Happy Holidays!

I just wanted to drop a little note and update you all. My shoulder surgery went well, but recovery has been a bit more rough than anticipated. I will be back into the full swing of things just after the first of the year. I will be out of town over Christmas break, but will be checking my email if anyone needs to contact me. Once we move past the Holidays I will be on the prowl for some gorgeous newborns to be my poster itty bittys with some great discounts on birth announcements and your photo session. So, if you are or know someone who is expecting in Jan-Feb who wants sweet pics in the first few days/weeks this could be you! More info on that to come. Finally, hoho and merry merry. Stay warm!

Reminder

Well, I hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend! Now that things are winding down (or picking up for the next holiday), I thought I'd post a bit of information. I wanted to get out a reminder that it's not too late to order your cards for this holiday season. There is also still time to order prints to put in with your letter if photo cards aren't your thing. I will be unavailable starting this Friday (Dec. 5th) through the following Monday (Dec. 8th). I will be back in the office starting Tuesday, December 9th, if anyone needs to get ahold of me. Now, a post isn't a post without a photo. I spent Friday and Saturday of my holiday weekend shooting this beautiful couple's wedding and reception. Aren't they gorgeous!? More to come...

and more...

We got so lucky with this family's shoot. It was raining on the way there, while we were walking under a bridge to get to the tracks, and just as we left. The rain stayed away while we were actually shooting, though. It was windy and a bit chilly, but these guys were such troopers. Well, we got it done. Such a contrast in the kiddos eye color. Just beautiful!

Oodles and Bunches

No, I did not fall of the face of the earth. I do have a few sessions to add, which you'll be seeing over the next day or so. Referral cards are in, so let me know if you want some. First off is a wonderful family I met up with a few weeks ago. Their children have the most amazing eyes, so big and full of wonder. If you ever happen to be in my office, you'll see a couple of there pics up.















Next, we have an adorable set of four siblings. I think they're the cutest in the world, but I may be bias. Of course, there are none of the four together. That would be asking too much. I love the candid of baby "E" with her super handsome daddy. The mommy of this group was mostly behind the camera the whole time and she wouldn't dare post any of the couple pics when she wasn't. You might say she's still a bit self conscious since E's birth ; ) One could call them the inspiration behind the madness, or the other way around!

Love and Laughter

I photographed this wonderful family a few weeks ago. They were so much fun and it was next to impossible to narrow down their images! Be grateful for this post, I originally had about 20 of my fave images selected. You'll also see them featured in my card collection. What great sports they were! Yes, I'm behind on my blogging. Yes, I'm trying to catch up.

Finally, all done and ready for you just in time for the Holidays!

Just click on the image to see it larger. All colors and text are customizable, including the font, so these could even be baby, graduation, or wedding announcements. Tell me what you think and email me with questions or to order. I hope you like what you see!

Card Teaser

Here's my first little fun holiday card. The text and colors can all be customized, so all the cards could be for any occasion. Tell me what you think and contact me for ordering and pricing. Hope you like this and what's to come!

Excuses and card info...

I know I haven't posted the holiday card info, but I have a somewhat decent excuse. I had surgery almost two years ago on my right shoulder after a car accident and my tendinitis is back. Therefore, I've been limiting my computer time to the necessary photo editing and session prep (my right arm is my "mouse" arm). I just got a cortisone shot this week so I should be good to go for more comp time by this weekend. Yes, I am still fully capable of taking pics so don't worry there. Just think of me as an injured athlete who plays through the pain ;D. Honestly, I arrive at a shoot and I get in the photo zone. I just love what I do! I'm almost set to unveil the holiday templates, so keep watching. I will say that if you've had a session in the past six months, you can save on your card order (up to 30%). Thanks for your patience and understanding, I appreciate it!

Precious

I'll let this pic preview do the talking...

Senior J

This senior has to be one of the most fun teenagers I have ever met! He's my senior rep for CFHS and his shoot was such a blast. I won't post the most goofy pics (I won't embarrass him like that). I took these pics a few weeks ago, but as always I'm behind in posting. I've had a hard time picking which pics to post, so here's a bunch. Thanks for a fun Saturday morning and enjoy this last year of high school!

Seven

The beautiful mom of this gorgeous family warned me of an unwillingness to smile in the presence of a camera before we started. I think they did pretty well. Besides, with the natural good looks and love this family has you don't need a smile. Thanks again!

Six!

I snapped some pics of Little B a couple months back (the hand holding session). Now I got all his sibs, too. These guys were so much fun! They're all sooo photogenic and they were having so much fun together. I just followed them around and they pretty much made the pics happen. I love having a hard time picking what to post. The girls just loved the camera, they cracked me up! Congrats on the Eagle Mr. Z! Thanks for the fun time!

Busy times

I would like to apologize to everyone looking for a new session post. I've been so busy lately (thank you!), but I promise you some new session posts in the next day! I still have some fall sessions available, so shoot me an email if you like what you see. Seniors, contact me for special senior package pricing. Be sure to check back for the announcement of my HOLIDAY CARD special. Thanks!

Oh So Blue!

I have never seen a family with more amazing, blue eyes in my life! No, I didn't enhance them. They really are just that gorgeous. Thanks for contacting me. It was a blast!
