precious baby Charley

Mom and dad brought baby Charley to the studio a couple of weeks ago for her first portraits and we had a great time working with them. Special Delivery was the session they chose so we worked with baby Charley to create that portrait first…

Because Charley was doing so well, we moved on to several of our other newborn sets to capture a few more lovely portraits… (baby Charley will be featured in our new sessions catalog)

To round it out, we had learned from mom and dad during our presession consultation that they are both Harley Davidson riders — as are we!!!! So we created a special newborn set just for Charley around a Sportster 883 fuel tank. Charley now has the Harley “experience” and is ready to head out on the open road — when she gets just a bit older. Can you tell that she’s thinking, “I love this Harley, when can I have my own?

Our thanks to Kim & Jeff for trusing us to create the first portraits of their daugher Charley. We just love working with newborns… Proud mom is the branch manager of the Pennstar Bank – Great Bend. Stop over and tell her how absolutely precious her daughter Charley  is!!!!!

Byron spent a week recently in Dallas, TX with Gregory and Lesa Daniel, owners of Gregory Daniel Portraits, studying advanced mixed media portaiture which combines portrait photography with painting to create heirloom giclée canvas wall art. Florida artist, Gregory Daniel is the country’s leading mixed media portrait artist, his art hangs in mansions across the country. Gregory is a Fellow of the American Society of Photographers and also holds the Master of Photography and the Photographic Craftsman Degrees from Professional Photographers of America.

Mixed media giclée canvas portraits must not be confused with the inkjet prints that some photographers call their “giclee” option.
