School Pictures

2008-10-20T17:17:00.002-05:00

It's school picture time here at Tak Photography.
I thought you'd all enjoy seeing how hard our teachers work to make our little ones look good!
It's not an easy task!

Closed ...

2008-09-16T08:25:00.000-05:00

What a crazy week!

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all those in Munster and Hammond who are experiencing the bulk of this flooding. My heart is so sad right now.

Living only a few blocks from the river, we have moved my entire studio/office to our upper level. We were waiting on the river to go down a couple of feet before moving it back down. I'm thinking that time will come sometime today.

Until then, Tak Photography will remain closed. It is my thought that we'll be back in business Thursday, 9.18 at 10am. If that changes I'll update this as soon as I know.

Thank you for your patience during this trying time.

Class of 2009

2008-08-12T19:48:00.004-05:00

Congrats to A. our first '09 Senior of the year.
Good luck to you on your final year of school.

The Power's Returned

2008-08-06T23:14:00.003-05:00

Power is back & now we have the internet back!!
Yea!
I felt bad complaining as my sister had a foot of water in her basement and my mom was without power until just a couple of hours ago.
But ... I need internet!

Everything will be uploaded ASAP if it already isn't there.

Thanks for your patience!

I absolutely adore this picture.
Check out the tongue!
She didn't like getting her hands dirty so she went with the next best thing.
Just stick your face down there and lick.

Isn't this an awesome cake?
Her mom made it using a big cupcake pan.
I'm seriously going to have to get me one of those!

My Hubby

2008-04-19T10:42:00.000-05:00

He's a good part of the reason I can do what I do.
He's Tak Photography's tech person.
Without Shawn there would be no website, cool flash proof viewer,
or away sessions (he keeps the kids.)

Thanks honey for all that you do to make Tak Photography great!

PS - This is my Shawn -- big glasses and hood.
We tell him he looks like the unibomber!

Customer Appreciation Days ... The Pics :)

2008-04-16T10:52:00.001-05:00

My day started with my first little subject.
People ask me how long I've been in business.
I stop and think about how old little L. is and then I can tell you.
A HUGE thank you to L.'s mom, M.
You make my job easy and FUN!

I've photographed these twin's brother for a couple of years. What a joy it's been to see these two grow!! I've enjoyed getting to know their parents also. FUN people!! PS - This is also the fish bowl that was tipped. I was truly amazed that little K. didn't even cry when all the water hit her. I appreciated K.'s parents who didn't let a little ;) water ruin the photo session.

Little F. first came to me at a Portrait Party this past Christmas.
It was a joy to get to photograph his one year pictures.
His parents win the award for coming the furthest to get pictures!
Continuing with the One Year Pictures little M. came in for the first time.
I enjoyed meeting her and seeing her toothy grin.
I'm looking forward to photographing her again this summer at the beach.
The Walter family came in with their new little one.
I've had the opportunity to photograph little T. when he was first born.
It always amazes me how big babies get!!
This was my first opportunity to use our new backdrop.
This family also came from a Portrait Party.
I was thrilled to do an updated family portrait for them.
Here's another little guy I've had the pleasure of photographing since he was a newborn!
I've appreciated his family very much.
I LOVE little S.'s eyes. We had a blast at this session.
All it took for giant smile was a round of popping out from the camera.
Easy!
Guess what?!?!
Three of my favorite mommas are PREGNANT!
K. is one of them!!
CONGRATS!!

Customer Appreciation Days

2008-04-12T18:27:00.000-05:00

First of all let me say -- Titles to the posts freak me out.
Today's was pretty easy but most of the time I feel rather blah about such things.
I guess that's why I'm a photographer and not a novelist.
I continually go around and see photographs in my mind.

The blue sky with a tree in the frame just so ...
My son when he's watching TV and his eyelashes are illuminated by the glow of the TV ...
The bear at the zoo peaking from behind the rock.

Words -- Not so much.

But, I digress.

Today was the beginning of Customer Appreciation Days
here at Tak Photography.
No pictures quite yet but I wanted to say that I've had a blast today.

It all started with my longest customer. I'm sure you've seen her as she's in a lot of my literature!!
We had an entire fish bowl of water tip over. We had the cleanest cake eating session.
It's been a fun day!

Want to join in the fun?
There are available spots this week!!
Check out the website for more details.

Just an FYI!
This blog's very first post was about Customer Appreciation Days last year.

Happy one year blog to Tak Photography.
I need to find some cake!!

