I know I sure did and I can't wait to experience what 2010 has to offer. To start off the year, I will be launching a new website & blog in the next month. And I have a little something special from the session below that I just cannot wait to share. <br />... All in due time...<br /></div><br /><center><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2734/4242762317_121546eee8_o.jpg" alt="2010 blog" width="900" height="900" /></center><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">In 2010, I want to remind you to cherish all that's around you. I know I want to keep in better contact with the ones I love, hug more, laugh more, relax more, and soak up every bit of this year that I can. I don't want to get to the end of 2010 and feel like it all went by too fast (like I do this year, and every other one.) I don't want to have any regrets and I truly plan to live every day to the fullest. Like I might not have another. That's what I want my life to represent. <br />So, cheers to a new year and may you be blessed in all you do!<br />♥ Kelly<br /> </div>Kelly Beanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17655737563628632247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-681492640469765619.post-59897333248363124652009-12-04T11:37:00.003-06:002009-12-04T12:37:58.504-06:00TGIF Randomness...<div style="text-align: center;">I don't really have anything too specific to blog about today. I do have tons of awesome weddings & shoots to post, but finding the time is near to impossible. I have two more weddings for 2009 and then will have a little bit of a break before the 2010 season kicks in, which I am super stoked about - the break and the 2010 season. :) Right now I have 11 fabulous couples I'm working with and I can already tell 2010 is going to be another amazing year. Which brings me to the thought, if you are looking to book for 2010, please contact me soon. I am only commissioning 24 weddings and May is already booked full, and June is almost there. I am definitely counting my blessings during these economic times!!<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />On a more personal note, we had a great Thanksgiving. We got to see almost all of our families, and will get to see the rest of our siblings and families in December, which is pretty amazing considering we have 10 siblings all together... almost all with kids, so that doesn't happen to often in one holiday season. I'm so excited about these next few months... my birthday is next week, then Hanukkah, then Bryan and I will celebrate our 6th anniversary, New Years will be soon after, then Abi's bday in January, Bryan's in February and Elijah will turn 1 in March - only 4 months away. Life is going by way too fast and I'm just trying to do my best to soak it all in and count my blessings.<br /><br />I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and continues to has a wonderful holiday season!! And a great weekend at that!<br /><br />Here are some recent pics of my sweet kiddos... Enjoy!<br /></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Peek a boo ;)<br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><center><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2716/4157674151_db0587987f_o.jpg" alt="IMG_5774 web" width="900" height="600" /></center></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Yep, he has an crimson wall - Boomer Sooner Baby!!<br />(except that we haven't had too great of a football season, but we won't get into that)<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><center><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2486/4158435664_aba5520c5c_o.jpg" alt="IMG_5747 web" width="900" height="600" /></center></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">This boy...

I just do, and I am so thankful for that. But Anne is of a different world... of the most sweetest, like I don't know if you could make her mad if you tried. She's just that nice! And Ben, he is so gentle, and kind, and loving towards her. It's really touching to experience these two together and their undying love for each other. Their day was simple, beautiful and perfectly displayed the personalities of these two. I couldn't have imagined a more ideal day for Anne, and I am blessed I was a part of it!

I don't really think sorry is good enough.<br />Somehow I've gotten overwhelmed and the blog slowly moved down the list of priorities. Not on purpose by any means because I love blogging, it's just been a bit difficult finding the right balance since adding another little one to our family. I have lists & lists of things I need to get done and I am slowly but surely lifting these weights off my shoulders. I LOVE what I do, I love all things photography, I especially enjoy anything that has to do with weddings, but I also love being a wife & mommy. This business of mine allows me to stay home with my children, and I don't want to lose focus of that huge blessing and not take advantage of it. My husband has also changed jobs and a lot is happening in our lives. All for the good though and I know and trust that God always has a plan. So please just bear with me while we transition through this time in our lives and enjoy our summer together.<br /><br />I do have lots of great posts in store for the future and please don't give up on checking back here with me! Until next time...<br />♥ Kelly<br /></div><br /><center><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3660/3657376403_26c4bca1f2_o.jpg" alt="IMG_8663 web" width="1000" height="667" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">These are my beauties!

No, seriously they do! I was fascinated with every single detail of this wedding, from the undeniably gorgeous flowers to the sparkly brooch on her wedding dress, right down to every single emotion expressed - happy tears and loud laughs. It was all perfection. <a href="http://abeautifulimageblog.com/">Abi</a> shot this wedding with me and I'm so glad she was able to be there with me. And oh my goodness did we come out with a tons of images, so here's just a few of my favorites and go check out her <a href="http://abeautifulimageblog.com/">blog</a> for more!!<br /><br />We started out at a family friend's house for brunch.<br /></div><br /><center><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3378/3571977975_db6088fd2e_o.jpg" alt="scblog1" width="900" height="667" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Aren't they adorable?

