Lemon Drops Photography :: Baby it’s cold outside – The R Family

Baby it’s cold outside – The R Family

Jenica Lemmons — Sat, 20 Dec 2008 21:06:16 +0000

I met the R family out in Kelso for a fun (and REALLY cold) family portrait session. They are old family friends and Mrs. R is quite the photographer herself. We have traveled the world together as our husbands were both in the Army together. We were stationed in South Korea at the same time as well as in Hawaii. My middle son (mr. I) is 10 days older than her oldest daughter Miss N. My tiniest son (mr. D) is 8 days older than her Miss K. How weird is that?!!!

We’ve already decided it’s going to be a pre-arranged marriage for both of them since we already like the in-laws. Mr. I kept talking about Miss N, so we think they might decide to get married on their own anyway. Wishful thinking, right?!!

Anyway, they were adorable and quite the troopers when the temperature was only 20 degrees outside. Thank goodness for hot chocolate bribes

Studio Photos – The “G” kids

I met the G family at their house in Kelso for an in-home studio session. Normally I do outdoor photos for kids over six months, but after three days of non-stop rain, it just wasn’t going to happen! So we set up shop in their living room.

It was crazy trying to wrangle the three of them to get photos, but amazingly we managed. They seemed to have a good time, even though I tortured them with goofy faces and crazy sounds. All in all I think it was a success!

I hope you enjoy the preview!

Thomas – Kelso High Senior 2009

Jenica Lemmons — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 21:22:41 +0000

I met this young man from the Kelso High class of 2009 out in Rose Valley for his senior photos. He grew up out in Rose Valley and his family knows a lot of our family. It’s such a small town!! He’s a captain on the football team for the Highlanders. I graduated in the class of 2000 and it’s hard to believe it’s been nine years since I was in school there at Kelso High. My how time flies!!!

We had a good time hiking around near the Coweeman River. It’s a beautiful place. So quiet and peaceful. I’ve done a few sessions out there and it’s always such a nice background for photos.

Thomas was a great sport for having his photo taken for two hours. Thanks for putting up with me!

I hope you enjoy your preview!!

God’s beauty…

While at a family session in Kelso today I had a break while they were changing, so I took a moment to take some photos of these gorgeous flowers. The family had the most beautiful backyard and I could have spent all day photographing there.

Flowers aren’t something I normally photograph but it was nice to do something different for a change. I’m constantly in awe of the beautiful things that God has created. One of the reasons I love being a photographer is I am able to try to capture that beauty (even if only a small part of it).

These flower photos are for my bestest best friend, Angie. I miss her dearly and am sad that she lives so far away. I love you my long lost cousin. Hope to see you soon!!

Family session in Centralia…

I met up with a fellow photographer to do her families’ photos up in Centralia, Washington. It was a quick and fairly easy commute for me. She wanted pics of her and her family before her brother went away in the military (and they hadn’t had pics done in four years together.). I know what it’s like to not have photos when you’re always behind the camera. I have my family session this next Monday and I’m excited to finally have a pic of the five of us together. We don’t even have a single snapshot of us all together.

Anyhoo… this family was a hoot. I can’t believe how much fun they were. Normally when I do older families I get a good maybe twenty minutes with them. This time they were willing to do whatever. They were incredibly patient and well behaved.

I think they were well trained.

I had a blast and I hope they did too. Here’s some favs of the session…