My Family

2008-04-11T19:25:00.000-05:00

When you are a photographer it sometimes gets a little tricky to take a picture of yourself.
Most of the time when I want a family picture I set the camera up on my tripod and get everything set. I then have my sister, Bethany, push the button.

Well, with this picture, I had a problem.
Bethany (and everyone else is my family) was in the picture.

My sister Lisa was in town and we wanted a family picture of ALL of us.
Time for the stand-by ... the camera timer.
What fun it was to push the button then RUN into place.
Of course, it did make us all smile.

We had such luck with the timer that I continued using it for the above shot.

Ahh! Relief - It felt good to have the camera back in my hand again!!

This is a rare photo!!

My mom, who is quite beautiful, isn't a fan of the camera.
She's actually been the reason I have great empathy for those reluctant participants who come into the studio.
But this photo -- perfection!Another miracle picture!!!
These three haven't taken a good picture together in forever.
My mom has been wanting a mouse pad with the three together.
FINALLY!

New Life

2008-04-09T19:21:00.000-05:00

S. came to me with just weeks left before the arrival of their first little one.

I love maternity portraits.
I'm looking forward to taking pictures of their new baby.
Any day now ...
Hang in there S.!

Continuing Easter Days

2008-03-13T12:07:00.000-05:00

You may recognize these two.
I've taken their pictures already this year for T.'s newborn pictures.

More bunny love!Hard to believe this guy is only 3 months!
Isn't he the cutest??

I LOVE this picture!
I love how no matter what kids are honest.
I'm thinking the flowers didn't smell too well!

Little A. & T.
A great combination!

More Easter Days

2008-03-13T12:04:00.000-05:00

Little A. came in to continue our Easter Days.

Our resident bunny has gotten a lot of smooches this season.
Little A. actually likes bunnies so much that she actually had bunnies in her Christmas pictures!

Mommy Post

2008-03-11T12:13:00.000-05:00

I've been following this blog -- http://cfhusband.blogspot.com/
for quite a while now.

Basically the story is this -- Tricia married to Nate has CF.
Right before getting listed for new lungs Tricia found herself pregnant.
Feeling it God's miraculous plan for their lives they, against many doctors recommendations, decided to go ahead with the pregnancy at great risk to Tricia.

Fast forward to January. Gwyneth Rose is born VERY early!!
Both Tricia and Gwyneth are at Duke Hospital.

There was a challenge from another reader of the blog to list what we mom's wish for Tricia.
Basically a list of what the blessings of motherhood that we've experienced.
I thought with most of the readers of this blog being Mommy's themselves you may relate.
Feel free to add to the list in the comment page.

Here is my list:
*Only wanting Mom when they skin their knee (even at 10 yo!)
*Words tumbling out of both of their mouths (at the same time) when I pick them up from school.
*Watching one relate to the other a funny story.
*Enjoying them interact with their Daddy.
*Listening to Nathan sing praise songs with all his heart at church.
*Getting to hear, "Ahh, Mom" whenever either is asked to do something.
*Brushing Kia's hair in the morning.
*Reading any book and having their absolute attention.
*Bedtime prayers.
*A rare kiss from Kia.
*A cuddle from Nathan.

Easter Days -- Off to the races

2008-03-08T10:50:00.000-06:00

It's Easter Days here in the studio.
A time for little ones to come and show off their pretty Easter Wares.
Our first session of the event started us off right.

Here's little A. showing not only her pretty dress but our prop bunny.

Her sister C. with her beautiful(!) red hair shows us her dress along with our resident bunny.

Now it's little J.'s turn! Look how great he's doing.
Sometimes little J. doesn't like to get his picture taken.
But he even has a smile in this picture!!

Oops ... Spoke too soon!!
Apparently J.'s now finished with pictures!!

I promise no little kids were harmed in the making of this photo!!

Nine Month Old

2008-02-27T13:24:00.000-06:00

Little M's been in a couple of times in the last couple of months.
For this session we did body parts.
It's a little harder to get part pictures of a nine month old.
They move a whole lot more than a newborn!!

Isn't he the CUTEST?!?

5 Month Old

2008-02-27T13:19:00.001-06:00

Little D. came in for 5 month old pictures.

He was at a perfect "grab your feet" age.

I adore when babies lay on their backs and grab their feet.

I think it's mix of awe that they can get their feet that high and
pure cuteness!!

