Bidwell Park Family Session: Ian and Ashley and James

I met Ashley a couple years ago. She is super talented -- I really do appreciate her so much. She is the owner of The Powder Room, downtown and just among the nicest people you will ever meet. Her and Ian always make us feel so at home. They are the kind of people that we love having in our life.

We did an early morning session a couple weeks ago and I wanted to share a few of their photos. Their son James, is just so cute. They love the park and James loves his bike. Which Kenny and I both agreed, is one of the coolest bikes we have ever seen.

Thank you so much Ian and Ashley. We love you guys and can't wait for baby number two to arrive :) Much Love friends! K and K

Isn't James so cute? Not a care in the world...

I just love these two! They are such good parents and amazing people :)

We all need a little sugar every once in awhile...

Happy Halloween friends! I am not sure if I am more excited about handing out treats to the little kiddos tonight or the fact that I will get to eat the leftovers. Either way, I made sure to buy Reeses and maybe some gummy bears too... And because Halloween is basically about sugar consumption, I had to share these few photos of Carsten enjoying his first lollipop. Isn't he the cutest?

Have a fun evening. Don't eat too much candy, although we probably will... and don't forget to brush your teeth :)

Chico Portrait Photorapher: Alli...

I am finishing up this family's photos today. But for now, I just had to post these two of the stunning Alli. She is a courageous woman and so beautiful. The way she serves others doesn't go unnoticed. Each day she pours so much love into her hubby and three little ones while also working full time as a flight nurse at Enloe. So today's post is just for her. Thank you for serving your family and the tons of people around you so well. I am blessed to know you. So blessed.

Much Love, K

You are gorgeous Alli and yes, I love your style...

Chico Portrait Photographer: The Many Faces of a Child

Kids are the best, huh? When I saw this set of photos, I thought it has to be a blog post. It shows how quickly things change within a matter of seconds. And in some ways, it shows the array of emotions that come with our ever changing lives. So here's to Ethan, who's emotions run deep just like all of ours. Thankful to capture the wondrous spirit of a child -- something we all should aspire to be more like.

And if my blog seems a bit empty lately -- I am taking some time to work on bigger projects within K Stone Photography and some personal projects as well. I love blogging, but is definitely the off season for us. With that, I want to take advantage of some extra time to invest in relationships and bigger projects. Look for blog posts, but not everyday for just a little while.

Thankful for so many of you who follow our blog. We are blessed to have you in our lives!

Oh yes, and Ethan, I'm not sure you could get much cuter...
