My Life behind the Lens

PICTURE PERFECT...

I can't believe that I have not shared this session sooner.  These two boys are so stylish, so fun, so incredibly gorgeous and some of my favorite kids ever to photograph.  I just love shooting them.  Their mom is equally stylish, so great to work with and totally gets my style.  They walked into my studio looking like they had just come off a GAP add.   Here are some images:

Here is mom and dad - aren't they a HOT little number!

Edwina and Ben,

Thanks so much for allowing me to photograph your boys (and girl).  Hope you enjoy.

TECH ISSUES...

I am experiencing Technical issues with my on-line proofing slide shows.  I have contacted tech support and they have assured me things will be up and running by this  evening.  I am so sorry  for the inconvenience.

FOR THE HILL FAMILY...

Hey Gretchen this is for you.  This sneak peek is for the Hill Family that I recently photographed.  Six cousins all together for Easter Weekend.  Five girls and one boy; and that one boy may very well be my youngest daughters first crush.

I NEED YOUR HELP...

Some classmates and I are planning our 20 year class reunion.  Yes, I know what you are thinking; I can't possibly be that old.  But the truth is I am and our reunion is in August of this year.  Does anyone reading this know of any good locations to hold the event.  We also need recommendations for Caterers and D.J.'s or a live band that will play 80's music?  Post here if you have any info.  Thanks.

PLAYING CATCH-UP ON SNEAK PEEKS...

Here are a few little cuties from a recent session.  This is little "G".  You may recognize him because I have had the pleasure of photographing him 3 times now.  I say pleasure because it is just that!  He is the sweetest, kindest little guy.  He recently celebrated his birthday and in doing what I do I always talk to the kids to get them to try and forget there is a big black thing protruding out from my face.  I asked him if he had a favorite present he received from his birthday and he said "I loved them all".  How sweet is that.  He also adores his little sister "L.G."  and who wouldn't - just look how adorable she is.

A PERFECT "N"...

I have been so busy lately and I want to thank all of you for that.  Thank you for trusting me with your children; thank you for trusting me to capture the most precious time in your children's lives; and thank you for telling all your friends about me. 

Now on to some fun stuff.  I recently had the pleasure of meeting and photographing little "N".  He wasn't so sure about me and my big black camera at first, but once I got out the bubbles he was nothing but perfect!  Perfect smile, Perfect eyes and Perfect personality.  Now with 2 year olds you never know what to expect but he took direction like a pro.  We had a great time and I am so pleased with his little portraits.  Meet Mr. "N".

SUGAR AND SPICE...

These two little girls are from a recent session.  They are always a dream to photograph.  So sweet, so cute, funny and will do just about anything I ask.  They also have the greatest parents who will go the extra mile to make sure we have a great session; (the first session dad blew bubbles until he was about to pass out and this session he got in the car and drove down to the little market to buy snacks). 
Now just look at this image.  So sweet and perfect.

Then in a split second look what happens...

This is why I love my job.  I do, I absolutely love what I do!  I can't help but smile every time I look at this image.  They are so much fun!  Here are just a few more.

Hope this post makes you smile :) Have a great day!

A SNEAK PEEK - FROM A RECENT SESSION.

Check out this little cutie.  She is a beautiful little thing, so sweet, and just check out her eyes.  You all know how I love eyes and she had some that would make you melt.  I have a feeling her dad feels the same way.

I went to school with her mama and I was so glad when she called me for newborn portraits.

My Favorite Brady...

Brady came in town this weekend so we had an early Easter Egg Hunt.

As you can see Brady loved the eggs.

Poor Brady, that  kid always has a camera in his face.  That's the high price to pay for being so cute.

Speaking of cute.....

And I saved the best for last

Color or BW?

HOLY CRAP!!

Let me just say that one more time....Holy Crap these women are gorgeous.  What fun we had with this session.  I was contacted by one of my blog regulars, Stacy, who wanted to do portraits of her, her sisters, their mom and the granddaughters.  Let me just tell you what a great group this was.  They are so much fun, full of life and personality and just look how sexy!! 

Just to tell you how much fun they have; they named our session the "va-jay-jay session".   

And here is one of the little "ya-ya's" (just to ensure the party continues)

Check out her little pigs! :)
