Decisions, Decisions....

Newborn sessions. *sigh* They're just so hard.
It's not the actual shoot that's hard, but deciding which photo I like the best, lol. They're all so cute and squishy and new and sweet. I just love newborns. It's interesting how someone who can't even move much can be so fun to photograph. :-)

I'm almost done proofing and I tried to narrow it down to one or two, but couldn't. I barely narrowed it down to 3 so that's what I'm showing. Some photos just scream "CANVAS!!!" to me, and there are quite a few from this shoot that do that. Again... I get that a lot with newborn shoots though, lol.
This little bonnet was an heirloom from when her Mommy was a baby. Isn't that awesome!! It's like photographing history. I love that! I like to think that these images will have special meaning long after I'm dead and gone. Now that's an amazing job!!

And I'm trying not to overdose everyone on Santa hat pics, but I just had to share this one. Isn't she adorable? Visions of sugar plums.........

Another sneak preview

This is little D... he was the winner of the Halloween photo contest. We just did his session and I'm still proofing but wanted to share a couple. He's such a sweet little thing. I did his newborn photos and it seems like it was just yesterday! It's crazy how fast they grow!

That's right!
I got to photograph a sweet, beautiful, squishy little newborn baby girl! :-) She was SOOO awesome and even sweeter than that (8 lbs of) Halloween candy I've eaten so far! lol....

This is little miss L. and she was only one week old. She was born 3 days before my birthday! Isn't that nice??

I'm sorry I haven't posted a sneak peek sooner. I'm still working on them, but I just love this session already as these are the first images I opened:

And I can't decide if I like this one better in color or b/w - I love them both!

Better late than never

I've been meaning to post a sneak peek of these as I was proofing them. They're almost done now, so sorry for the delay M., but better late than never, right? :-)

This was a really fun session. I just love shooting seniors. It's really just a totally different experience than kids and it's so interesting. And it is just me or does this girl look kinda like the girl from the O.C. - Misha whats-her-face. Don't you think?

Gorgeous girl! :-)
