Horse Portraits at Beracah Valley Farm in Chardon, Ohio

Posted By Tim O'Keefe on June 14, 2010

I met up with Kristen at Beracah Valley Farm in Chardon the other day to get some portraits of her with her horse.  We wanted to get a silhouette image of Kristen with her horse (and one for sister Nicole too) to make a 3-foot by 5-foot wall mural.  I’m happy with the results and hope you like them too… Enjoy!  Tim

Sports: Great Lakes Sox Baseball

Posted By Tim O'Keefe on May 27, 2010

 We met up with the Great Lakes Sox at Captain’s Stadium a few weeks ago and did their team/individual photos and action shots.  Stacey and I (yes, my wife, Stacey went with me and was the second shooter on the 3rd base side… she did really good) left just when the rain started and the score was tied 4-4.  The Sox pulled it out though and won 11-4… good job guys!  Enjoy these designs from the event.

Senior: Tyler Lowe, a classic Corvette and the Cops!

Posted By Tim O'Keefe on May 20, 2010

Where do I start.  Where do I start.  We had a great beginning to our senior portrait session with Tyler at our studio.  He has an awesome personality, a great smile and is built like a linebacker (oh yeah- he is a linebacker).  Then we moved outside to a second location for some outdoor pics with his dad’s classic corvette.  Then the cops came!  After a little talking and pleading with “the law”, we got away with a stern warning— no jail time!!!  My jail-free streak continues (yeaaaaaahhh haaaawwwww!).  Just kidding.  We like to keep it fresh with the seniors and stay on the lookout for new cool outdoor locations.  While at one of our “spots”, an officer was driving by and asked what was going on.  We started talking and said “Geee officer, it would be awesome if we made it look like you were arresting Tyler” and what do you know?  He obliged.  We all had a few laughs, made a unique memory and went about our business.  (seriously- no jail time!)  Enjoy these images!Unique Senior Portraits in Northeast Ohio by Tim O'Keefe Photography

What exactly is baton twirling?

Posted By Tim O'Keefe on May 2, 2010

When my wife, Stacey, received a phone call about providing photography services for an upcoming state competition baton event, her initial question was “OK, great. So is this cheerleading or gynmastics?”  Needless to say, it’s much different from both.  Our girls are into swimming, soccer, basketball and volleyball, so this was a first for us.  Audrey from the Showstoppers School of Baton and Dance was a gracious host and provided an excellent event.

We were blown away by this event and had to bring our girls to see it on the second day of the competition.  Our youngest one, was really watching and admiring the girls in the competition, can’t you tell?  (LOOK AT THE LAST IMAGE)  Her leg was almost over her head right?
