Macken…Mcke…Maken….McKinzey*!!

We had the great pleasure of working with McKinzey this evening! I’ll tell you what, McKinzey seriously had her stuff together. She tore it up mad style. She went crazy on us. Working with McKinzey was the best way for us to end the day!

We totally and completely had a great time working with her, as her total ease with a camera shone through all she did. We want to throw her mad props (see how hip I am by using modern street slang) for being such a gem, and for letting Otis try on so many different items of her clothing; and for letting James be near a sea of purses.

Well, if anybody out there can look at the following photographs and give us a heads up as to what the accurate spelling of Whitney’s name is – it would be greatly appreciated. So, enough crazed ranting, and on with the pics – Enjoy!

Heather!

After a week of non-photographic work, Otis & James returned to the land of Senior Portraits this morning when we were visited by our new friend Heather!! She, along with her entourage (Ma, Bro & Sis) made the trek down to the newly painted nerve center for some super-deluxe snappy snaps.

Heather totally tore it up in the studio – she turned on the inner model and we went along for the adventure! She was a true joy to work with, and we thank both her and her entourage for making the trip to see us. Well, I’ll quit all of my crazy talk and get on with the goods – Enjoy!

Lacy…Part II

This past Tuesday (again a day late, a dollar short), we were able to complete the shoot with our old friend, Lacy (you may remember her from this post)!!

I’ll tell you what, there is no way for a person to not have a great time working with Lacy, as her smile/laugh/all around sunny disposition makes any cloud go away! We thank her again for being a member of the Otis & James Family (we all wear matching Members Only jackets.) So Lacy, thank you and – Enjoy!

Finally, Ben!

One week ago (actually as I write this it’s like one week and a day, but who’s counting at this point), we at Otis & James had the great honor of working with our man, Ben!

You see, we thought that we would build up the suspense to a fever pitch in posting his snappy-snaps in the blog, and I think that we have achieved our mission. So I will waste not a minute more, and will now cut straight to the snaps (well, first I want to extend a big shout out to both Ben and his faithful and trusty assistant ((MOM)) for all of their hard work, and for the great time we had) – Enjoy!

Oh, and one more thing – let’s hear it for Ben in managing to fit not just one, but three cars in the studio. Skills. That’s all I have to say to that.

Skills.

And now – Enjoy!

Julie!

This morning, we in Otis & James Land (the only inhabitants of which are Otis &James – it’s a pretty exclusive land) were reunited with our old friend Julie for the occasion of her Senior Portraits! She and her merry band of family (Mom, Sis, and Bro) came down to HQ and let the par-tay begin!

The fact that we had already spent some quality time with Julie before (altough I’m not sure that any time spent in our super-crappy old Honda could be considered in any form to be quality), as this made the shoot today all the easier. We all laughed in gigglish and cute ways, and Julie turned to magic setting to high, and the results were suuuuuper-faaaaaaaaantastic!

Thank you to Julie for her time with us, and to everybody else out there – Enjoy!

Jared. Just Jared

I don’t know of any other way to introduce this post other than to say…Ladies and Gentlemen…I want you to join me in giving a big Minot North Dakota welcome to the legendary, mystifying, side-splitting, pondering, friend to flora and fauna alike…none other than the man, the myth, the legend of soul himself…the Magic City Mad Man… the purveyor of percolated coffee and the man of perpetual motion…Jared.

Give it up, and – Enjoy!

Kensie!

Yesterday evening, we at Otis & James HQ were joined by the oh-so-lovely Kensie for the occasion of her Senior Portraits! We had a great time together, and Kensie was just an absolute joy to work with as we began our time in the studio, and then hit the pavement downtown in search of the perfect shot.

Kensie is going to come back later to finish up the rest of her shoot, but for now why don’t you sit back and enjoy some snaps from our adventures yesterday – Enjoy!

It’s Nick Again!

Bright and early, Nick rolled on into our studio for the conclusion of his shoot (you can find his previous post here.) He braved the cold, and also a quick run up about 200 stairs (notice how Jamie and I were all like “why don’t you go up there and see if the gate it open”) in order to make his time with us suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper sweet.

Well, super sweet it was, and I’m going to show the proof – Enjoy!

Caitlin!

We concluded our totally awesome Super Senior day yesterday with a visit from none other than the magnificent Caitlin! I don’t quite know what to say about our time together other than she truly was Caitlin the magnificent, as she came in and conquered the land of Otis & James with her radiance and enthusiasm (as well as mystified us with her incredible non-glare lenses)!

She, along with her trusty assistant (Mom) were an absolute joy to work with, and we thank them for spending this lovely evening with us. As they say (they being me), off with these words and on with the snaps – Enjoy!

Emily…One More Time!

Our glorious Monday came to a sweet conclusion with another visit from an old friend of Otis & James – Emily! Take a look at her previous post here, or you can just take a look at the rest of her photo-graphic session right below these words.

Either way, you’re in for a visual treat, as Emily rocked it up on both occasions! We thank her for making this Monday absolutely perfect, and we offer these photographs as a treat for one and all – Enjoy!
