Little Man

Just a thought, for some reason it seems I photograph more little girls than little boys. I wonder why that is? But I'm even guilty of it myself. I have 13 grandchildren, 4 girls and 9 boys. If I have an idea or a new background I am more likely to think in terms of taking an image of one of my granddaughters. This is a shame! I must do something about this, because as evidence of just how darling little boys can be we have this image of this mega-darling little guy. A big thanks to his mom and both of his grandmas for the fun time we had creating the images in this composite.

Happy Birthday!

This darling girl turned one, she started walking early so the trick was to photograph her not in motion, although we did that too! Thanks A for continuing to have me photograph your handsome son and your darling daughter. I always get something that tugs at my mothers heart.
I like doing this blog but I have to wonder if anyone ever looks at it so I don't post much, but then I have to wonder would people look at it if I posted more often. If you ever look at this, please leave me a message so I can figure it out.
And if you are reading this, thank you!

Happy New Year

Happy New Year! I hope Christmas was great for everyone! It was for me and now we are on to the new year. Christmas as a photographer can be so stressful, I love all my clients, but trying to get everyone what they need for gifts can be tricky. But that is why I love what I do, because those images of families or two year olds or newborns are so important. This image was the inside of my Christmas card this year. I wanted to share it, it is all my grand kids. I got so many comments on this card and I appreciate every one of them. When we got done with this project the studio was a complete mess!!! My son told me, "mom, you are one crazy lady" and I thought what? surely he knew that before now. Wishing everyone a wonderful new year from the "crazy lady"

Fun in the Fall

Thank you G family! I love photographing your family and watching your kids grow up. My how your life has changed since I photographed your wedding. It's amazing how fast that can happen. The kids are darling, what fun ages they are. I am grateful to be part of documenting your life and always happy to try ideas that families have. It was a beautiful afternoon with a beautiful family!

Christmas Cards

I'm so impressed with several of my clients who are already on top of ordering their Christmas Cards, and I am having great fun in designing something special for each one. I am posting this one for D and A and their cute little guy. I photographed their wedding a few years back and I always love photographing them. These images were taken at their extended family session. I love fall sessions, I guess now it will have to be winter sessions! Thanks to all the families who had fall sessions, I'll try to post more fall images later.

My Kind of Girl!

It has been my honor to photograph this darling girl many times, she lives in my area. I photographed her sisters wedding and have often done family images for the D family. She actually came in with her older brother, because he was having his picture done. But, W, loves to have her picture taken (my kind of girl!) and we did a few shots of her. Thank you W for allowing me to play. I really like this backgroud and so did her mom L, and by the way, we did get some great images of J, the older brother, but I know W will love this sneak peak at hers.

Gorgeous Garden

Fall Family Season is in full swing. I have been having great fun photographing wonderful families! These images were done before fall color season, The B family was here from out of town visiting their family. These images were taken as part of the large family (30 people) sitting. This location is another member of their families back yard. I can't imagine the hours that the B family, especially the mom N puts in to make this yard so spectacular, but I would really like to thank them for their gardening talent, especially because I have none, so I can appreciate it even more. Thank you, thank you!
