Reminder: Time Flies!

If you're interested in having KaBloom Studios photograph your wedding, don't sit on making the deposit -or the date may no longer be available when you do! (You can always make the deposit by visiting the 'clients' page on the website, and following the link to 'make a payment')

2009 is booking up fast. If there's a date you're interested in... let me know sooner rather than later!

PS: The same is true for family shoots in time for the Holidays. There are only a few openings left in early/mid November. If you're interested, act soon! :)

Happy Tuesday!

State Fair Fun!

Emir and I took a few hours off tonight to pay homage to the state fair before it moves to Grand Island. So many colorful and fun things to take pictures of! Here are some of my faves from tonight....

I think this is my overall fave!

Our food intake tally for the night was: snow cone ($2.50), gyro sandwich ($6), kettle corn ($2), funnel cake ($6), and dippin' dots ice cream ($5). Total: 2,000,000 calories (give or take!)

Emir was bummed that his gyro didn't come on a stick... ha ha!

Married! Karla + Eric

The sun shone down on Columbus, NE today for Karla & Eric. Their wedding day was a laid back celebration a lifetime in the making. Here's Karla seeing herself in the mirror for the first time as a bride.... I love her reaction!

Fluff that slip ladies! :)

Obligatory shoe awesome-ness. :)

Assistant in training.... ha ha! :)

Karla's tenderness was quite charming. Tears of joy only added to her gorgeousness.

Luvin' those earrings....

Those are some serious rings!

The church was spectacular!

See what I mean?

What a great idea! The 'signing of the marriage license' was actually part of the ceremony. Fantastic!

This was the little flower girl... stealing a moment to check in with her new little sis...

I love Grandpa's laugh!

Karla's family has a tradition of wearing goofy hats at wedding receptions. They were quite the cast of characters!

Check out the attention to detail on these kisses!

So.... this is actually the wallpaper in the bathroom.... er.... but isn't it cool!? (It kinda matches the upholstery of the chair in the 'shoe shot' above... don't you think?)

Karla & Eric's reception happened to take place at the same time as Nebraska's first game of the season. Being true Nebraskans, the TV wasn't far from the dance floor...

Guests cheered the Huskers on to a 47-24 victory over Western Michigan.

I love this shot!


Karla & Eric.... thank YOU for inviting me to be part of such an important day in your lives. It was a true treat!

Random Fun-ness (Is that a word?)

Ralph has been an invaluable addition to the team this season. Here he is on the job earlier this week.... (note his torn and tattered bottom side... poor baby is working hard!)

He makes a great hanging' spot too....

I gave in and bought THREE new covers for my shoot sac recently.... sometimes, you just have to spoil yourself... right? :) The ivory/black was getting old, I think the yellow with polka dots is my new fave. :)

I shot this one-handed, without looking, while holding Ralph with my other hand so he wouldn't blow away and leave poor Courtney stranded! Ha! Not bad, eh?

Mary snapped this pic of me on top of the ladder in my studio earlier today... ha ha!

On a completely random note... check out this spider web Emir and I came home to the other night.... it was HUGE!
