Police, Fire, EMS FREE Portrait

Jay and I, had been racking our brains trying to think of a way to help during the wake of the tragedy in Newtown and then it hit us! One of things we noticed looking back in our own lives especially being first responders (yep Jay and I, have been EMTs for the past 10 years both in a volunteer and paid capacity) was that we never really had any nice pictures of us together and having put together memorial slideshows we really have noticed that it is so often that families have become so busy that pictures just go to the wayside.
So, with the help of the Bethel Fire Department we will be holding an event where all first responders can come with there families and have a professional photo taken of them completely free of charge. No gimmicks, no nothing, come in and get a digital portrait with the ones that mean the most to you.
Anyways, since I can't be on the ambulance right now because of the baby, this is what we thought we could do to help and give back to those that mean so much to us and do so much for others!

John and Kate

A few weeks ago we had the pleasure of shooting Kate and her daddy John down at the beach. With Kate growing so much everyday John wanted to make sure that he captured some photos of him with his daughter while she is still little. That's where we came in, one of the things that as photographers Jason and I have learned is that when dealing with little ones it is best to let them do there thing in just capture the moments where they are being themselves. It is during those moments that you can capture some of the biggest smiles, the giggles that make there whole body shake and those little expressions that make a person who they are.

Kate already has John wrapped around her finger...

Okay, look at the little spit bubbles too cute for words!!!

Kate is most definitly one of the SWEETest babies, just look at those rosy cheeks and beautiful eye lashes.

I love this picture... Kate's face is priceless!

John is a huge fan of Ohio State University... So Here Kate is showing us all her Buckeye pride!!!

By the end of the shoot, Kate was definitly ready for a little nap, just look at how she finds that perfect place on Daddy's shoulder.

Thank you so much John and Kate for spending the afternoon with us!!

Slide Show for Big and Little Squeaks

Kevin and Little Kevin

So last monday Maggie and I had the pleasure of doing a photo session with a good friend/crew chief/ captain! I know, I know Kevin or Squeaks as he is more formally known is a man that goes by many different titles! Not only is he a son, a husband, an awesome father, but he is also an EMT, and a Fire Fighter. Which led us to the inspiration for this photo shoot. Squeaks' son is already looking as though he is going to be following in his Dad's foot steps every time he visits his Dad at work he is always wanting to jump in the driver seat of the ambulance or play with the sirens in the fire truck! So Maggie and I met Squeaks his wife and little Kevin at the fire house for an awesome photo session. Little Kevin even came totally prepared with his own turn out gear it was soo cute...

so we were able to get on to the fire trucks and take some great pics!!

We had such a great time shooting little Kevin and his Dad!!! We can not wait for Kayla's photo shoot at the ambulance core!!!
