Fall QuickTakes- October 1-8th

It's never too early to get your fall QuickTakes scheduled! Looking for a few snaps at a discounted price? This is the ticket :)

If you don't know what QuickTakes are, they are 15 minute sessions for $50(plus tax), and include 10 images per session, and all sessions include 1-8x10, 1-5x7 and 8wallets.

Fall QuickTakes are our most popular because of the fall colors AND using the images for Christmas cards. Here are a few Christmas card images we have used Quicktakes for for our clients..

This a 5x7 Folded card. The Hileman's wow their family & friends with a sparkling image on Pearl paper every year. They always get compliments on how beautiful their family is from their Christmas cards!

I'm showcasing these cards because if you schedule a QuickTake and also order 1 paid set of cards (any size, any paper) at your session time, you will get 10% off your second set of cards!

Get booked for QuickTakes as they will go fast! Especially with this deal!

{Emily & Ryan} | Love Session

I've never shot a love session for a girl who I am about to shoot a Senior session for! There is a first for everything, though and Emily and Ryan were the perfect people to make that happen :)



My ultimate favorite from the entire session!







Thank you, Emily and Ryan! Cannot wait for your Senior session!

{Abby} | Funky Senior Photography

I can relate to Abby. I think she and I share a deep love and understanding for Christ and how we view His love. It's my favorite part of Abby; even more than these gorgeous eyes!



I didn't ask her if I could do this, but here is a poem she posted on her facebook that I fell in love with :)

REACHING OUT

I wrote you a letter, but you didn't write back

I called, but you didn't answer

I walked by, but you didn't recognize me

Forgotten

I waved, but you didn't wave back

I knocked at the door, but nobody came

I shouted, but you didn't hear me

Ignored

You told the truth, but no one believed

You had many friends, but no friends at all

You showed up, but nobody else did

Alone

You wanted to speak, but you were forgotten

You cried, but you were ignored

You tried to run your life, but you ended up alone

Broken

You called, and I answered

You shouted, and I heard

You handed over your life, and I gave mine

Saved

Abby has an incredible skill in writing. She's very taleneted!









We had such a great time shooting! Abb, good luck in all the decisions you make in the future. I really really hope that you pursue the call to ministry. You have a gift that can only be from one place. Youa re beautiful and incredible and I am praying for a future that takes you to great heights :)



P.S. GORGEOUS makeup by Amanda Painter!

Dear God,

Lord, I love you. I love you with all of my heart and soul. I am blessed for you to be my Father, and for giving me life into the family I am beyond words blessed to have.

God, I have been on an emotional roller coaster. I have given you my troubles, and you have gladly carried them for me. I have pounded my fists in anger, cried in mourning, sang with joy at the triumphs and even through the sorrows. I have been given strength from you that not a person could touch. You have shown me grace in the difficult times and given me mercy when I feel pressure to perform when my mind and body is physically exhausted. You, and only YOU, are who I know will always be there when I need a hand to push me forward, a guide to steer me in the correct direction, and the motivation to go on when I feel like a part of me has died. God, YOU, and YOU ALONE are the only one who could take my pain and bear it for me.

God, I know what you felt when you sacrificed your son, as I am sacrificing my father to disease I hate. I have never been angry with you, and even though you allow me the freedom to be angry with you, how could I be? 29 years of a father who has gone over above and beyond to care for me, love me, and stand by me when at times all I did was push him away. My parents have been my constant all of my life. At times, I wonder how lucky am I to have them as parents. Especially my father. My dad has taught me so much, as well as my mom. They are an inseperable team. They are like Peanut Butter and Jelly. I think that is the hardest part for me other than watching my girls see my dad sick, is watching my mom put to reality "In sickness and health". God, YOU HAVE BLESSED ME! You have truly blessed me.

Lord, tomorrow when we go see Ryan's doctor on the 6th anniversary of his final fight, please allow July 14th to become a miracle day. Please do not allow my little family anymore pain on that day. Please make dad's life the one that turns July 14th into a day of celebration. Please give Dr. Bhiriay wisdom and precision to see between the lines and allow a miracle to happen for my dad. PLEASE.

The tears you have allowed to fall on my cheeks have been of sorrow for a time. Please allow these tears to be ones of joy tomorrow. God, I have never wanted anything more in my entire life than for my dad to experience his wife, his children and most importantly his grandchildren for a longer time on earth.

If this is not your will, I will accept it. I have learned that unanswered prayers are doors opening for a better plan in your timing. I am on board with your timing God. I will accept it, because I am not in control of your will. I am in total service to you, and will do what is asked of me. I trust you with my dad's life. I know you are holding him in your strong hands and that you will not let him suffer. You are a kind God, who loves his children. I love you as my heavenly father, my guidence, my heart.

I love you, Lord. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

{Kelsi & Luke} | Indiana Engagement and Wedding Photography

I've known Kelsi for a long time. We have become great friends and I am so happy to be the someone she chose to do her wedding images :) PRESSURE! ;) Luke, you are pretty awesome, too. Sorry we beat the crap out of you on this shoot. And for the record, I thik Lyric has a crush. Just sayin.



Kelsi is also a very talented photographer and an even better friend.

I cannot wait to go to Chicago to shoot her bridal session. I don't know what I am looking forward to more, cracking up all the way to Chicago or actually taking the pictures ;)





I love ya, Kels! I'd call you honey, but you would probably slap me. But then I would just chase you with a sticker. ;D hahaha!!! In all seriousness, Congratulations, Kelsi & Luke! I hope your lives together are what fairytales are made of :)

{Michael- 3 years old} | Funky Children's Photography

Meet Michael. He just turned 3. He has enough sweetness to give you a toothache!



His mom, Kim, brought him to play with me at the park and we soaked up some Ohio sun. See, Michael is from Colorado and he was here to celebrate turning "The Big 3" with his family :)



I don't know who had more fun! I couldn't stop smiling, and he had me cracking up the whole time.





Thank you, Michael! I hope you and mom had as much fun as I did!!

who are you? Seniors 2012 {Funky Senior Photography}

This has been in the forefront of my thoughts for a long time- Who am I? When I recieved my images from Stephanie Schweller of every.day. photography, I caught a glimpse into how much our photos capture a personality. It's not that I didn't know that before, it's just that it was brought to the forefront when I looked at those images. Do I dress that way everyday? No, but I should! It's who I AM. It's what I see in my mind's eye of who Jamie Temple truly is. It has inspired me to make this next collection of Seniors shine.

This year's subject is:



I want to bring forth all styles, all personalities, all that makes YOU, YOU. I love when I get a bohemian girl or guy, but I also absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE when I can see a persons particular style shine through so much when someone KNOWS it's their OWN. The photog. cliche' saying, "Work it!", yeah, we mean it! We want every part of you to show through.

Without further ado, here is the images from the amazing and ecclectic group of dazzling seniors that represented me for this years Jamie Temple Senior Marketing Campaign.









Connor, with the gorgeous eyes :)


Renee, with the amazing smile :)


Alex, with the million-dollar personality, and crazy awesome hair ;)


Kristen, with legs a mile long and vintage beauty :)


And, best for last, Rebecca (or Becca, to me), the most gorgeous and beautiful girl and friend I have been blessed to know :') I'm going to miss you!!!




Um, HOT.


I love these...


So festie...


AND THEEEE PICTURE.. just for you boys!
