I took these for a good friend of mine.  They are super excited to meet their little guy and make C a big sister.  Isn’t she adorable!  I can’t wait to meet him too.

Well, it’s been crazy around here lately, and by lately I mean the past year. Mostly in my personal life (new baby (3rd) + new house = very little free time for me. I’ve been really focusing on enjoying time with my family, being healthy and fit, and just living life. It’s been really nice. BUT don’t worry, I haven’t given up on photography. I’m still here, photographing babies, kids and families. I’m still teaching photography classes too. So, for now, “please excuse the dust” on the blog, but don’t be afraid to contact me with booking inquiries and workshop/class inquiries. I have a lot in the works for this 2012-2013 year. I’m looking forward to meeting new clients and seeing the old ones too!

And here’s an old favorite. Don’t forget to start thinking about those Fall Family portraits. I’m taking bookings now.

Violet’s ONE!

It might only be October, but it’s time to think about the holidays, family photos, holiday cards and gifts! Holiday minis are perfect for family photos including your little furry friends. They can include your entire family (including your pets) or just your children. It’s a great time to capture those images made especially holiday cards and those special gifts for grandma and grandpa. Don’t forget that a gift certificate for a session or even one of my workshops is also a great gift for a friend or spouse.

Details for Holiday Minis are below:

I have had this project under my belt for a long while now. It’s something I have wanted to offer, but as life got in the way, I had to put it aside. I am so excited to now offer PHOTO FUSION sessions. What is Photo Fusion, you ask? Basically it is a combination of photographs and videos of your session put together to create a story (and a piece of art). It’s one of my favorite things to do and I know you will all love it! These sessions are not your typical portrait session. They are more about telling a story, capturing special moments in a special activity with your family, or even everyday life. We could go get ice cream, have a picnic, or even capture an evening at home (from dinner to bath to jammies and storytime). It’s about having fun, being a family, and just being YOU!

Without further ado, let me introduce the Payton family and “A Day at the Park”

A Day at the Park

A Photo Fusion session includes a 1-2 hour session, a gallery of all images for print ordering, and a high definition custom DVD Photo Fusion movie in a custom DVD image case.

Violet is one of my Watch Me Grow babies. These are my favorite sessions because I get to see a newborn through their first year. I love, love, love seeing them change and grow.  It’s always amazing to see the changes and milestones.  Anyway, Violet is 6 months old and the sweetest, most content little lady. We had so much fun!

I have had so much fun getting to know X and his parents.  Watching him grow, learn and reach those milestones has been such a pleasure.  His beautiful baby blues are some of the sweetest I’ve ever seen.  Thank you so much V and M for letting me capture X’s first year.  Good luck with everything NEW coming this coming year!
