Keeping up with technology is ... fun...frustrating...time consuming....and I am sorry I don't keep up with my blog. I just post as much as I can to Facebook, so if you're checking in here for the latest news, well, I can't promise I'll keep up to date, but just jump on Facebook, and there you will find the most current images. 
2011 was the year our oldest son Andrew graduated from high school. 2013 is just around the corner, and now our youngest son Clayton, is graduating. While I am so excited watching what my boys get into, I am also sad as their childhood is gone, and I sincerely love being a Mom. I couldn't have asked for two better kids, and I am truly blessed. 
So right now, you're gonna want to see some images of my boys right? Well, I will post some images of Andrew from his senior year, and I haven't taken Clayton's just yet, but there will be some images here of him too. 
Enjoy looking through the "Siders Seniors of 2013" and "sigh" with me.

Well, much has happened since this past October, and for those of you who don't follow me on Facebook...PLEASE friend me and get connected!! You can reach me through my Siders Photography Facebook page, or my personal Facebook page (Lisa Anderson Siders). I post a lot more there than on my blog, and for that, I am sorry for neglecting my blog!

So a brief "catching up" is in order.

October - end of BWYAA football season

the passing of my sweet Father-in-Law, Jim.

November - loads of family pictures taken for Christmas photos

December - loads of ordering for Christmas photos

January - basketball season continues!!

So, I will post some of the images that I have taken since last fall, including seniors and families here. Don't forget - friend me on Facebook!!

BWYAA (Big Walnut Youth Athletic Association), has been my "Saturday" home for about 10 -11 years now. Clayton started playing flag football when he was 5 years old, and I beganphotographing the league when he was 7 or 8. Over the years, I began getting "action shots" of these football players and cheerleaders. Sunbury is a great community, and I love these kids and this football program, as it is where Clayton began his football career. Loadsof memories and while Clayton no longer plays football, I am enjoying the memories I capture for these kids still today. So for those seniors and families that I try and schedule in between football games on Saturday's during prime fall season, you'll see why I hate to miss any of this action. Just a few images from our "mud bowl" games on September 24th. Oh...how I LOVE football!! This day was any photographer's dream for pictures.

So congrats to the class of 2011. You made it. Can you believe its over? I can hardly believe it myself, that our Andrew is 19, graduated from high school, and now on to the next phase of life. It has been quite a journey. With that being said, its on to the class of 2012...in the photography world! Here are a couple of my first seniors of 2012. Enjoy your year! Those of you who are thinking...I need to call Lisa and book my session...DO IT NOW! Call me today at 614-805-0117!

HAPPY 2011!!

Oh my goodness, have I ever lost track! I try to keep up with Facebook posts, updating my website, and I have completed neglected my blog. I am so sorry, and wanted to wish you all a happy 2011. We were able for the first time in over 2 years, to take a couple of quick family photos for our Christmas card this year. So, just thought I'd start the year off right by posting my beautiful family. I love them all, and so thankful God gave me each one of them!

SIDERS SENIORS

Beaches, trucks and ballerinas.....just a few of the seniors "likes" that I have liked photographing. Nathan with his scuba gear, and wakeboard, Elijah with his infamous truck, and Megan with her dance. Such a wide variety of their personalities, and I just wanted to showcase some of their images with their interests. Just to let you know, I am currently photographing the outdoor sessions of their portfolio at a different location for each senior. A lot of you have asked if that is difficult. Why yes, it is, because it lengthens the session time, but my goal is for you to have your own unique, custom designed session. Why is that such a big deal? I want for you to have your own location, so that when you share your images with your friends and family, everyone will be amazed at the variety of your images, and that they won't look the same for any one senior. It has been challenging, but loads of fun, and I believe the results are worth it. Will I go to your favorite location? Absolutely!! Give me a call and we'll get you scheduled.

SENIOR BOYS!

I grew up with three older brothers, and Steve and I have two boys, so I feel very comfortable photographing these young men, and have even shed a tear when I'm done. I've known these kids for 12 years or more, and they have grown up with our Andrew. So forgive me boys (men), for being so emotional, but I just can't express how photographing you for your senior year, brings so much happiness to my world, and seeing how you all have grown into the men that you are! Here are a few more boys (again~men) in my photographic world!

2011 SENIORS

As most of you know, this year of graduating seniors is very special to me, as my first son will be graduating in 2011. I have enjoyed the few seniors I have been privileged to photograph so far, and am looking forward to those coming up to my place in the next few months. Dylan started my "male" seniors with more than I could have imagined. This guy could model for any company out there, and do quite well. We had a ball, and also glad he's one of my boy's long time best friends. Good luck Dylan, Mama Lisa is proud of you!

2011 SENIORS!!

I can hardly believe this is happening in my life,

but 2011 is when our first son, Andrew, graduates

from Worthington Christian High School!!

This is going to be a very bittersweet year, but the

thing I am pumped up about is the seniors that are

going to experience a SIDERS SENIOR SESSION!

I'm blowing the sessions out of the water, and I had

my very first customer this past weekend, and I think

you'll agree that we're pulling out all the stops!! I must

admit that I wanted to photograph my own son as my

"FIRST" 2011 senior, but he is away on a missions trip.

What better person to photograph, than my very own

cousin, Renee. Mom "Rhonda" decided that she wants

a 4 SEASONS photo session. First season~summer, and

we're going to keep getting better and better. You can book

your session too, and I promise you that I will make your

session unique!

SUMMER WEDDINGS!!

Gotta love taking wedding pictures at The River Club, downtown Columbus. I don't photograph a ton of weddings, so when I do, I absolutely love the great venues, but especially love the outdoor weddings! Abby is the daughter to friends of ours, and I had the pleasure of meeting her a couple of times, but really got to know her and new husband by photographing their

wedding! She is completely laid back, Josh forgot something pretty major when we were getting ready to photograph the two of them together, and I kept Abby busy taking pix. When he arrived back to the River Club with the rings, well-it worked out perfectly! Take a sneak

peek at their wedding.

2010 SENIORS!!

Yes, I am squeezing in a few more seniors who are set to graduate in June! These pictures of J. are great. We had so much fun!! I had driven underneath this bridge in Sunbury and said to

myself, "self-I want to do a senior picture there". Wah lah....2 days later, J.'s Mom called and wanted me to photograph her daughter, and I knew right where I wanted to go!! BEAUTIFUL GIRL!!
