It’s just not fair… | Evie Curley, Greensboro, NC Photographer

June 13, 2009

Have you ever seen a family and thought, “Wow, they are all just so perfect together!”? Well, I have. I know one personally and they are four of the nicest people I know. You have already been introduced to their daughters earlier and now you get to meet the parents of those two beautiful girls. Once you see them, it will be obvious that they come from a pretty nice gene pool…

This is a Father’s Day gift to the dad in these pics. He wanted an updated photo of all of them and I think we got several winners! Here is one I liked quite a bit:

And this one was the best, I thought….

Seriously. Could they BE anymore good looking??? Sheesh. And they’re extremely nice folks to boot.

Oh! I took a picture of my mom for her Facebook page and just wanted to show her off a little bit. I think my mom is very pretty and doesn’t look her age at all.
My mom!

I’m really keeping my fingers crossed that I look that good when I’m her age.

Hope your weekend is going well!

Gorgeous family and beautiful photos!! Did you use a tripod for those shots?

Your mother is beautiful. My mom has always looked very youthful, too. She’s still foolin’ ‘em at 70!

admin - - 5:51 pm

Thanks everybody! Vicki, I actually didn’t use a tripod. I don’t use one or even a monopod unless I’m shooting something where my shutter speed might cause handshake. I used my 85mm lens on these.

Amanda - - 8:23 pm

Seriously! Swimming in that gene pool did this family good! And your mom is a knockout!

Green Acres | Evie Curley, Greensboro Children’s Photographer

June 8, 2009

Are you humming the theme song to Green Acres yet? Good, because it’s stuck in my head and I wanted to share it with you. You’re welcome.

So this weekend, I took a little drive out to the country to photograph the family of a friend of mine from high school. Thanks to Facebook, we reconnected and she hired me to shoot some pictures of her little ones. We had a blast! They live on an amazing piece of property and were kind enough to give me the tour around via pickup truck. It was quite a day. The kids were so much fun and full of life. Her daughter was really not too sure about the picture taking process but I got several that I really, really liked. Her son has the most amazing colored eyes you have ever seen!!! I included a pic below that I absolutely freaking love that is an up close shot of it. Seriously, I’m going to get that one blown up big and put it in my office!!

Take a look and please leave some love if you feel so inclined. I had another shoot last night and will have some pics up from that one soon as well. :)

This was the view I had most of the day. She was so quick! Every time I thought I had the perfect shot of her face she would catch me and turn and run away!! So funny!

And another….
IMG_1079.jpg

Here is one I love of the two of them together. Again, you can’t see her face (which totally cracks me up) but the expression on his face makes this image for me.
IMG_1279.jpg

And, without further adieu, here is my favorite. It’s not traditional at all and I love everything about it!
IMG_1324.jpg

It was so much fun to see my friend and get all caught up on our lives since high school. I really hope they enjoyed themselves and these pictures as much as I!

Evie, I think that these are GREAT…know why? They are REAL and GENUINE! I feel like I know the children through these images. The one of the little girl hiding behind her brother…love it! I am sure that their Mommy will agree that you did a terrific job capturing the true essence of her children. And yes, his eyes are stunning!!!

Renee - - 6:28 pm

I just love all of these! Anyone can take stuffy indoor studio shots that really don’t represent the kiddos at all, but these truly do show who they are! I was going to say that I really love the 2nd one, but I really love all of them! They are fun, happy and them!! Isn’t that what photographs should represent?!? Yes, I think so!!! Great job, both the children are adorable and I do love those eyes!!

Amber Wiseman - - 7:38 pm

I’m sure mom is gushing….I know I sure would be. I think it is fantastic when you can take children and capture them just as they are. Photo’s like these are pure “art” and here you have captured “childhood!” FANTASTIC!!!

Charlotte Stringer - - 7:48 pm

Absolutely beautiful!! These children are beautiful and I love the magic you caught in his eyes in the last one! I would get that printed sooo big! The first of the the little girl walking away just captures her childhood ! Great job Evie!

Summer - - 9:26 pm

These are SO great, Evie! I love them all, you did such a great job capturing them & I know mom is going to love them! And it sounds like you guys had a blast together! Can’t get any better!

Kyla Branch - - 10:05 pm

Love that first one! I know their Mom is gonna be thrilled. These are some cute kiddos.

Schona Kessler - - 1:03 am

I think the folks will love these as they capture personality! Love his eyes…my daughter has blue eyes and one has brown in it too! Unique.

Christina R. - - 3:20 am

hehe! that first one is so darn cute!

Katherine - - 6:37 am

I love all of them because they are so real and true. The little girl running and hiding is so much fun and the close up of brother is awesome. Love the eyes and totally dig the composition.