I'm back

2008-02-22T16:29:00.001-06:00

Thanks for your patience during my extended "sick leave".
I couldn't believe how this flu took hold of me.

This thing was very contagious as Keyanna fell ill on Sunday, my niece on Monday, my mom & husband on Wednesday, my sister on Thursday and Nathan on Friday.
It's whipped through our family with only my brother-in-law left to get it.
I figure it'll be any day.

SICK

2008-02-19T11:45:00.000-06:00

On Saturday at my son's birthday party I started getting that "I'm not feeling too well" feeling. After the party, whoo nelly, it came on full force. Fever, chills, the works!

We made it to church on Sunday yet by the time we arrived home me and the couch were best friends. Unfortunately my Keyanna started the "I'm not feeling too well" feelings and took up the other 1/2 of the couch. She's longer than I remember!

Yesterday morning Keyanna woke up good as new ... me ... not so much. This thing has wiped me out something fierce!

So, again, I apologize to the two people who had to be canceled! I'll call for rescheduling very soon.

I'm going to take it easy today and then by tomorrow be back to business!!

Being sick is not fun!

I thought about posting a picture of what I look like right now -- this is a photo blog after all. But I didn't want any of you to find yourselves suddenly coming down with something! :)

Happy Birthday, Nathan!

2008-02-16T02:01:00.000-06:00

Seven years, nine months ago I found that that Shawn and I would be blessed with another child. We desperately tried for another child for about a year so we were overjoyed! About 6 weeks into my pregnancy my doctor called and said that I had some complications and the possibility of carrying this child to full-term were remote at best. Lots of scary moments followed but on February 16, 2001 my Nathan was born into this world weighing 9 pounds, 10 ounces.

We loved him from the moment we layed eyes on him.A few months into Nathan's life we discovered that he wasn't developing as other babies his age did. He didn't have the muscle control. A trip to our pediatricians office got us an appointment with a Chicago Neurologist with an early diagnosis of Muscular Dystrophy. The catch ... the soonest we could get into the Neurologist ... three months. Oh, were those three LONG months. Our wonderful, wonderful Neurologist (when the day finally arrived) took one look at our son and said, "No, I think it's Hypotonia." I had no idea what this was but I'd take anything over Muscular Dystrophy! I grew up watching the Jerry Lewis telethons during Labor Day weekend. I knew what MD was! Dr. Swisher said that while we have some major work in our future he thought Nathan would be "caught up" with his peers sometime by his 10th birthday.

Major work did follow. Nathan had physical therapy three days a week for many years. In fact, part of his therapy was riding a horse. He'll never remember but he had a great time on Dude!! He graduated out of the program at 3 years old with caution.

It's estimated that Nathan is now 25% or so behind his peers. Something that doesn't bother him in the least! He's our miracle boy.

His name Nathan Paul means God's little Gift.
He has been that and more to us.
Happy birthday to my favorite little boy!

Happy Valentine's Day

2008-02-14T20:28:00.000-06:00

Hope your day is great with those who you love and who love you.

New Year Baby #2

2008-02-07T16:17:00.001-06:00

Yeah for New Year baby #2. Little M's mom said that she delivered around 8am just beating that all important "First Baby of the Year" by ONE baby.
Too bad I heard there were free diapers involved.

I was thrilled to have little M. in the studio.
I've had the wonderful opportunity to photograph her cousins quite a bit.

The cake continues ...

2008-02-04T17:37:00.001-06:00

This great guy is another one of my Newborn Memories Members.
From newborn to this his one year session he has been adorable!!
You may have seen him on the blog before.
He's the one who gets to be photographed with his dog.
Happy 1st Birthday, C!

Let's start the cake ...

2008-02-04T17:34:00.000-06:00

Little S. is the start of quite a few 1 year sessions this month.
Lots of smiles, lots of cake!
I've had the privilege of following S. from the beginning of her life.
Happy Birthday S.
May God bless you through all your years!

And the award for Best Dressed ...

2008-01-31T10:01:00.001-06:00

goes to little O.

When she comes in for pictures her mom brings 1/2 her closet with her!
YEA!!
I love clothing options -- Plus, all of these are SO CUTE!

I personally wish I had O's mom because then I know I'd be much better dressed!!

Happy Valentine's Day

2008-01-31T09:57:00.001-06:00

This little one was one of my first customers!
Her mom plans to bring L. in once a month for '08
and create the most awesome Christmas Card!!
I love moms who think ahead!
Plus, who wouldn't want to photograph this child?
She is the greatest!!!

