Finished With the Portraits for the All-Star Pizza Display
I photographed my last kid for the sports-themed portrait display we're creating at All-Star Pizza in Anderson, MO. Now for the fun part: selecting which portrait from which child I will use. Fun, fun! Once the finished display is up, we'll post a photo on the blog so everyone can see.

More finished products to share with you! These belong to Carissa from Carthage, MO. Her home will be on the HBA Parade of Homes this weekend and the next, so stop by and see them. Walk reverently past the Calotype prints! :)

Reagan Family: Neosho, MO
We were so happy to photograph Dr. Jon and Shelia Reagan again! I can't believe it's been a year since we photographed Paige and Peri for spring portraits. This time, they brought their own flag for a 4th of July theme. You can see more favorites from their Portrait Session on Facebook.

Sports Portraits for the Display at All-Star Pizza in Anderson
Remember this offer? Some of the kids started trickling in last week, and here's a sneak peek of Trenton, Mr. Personality himself. See some of the kids we've photographed so far on our Facebook page.
We have three more kids coming in next week, and two more the week after that... keep watching! The finished prints will hang in All-Star Pizza. We hope to have the display finished during the month of July.
Have you been to All-Star Pizza since it's re-opened under new owner Travis Lewis? They still have the cinnamon rolls! :)

Red Onion Espressoria in Joplin Opens Tuesday, June 16th!
And why am I excited? Well, smoked chicken dip immediately springs to mind. And stays there for a while.
I love smoked chicked dip. I wanted to name our first child after it, but we decided at the last minute that "Jack" would be easier for him to spell in kindergarten.
Putting the SCD aside for a moment, Calotype is so very, very proud to display BEAUTIFUL Canvas Gallery Wraps of their work all through the restaurant! One very large 40x60" Canvas and 4 smaller-but-still-self-confident 24x36" Canvases.
We photographed the original Red Onion in all its glory (4th and Virginia in historic downtown Joplin), and of course, since we're Calotype and PHOTOGRAPHING PEOPLE IS WHAT WE DO, these pictures were smattered with lovely people having a lovely time. There was smoked chicken dip involved, of course.
Then I designed lovely Canvas Gallery Wraps, our highest quality product at Calotype, using these pictures. I faded and antiqued the photos, using my Top Secret Fading and Antiquing Processes, then artfully arranged them with my new fave graphic— stripes— to create the masterpieces that now hang in the Red Onion Espressoria.
Stop by Tuesday to see, in person, what we created. (32nd & Indiana in Joplin.) And don't forget to order the Smoked Chicken Dip.

Cailyn Hollands: Nevado, MO
We strongly suspect that the cutest kids come to Calotype! Check out the evidence, below, with Cailyn's portraits. She came for our June special, "Little Models," and this is what her mom, Megan, had to say:
"Julie and Jonathan- All I can say is WOW! I have taken our three children many places to have their pictures taken and this by far has been the best, you can count on me to be back time and time again. Julie, you are truly amazing with getting the perfect shots and with keeping Cailyn entertained the entire session. She still talks about her “photo shoot” and it has been a week ago, she loved it and so did I. I am so excited to get the prints and can not wait to see the canvas art series. Again, I can not express in words the gratitude I have, but you were able to catch the expressions, quirks and smiles of Cailyn that are truly her— so for that, thank you."

Jack is Eight Months Old!
The poor child— this is how every Session goes. Big smile, serious pouty look, then a serious "I quit" look. Or two. I present, in chronological order, my Session with my son Jack.
