JJ (Ma & Pa Too)!!

We concluded our day of beautiful babies with a visit from our new friend JJ – and he brought with him Mom & Dad as well. All I gotta say is that this boy has a smile that could bring the world to its knees – I’m not sure what that means, but believe me when I say that if the dial that turned up charm went to 10, he turned it up to 11 and then one beyond that – 12.

And…as long as we were all here taking pics, we thought ‘what a grand idea it would be to take a couple of Mom & Dad’, or as they were known in the time before JJ – John & Sara. We immediately were able to see where JJ got the camera mojo from as soon as we started snappin’ up on these two. They rocked, straight up.

Well, I think that this post has gone far enough, and we should take a little time to look at some of the goods from the evening – Enjoy!

Khai!

Yesterday afternoon we had the great honor of meeting an awesome young man by the name of Khai! Not only did we meet him, but we got to meet him on his 1st Birthday!! Khai came down to the studio with a couple of assistants (Mom & Grandma), and after giving us the old ‘once-over’, he got down to business.

Khai pulled out all the stops – from his Packers hat, to his Spidey-Man outfit (and chair), not to mention his super-deluxe truck that was 100 times better than any sort of truck that I had as a kid – he rocked it all up!

We want to thank Khai and his entourage for taking time out from his birthday festivities to pay us a visit, and we would now like to offer up some pics from the day – Enjoy!

The Family Warner…Featuring Beckett!!

Yesterday evening we had a grand time here in the O&J Funhouse as we were paid a visit from the Family Warner, and there super-awesome son, Beckett!!

They came into the the studio as a photographic force to be reckoned with, as they were in complete control of the shoot – they owned it! Working the camera in ways that we have never seen before, and probably will never see again, unless they decide to come back for the big 2nd Birthday pics!

We can only hope so, for this family was completely awesome to work with, and the proof from the festivities will only go to back this statement up – Enjoy!

Desert Ice @ Otis & James!

We concluded our day this past Saturday with a visit from the Desert Ice Dancers (which if you look at the group pic below are Libby, Corinne, Aisha, Beth, Ashley and Alyssa)! This was indeed not an everyday Otis & James occurance, and the studio was rocking with a beat that was far more exotic than it’s usual 4/4 way.

One of the reasons for the photographs was because they wil be performing on Valentine’s Day (that’s February 14th for those of you that aren’t aware of this new-fangled holiday) at the Dakota Inn – which is located next to Homesteaders restaurant. According to information provided, there will be performances in the Turkish, Egyptian and American Styles of Middle Eastern Dance (aka Bellydance.)

We had a great time watching and working with this talented group, and we’re sure that anybody that attends this performance will have a great time! Well, enough of all this typing, let’s get on to the snaps – Enjoy!

Chad & Jen!

We concluded our week (I know, it’s a little late) – last week, with a visit from an old friend (Jen) and her faithful sidekick (Chad)! They stopped by the Otis & James Pleasure Palace for some super-fantastic Valentines Portraits!

This loverly couple was absolutely wonderful to work with, and we would like to thank them for coming down to the studio and helping us conclude our Monday – Friday week in such a pleasant way! Cheers to them for this, and to everyone else (and them too – whoever them may be, but in this case it is indeed Chad & Jen) – Enjoy!

Jason & Alison!

This afternoon Otisandjamesville welcomed our newest friends, Jason & Alison to the non-stop-party that is Otisandjamesville! This lovely couple kicked down our office door with the same gusto that the Kool-Aid® Man (is that a man, or are Kool-Aid people androgynous filled to the brim with colored sugar water beings?? – and if you click that link, what’s up with the Kool-Aid® Man having humanoid legs and arms that are all atheletic – the proportions are all crazy-like…) would. Alright, enough of the tangent.

Their mission (Jason & Alison, in case I wandered too far): some totally rockin’ Valentine Special Photographs – and it was immediately clear that they would indeed be successful with this mission, and the proof is in the snaps. A big thank you to this wonderful couple for taking time to visit us, and to one and all – Enjoy!

Preston!

I don’t know what the story is, but lately we have been blessed with the great fortune of working absolutely beautiful babies! In keeping with the trend, this past Wednesday we had the great opportunity of working with a really great young man by the name of Preston!

This beautiful boy came in and lit up the studio with his radiant personality and charming good looks! In fact, I’m just going to stop talking about it and move on to some of the photographs – before I do, though, a big thank you to Mom for all of her help! Enjoy!

Sydnie!

All I have to say to this beautiful young lady is thank you for being so totally great to work with (as was your Momma!) Our time together this past Monday was fabulous, and we wish you the best 1st Birthday possible!

Instead of all this looking at words, let’s just look at her snaps from the day – Enjoy!

Gracie!

This evening (now last evening) we joined up with a new friend of Otis & James – Gracie (and mom too!)

It was a Friday night filled with fun, as we threw animals in the air, ate some marshmallows did our best model posing, and then Otis did his best helium voice for everyone – it was a regular party!

We had a great time working with this wonderful duo, and the photographs are fantastic! We thank both of them for taking time this night to come down and visit us, and now offer up some snaps from the festivities – Enjoy!

Scott & Kristin

This past Friday afternoon we welcomed Scott & Kristin (and special guest puppy) to the Otis & James Compound of Good Times – and good times were indeed to be had!

We had a great time working with this great couple (I’m going heavy on the greats, I know), and we thank them for taking the time to be with us on this pleasant afternoon. Well, enough of the of these letters that make words, let’s move to the pixels that make pics – Enjoy!