New Year - New Life

2008-01-19T20:23:00.000-06:00

Back in October I had the privledge of getting to photograph this beautiful Momma's tummy.
Now little T. has arrived safe & sound.

Everyone is thrilled -- including little sis A.

Happy 1st Birthday

2008-01-16T12:30:00.001-06:00

It's little C.'s FIRST birthday.
I've had the privledge of following C. from newborn to 1st birthday.
She's been a delight!!!

Back to Work!

2008-01-11T12:59:00.000-06:00

Yesterday was "Get Back to Work Day"!
Since being back from vacation I've been working on getting caught up in the office.
Yesterday for the first time in '08 had an opportunity to take pictures!

What a great way to start '08 -- with someone born on 1.1.08!

What I did on my Winter Vacation

2008-01-11T12:24:00.000-06:00

We enjoyed a few great days lazing around as a family.
We watched all the cheesy Christmas Movies -- Shrek the Halls, Frosty the Snowman, etc.
The kids' favorite part was probably the presents Christmas Morning.
After driving to Ohio to spend time with my Mom's side of the family
we drove to Florida to be with my older sister.
We took three days and two nights to get there.
It was rough -- five hours a day in the car :)
We made up for it on the way home and did it all in one day -- sixteen hours.

At the hotels my Mom took one bed and I took the other.
We kicked the kids to the floor.
They didn't mind -- in fact, at home they request to sleep on the floor as a special treat.

Once we left Indiana my Nathan refused to wear a coat.
He decided that it'd be warm as we were on a Southern Vacation.
When I talked to Lisa Christmas Day it was 78 degrees and sunny.
When we arrive it was a cloudy 48 degrees.
Being from the North we still thought this quite warm.
By Wednesday it was a HIGH of 38 degrees.
I made Nathan put his coat back on!
And we determined that my sis had been in the south too long.
She had on FIVE LAYERS and thought she was going to die with frostbite.
Us Yankees took it in stride.

This sign at one of the local businesses cracked me up.
Doesn't this look like the warmest spot on earth?
Not so!
Of course, Nathan absolutely refused to wear his coat on the beach.
Plus, they both took their shoes off and were walking in the water!
So that was our Winter Vacation.
We were happy to get home to our cat, oh and Daddy!
He missed us while we were gone but did enjoy that the house stayed clean.
He's the neat freak (NOT ME)

In Memoriam

2007-12-14T11:58:00.000-06:00

Larry Wiggins, my dad
June 14, 1947-December 15, 2005

When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Happy Birthday

2007-11-20T10:35:00.001-06:00

Today is my Mom's Birthday!
Happy Birthday, Mom!

I had to search for five whole minutes to find a picture of my mom.
Well, let's just say a picture she wouldn't kill me for posting.
I've found that I either take really embarrassing shots of my mom or none at all.

Irregardless, here is a picture of my beautiful mom at her favorite place on earth!

It's Christmas Time

2007-11-13T16:53:00.001-06:00

I was privileged to participate in another successful Portrait Party on Saturday.

Thank you so much to everyone who attend and to Meg C. for hosting and of course her mom for opening up her home to us.

Portrait Parties are wonderful way for all of your friends to get their holiday pictures!
Our holiday parties are so popular that I've run out of available dates until January!

Let me know if you're interested in a 2008 Portrait Party.
As it turns out they fill up fast!

Coming Soon ...

2007-09-17T20:23:00.000-05:00

Frosted Pictures

I'm working on doing some samples of my new Frosted Picture line.
Once they're ready to go I'll start introducing them to my customers via their proof webpages.
I'm looking forward to putting this together in the very near future!!

He's Three

2007-08-30T21:41:00.001-05:00

Guess how old this guy is ... well, he's three.
I've had some awesome luck this week with kids showing their age
via their fingers!

I Feel Your Pain

2007-08-27T22:26:00.000-05:00

Our church is having everyone come in to get their pictures

taken for our new church directory.

Our appointment was this evening.
I've forgotten how stressful family picture day is!
I'll be sympathizing more now with the stressed out moms that come into the studio.

I don't know what I was thinking but I didn't plan anything for us to wear.

I was out this afternoon frantically shopping at Old Navy for matching outfits.
Then everyone had to take a shower.
(Insert Nathan's voice here, "I just took one two days ago!)
Next we had to blow dry Keyanna's hair.
I had to put on make-up. Blah!

