating her cake. Happy First Birthday Shay!!!

Now these are some CUTE and COOL kids!!!

Are you ready to see some VERY cute and cool kids??? I got so many wonderful entries that I don't know how all of you are going to vote!!!

So here's the rules...Please vote for only one entry in each category and only vote ONCE A DAY. No ten bazillion votes in one day!!! Let's play fair boys and girls!

Spring's Cutest and Coolest Kid Contests

I'm trying something new....I've decided to hold two Spring contests: Cutest Kid and Coolest Kid!

I'm looking for kids in the age range of 3-6 ("Cutest" contest) and 7-10 ("Coolest" contest), boy or girl, and who has a very stylish wardrobe (hee, hee). You can submit a recent photo of your child (can be just a snapshot...nothing fancy) to my email at capturedbykristenphotography@gmail.com by March 15, 2009 and I will post the pictures on my blog with a poll to vote for the winner.

The winners of the contests will receive a free photo session (a $75 value) at a set outdoor location, a free 5x7 print (a $10 value), and 50% off all other print/CD prices!

Come on, you know you have a little cutie or a cool kid that would be PERFECT for this contest! Go ahead and enter their picture!!!! You know you want to......

****Be on the lookout for a TWEEN/TEEN contest in the near future too****

Precious Peyton

How do I get so lucky to get all of these gorgeous blue eyed kids in my life? This is my "niece" Peyton. Her mom and dad our our best friends. They FINALLY moved back from Florida and I am overjoyed that we get to raise our kids together. Peyton turns two (already...sniff, sniff) in March and this is my favorite picture from her session.