I do always intend to, and then life just takes over. I want to make a goal for myself to post at least 2 times per week. I might up that soon, but I think I'll start there for now. So peeps, feel free to keep me accountable. Call me out, put me on the spot... whatever you have to. Or maybe you won't have to because I'll actually do it. <br />Let's see, game on!!<br /><br />So I have 5 weddings and who knows how many portrait sessions to post, but before I get to that list I'd like to share one of my favorite images from Saturday's wedding. I shot in the little town of Lindsay, OK at the Historical Murray Lindsay Mansion. I would link it, but there is no website.<br />So enjoy this image for now and be expecting some fabulous posts very soon!<br /></div><br /><br /><center><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3403/3565796438_3a8cd6a7ff_o.jpg" alt="lindsmurraymansion" width="900" height="600" /><br /><br />♥ Kelly<br /></center>Kelly Beanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17655737563628632247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-681492640469765619.post-62258719848712713452009-05-05T17:03:00.006-05:002009-05-06T00:04:33.978-05:00Heres to you Mrs. Robinson...<div style="text-align: center;">YES, Cassie is now Mrs. Robinson and I couldn't be more excited for her!<br /></div><br /><center><img src="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" photos="" n06="" 3505048897="" title="cdwed1 by kelly beane [photography], on Flickr" /><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3328/3505048897_265fb2467f_o.jpg" alt="cdwed1" width="600" height="600" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Isn't her jacket oh so cute! <a href="http://abeautifulimageblog.com/">Abi</a>, her maid of honor made that for her... and much more which I will share about in a minute.<br /></div><center><img src="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" photos="" n06="" 3505048923="" title="cdwed2 by kelly beane [photography], on Flickr" /><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3403/3505048923_28226fb1e9_o.jpg" alt="cdwed2" width="900" height="667" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Um, yeah... she's gorgeous and she get it from her momma!<br /></div><center><img src="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" photos="" n06="" 3505858134="" title="cdwed3 by kelly beane [photography], on Flickr" /><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3612/3505858134_07217768e9_o.jpg" alt="cdwed3" width="900" height="667" /></center><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" photos="" n06="" 3505858176="" title="cdwed4 by kelly beane [photography], on Flickr" /><br /></div><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3650/3505858176_b9ecd9f666_o.jpg" alt="cdwed4" width="900" height="600" /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><center><img src="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" photos="" n06="" 3505049079="" title="cdwed5 by kelly beane [photography], on Flickr" /><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3304/3505049079_5207a37aac_o.jpg" alt="cdwed5" width="900" height="667" /></center></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">So the picture above and the few below are of the stunning details created by Abi Martin.

Funny thing, both Tamara & Shelby happen to know each other, but didn't know I was shooting the other's wedding until we saw each other there... funny huh! Anyway, both of these women are so sweet and beautiful (obviously!!) and I couldn't love the way their images turned out more!!

My family was in a wreck and it's just made me so thankful that I have God in my life, his protection over my family,and his peace in my mind & heart.<br /><br />The details, my in laws Margaret & Charles (who are another set of parents to me) were driving through Lawton (heading here from Altus) with my daughter when another driver had a seizure, ran over the median, and hit them head on. Abi was asleep, thank goodness, so she really didn't know the extent of what had happened or what she had gone through. She came out of it with just a bruise on her shoulder from the car seat & she says her chest is a little sore, but she has really been so good! The only thing that's affected her is how she saw her Papa with all the blood & what not,<br />but I think she has really handled the whole situation very well.<br />Family (after seeing the truck) has said that there had to have been a protective bubble around my daughter. It's amazing that the seats didn't hit her or glass didn't fly her way. The back seat looked untouched while the front was extremely terrible. She is a little miracle - they all are really.<br />Margaret thought she was fine at the time, but it ends up she broke her arm (a clean break which is good) from bracing herself when the wreck happened and her knee isn't too great, which was a problem for her already so that doesn't help. She is really suffering with quite some pain. Her arm couldn't be put in a cast at the ER so hopefully that will be taken care of & go well tomorrow at the doctor.<br />Charles on the other hand got it the worst. He is pretty banged up with bruises & cuts everywhere and has a bad gash on his head. He does has a sub dermal hematoma (a collection of blood - a bruise basically) on his head so they have him in ICU to monitor him to make sure nothing progresses with that. We're hoping that everything continues to check out okay and he is released tomorrow. I'm sure they will both continue to suffer with aches & pains for a while considering what their body has gone through. I believe the other couple ended up fine with some aches, pains & bruises as well, but nothing too serious.<br /><br />I don't even know what to do but thank God everyone is alive.<br />From what I hear (since I didn't see) the vehicles looked pretty bad (definitely totaled) and the onlookers didn't expect anyone to come out nearly as good as they have. It's just so scary when you get that call. That feeling that overtakes your body knowing that something has happened to your family (especially your own child) - it's earth shaking. So, please be in prayer for my in laws that God will continue to heal & protect them. And please pray for Abi as well,<br />mainly that this is not a traumatic memory for her.<br /><br />I hope you all have a wonderful week and hold your family a little bit tighter<br />reminding yourself of what really matters in life.<br /><br />Blessings!<br />♥ Kelly<br /></div>Kelly Beanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17655737563628632247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-681492640469765619.post-59625457067240154842009-01-09T21:51:00.002-06:002009-01-11T14:10:16.634-06:00Kacie + Adam: Married!<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">First I'd like to give a quick update to all my prospective clients.

