Love is in the air- Book your Couple Session

When was the last time you and your spouse were photographed?  Your wedding?  It’s time to have some new photographs taken!  In honor of Valentine’s Day we have a special priced $50 session fee if you book a couple’s session in February or March (that is a $50 savings). It’s about time for you to have more then just your kids photographs, have some romantic ones of just the two of you.  I promise this session will remind you why you feel in love and that you still are!   It makes for a great Valentine’s Day present and an memorable date night.

Snowed In

So what does one do when they are snowed in for a better part of a week with a 17 month old?  Well, when you are a photographer you grab your camera and work on some photography skills.  I am not sure if Alea was happy about being a subject especially when I kept trying to keep her in certain light however she was a pretty good sport about it.  I am always trying to challenge my skills especially when understanding light.  I took the opportunity to enjoy the amazing light the snow was casting into the window.

The Negotiator

Landry was a top negotiator at our session.  An expert lawyer has nothing on this little boy.  He would allow me to photograph him based on his locations and his ideas.  He found certain places in the garden.  He wanted to play his guitar.  He wanted to photograph me photographing him.  I think my favorite time was when he finally decided to sit in the chair I had tried to get him for the last hour, of course it became his idea to seat there.  He began talking to me and told me “When I grow up I want to be a daddy”.  It melted my heart! Regardless of where, what or how we were able to get some great moments of this a little boy full of personality.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Miss Eliza B

Eliza B loves her mama.  She was not happy if mommy had to go to tend to anything other then her.  She was not to sure about having her photographs taken naked, without anyone to cuddle or sooth her.  She was most happy with her mama doing a little ssh, swinging dance that only a mama can do to rock this precious girl to sleep.  Once asleep, she was content to let us move her this way and that as long as mama’s reassuring arms were there.  We were able to capture some great photographs of this ever so sweet Eliza B.

Being an Aunt

Jane embraces her role as an aunt to the fullest, with her beautiful nieces I do not blame her.   It is evident in the way she pours her love into each of these little girls.  They very obviously return that affection as well.   Jane is accomplished, tender-hearted, and just overall fantastic person to know, all traits I am sure the older they get the more and more they will realize what a blessing having Jane as their aunt is.

A different kind of dream

A typical couple in their late 20’s is going after the American Dream.  You know the white picket fence, the nice house, the 2. 5 kids and dog, this is not true of Travis and Kristy.  They are after a different kind of dream.  The have a heart to adopt.  They sacrifice daily in order to not only provide for their three children but for the ones they hope to adopt one day.  They are some of the most amazing people I have ever meet.  They are humble in spirit and talk about their dream and life as simply as something they feel called to do.  I was so happy to be able to photograph this wonderful family.

My Own

I am often asked about my own sweet little girl.  I have to admit her photographs are often the last on the list to get completed.  I gave myself the goal of having her one year session complete before she turns 14 months old.  I made it by a few days.  This past year has gone by so fast, and she has grown so much.  I hope you enjoy viewing photos of my baby girl as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Miss Lilly

I am amazed to have the privilege of watching this little girl grow up.  It is rather remarkable how much changes in just six short months.  Lilly’s last session was at her first birthday, she is now over 18 months old.  Lilly is now very talkative and is so bright.  She says so many words.  She is walking this time around, or should I even say running.  Her little personality is shinning through.  She learns and experiences more and more each day.  It was fun to capture the changes.
