School is starting back and the summer is almost gone, but we do still have a limited number of senior session times left, so call us today in order to meet your yearbook deadline!

Last Chance...Negatives!!

We have been selling our negatives (1990-1999) for about the last year now. It is so hard to discard of these when you know that they could need to be reprinted in the future... but we are simply out of room! If you or anyone you know would have negatives from 1990-1999 call us!!! The absolute cut off date is August 1st for 1990-1993 after that date we will discard ALL negatives from these years. We would hate for you to miss out!! :(

Fishing with Daddy

In this session we captured father and son enjoying one of their favorite pastimes together. What a great way to preserve this memory!!

Will

This handsome little guy is Will, we love the worn out look of his overalls with the rustic bricks in the background. Not to mention, he is just too cute!!

Awaiting his arrival...

We love the look of this image, and the mom did a perfect job finding a light blue wrap that she wanted to use. This is a precious remembrance of her pregnancy that she will be able to look back on with her new baby boy!!

Samantha

This image is from one of our wildflower sessions from this spring.
What a beautiful print of a beautiful little girl!

The Simpson Grandchildren

This family portrait was taken as a surprise for a very lucky Grandmother.
We know she will just love her portrait of all of her grandchildren and will treasure it for years to come. Her children did the session for her birthday because the last portrait did not include the two youngest grandchildren...now her family portrait is complete!!

Ava Grace

This adorable baby girl is another one of our 2nd generation Letson Babies!
We photographed her dad when he was a little boy and Doug even went to school with her granddad! I love this art print that Doug has created of her, the pink border really adds to the sweet little girl look of the image.

Walker Reed

This little guy is Walker Reed, at his 4-year session. This location is extra special because it is on the family farm. Now is the perfect time for a outdoor session. It is not too hot outside and all the new growth is green and beautiful.

Kelly expecting with baby Greta

We have so many mommies come into the studio that wish they would have had a maternity session. This is such a special time in your life as you await the arrival of your little miracle. If you are even considering a maternity session, just give us a call...we can show you different options on clothing, locations and find the type session that would work best for you to create a special memory of this blessed time.
In the image above is our Daughter-in-Law Kelly, she is due in June with our first Granddaughter!

Trey

This sweet baby boy is Trey. He is 7 months old and his grandmommy brought him in for one of our whimzy wednesday sessions. These sessions are available through the end of May.

Simeon

This sweet little one is Simeon at his 6 month session.
He has the cutest smile and he definitely kept us entertained!!
He is the youngest of 4 babies and we are blessed to have photographed them all!!

Samuel Bryant Letson

This image is from Sam's two year session...he is our oldest grandson and we can't believe he is already 2! The gun he is holding was a toy that belonged to his mom's daddy!

Ben & Harris

These cute little boys are Ben and Harris...both of the sets were so cute we just couldn't resist putting one of each. The double rocking chair in the first image is a family heirloom so it makes the image even more special!

Madelyn

This precious girl is Madelyn, her mommy used to work here at the studio, and as always they are so lively and fun...We loved this one of Madelyn, the brown looks so pretty with her dark eyes and hair...you can see another image of Madelyn...in a really colorful and fun outfit on our website, Letsonportrait.com.

Grant

This cute little guy is Grant, he is such a sweet boy. We love the profile of his face here, he is really concentrating on those baseball cards!

Hallie's 4 -year Session
