Constant Reminders

It seems that wherever I go and whomever I speak to, the conversation somehow turns itself into the topic of my son-to-be. Even on this blog, you might have noticed, I talk about him constantly! Am I turning into a sappy parent before I’m even a parent yet? It feels like it. Here are three of my favorite portraits from a fun session I had with an 11 month old boy. All I could think was, “I’m gonna have one of those in January!” The very thought of it is so terrifyingly exciting it makes me want to cry, catch the tears into a jar, mail the jar to the Bureau of Land Management with a note saying, “Take these tears and plant a strong tree in my name…”
Seriously though, I am so excited and nervous for this kid that’s about to be my responsibility to feed, clothe and tell lies to just for my own amusement. I can see it now! My boy walks with me in the zoo and pointing to an animal, he asks, “Daddy? What is that?”

I reply,”What is that? Well, that’s called a stewtinsky! Stewtinskies  breathe fire, poop gold and live under your bed in the summertime.”

Wait! Wait! I’m foreseeing something else! Yes…it’s coming to me! Ah-hah! I see…I see my wife…mad at me for telling the boy lies…weeks of sleeping on a couch…maybe I shouldn’t mess with this kid? :)

Our top names at the moment are: Owen, Hayden, Corbin. LEAVE A COMMENT AND TELL ME WHICH YOU THINK IS BEST OF THOSE 3.

What will YOUR family portrait be like this time around?

Zion National Park is one of my favorite places around, especially in the fall. It’s a perfect getaway from the city hustle and bustle. Zion is also much less visited in the fall times so it’s very serene and relaxing. We will be in Zion National Park on October 29th and will be accepting only 5 families to join us for family portrait sessions. Call us now to schedule your “Portrait in the Leaves.” :)

Nate’s Summer Movie Burnout

***OUR FAMILY PORTRAIT SPECIAL YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR IS AT THE END OF THIS POST ENJOY!***

The summer is over before it began it seems like. This summer I think our main activity for fun was seeing movies…lots and lots of movies. So, just for fun, here are a few of my thoughts on what we saw over the passed few months.

1) FRIGHT NIGHT

I’m not gonna lie, I enjoyed the heck outta this movie for some reason. Maybe it’s because I genuinely enjoy horror movies or maybe it’s because the 1985 original Fright Night holds a special place in my subconscious or maybe it’s because I have a secret man-crush on Colin Farrell (don’t tell my wife…meh! Go ahead and tell her. She loves the man more than me anyway. :) ). I just can’t put my finger on it. The more I think about it, the more I think it’s because the movie had a good atmosphere due to the music. I actually love movie soundtracks and I really love when a movie has good music with an actual theme to it. Over the past few years, movies seem to have gotten lazy with their music and the majority of them just have filler music that is just noise in the background, never meant to be enjoyed on its own. Ominous tones, bass and lack of unique style from the composer is all movies have offered lately. Fright Night, however, had an enjoyable theme that built up tension. I enjoyed it quite a bit.

2) CONAN THE BARBARIAN

Wow, two remakes in a row! I went and saw this one having the intention of laughing at every dumb line, cheesy battle scene and ridiculous special effect the show could throw at me. I ended up surprised at how much I was entertained. Was it the best movie ever? Absolutely not! What it did do was show a lot of fighting and a lot of action. Why else would anyone go see it? It could have done without the nudity and sex scene and this gem of a line: “I live. I love. I slay. And I am content.”  Really? That is easily the dumbest line I’ve heard in a movie this year but my wife and I both agreed that we could take the idea and run with it by selling new craft decorations for home. At long last, the “LIVE. LOVE. LAUGH.” crafts that adorn every home we visit now have some friendly competition. Just look how Kendra and I have changed up our own home! :)

3) Rise of the Planet of the Apes

One might think that the apes taking over the world idea would be old by now but then again, vampire movies are still around so what is wrong with an old idea? This movie was well done. Good acting. Good effects. The only thing I can never get passed with the “apes” movies is that no matter how smart those apes could possibly be, humans have weapons and lots of them. POW POW POW, the apes are dead and mankind keeps eating chimp burgers. Total movie time: 10 minutes. Good movie though. :)

4) We also saw X-Men, Captain America, Cowboys and Aliens, Horrible Bosses, Bridesmaids, and a few others. The end… oh what?! Like you were gonna read all these reviews! :) 

Ok, now to the good stuff! Our early bird family portrait special1 See below! Give us a call! (702)809-9763.
