The worst time of the year!

OK I guess it's time to get back to my taxes.  I can't put it off any longer.  I seriously hate this time of year!
All I want to do is work on all of the cute pictures I have taken. 
I think I need help in this area. I don't think it should be this much work.
I am always so happy when I get this job done.

Social Networking

Oh my all of this new technology is making my head ache! lol

I went to a class today on social networking. It took me an entire day just to set up my facebook business page with a Welcome page. It does feel good when it finally clicks though.

Here is the welcome page I designed for my business facebook site. Please visit Cherished Moments Photography on Facebook and don't forget to like my business!

I plan on having fun contests and specials that will be promoted only through facebook and twitter.

Be there or be square! ha ha

Lonsdale Twins

I was over the top excited when Greyson and Aubrey's mom called to schedule an appointment to model for me. I asked my daughter to come up with an idea for two little twins (a boy and a girl). She blew me away with these adorable hats.

One of my goals when photographing models is to showcase new ideas, props and outfits.

This little outfit has been stashed away forever. I love how victorian it looks. It went perfectly with my little bed prop and one of the new headbands I designed. Greyson's mommy brought along this adorable hat and jacket that use to be her dad's.

Oh my, I wish I could find something like that.

Here is your sneak peek.

I have so many more adorable shots but for now they will have to wait.

Damion - Lonsdale Child

Damion was one of the little cuties that answered my call for little models.

My daughter made these adorable hats that I was dying to try out. She is simply amazing!

If you are interested in hats, scarves, buntings or diaper covers you must check out Angel Wear by Jen on Facebook.

Does it get any cuter then this?

This is just a little sneak peek from his amazing session!

Rock of Ages

Tomorrow we will celebrate this amazing ladies birthday. My Grandma, the most amazing woman I know. I adore her. She is everything I want to be. I am so lucky to be able to have her in my life yet.

Cutest little boy in world turns 6!

I can't believe my grandson is six already. Where is that pause button!

He is the only little boy I know that was born with side burns.

What a heartbreaker.

Happy Birthday to my sweet little boy.
