Miles and KristenSummer 2013 Patrick Ranch Engagement Photos "True love is friendship set on fire." -Laura Hendricks When you meet two people as loving and kind and funny as Miles and Kristen, you will find your life is blessed.
We know that sometimes you just have to do it. You have to throw away fear and doubt, take more risks, and walk towards your dreams.
For months now, we have been dreaming of connecting with more of you; photographers, entrepreneurs, and dreamers. On November 12th at 10:30am we will be broadcasting live from our office to answer many of your questions.
Questions about photography (About the technical side, the creative side, anything you want to ask) Questions about running a business (the financial side, creating systems that work, how to build a business) Questions about working with your spouse Questions about finding a balance in work and life The questions are up to you...
We can't promise that we know all the answers, but we can promise to be honest. To share real life stories, failures and triumphs. To engage in candid conversations about being a business owner. Our goal is for each of us to walk away encouraged and inspired.
The nitty gritty details: The live broadcast will happen on Tuesday, November 12th 10:30 - 11:30 am PST Meet us in your office, or home; anywhere with a computer, internet and of course a good cup of coffee :) Please email your questions beforehand to kimberly@kstonephoto.com There will also be a live chat room during the broadcast where you can interact with us and each other. Our Livestream Event will be located HERE

See you soon friends! K and K
Well here we are, it's already Friday, which means it's time for us to share some of the highlights from our week:
We are finding that most of our days begin long before the sun comes up. This is only because Parker loves the five o clock hour. If you know anything about me, you know that I am not a morning person. I didn't even know it was possible to function at this time of day ;)
Enjoyed seeing quite a few friends this week. With life being so crazy for us, I feel like all of our visits were long overdue. Feeling thankful.
I think it's safe to say, we are loving every moment of these gorgeous fall evenings here in Chico.
As some of you may have seen on Facebook, we found the biggest spider EVER last night . I would show you a picture, but I can't even stand to look at it. This is scary stuff, people.
It was a big week for Parker: He started eating cereal and crawling. Goodbye old life. The adventures have officially begun :)
Shot a lovely family session last night. Which reminds me, we are booking fall portrait sessions -- please email us for details.
Went to the dentist this week and had no cavities. Bring on the candy corn... (In case my dentist is reading this, don't worry, I always limit my intake to one bag per week ;) )
Dreaming about our next trip to Cannon Beach. We just got home last Thursday, and already miss our favorite place in the world.
And in case you missed, we shared some big announcements on the blog this week. (see posts below) #kstonenews
Well, have a great weekend friends! We might get really crazy and carve a pumpkin :) K and K and P

As most of you know, we love adoption! We are so thankful for the many organizations that support orphans and birth parents, and provide resources for families looking to adopt. Adoption is beautiful and life changing.
For anyone who has ever invested in our work, we want you to know that you were a part of a bigger story. Because of you, we were able to adopt our son, Parker. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Thank you so much.
For our future clients, we want you to know that 5 percent of every dollar you spend, will go towards adoption and orphan ministries. We are very excited about this!
So will you join us? Join us in loving orphans around the world. Join us as we give to something bigger than ourselves. We can't wait to see what happens! K and K and P
Since the day we started, Kenny and I have always photographed weddings together. However, many of you know that for the last eight years, Kenny has also worked full time in ministry. Last month, things changed for us when Kenny knew it was time to step out of his position.
Sometimes God calls us out of our comfort and stability. He calls us to take great risks. He is always asking us to do something bigger than ourselves. And deep down, we know we were made for this.
So here we are today: After months of praying, discerning, and talking to others, Kenny and I begin a new chapter of our life. We will work full time, as photographers. We will plan together, dream together, succeed together and at times fail together. We will spend more time pouring into our clients and creating beautiful photographs. We will spend more time with Parker. We will spend more time doing what we feel called to do. It is exciting and terrifying.
So, as we take this risk, we realize that no matter how hard we work, we are not in control. It's a vulnerable place to be, but the best place to be. Ultimately, we are praying that God takes our dreams and our hard work, and ignites this business to do great things.
Feel free to join us. Like we always say, your support means the world to us, especially in this new season. Much Love Friends, K and K and P