They are both such sweet souls. Their day had a tiny detour (RAIN), but their attitudes were awesome & everything continued on as planned. The evening ended up just perfect and I am blessed to have been able to be a part of their special celebration!<br /><br />Not good how far behind I am on my wedding posts. ;)<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/lankford%20wedding/kablog1.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">A fun moment with family before the ceremony<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/lankford%20wedding/kablog2.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I love that you can see her mom on the left wiping tears<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/lankford%20wedding/kablog3.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">What a beautiful backyard setting<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/lankford%20wedding/kablog4.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Sweet sweet moments...<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/lankford%20wedding/kablog5.jpg" /></center><br /><br /><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/lankford%20wedding/kablog6.jpg" /></center><br /><br /><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/lankford%20wedding/kablog9.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Beautiful details<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/lankford%20wedding/kablog8.jpg" /></center><br /><br /><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/lankford%20wedding/kablog7.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Kacie & Adam: May your future be truly blessed! It was great to catch up &<br />share in your day!<br /><br />♥ Kelly<br /></div>Kelly Beanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17655737563628632247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-681492640469765619.post-20966410433691754912008-12-21T18:00:00.004-06:002009-06-05T02:45:50.179-05:00Five Years...<div style="text-align: center;">Friday December 19th my hubby and I celebrated our 5th anniversary. Five years. I really just cannot believe time has flown by that fast. So much has changed in our lives the past five years, yet I love him so much more than the day I married him (which I certainly thought was NOT possible!) He knows how to drive me crazy, BUT he also knows just how to tickle me or cheer me up when I'm down. He knows just what to say to encourage & push me when I need it. He knows how to even me out, and that is just what he does... he completes me!<br />He is certainly my better half!<br />So, Bryan, I want to publicly thank you for all that you do! For who you are as an individual, and who we are together as a team!! I am so thankful for the Father you are to our daughter, and the one you will soon be to our son. Thank you for loving me the way that you do and putting up with my craziness! You are an amazing man and I'm truly blessed that Yahweh placed you in my life! I cannot wait for many more years together and to grow old with you. I love you baby!<br /><br />Since we were celebrating our anniversary, and really because so many things are changing in our lives, we had the one & only <a href="http://abeautifulimageblog.com/">ABI ~ A Beautiful Image ~</a> come take our pics yesterday. Thank you Abi for giving me the images as soon as we took them and letting me go crazy with my own editing. It's so nice to have such amazing photog friends!!<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">This is one last simple picture of the three of us before we welcome another soul into our family. It is certainly an all time favorite of the 3 of us!<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/anniversary-fam%20pics/famblog4-1.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I got brave going outside to do this. It was only like, oh, say 40 degrees outside. This is just running out in my backyard for seriously a minute to capture some of that perfect light. I really am glad we did though because I don't know if I've ever seen sun flare that perfect. In fact I'm jealous I'm not the one who took them. ;)<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/anniversary-fam%20pics/famblog7-1.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">And while I'm at it, I'd like to share a few head shots I did of ABI several weeks ago for some new & exciting stuff she will be debuting soon!<br /><br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/anniversary-fam%20pics/ABIblog3.jpg" /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br />Isn't she gorgeous!<br /><br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/anniversary-fam%20pics/ABiblog2.jpg" /></center></center><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Thank you so much Abi for always coming out to capture our family for us. And thank you for everything you do as a friend and fellow photographer. I am so excited about what you have to share soon and what that means for your future! You ROCK!!!<br /><br />♥ Kelly </div>Kelly Beanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17655737563628632247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-681492640469765619.post-90035397272163577072008-12-04T19:56:00.004-06:002008-12-15T18:14:36.608-06:00Still Here!!<div style="text-align: center;">In case you've been wondering, YES, I'm still alive!<br />I have been dreading posting, only because it would mean I would have to face the reality of how long it's been since my last post and, well, that would be embarrassing!<br /><br />So, let's move on & not talk about that subject.<br />You're fine with that, right? RIGHT!<br /><br />So, I want to just share a few personal things, and all that fun work stuff will be coming the next weeks.<br /><br />First off, I just want to share some history. November 4th my father in law Charles Ortega was voted to be the state rep for District 52 (Altus - my hometown). This is SO exciting, not only just to see him accomplish this goal, but because he is the first Hispanic representative in the state of Oklahoma. Yeah, pretty cool huh!?!! So here are a few images from the watch party that night & also from his swearing in at the state capitol.<br /><br />I love the emotion in this photo!