My kiddos!

Saturday, June 2nd, 2012

So people are always telling me that I don’t post enough pictures of my own kids (mostly those people are their grandparents).  Anyway, Zoe just turned 2 last Saturday so we took her and Zane out for a photo shoot this week to commemorate the big 02.  Photographers across the country will tell you that your own children are the hardest ones to photograph.  I’m here to tell you it’s absolutely true.  Here are a few favorites of my kiddos!

Zoe pushing Zane’s car around.

Sunday, March 6th, 2011

Zoe is 9-months old now and she’s ready to start walking any day. She loves to push things around (boxes, clothing baskets, etc.), and today, apparently, Zane’s car needed a rolling jump. So Zoe was there to help out.

Enjoy this quick little video from today.

 

The rest of the story!

Friday, March 4th, 2011

Several of you have commented on how cute Zane and Zoe were in their 3-year/9-month photos that we posted earlier this week.  While we appreciate all the doting, we didn’t want you to think that the photo shoot was all Peaches ‘n’ Cream.  In fact, I think my children are the hardest subjects to shoot.

This collage gives a much more accurate depiction of how the photo shoot really went down.

I call this piece . . . “Summing up Sibling-Hood” (I hope it gives you a chuckle like it did for me and Rachel)

My Little Models – Zane and Zoe

Sunday, February 27th, 2011

Zoe turned 9-months old yesterday (and Zane turned 3 a little over a month ago) so we took the kids into the studio and did a quick photo shoot with them.  They’re growing like little weeds.  Here are a few favorites from Zane and Zoe’s photo shoot today.

 

I haven’t touched a computer almost 3 weeks!

Friday, January 28th, 2011

We closed on our new house/studio on Jan. 10 and we’re finally starting to get settled in. I slept in my own bed last night for the time in weeks (oh what a relief that was!) and I just unpacked my computer out of the boxes today so this blog post is literally my first time using it since we moved. Moving is definitely a challenge, but moving AND doing construction/remodeling all at the same time is madness! We’ve been living on the upstairs level of our home while the main floor and basement (the studio) have been getting worked on. Things are finally starting to come together and we’ve got some really EXCITING things planned for our clients this year. We can’t wait to show you the new studio and the new viewing theater and the grounds and so much more. It’s going to be an exciting exciting year. Thanks for hanging in there and being patient with us while we move. I have a lot of e-mails to catch up on. I apologize that it’s taken me this long to respond to some of them but we’re finally starting to get back to normal around here.

Pictures of the new place will follow in the next few weeks after we finish the remodel.

New home, New studio, New Location!

Monday, January 10th, 2011

Well, it is official. We closed on our new house yesterday afternoon.  Our studio will still be in our home.  It’s just that our home will be in a new location.

We are very excited about all of the new shooting opportunities that the new property will bring (8 acres, a pond, a creek, a pool, a 4000 square foot basement for our studio!, spiral stair case, hard wood floors, and so much more).

Unfortunately, our studio will be closed for the rest of January as we get moved in, settled, and start remodeling the new place. We’ll start shooting sessions again in February. Thanks for your patience during this transition. We’re excited to see you all soon and show you the new place.  Until then, here are a few pictures of the exterior to hold you over.

We’re homeless!!

Monday, January 10th, 2011

We just closed on our old house this morning, and we will close on our new house this afternoon, so technically for the next few hours, Rachel and I don’t own a home. Don’t worry about us though. We have until next Monday to move so we’re not really without a place to live. More details on the new place to follow soon . . . .

Zoe’s 6-month pictures

Thursday, December 16th, 2010

Zoe turned 6-months on Thanksgiving and she’s already doing SOOOO much.  She pulls up on EVERYTHING (her crib, tables, toys, baskets, our legs, and so on).  The girl LOVES to be on her feet.  She even lets go and tries to balance on her own.  She manages about 1 second before grabbing back on, but she gets so excited and proud of herself when she’s on her feet by herself.  It’s really funny.  I have no doubt she’ll be walking by 9-months.

Anyway . . . here is a little wall collage we put together from her 6-month photo shoot.  Each image below is a separate print.  They will be framed individually and will hang separately side by side in her room like this to spell out her name.  This works great for kids with 3 or 4 or even 5 letters in their name.

We’re Moving!

Friday, December 10th, 2010

That’s right, we’re moving to a new home.  We’re not moving far . . . just to a different home in Jackson (more details about our new home/studio to follow in a separate blog post).

For now . . . here’s what we need.  We need to sell our current home.  So if you happen to know of anyone who’s looking for a beautiful 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom house in Jackson, PLEASE share the following video/link with them.

Thanks so much – Tyson and Rachel

Halloween at the Zahner’s

Sunday, October 31st, 2010

Halloween has a whole new meaning when you have kids.  I mean really, let’s admit it.  We get WAYYY more out of this dressing-up-your-kids business than they do.  Zane doesn’t want to wear his costume and Zoe is too little to care.  But it sure is fun as parents to get them dressed up and take pictures of them so that’s exactly what Rachel and I did today.

Here are a few favorites of my kids, Zane and Zoe.

Happy Halloween!
