Kristen's Sweet 16th Birthday

On Saturday, August 9, I photographed Kristen's 16th Birthday Party. Nicole, Kristen's mother, went all out and had a large banquet room reserved and a live DJ with an excellent lunch provided to the guests.

As you can tell from this picture, Kristen is a beautiful girl and one of my favorite models.

One of the most moving moments of the party occurred when Kristen received a quilt made from her father's shirt. Her father is no longer with us and it was an emotional moment for Kristen and her family.

The party started at 12;30 and went until 4:30 in the afternoon. The buffet style lunch was excellent and there were small candy gifts for the little kids at the tables and by the cake.

After lunch and gifts, there was a lot of dancing until everyone was exhausted!

This shot was near the end of the party with everyone looking on as Tabitha teaches Kristen how to kick.
