L'Anse Creuse - L'Anse Creuse North High School Senior Photographer

Here's Chase-man.. No that's not his real name but it's what I call him. Chase-man has been around the studio quite a bit the last year...well not the studio so much as it is he's been around me... See that's what happens when your Mom is friends with a photographer - you end up being in all kinds of photo-shoots. But that is a good thing. Poor Chase hasn't even had his "official" Senior Portrait Session yet and I've got a ton of great shots from an outing we did over the fourth of July weekend. Chase-man thought he was going on vacation...little did he know that I packed all my gear and had plans to put him to work while vacationing. It's only fair since he got out of a session when our families were in Florida together. Thanks Chase - and hey, I'll be seeing you real soon...bahaaaaaaa.

I had the pleasure of photographing Steel last week. (Isn't that just the coolest name?) We were really lucky with the weather - it was warm but not terrible and aside from a few minutes of really awful bug activity - everything was great! Steel thought he was going to play the tough guy during our session and while he did for some shots, he totally didn't stand a chance against my knock knock jokes...okay, okay, I didn't break out the jokes, but I did have to act quite goofy to get him to loosen up. It was well worth sacrificing my dignity for the shot. And if you've ever had your portraits at my studio, you know exactly what I mean. Thanks Steel, for choosing Beth Eggert Photography for your session! And for all of you American Idol fans...yes, he does look alot like Casey from season 9!

Happy Birthday to TJ! Yesterday was a beautiful day for a birthday party, especially if you are 2! Little TJ had a great day surrounded by his friends and family and I was tickled to be a part of his day. He may look familiar - that's because just a few weeks ago TJ was here at the studio for his portrait session. Yep, he is still one cute little man! TJ's mom thought it would be fun for the kids, both  young and old, to do the whole dress up silly thing. And it was F -U-N for sure. Not sure who enjoyed it more, the mommies or the kids! Thanks so much for letting us share in TJ's special day!

Well Senior Season 2011 is in full swing and we are booking sessions everyday! Last week we photographed Becka both outdoors and in studio. It was wicked hot but Becka was such a good sport, with multiple clothing changes, hair bands off, hair bands on, lip gloss applications and the audience of young boys watching! Overall we captured some terrific images and I'm really excited to share some with Becka and her family. Once we got inside the studio things were much cooler and no humidity! Becka is such a beautiful young lady. It was my pleasure getting to know her and her mom. Thanks for choosing Beth Eggert Photography for your Senior Portraits!

Meet the Boys!
I thought yesterday was going to be the day. The dreaded day when a one year old bested me. I don't think I have ever come up against such a joyful little runner as N! I just knew I was going to be in trouble. But one look at his sweet blue eyes and I was hooked! Both N and B have just the most killer eyes! B, the big brother, did everything just right..sat as I asked, stayed where I asked, was really really focused on helping me get some great shots during their session ( I later learned there was a vanilla shake in his future!). Now N on the other hand, saw all this open space and decided he needed to explore - and run - and explore and did I mention run - oh and he ran.....A LOT! Poor Emily was the wrangler and I think she needed a nap more than N did by the time we were finished. I think this first image kind of gives you the idea! It was a crazy wild session for sure. But I am so pleased to find that we have many sweet images of both boys and even of few of them together where you can actually see their faces! Thanks Emily, for your patience, persistence and quick feet!

Meet the Liss Family! Oh my, what a session. Little Miss L couldn't quite decide if she wanted to have her photograph taken while I was there last weekend! Almost two year olds are funny - and they definately have a mind of their own. I just love her expression in this first image - it made me laugh out loud when I first saw it. Something about the way she is looking at me, maybe like I'm a few cards short a full deck! Once little miss L settled in, we were able to get some really darling shots. She is such a cutie and I loved her little Matilda Jane outfit! Thanks Ilana and Zach for choosing Beth Eggert Photography to capture your beautiful family!

Meet the boys! M and C were just the cutest things. I love C's red hair, maybe because my own daughter is a red head of sorts. And M had the most beautiful blue eyes! While the day was incredibly warm, we still managed to get quite a few darling images of these little guys. They were such good sports wandering through the park - in 96 degree heat! You know it's hot out when the park is empty except for you and your clients. Honestly, there was one other couple in the park aside from us. It was a tiny bit eerie... Twilight Zone Time...but nice, too, that we didnt' have to worry about other folks at the park. Thanks for choosing Beth Eggert Photography for  your session!

Meet Emily! While she really isnt' a senior, we did her session very similar to one. Emily is an aspiring actress and not only is she a beautiful girl, she is very talented! I've seen her in action and have been super impressed.  We were working on material for her portfolio as she makes her way into the crazy world of acting. I had a great time photographing Emily. You gotta love it when a client totally gets the whole "expresstion" thing. The girl knows how to  talk with her eyes! Thanks Emily, for allowing me to help you on your way. Can't wait to do your Senior Session in a few years!

Meet the Curtis Family! Yes, it was scorching hot and just a tiny bit strange to be almost the only people in the entire park but oh so worth it! Little L was just too cute and so excited to wander and explore a new place - he was a joy to photograph. L just loved my assistant Marie. She was doing a bit of wrangling during the family shots and he thought that was great! Thanks again for choosing Beth Eggert Photography for your family portraits!

Meet the B family! Again Mother Nature held out so that we could get our session in...a bit later than scheduled due to my error but in and successful none the less. And despite the heat, we were able to really capture some sweet images. There is something so endearing about children this age and how they adore their parents. These two are such sweet children and I LOVE the red hair...maybe becuase my daughter is a red head! The B's have a great backyard and we were able to complete their session right at home. Even the bugs cooperated. Thanks so much for choosing me to photograph your family! I look forward to sharing the rest of your gallery with you early nex week.

Meet the Boys! What a cute crew of little fellas and what a challenge to get them all looking at the same time. Poor little L... he wasn't really in the mood for a photo shoot but after a water and snack break he was raring to go. Now W and R, they were both ready from the first moment and they were great sports about changing cloths so many times...stripes shirts, solid shirts, stripe shirts again. I'm so glad the weather held and the ground wasn't completely soaked for our session. It was great to meet all of you!

Well, it has been quite a week this week. Mother Nature finally decided to coorperate a bit and let me get a few sessions in. Meet M and A, two beautiful little girls who were just a joy to photograph. Even though it was a bit warm, the girls were great during our session. Is there anything sweeter than twin  4 year olds?  The park is such a perfect place for photographs...so many different places to choose from. Thanks Jean, so much for allowing me to photograph your girls. I really appreciate you choosing my studio!
