Molly + Zack {married}

SoBliss Blog — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 16:47:03 +0000

Finally getting a chance to blog this wonderful couple’s wedding. Molly and Zack had a New Year’s Eve wedding and it was such a fun event! You might remember them from their newlywed session blog post.

There were honestly so many great images from this wedding, that we couldn’t possibly post them all. Here are a few of our faves.

Feel free to leave Molly and Zack some love in the comment section! :-)

Stephanie & Jason {engaged}

What a cute couple! We shot Stephanie and Jason’s engagement session at J&D Farms, which is also the venue for their wedding. It was cool, cloudy, and windy. But Stephanie and Jason were patient and sweet. We cannot wait for their wedding day!

Here are just a few faves from their session.

We want to share a few of our favorite images from an engagement session. Kendra and Chris are very comfortable in front of the camera and with each other so we were able to get great shots. We are looking forward to the wedding at Wills Creek Vineyards!

Zack & Molly – {newlyweds}

SoBliss Blog — Wed, 14 Mar 2012 19:11:31 +0000

Zack and Molly were married on New Year’s Eve 2011. Schedule conflicts kept us from being able to have an engagement session with them prior to the wedding. Instead, we had a newlywed session and were blessed with great weather. This couple is so much fun to work with! A few of the SoBliss favorites:

New look for the blog {and a sneak peek – of course!}

SoBliss Blog — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 01:13:54 +0000

We are so excited to share the new look for our blog with you! We wanted our blog to blend a bit better with our website and brand so we have updated it and we love it. It is still a work in progress. There are a few things we need to tweak (such as the ‘about’ section), but overall it is ready to go!

Please feel free to leave a comment and let us know what you think!

And since we can’t possibly post to the blog without some eye candy, here are a few images from one of several sessions we are working on. Mattie and Dan are an adorable couple and we had a great time with them. We can’t wait for the wedding guys. We know it will fun and beautiful, just like you guys!

We’re back! {with a little sneak peek}

SoBliss Blog — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 01:12:08 +0000

Our website, blog and email have been down for a couple of days but we are back up and running. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused anyone trying to contact us.

Here is a little sneak peek of a recent newborn session, well sort of newborn. We had to re-schedule the session twice so this little sweetie was about 3 weeks before we finally worked out a date. Our specialty is weddings so we don’t really do many newborn sessions. However, it was a nice change in our usual routine (made us think a bit more creatively) and we REALLY enjoyed meeting Gabriella! Such a little sweetie….

Charlie’s Family Session {2011}

SoBliss Blog — Thu, 22 Dec 2011 22:45:09 +0000

Like most folks, I send out Christmas cards every year and some years I just have my kids on there and sometimes I will have our whole family on the card. Family photo time is a particular brand of torture for me. It’s tough being mom while making sure everyone is behaving and looks decent in the photo. It is also tough being the photographer for a family session. Let’s face it, there is some pressure to get that perfect shot! Try being part of the photo AND being the mom AND being the photographer. (I know plenty of photog moms are right now saying, “I KNOW. ME TOO!”) My sessions have generally ended with pouts, tears, and some folks just laying down. And you should see how the kids act. I have actually caught myself yelling, YELLING, at my kids, “Just act natural! Smile! Put your hand down!” Sounds awesome fun, huh?

This was all before I started forcing begging Amy Ross (SoBliss photog extraordinaire) to help me out and be the photog so I can focus on getting my kids to “act natural”. I try to come up with something different and fun for our sessions and thanks to Pinterest I came up with something kooky and crazy. The idea was to have our family do something FUN. While participating in this fun activity, Amy would photograph us and hopefully catch us all smiling and laughing. And well…. acting natural. Not only was this session a complete blast, but I can see my kids gorgeous faces smiling and laughing in the way that I know they can and do when I am not pointing a camera at them. We also have a unique piece of art that will hang on my wall alongside a collage of images from this session.

I cannot thank Amy enough for capturing these images for us. Since she did such an amazing job, my card had 11 (!?) images on it and I had the toughest time narrowing down the choices for the card. For the blog, I didn’t do so well. Lots of images here.

I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!!!

~Charlie

Just a friendly reminder in case some of you have been thinking of placing an order for Christmas.

To ensure you receive your prints before Christmas, all orders must be submitted no later than December 12th. Orders received after that date (this includes December 13 through December 31st), will be available after the first of the new year.

We are also not taking any further appointments until January.

Charlie and Amy are planning to enjoy the Holiday season with family the last 2 weeks of December. We love our clients and appreciate each and every opportunity you have given us to capture special memories this year!

Here is cute little image of Cooper from Charlie’s family session. Amy shot this session, which was used for Charlie’s Christmas card. There were so many fun images that a larger blog post will be coming soon!

Ashley & Chris – {love}

SoBliss Blog — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 18:15:35 +0000

We are so excited to share these images from a shoot with Ashley and Chris Sargent. Ashley is a local photographer and asked if we would shoot a session for them. We call these Love sessions since the couple is already married but interested in having us capture them with the unique perspective we bring to an engagement session.

They are an adorable couple and were so easy in front of the camera. They brought along Paris, their sweet baby, and a few items with sentimental value.

Thank you guys for allowing us to capture these images for you! We had a blast!

Here are a few of our faves from the day:
