Wacky Williams : Tight Rope Walker

I've been gaining an interest is Illustrative images, and Fine Art lately.   Mostly, I just love creating with Photoshop!  My 5 year old helped me out.  She's going to be my model for way too much now... the boys are at school, and an idea pops into my head, and she's the only one around to work with.... but, I guess it was that way with the oldest kiddo at a certain point too... I found this idea on some social media ad, and loved it.  It was a simple process, but had an amazing result!  Enjoy my High wire girl!  Share if you like!

Averie : Miracle

Precious little Averie came in yesterday for her 1 week old photos ;)   She was a photographer's DREAM BABY.  She slept through the whole session, posed well, and her beautiful petite features gave her brownie points.  ;)  Her mommy made the most adorable hats....  So perfect!  I am so excited to see this little girl grow over the next year or so for her other sessions!  Welcome to the world, little one!

Wacky Williams : Invisible Family portrait

Invisible Family Portrait... done a bit better then the one 2 years ago :)  Our kids are older, much more fun, very active, and were able to help lug all this equipment to the photo site, for only a candy bar!  We got off with cheap labor.  Maybe I'll print this big and hang it in that frame.... LOL!

Drone

This summer I bought an Autel Robotics Quadcopter and it has been a blast!  I have super nice quality aerial photography, video, and just a lot of fun with it. :)  Here's my 'paradise'.... my 3 acre farm.

Cam & Brynn : 1 year

These littles are 1!  Cam and Brynn are moving all over the place and just loving their new found freedoms!  These kiddos are so much fun to watch grow!  How amazingly different their personalities are already at such a young age! I'm super excited to see them next for their 2 year session and see even more personality, attitude and development :)

Keaton : 2017

Keaton is an amazingly talented High school senior with such a great attitude for formality!  We squeezed in a mini session in the studio to grab a few of the necessary shots and then had some fun with his mad tennis skills :)  Zeeland East has yet another good kid in their school. :)

Wacky Williams : Harvest Combine

I can't say there's a single time a combine drives by when I'm not completely amazed at the size of those machines.... (not to mention the cost!).  The field behind our property was being harvested, and the farmer left his combine in the field on a Sunday.  I knew he'd be back for it on Monday morning, so we hiked out to snatch a 'farm kids' photo in front of this massive piece of farm technology.  The sunset held a naturally beautiful sky, so it didn't take much work to get this shot looking pretty dynamic.  The harvest is almost done by us, and that means the snow is only shortly behind.  We've been blessed with a gentle, dry and warm fall harvest....  I'm hoping winter is kind and gentle as well :)  Enjoy!

Wacky Williams : Cadence is 5

My BABY is 5!  This cutie pie is as tom boy as they get.  She loves ninjas, batman, Hermione Granger, kitties, her stuffed dog "puppy chow", Jesus, and picking fights with her brothers.  She cracks us up, and can make our blood boil.  She is not what I expected a baby girl to be like, but MUCH better! She likes to be called "Cadence" not "Cade".  She will do about anything for a piece of candy, and seems to hate actual meals... (Snacks are becoming scarce in our home since we have to remove them to discipline ourselves to eat healthy because of this sweet-tooth-little-sneak)  She is one of many blessings we are so grateful for, and couldn't imagine life without! Happy Birthday, my little tom-boy princess.  If you know my girl, you've probably seen everyone of these faces. LOL!

Wacky Williams : Wide mouth Fishing

During the summer, I usually am forced to take a break from making Wacky Williams photos, since I'm so busy with everything else!  Weddings, photoshoots, horses, gardens, and vacations, take up most of my summer minutes.  As winter comes and my photoshoots are slowing a bit, I have time to think, breathe, and become creative again.  

As I learn more about creating posters in Photoshop, I thought.... why am I not applying this to wacky Williams!!!???!!!  I'm not entirely sure where this idea inspired from, but I thought it was too fun.  Although I completed this image before I left for Iowa, I just finished an amazing class in Iowa with Ben Shirk.... A world award winning photographer from Iowa.  I learned to light photo collages, and composites better, and give them a more realistic feel.  

Make sure you share, post, re-post, and tell others about anything you've enjoyed about my Wacky Williams series.  I'm hoping to continue it into 2017 with new ideas, and new photoshop techniques!!!  Someday, maybe the Wacky Williams can go viral! LOL.... well, maybe we don't quite need that, but hey, share it if you enjoy it, and want to see more! ;)

Wacky Williams : SPOOKY

I'm not a Halloween fan, but anytime there's a cool photo opportunity and an openly celebrated holiday, I'm a fan of making an image to document our family.  I found this idea online, and made it my own quick one evening, after our own family finished a photoshoot.  It qualifies for a Halloween post, so it was worth it :)  Enjoy!

Van Duinen : Family Love

Meet the Van Duinen Family!  A bundle of energy and joy!  These kiddos were so much fun, and oh. so. CUTE!  We met at Van Raalte Farm in Holland, and soaked up more of the fall colors as they are slowing being blown off the trees.   The day was perfect and beautiful for photos, and I'm honored to get to meet new families that put their trust for photography needs in me.  It's the best feeling when they have fun during a session, not knowing what on earth I'm actually capturing.  Enjoy a few teasers of another beautiful family!