To further annoy my family I couldn't go get our picture without one here first.
After all what kind of photographer would I be without documenting our family showered.

So we made it to our appointment and our picture turned out fine I guess.
I look a little ... well ... large?!?
We had a male photographer who didn't quite understand hiding the flaws.

Here is the one we took before leaving. I like it better.
You'll notice I know how to hide my , umm, tummy area.

Please note - the following pictures were all taken here in my studio.
I can't show you the one taken at church because it's copyrighted.
I believe in copyrights ... plus, I just look large!

My New Favorite Picture

2007-08-23T13:14:00.001-05:00

This is my new favorite picture of all time.

Of course my favorite picture changes often.
But, for right now, this is the one.

I kinda manipulated this image by adding their pooch in post production,
but the little guy did sit with "his brother" later in the session.
For this, my favorite image, I just wanted the legs of the parents to be included.
Kids (& pets) are fun, aren't they?

Tak Family Moment

2007-08-23T13:04:00.000-05:00

We interrupt this Studio blog to bring you some moments from my family.

The inspiration of my KIA Package has just turned 10.
Wow ... I know what "they" mean when they say time flies!
Being 10 apparently means you are mostly grown.
Shawn and I just dread the hormones!
Anyway, Kia received her first flowers in honor of her 10th birthday.
Her favorite color is blue!We also welcomed a new member into our family this week.
This is our girl, Aggie.
She is loving and affectionate.

Christmas Greeting Cards

2007-08-13T17:41:00.000-05:00

I've had several clients call in the last couple of weeks inquiring about Holiday Greeting Cards.

I thought that even though it's only August -- Christmas is just around the corner.
I've spent some of my off days this past week designing new Greeting Cards
and tweaking old designs.

This is FUN & Addicting!So far I'm at 31 4x8 cards and counting.
Take a look and let me know what you think.

First Birthday

2007-08-08T19:53:00.000-05:00

This little guy holds a special place in my heart.
He has the same name as my little (growing up fast) guy.
My kids find it fascinating that another would share their name.
He had a great birthday party here in the studio.
But then he was finished!

Summer Vacation

2007-07-27T10:21:00.001-05:00

Many people have asked where we went on our summer vacation.

The answer is ... Camping at the Indiana Dunes.

I found this tent at the Goodwill in Lansing/Munster
and thought it'd be great fun to try out "tent camping".

Everything went really well the beginning of our vacation!

We enjoyed sunsets at the beach and nature hikes
but our last day there it rained & rained & did I mention rained!
You'll notice a lack of pictures of the rain.
I was too busy calming frantic children
and attempting to save our belongings from being soaked.

Yet, all in all I'd say it was a wonderful vacation.

Also, just in case you're thinking we completely roughed it ...
my son found an electrical outlet when his Gameboy DS ran out of charge!
Whew ... I bet you were worried!

Beach Days, part 1

2007-06-12T20:41:00.000-05:00

This past Friday started our Second Annual Beach Days.

We were blessed with an extremely mild week-end which was mostly clear.

I love this event as it brings out many families and it's a more casual session
so I get to see how different members of a family interact with each other.
One of my favorite things in life is watching Daddies play with their children!

For June 23rd, 24th & 30th Beach Goers -- BE WARNED!
The hill to get on and off the beach is a doozy!
If you're at the end of the day take pity on my legs (& lungs)
and pretend like you need to go slow!

Cuddly Newborn

Every once in a while a particularly cuddly newborn comes along. Such is the case with this little guy.He just laid back and allowed us to pose him however we wanted.
Kinda makes you want one of your very own doesn't it.

It's that time of Year!

It's so much fun to do senior pictures!!
Being the end of the year I've had quite a few seniors come in for their photos
these last couple of weeks.

It's always interesting to do photos for seniors one day and then do newborns the next.
The parents of these children are the same yet vastly different.
The same in that they are so proud to show you their child and let you know their current accomplishments.
Yet, vastly different, Newborn parents are giddy with excitement over what the future holds and all of the time they are going to get to spend with their child.
Senior Parents know that their time is almost to an end. It's time to send these children into the world and see what they're made of. They know that their time together is now reliant on their child remembering to call.

Seniors

I LOVE Senior Sessions!

Usually the senior is willing to try anything. So all those good ideas that pop into my head are put to good use.
This morning I did an awesome Senior Session at Deep River in Hobart.
Plus this one was extra fun because this senior could not have been sweeter!
I know he's going to do great things with his life!!
