Twin Photos are AMAZING!

Twins are so amazing.  You get a built-in best friend for life.  Lucky!!!!

Personalities come in all shapes and sizes…and twins give you a moment to stand back and really appreciate how quickly those personalities develop.  Believe it or not, these guys came in a little shy, but had each other to rely on!  Plus, Jenn, as the assistant was able to figure out their tickle spots pretty quickly. 🙂

With every great photo session here at Classic Kids, it’s just so hard to narrow down to my favorites.  That’s why a set of four is so much fun!!!! 

Newborn Announcements should be special!

It all starts with an incredible moment.  A new birth, a bigger family, and boundless buckets of joy just overflowing with love.

Now, let’s be honest.  The Facebook post comes next.

This moment is your baby’s introduction to the world (and family and friends and high school buddies that seem to like all of your posts even though you haven’t talked to them in years)!

Let’s be serious.  You can do better than the iPhone pictures you attach!

Take a moment to give yourself and your baby a proper introduction. With a photo like this:

The better the photo, the more simple the design of the announcement, whether it be online or in the mail. This is a new line of designs done by our very own team to really showcase the clean, simple beauty.

It’s your time to share your perfection, do it right!!!!

Captured Expression

For those of you that wonder what is REALLY so much different about what we do at Classic Kids Photography, let me tell you why we love our job SOOOOOOOOO much.  

We love your kids.  

No, I mean it.  We truly LOVE your kids!

We work, and monkey around, and make silly noises, and sweat, and laugh, and tickle and squish, and help—all to bring out your little nugget’s personality.  And we don’t stop at one photo.  We want you to have ALL the different facets of their smiles, pouts, giggles, and silliness.  We won’t stop until we are satisfied.  

I know that this means that your choices are tougher at the proof viewings…but it’s also why we sit down to help you decide.  You’ll never be stranded or left feeling overwhelmed because we won’t let you leave with something second-rate.  It’ll be the BEST one if it’s only one…. and well, if we end up falling in love with nine?  You get a blog posting. 🙂

This little darling still brings us such joy months later.  We love her and she brings us so much happiness–and these photos will do the same for you.   I think the difference in all of our work is the love.  I’m pretty sure you’ll all be seeing the sparkle now in our love.

Album Cover by Classic Kids

We haven’t seen these boys in a while, but these photos still stand out to me!

I’ll call them the Classic Kids band.  This is their album cover.

Clearly with photos like these, they’d immediately go platinum.

I imagine their type of music would be very hip-groove-rock, and at some point on the album there would be a KILLER rock-ballad to make all the girls swoon.  

The group shot just reminds me so much of a cool band photo.  Think drumsticks instead of lollipops and then you’re there.  LOVE!  It shows all their personalities in one moment.

Ready for Summer

It is TIME that the weather turns in our favor.  In protest of the incoming snow tomorrow (it’s March, for crying out loud!)…I am posting a favorite photo of mine from the Hamptons and trying to encourage Mother Nature to follow my lead.

I call this one “Sun Dance”  ……..and I’m hoping it keeps the snow away.

And Baby makes Five

It’s no secret that we can’t help but make friends in random places.

We’ve met you, our lovely friends and clients, in chit-chatty places like Starbucks lines…cool spaces like Kidville…charity events at movie theaters like HelpUsAdopt.org …from having parties for “Mom’s Night Out”…from referrals by people like you…at a store like Giggle when shopping for nieces…and I could think of so many more!

So when ABC’s Good Morning America called us for an interview…it was not surprising that we made friends right away.  And we couldn’t take photos with Paula’s pregnant tummy without having her come back to see the new life she brought into the world.

We were lucky to get to know her whole amazing family and capture quiet moments like this that could just go ON and ON forever. Three weeks old and already a star.

We met the proud siblings that fought over who would hold him…

…we saw dreamy smiles…

….created silly poses (p.s. this pose is NOT PhotoShopped)……we used Dad’s loving arms for soothing…

…and we didn’t want to breathe to spoil moments like these!

All in all, it is a rare treat to share special moments with our amazing families.  We cherish each and every second.  It is a gift to be a part of a family history; to create heirloom portraits that will live on your walls for a lifetime or longer.

Stop on in the studio to meet us at anytime!  We can’t wait to meet new friends.

Sweet Sibling Love

We’ve known these lovely kids since Big Sister was only 8 months old.  It’s crazy how time flies these days.  It’s amazing that they grow so fast…they giggle so sweetly…and they love each other so much.  We feel so lucky to be a small part of their family history.

It’s a party!

Good Morning America!

It’s not every day that you get interviewed by a national news team. In the midst of our crazy holiday season here at Classic Kids, Good Morning America came to our studio to give families some advice on taking the perfect photo for the holidays.

That adorable family had some great photos from the photo session to use for their card! Boy oh boy did we have fun!  Thanks to Paula Faris for a great interview!

Somehow they got my maiden name, so my dad was excited to see Schneider again.  🙂

 

Pets are talented kids too!

Some days are more eventful than others here at Classic Kids.  It’s true.

This beautiful Pomeranian pup in his Mama’s arms seems so sweet, little and happy that you would NEVER guess what his hidden talent is!  Think….. America’s Got Talent would want his “ACT” on it’s show! And could probably win the whole thing!

See the video snapped while the end of the shoot was happening to see JUST which karaoke song that this little puppy has chosen to try out! He is…after all…a VERY photogenic little subject!

Just another day in the life here at Classic Kids.
