Thursday by La Brisa!

If you've been following La Brisa Photography for a while, but haven't been photographed by us, you might wonder what all the hubbub is about the word "Thursday." Well, instead of saying "cheese," we ask our clients to say "Thursday" when we want them to smile. The "ay" makes your mouth smile more naturally. I guess it has become our trademark and so each Thursday, we'll be sharing images of our best Thursday smiles!

Whitney & Josh | Attraction Session | Manhattan, KS | B & Chris

Timmy tried his very hardest to steal the show with his adorable cuteness and complete disinterest in what was happening around him. Nonetheless, Whitney is too gorgeously cute for anyone to steal the spotlight from her! B and I with the assistance of Rachel Ruffer Photography spent a gorgeous morning with Whitney and Josh at Kansas State University and then at Top of the World Park!

Thanks again for selecting La Brisa for your engagement session! I can't wait to see you in October for your big day!

B and I love shooting together because we work so well with each other and offer drastically different perspectives of a similar shot. Below, you will see numerous side by side images of how we see things and that is why you should always book two photographers for your wedding! Just sayin. =)

Megan & Dalton | Aspiring Photographer Workshop (APW) | Manhattan, KS | Chris

Every so often, I host a La Brisa Aspiring Photographer Workshop (APW) that is free for aspiring photographers who want to see how I work in a typical portrait session. We had a phenomenal group of photographers attend, some even drove for several hours and I am greatly appreciative of the turnout, the interaction and hopefully they all were able to learn a few things! APWs are just another way for me to give back with the huge blessing that is La Brisa Photography! If you are interested in attending future APWs, please request to join our facebook group ~ La Brisa Aspiring Photographer Workshop APW.

Special thanks to our newly engaged models, Megan and Dalton for being super fun, gorgeous and absolutely PERFECT for this APW!

Here are the amazing photographers that attended. Thanks again for coming!



















Here are some behind the scenes (mostly unflattering) action shots of the attendees in action!
