Isabell & Elijah

Here is a sneak peek from Isabell & Elijah's session.  They were so cute and so much fun.

Just look how sweet they are!

I am really digging this new backdrop.  It is perfect for solid bright colors.

This is just a little sneak peek for Mom & Dad until I have time to finish them!

Fresh Faces Portrait Contest Deadline

Just a reminder to any of my customers that wanted their childs pictures entered into the fresh faces portrait contest, I need to know what image you want sent in before the end of next week.

Chase

Aaahhhh...little boys, ya gotta love em!  Don't you just love the mohawk!  Well let me tell you a story behind this mohawk.  Little Chase decided to give himself a haircut just days before his photo session, so this mohawk was his mom's attempt of hiding his bald spot.  OMG...that was one of the funniest stories I have ever heard.  It will be a great story to tell him when he is older.

Chase was another one that I wasn't sure if he would warm up to me or not.  I love that little look he gave me at first, like yeah lady...you're not funny! LOL

Well it didn't take long for him to warm up to me.  Especially once I brought out the football and basketball.

What amazing blue eyes!  He is so cute I just want to eat him up.

(hmmm, just realized that's kind of a weird thing to say! lol)

Don't worry Chase, I won't really eat you!

(yep...late night blogging again!) :)

I love this one!

Malecha Superior Landscaping Rocks!

Pat, owner of Malecha Superior Landscaping came out today and planted 5 large trees and shrubs around my new studio.  He did such a fantastic job.  It is going to look amazing when all of the landscaping is done.  My favorite is the large magnolia bush right outside the french doors to the studio.  I am so excited to get into my new space I can hardly stand it.  I have so many ideas for inside and outside the studio I can hardly sleep at night just thinking of everything I want to do.  If only I had the money and time to do it all at once.  Aaahhhh...patience is a virtue I guess! (Unless of course there is someone out there that wants some free pictures and can make my dreams come true a little quicker! lol)

Victory!

Maybe I shouldn’t admit this but secretly I kind of love it when Mom’s call and say they want to try and get pictures of their child and then go on to warn me that they haven’t ever been able to get any good pictures of their child at previous studios.

Maybe it’s the challenge I love but then there's that fear that
maybe just maybe I will find a little kid that doesn’t find me funny. . . Impossible!

All I know is the feeling I get when that Mom leaves my studio with a smile on her face and the excitement of knowing we finally were able to capture her childs true personality!


When little Gracie first walked into the studio I thought
hmmmm...this one could be a challenge. Her parents told
me they were never able to get a professional picture of her
smiling. 

I’m pretty sure her parents were lying because
that is pretty much all we got!
 

These were the first two pictures I took.  She was a little skeptical of me at first and I didn't

dare take any of the stuffed animals away.

Aaahhh, the sweet taste of Victory! 

Where there is one smile there has got to be more!

Yep, pretty sure her parents were lying to me!

What an adorable little smile.

Really...this child doesn't smile for the camera!

Oh how I heart this picture!

And the smiles go marching one by one hurrah, hurrah!

Yep this is what happens when you blog late at night. teehee

These two have to be my all time favorite from the session!

OK well maybe there are no smiles on the last two but they are just plain sweet!

Take me out to the ballgame!

Schedule your appointments early!

If you are thinking of scheduling an appointment in May or June you will need to do it soon before all dates are taken.
