Kilworth and Co.

So the funny story with this session is we had been planning to do pictures in this great field of flowers that I know of. "Plan A" was ruined due to flooding. So we came up with "Plan B"a different field that has beautiful purple flowers. Apparently they only show their pretty faces the morning! Are you kidding me?! Anyway the whole session still turned out awesome despite the fact that the flowers didn't want to play with us!

Back in Business!

Hi All! Today is great day! The doors of Cooper are open AND I got to have my "Cup of Joe" this morning from across the street! I didn't realize how much I depended on a little routine to keep my sanity.

In case you missed it, I have photos of the flooding and all of our helpers on Cooper's Facebook
Fan page. Thanks again to everyone who helped. We are so lucky to be back so soon! Our prayers are with all of those waiting to get back up and running throughout Iowa.

The above photo is of pins that are available at Cup of Joe for the volunteers. I thought they were so cute! What a great idea.

Purple is SO cool!


I was soooo excited when the Hayes family brought in this purple set of wheels. I never get to photograph big family groups with fun stuff. So that being said, all of you out there looking for family photos. . .call me! We'll brainstorm a cool session for you!

Go Golf




Tom, Sarah and the kids had a fun session at Beaver Hills Country Club where they spend a lot of their free time. I love being able to photograph things that include your family interests!

Hats Off to Us!

Hi all!I wanted to post a couple of nice comments from our favorite people - YOU!

Nicole from our wedding last weekend wrote,". . . my thanks to Karen and Ryan. They did an AMAZING job and all of my friends and family were very impressed. I would recommend you guys to anyone! I hope they had as much fun as we did!" and "The pictures are so wonderful I just wanted to thank you so so so much. I could not have asked for anything better."

From one of our children clients, "I just wanted to thank you both for the outstanding work and service you offer. We continue to be amazed more and more at each photo session. Guess we'll have to keep having kids! Not. =+). J.D.'s pictures were terrific and the collage is going to look great at home."
"I also wanted to thank you for putting him on your Blog. I know those take time to do, but I enjoyed looking through the blog at the other pictures. Not only for the fun people, but to see a great variety of ideas you can pull together. It is worth the time I think to further showcase your work."

THANK YOU! We love hearing from you all! You put the Coop in COOPER!

Jordan & Nicole

Wow! I've been trying to figure out what to write for this group. They were insanely fun! I actually feel guilty for having as much fun as I did and getting paid for it ;-)! You guys are awesome!








Oh yeah. . . I almost forgot. I had to put a photo of myself and my newest wedding assistant Ryan. He rocks!
