Today I thought it would be nice to share some products I offer. Nothing crazy cool about these, but they are high quality and beautiful! Some people may think it’s crazy for a 5×7 to be $25, honestly it’s the norm (*if not below) for a ‘professional photographer.’ I am not writing this to […]
where is this church? the architecture is amazing!! love the lines!March 11, 2011 – 9:55 pm
I LOVE LOVE LOVE metallic prints….I am waiting for a sample velvet. OOHHHHH! the church pictures are stunning. Love the b&w ceiling shot. 🙂March 11, 2011 – 9:44 pm
A girl friend was having a baby shower – for her second sweetie pie… a GIRL! I had contemplated giving her a ‘newborn session’ as a gift. My thought was WHAT IF she didn’t like my work, what if that was a total flop and made me seem overly confident in myself? Well, my solution […]

What a great idea…and I love Erin’s idea as well. 🙂 It’s beautiful, Arden.March 10, 2011 – 8:09 am
I love that you nail polish matched the card!March 9, 2011 – 7:22 pm
This came at such a perfect time! I have to give a gift certificate for a silent auction basket and I think I’ll do one this way! Thank you!March 9, 2011 – 2:06 pm
Yep! You might offer both mini sessions and full sessions so you have two price points since everyone’s pocket depth differs! 🙂
Totally awesome and unique gift versus onsies and bottle cleaners etc. LOLMarch 9, 2011 – 1:12 pm
Oh GREAT idea – the joke was girls were going: I need to have another baby or I need to invite you to my shower 🙂
Looks like I can drum up some business though 🙂
Thanks E!!!March 9, 2011 – 11:49 am
Arden, it looks awesome! That a great idea for your gift and maybe a good idea for some folks looking to purchase a unique baby shower gift for a close friend or relative…Hint hint people….it would be the gift that keeps on giving! Arden’s work is…simply put…AMAZING 🙂March 9, 2011 – 11:38 am
Just some colorful and playful shots of our girl. She had fun at the Zoo and with Pierson’s decorative scissors! Can’t beat a lazy-Susan full of bright scissors! Just look at how busy she is… shoes on, shoes off, walking this way and that, not an easy ‘model,’ but sure is cute. 🙂 Then […]

Your family is BEAUTIFUL…..it’s not enough to be super talented behind the camera but to be models to boot. WOW! I adore your work! 🙂March 13, 2011 – 3:10 pm
you are sooooo in trouble with your little guy.. oh.my.gosh!!!
Arden, you have such a lovely family!!! And knowing you I know how genuine your smile truly is! I am so glad we’re friends!March 8, 2011 – 9:36 pm
Thanks Arden, I basically wanted what you gave…just as a reference <3March 8, 2011 – 8:04 pm
wow – Arden! I LOVE Parx headed down the street with her blankie; Pierson looking down and the sweep of his eyelashes – and Pierson about to kiss Parx. Such sweetness!March 8, 2011 – 7:55 pm
Love! You are awesome and so talented! I need to load up my little ones and head to The Stockyards.March 8, 2011 – 5:18 pm
when i say I love your work..I LOOOOVE IT..so crisp..colorful..BEAUTIFUL..no matter what your shooting you always make it so lovely..a true talent you are…March 8, 2011 – 5:05 pm
Well I believe the Stockyards shots are all shot with: 85 1.2 and the others (collages) are shot with 24-70 2.8
The settings are ALL different. Honestly even if I gave you an exact setting you couldn’t duplicate it because our lighting won’t be identical 🙂
My ISO is anywhere from 200-500, depending on the place.
Also some of these images look over-exposed on my computer now – perhaps the resizing for web action or the fact that my kiddos’ skin is glowy white.March 8, 2011 – 4:10 pm
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!! Ok now I’m going to be a pest….would love to know what lens you’re using and any chance you can tell me settings??? Do you shoot auto white balance?
Oh and HUGE congrats on your pregnancy!!!!

BEAUTIFUL COUPLE!!!! 🙂 I wanna do it all over again!March 7, 2011 – 3:46 pm
I have had a few newborns over the past three weeks – which is a lot for me. I started getting newborns last year and have really enjoyed getting to know what makes a NB content and photo-worthy. Also learning as a photographer – how to pose, how to shoot, how NOT to pose and […]

I am wondering if you use a flash when inside? What if you go somewhere and they do not have enough natural light – I recently tried to do a shoot inside but there was not enough light and I went to use my external flash, however, daddy wouldnt let me, even when baby was asleep. Have you ever had this issue, what lense do you use in order to let in enough light??
Thanks, this is a great post!May 8, 2011 – 8:54 pm

Very cool images! So much life and energy!March 9, 2011 – 9:03 pm
I am pretty sure this is the backdrop stand I am using:
http://www.amazon.com/SP2000-Backdrop-Background-Square-Perfect/dp/B000UE50O2
It’s called Square Perfect and I traded with with a client – along with some continual lights 🙂March 9, 2011 – 9:39 am
Thank you so much for sharing this! What exactly are you using for the frame of your backdrop?March 9, 2011 – 7:32 am
Arden these are so wonderful! Love 🙂 Thanks for sharing!March 8, 2011 – 8:29 am
LOVE!! I love to see work in action! And I love your choice of basket.. I use that one all the time… Thank you for sharing!March 6, 2011 – 9:16 pm
wow! these images are beautiful! I love your work. same question as a couple other people – is that your 24-70? thanks so much for the behind the scenes shots!March 6, 2011 – 7:17 pm
THIS is great!! Love the pullbacks! Thanks so much for taking the time to post these, they really do help out!March 5, 2011 – 12:13 pm
I love the pull backs Arden! They are so fun to look at!March 4, 2011 – 4:45 pm
I love this post. It’s one of the best tutorials on newborns I’ve seen yet. Thanks, yet again!March 4, 2011 – 3:00 pm
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing 😀 Funny how my ‘load’ is the same as yours. Props take over my car, and storage space (and client’s home, lol)
Would you say your 24-70 is your newborn lens? Mine is the 50 1.4 but anytime I need the zoom and wider angle I love my 24-70.March 4, 2011 – 11:42 am
Great post Arden! I love seeing the behind the scenes pictures of you! You sure do have a way with those newborns and it shows in the finished product 🙂March 4, 2011 – 9:38 am
Oh my word. The one of the little guy in the ballglove … that boy BETTER play baseball after that! All of the finished photos are incredible, and I love the behind the scenes shots, too. Sweet, sweet babies…March 4, 2011 – 9:13 am
Love this Arden! I wish I looked as adorable as you when I shoot! I’m trying to figure out a way to lug all my stuff around!! I’ve just been throwing it all in large trash bags (so ghetto) I like the idea of using suitcases!March 4, 2011 – 9:11 am
Is that your 24-70 lens in these shots? I think these posts are great for people to realize all the effort that goes on behind the scenes to get the great shots! Nice work. (BYW, I love how fun you are with nail polish!)March 4, 2011 – 9:11 am
