St Louis Photographer | 10 on 10 photo | Sara Tegman Photography//10.10.11

Its a Monday, also the 10th of October. So we thought it was the perfect time to share with you are beloved group and project called “10 on 10″. This started by a friend of mine, Shannon Harrison of Jack and Ruby Studios out of Temecula, California. This project was started out of a conversation I had with her about the book, “The Happiness Project” by Gretchen Rubin, a New York Times Bestseller. The premise in Gretchen’s book is to develop skills that change your life and ultimately make yourself happier. I am normally not an unhappy person, so the book and title seemed odd at first. Just like someone who doesn’t know me or who has never met me already assumed and is telling me that I was an unhappy person, boy don’t I sound like a pessimist, HA!. The Happiness Project is nothing like that. In fact, Gretchen Rubin mentions that she, herself, wasn’t at all an unhappy person, but that she felt that she could be happier and that she was going to write a book on “how to” become a happier person in one year. One of my favorite things about this book is that it is self-fulfilling, but doesn’t fall short of helping us all to understand that self-fulfillment is not to be mistaken for being self-centered. That because we can “dig deep” and understand what things in life make us our happiest will inherently bring happiness to all aspect of our lives. Our happiness only creates and begets happiness in our lives.

Here’s to our little “Happiness Project” called “10 on 10″. This is just me, being me on a busy Saturday with my favorite people. It is a lifestyle project in which I share ten images of one day in my life with you on the 10th of every month. This is my happy, my passion and my love for photography and my subjects. If you would like to indulge me on my past few months of 10 on 10. July, August and September.

Laughter | Chesterfield Missouri Kid Photo | Fifty-Two on Friday//09.09.11

This beautiful little one needed some headshots for the beginning of her super modeling career. I am more of a lifestyle photographer, but it is always good to changes things up, especially for headshots. She was a hoot. The mom was trying to help me get her loosened up by telling knock knock jokes. She was letting out the cutest belly laughs. I love these images of the truest form of happiness, laughter and love. She was so much fun.

Please click through our little barrel of laughter this week, next stop Wendy VonSosen Bay Area Photographer.

Pretend | St Louis Childrens Photographer | Sara Tegman | Fifty-Two On Friday//09.02.11

Pretend or Make-Believe is our theme this week. Please click through the 19 photographers in our Fifty-Two On Friday group. We have some amazing talent. I wanted to simplify things a bit, but also try something new. This opportunity with my niece on the playground was perfect. She loves to swing. I asked her what she was thinking about and she said “I am pretending to fly”. I love this age. They are boundlessly energetic and happy.

Please check out Wendy VonSosen Bay Area Photographer to see her amazingly talented rendition of Pretend/Make-Believe.

Birthday Photo | Ten on Ten | Sara Tegman//08.10.11

We had a hard time deciding on what to do for our birthday bash extravaganza this year. We have three of our birthdays within four days of each other every August. This year we opted out of traditional birthday parties with friends and chose to do a number of activities as a family. We took the kids to Six Flags. Our kids have never been to Six Flags. They don’t even really know what going on a roller coaster, eating a funnel cake or downing an Icee means. Once we pulled up to the parking lot it all became clear. We went on nearly every roller coaster, ate in between while walking, hit every arcade, game, misting station and food stand. My feet were swollen, pruned up and in pain, but I wouldn’t trade that day for anything. We reconnected, laughed until our belly hurt and had so much fun. I don’t remember the last time we did this. I love my camera, but this day my pro camera just wouldn’t have made it through the Tidal Wave dry. I opted for our point and shoot Nikon CoolPix. I have to say, I was just as excited viewing and editing these images as any images I take. And this morning my oldest says “Can we go back to Six Flags again today, mom?” Happy Birthday to my family.
