Jester Family!

This family was so fun to shoot!  We looked around downtown Edmond to find some great colors for the background.  One of my favorite things was the eyebrows that this little girl can give:



Aren't those great??  I had such a fun time that it's really hard to pick a few of my favorites to show to you!  BUT, since I can't load all of them here on my blog, I'll load a few of my top faves.....

MOVING.....

Yes, yes....we've been crazy busy these last couple of weeks getting ready to move into our new house.  Our goal is to have Thanksgiving there.  Soooo, we're moving either this weekend or next Tuesday.  Rushed??  Yep, a bit.  But it's going to be beautiful.  Right  now, we're doing all kinds of renovations to the inside.  I've been ripping up flooring, painting, putting paper on the floors...just staying busy.  You can follow all of our renovations here.  Pardon the pictures, I had to take them all on my iPhone.....

Happy Birthday to ME!

Today, I am officially 30.  Imagine that!  Do I feel old?  No, not really.  It doesn't feel much different than 29.  My husband tried to make me feel really old, but.....not so much.  I celebrated by tearing out old contact paper from all the shelving in Josh and I's new house.  Yep, that's right, we're moving!  We found an absolutely beautiful house on 5 wooded acres that we have bought and are semi-renovating before  Thanksgiving....thus the rush to pull contact paper on my birthday.  It's ok though.  I started out with a nice Starbucks from my hubby, ate lunch with family, then went to dinner to celebrate.  Now I have all the kids in bed and Josh is back at the new house cleaning before the tile layers come tomorrow.  I think I'll sit back, relax, and...do absolutely nothing.  It's my birthday, right? I can do nothing if I feel like it.  All the cleaning, laundry, packing, editing....it can all wait until tomorrow.  Or at least until 12:01 am.......

Ben and Torie!

OK, so these are just a PREVIEW of this shoot.  Really, I had SO much fun on this shoot.  These guys were great sports.  I talked them into going downtown OKC and finding some great places to shoot.  At the end of the shoot, I talked them into getting into some fountains and waterfalls!  But, you'll have to wait to see those. :)  Here are some of my favorite photos from the beginning of the shoot.  You can see more on my website....

Kim's Bridals

OK bloggers...ready for some pictures of my friend, Kim, here on my blog???  Me too!!  We had such a fun time with this shoot.  We started in her bedroom, which had awesome light...and a beautiful bed.  Then we moved to campus corner in Norman and took advantage of some GREAT spots.  She was really light-hearted and did just about anything I asked of her.  Hopefully, we'll see more of her on here really soon!!!  Here is a small preview.  You can see the rest under the featured section on my website.

A Crimson and Cream in Burnt Orange Territory...

So, I'm in Austin, TX this weekend helping a friend of mine shoot a wedding.  It's going to be beautiful weather....in the mid-70s....for an outdoor wedding.  I think it's going to be a great day and some beautiful weather to enjoy.  I've been thinking of my husband a lot today and last night, though....He's at home with all three of my kids...ALONE.  Sounds like the first night went well.  My two-year-old slept with him in our bed - right next to him in fact.  Got to love that.  Hopefully things will go well tongith also, and he will tell me tomorrow how much he loves me and missed me! :)

The Burke Family Sneek Peak!

Aren't they beautiful??  We had to rush to get these pictures but Baby Sophia was great!  Bobby and Heather had their three kids there, and Josh and I had our three kids as well.  The four older kids didn't want to take pictures, they just wanted to play!  Oh, well, at least I got some great ones!  Enjoy!

Tyson is turning 1!




My last baby is turning one next Tuesday.  Wow.  I can't believe that it's gone so quickly.  So I have a 1st grader, a two-year old (with ALL the two-year-old attitude), and now a one-year-old.  Oh well.  C'est la vie.  I love the stage they are all at.  Some days you want them to stop growing so you can enjoy them always at this same age.  Other days I wish they would hurry and grow up so they could help me clean the house.  I guess the best I can do is to just love where we are and enjoy every single second.

Baby Daelon!


This is my cousin and cousin-in-law's baby.  He was a preemie...so TINY!  But, he sure took some great pictures.  To see the whole shoot, look at this link: on my Facebook.

It's a start...

Well, I've given in and decided that it's about time to start blogging! I know there are a lot of people out there who have started one....but this really helps keep me in touch with my clientele...right? Plus, who doesn't like to know what their photographer has been up to lately. Doesn't that just make it all the more fun and personal?

I hope so.

Enjoy the future of Miranda Kitchen.

About Me

My photo
I don't think that there is a much higher calling than being about to stay home with your children. I am so blessed to have the opportunity to work out of my home, while being able to raise my children. I also love that I have found an outlet for my creative juices! I began taking art lessons in 2nd grade, but since having my three children have not had much time to draw and paint. Photography has become my creative outlet that I needed so badly. I take great joy and pride in doing my best to capture your special moments!
