Senior 2011

Am I a slacker or what? It seems like this blog only gets updated every 6 months. Anyways, I've been doing a little shooting lately... with my camera, of course. I just finished a session with a senior from Arkansas High. Most of these photos were taken in downtown Texarkana. I will be offering a "Last Minute Senior Special" for those 2011 seniors who are slackers, like myself. Email me for details at kelli@kelliharrisphotography.com!

Sometimes, Life Gets In The Way...

My first year teaching has been overwhelming... I love the kids, but it's crazy! I'm taking an Arkansas History course and preparing for my Praxis 3 this semester, and on top of that our school went through a scholastic audit, an ACSIP review and an IB authorization this year. Let's just say it was a rough year even for the seasoned veterans. I'm looking forward to next year. It should be a little less hectic.

For all of you who have tried to contact me and it took me weeks to get back to you, I'm sorry. I will be booking weddings this summer but not until after my Praxis 3 assessment on April 6th, and I will only be booking a limited number of weddings this year.

I did manage to get out this week and do some spring pictures of a few lil cuties, including my own. Thank goodness for spring break!

Class of 2009 - The Procrastinators

Has it really been a month since I posted? Geez, I am so behind! And it doesn't look like I'll get caught up anytime soon. I am swamped with sessions for the senior class of '09 trying to get their senior photos done at the last second. Here are a few from a senior session in downtown Texarkana:













It's hard to choose a favorite from this session. Brittany is just beautiful and we found so many great locations downtown.

Seniors of 2010: book your sessions this summer!

The Traveling Tutu

I participated in a group on Flickr called "Me, You and the Traveling Tutu." Photographers signed up and the tutu has been making its way down the list. What luck that I got the tutu the week before Valentine's Day!

This is my little stinker. She was less than thrilled about wearing the tutu, but I'm not above a little bribery.




And here's my darling cousin, Indie. She didn't protest about the tutu, too much.



I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day and I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the journey of the Traveling Tutu.

It's Been a While

Wow! I have certainly fallen behind on my blogging. The holidays were hectic, as usual. I didn't do nearly as many Christmas photos this year because I just didn't have the time. I did do a quick session for my friend Kim and her adorable little guy. He's one of my favorite subjects to photograph!



The new year has brought lots of new clients my way. A great deal of my weekends have been spent behind the camera. It's been very busy, but lots of fun, too.

The new year has also brought some new endeavors for me... I'm going to start officially photographing weddings. I've got my first wedding booked for March with lots of other inquiries for this summer.

I'll be posting again soon with plenty of new pictures and some details on wedding photography.

A new baby in the family...

My cousin, Jennifer, is expecting her first baby. I'm so excited for her and her hubby! I know they will be amazing parents. She drove down from OKC last weekend for her baby shower and maternity photos. She looks amazing, just see for yourself...
