Birthday Princess

Meet Little Miss M.
I arrived at her home for her session and as soon as her Mom opened the door holding her, I just fell in love! She's like a little doll baby! She was SO sweet and good natured, and talk about one cute baby!
Little M. just turned one so these are her (what I like to call) Birthday Princess pictures. :-) So adorable. I'm still working on proofing, and I know her Mom is just dying to see the pics so I have to post a sneak peek. Sorry for the delay!
Ok, back to work for me! :-)

A senior moment

Ok, so I have officially decided that I love working with seniors! This is only my second senior shoot but it was so much fun! We went up to Heritage Park for some shots (I just love that place) and I really had such a good time taking these!

I've only just begun proofing but I'm already having so much fun with these!

Here's a quick sneak peek:

Newsletter

Hey everyone,

More pictures to share later but for now I just wanted to bring your attention to the newsletter link I added to my blog (and my website). I'm really excited about this! Just click on the link to the right to subscribe to my newsletter list. I will be sending out newsletters (hopefully) monthly just to keep everyone up to date on what's happening. I think this will be another great way to keep in touch with everyone and let you all know about what specials or promotions are happening as well as scheduling info.

Also, for a limited time, anyone who subscribes to my blog will be entered into a drawing for a free 8x10 print from your next session!!! Woo hoo!

The holidays are right around the corner so now is a great time to sign up to stay informed!

Photographer's Playground

I had the pleasure last weekend of getting together with some amazing local portrait photographers. It's so fun to hang out with people who just "get" you. :-) We had so much fun comparing equipment (I WILL resist the 5D, I WILL resist the 5D!) and just talking about fun stuff. This was all held at a photographer's home who has a back yard that would be any photographer's playground! It was fantastic! We went out to play at sunset and it was fun because usually at this time of day the kids I'm photographing are already in bed. I felt so wild and crazy being outside at 8:00pm! lol...

It sure was fun!

Double the FUN!

TWINS!

I love twins! :-)

This is the second time I've photographed these little guys and they have changed SOO much! They're one year old now and just as SWEET as can be! I can't believe what nice babies they are. It was so much fun chasing them around - and then coming home and taking a NAP! lol...

I'm still proofing but wanted to share a couple as I go.

Sneak preview

I'm still proofing this session but wanted to share a few as I know Mom is dying to see them. I had some issues with this shoot, but overall I'm pretty pleased with the results.

So what do you get when you mix an Italian Dad with a Redhaired Mom? GORGEOUS kids! These boys were so cute! I couldn't believe their eyes. I hate to say it, but these boys are gonna be heartbreakers when they're older! Lock up your daughters! lol Of course, they're such sweet and well-mannered kids too, so that doesn't hurt.

My first senior!

I did my first senior shoot last weekend and it was so fun! Talk about different.... she didn't throw a single tantrum. No naps. No snacks. And she actually stayed where I put her! lol...

I think I really lucked out by finding a senior who's not only *gorgeous* but was also so much fun (as was her Mom!). She was a natural poser which made my job sooo much easier. The camera just loved her! I even got a new prop out of the deal (Yes!) Overall, I really really enjoyed doing this and am looking forward to shooting more seniors.

I have a crazy # of pictures to go through and am still proofing, but I just had to share a few while I'm working on them.
