Before the season/madness starts in a couple of weeks, I decided that we all needed some practice. But I wanted to make it fun for everyone. SO…I recruited some willing participants, gathered up some outfits and accessories, and picked a date. This past Sunday, most (but not all) of the Klose Photography staff assembled to HAVE SOME FUN!
Our willing participants were the lovely Shalee and John. Our photogs for the day were Allison, Maureen, Andy, and myself. (I wasn’t going to shoot but who could resist. 
We had two locations and two different outfits for Shalee. John only had to change his tie. Guys always have it easy.
Afterwards, I asked everyone to get me some images for the blog and that’s what you’ll see below. And just for the fun of it, I thought that we would have a friendly contest to see which image our loyal blog readers like best. So the images are all numbered. Leave a comment with the number you like best. We’ll see who wins!

6!
Also, all of Mo’s friends have been calling her that for ages. She always introduces herself as Maureen, and it never lasts. You’re in good company, Ms. Mo’s Boss.
Sorry Cyndi… my pick is Andy!
Ok, my favorite is number 12, but since Cyndi wasn’t supposed to be taking pictures
, my second vote goes to number 7!!! 
But all of the photos are amazing!
I am going to go with #4
I think you all did fine work, but I also want to support Andy because he is the only guy!
Since when do you guys need to practice?! Every shots looks fantastic – as usual!
I like them all but I kinda liked # 7 the best with the way they were looking at each other. I don’t know it was hard to pick. They are all good.
No. 4! Maureen’s are actually my favorite as a whole. But they all look great!
these are really cool. # 4 is my favorite
Gotta go with #10…just love the use of natural light. Don’t want to downplay the others though…everyone did excellent work!
I have to vote for the expressions of adoration captured in #7.
#4 it is so gorgeous.
Sorry I couldn’t make it guys! It looks like you all had a great time and all the shots look great of course. My pick is #4…go Mo!
As the “father of the bride”, I vote for #12. Great pictures.
6 or 12…I can’t decide! but they’re all great! What a fun idea for you all to go out together and just have some fun while sharpening your skills and learning from each other!
Number 4 is my favorite! So cute! Go Mo!
Favorites- 2, 7, 6
you should have left the names out for more fun!
Number 4 is gorgeous. Go Mo!
#4 and #6 are my favorites! And… Go Mo!
I vote for #11. Thank God she looks like ME….
#7 – i love the sincerity in her eyes…breathtaking….
I love #7….Andy, you are gettin’ pretty good at this!
I’m surprised you didn’t include the broad fisheye B/W shot you’re using as your new header in the voting. That’s my favorite. The one of Andy giving instruction is the same thing, but a little tighter. I just like the image of the South and Market St Bridges sticking out either side. If I have to pick a number, I’ll say Andy’s #7. I guess I’m a sucker for the bridges. All great pictures, though. Makes me want to work on my own shooting. Maybe if I weren’t trying to do most of it in a Tractor Trailer at 55 mph…
#12 is my favorite!!! Of course, all of them are great because everything coming from Klose photography is amazing! What a fun photo shoot!!
They are all beautiful pictures! I love black and white pictures. My vote goes to the awesome picture #7. You can see both of their personalites in the close on their faces, I think its great.
