A few weeks back I was able to shoot a family session for the Nunamaker family. When I shoot family portraits I try my best to make them interesting. This time I borrowed a sweet old school couch from my friend Cara (who is also a great photographer… you should check her out www.cbyatesphotography.com).

Jake Is 1

March 4th, 2009


This last Sunday I was lucky enough to get to shoot Jake’s one year photos. If you’re a photographer and haven’t shot a one year old in a while then you are missing out on a good challenge. As a photographer I always have an idea of what I would like to get out of a shoot. Yet for some reason one year olds don’t seem to care. I was pretty happy with what we ended up with. The lighting was a little harsh outside but it was getting close to nap time so we couldn’t wait for the sun to go down.

Jake’s dad is Mike Kolker, the DJ that I have posted about in the past. Check him out if you are in need of some DJ greatness.

This is my first post on my new blog. Hope you like the new BIG images. I am still testing to see what size will work best. These may be a little large. I will probably go a little smaller for the next post.


  1. Chris says: Pics too big?! Pshaw, go big or go home! The last pic is fantastic, by the way.

  2. Anna Carson says: Also, the size of that top pic is great I think. I love seeing all the detail!

Cruz McCarty

Cruz McCarty… This guy is destined to be a big time movie star or pro quarterback with a name like that. Cruz’s parents are some good friends of ours, so I was excited when they asked me to do his newborn session. It was a blast, and it was even more fun watching Tyler freak out when Cruz peed all over his multi thousand dollar guitar… “Urine! I see urine!!!” – Tyler McCarty

Here are a few of my favorites from the shoot.