<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/campblog3.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">His two siblings who couldn't be there were on the phone right away. It was very sweet!<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/campblog5.jpg" /></center><br /><br /><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/campblog6.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">He's so great with people and they are so excited to have him in this position!<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/campblog2.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">My idea was to take a pic with her Grandpas... she of course can't do anything the normal way. :)<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/campblog1.jpg" /></center><br /><br /><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/charlesswearing2.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Charles got to say a few words at the induction, and like most of the grandfathers & parents, he let his favorite little person introduce herself too.<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/charlesswearing1.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">The right one she is not having picture time (imagine that!), the left one shows what she loves most. Wonder who's child she is.... !!???<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/abbiblog.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Here are some photos from our big Thanksgiving get together. My FAVORITE HOLIDAY!!! My family is so huge we rent out the Baptist Student Union to gather our families and pretty much have a reunion. It's always fun to catch up, and WOW this year my cousins really made me feel old. Several of them are graduating or are close, and it's just too weird for me that the little kids I used to babysit are now leaving home. Anyway, here's Abi playing on the trampoline with the big girls. Which makes us very nervous...<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/thanksgiving1.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">And here is my little photog again...<br />She says she wants to take wedding photos like Momma. Does that not melt your heart!??<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/thanksgiving2.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">My parents & my Aunt Carol! I love these!!<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/thanksgiving3.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">And then my Mom had the idea to give the camera a try. I set everything up for her & let her go wild. I'm impressed and must say she did a great job.<br />(you can't tell her that though... she likes to brag ;) Here are a few of her shots.<br /><br />Uncle Donnie, Uncle Greg & Tanner back there. They were trying to hang with the young'uns. ;)<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/thanksgiving4.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">My brother Tony catching a pass from Bryan. That's my cousin Amanda in the bottom right... I hear she wore everyone out. AND she's an amazing softball player (pitcher I believe)!!!<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/thanksgiving6.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">My favorite cousin Brady, which I'm sure is cracking up at something my Papa said... there's really no telling... and Uncle Mike.<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/thasnkgiving7.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Tiffany heading off...<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/thanksgiving8.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">And me! I wish you could see my belly more... and then again maybe I don't. I don't think I necessarily look too nice here, but I posted it anyway because it really shows how I feel... TIRED! I am one of those crazy women who enjoy being pregnant, but this little boy is already taking the life out of me. Seriously, the smallest things exhaust me.<br />I must say, If this is any indication of the future, I am scared! ;)<br /></div><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/me-blog.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I shot my last wedding of the year this past Saturday, and my goodness I couldn't have asked for a better one to end the year with. It was amazingly gorgeous, and well.... the post will be coming, not for a while though because I have several others to catch up on first. And just to add, Abi came along with me to 2nd shoot, and I couldn't be more grateful to have had someone with me (and especially my bff) because I don't know if I could've made it without her. THANK YOU my sweet friend! So here is a sneak peek of Shelby & Chris' wedding. I thought it was appropriate considering how FA-REEZING it is outside.<br /></div><br /><center><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kbeane/still%20here%20blog/randomblog.jpg" /></center><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Also, I had a birthday last Thursday, which I'm only mentioning because I want to thank all of my sweet friends & family for the cards, emails, comments, and texts! I am truly blessed and thankful for every one of you!<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I hope you are all having a great holiday season & staying warm! Check back in a few days for an actual photo session... or wedding... they'll be something. :)<br />♥ Kelly</div>Kelly Beanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17655737563628632247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-681492640469765619.post-10546634444603552252008-11-03T08:00:00.001-06:002008-11-03T08:00:00.451-06:00Adam + Shannon: Engaged!!<div style="text-align: center;">Wanna see a couple with great eyes??

I'm embarrassed. So what I'm going to do is cut down a little bit on the amount of images that I post, hoping that I can catch up on everything.<br />Can I just say that Sara & Ben are too cute for words! They had so many awesome people surrounding them on their wedding day & it showed that they were truly loved. This is another <a href="http://thunderbirdchapel.com/">Thunderbird Chapel</a> wedding, and it was nothing short of beautiful!
