Give your heart away
Tuesday, January 19th, 2010The cards are in the mail!
Thursday, December 10th, 2009I was so pleased to see my images featured on one of my client’s personally-designed holiday cards, I just had to post it. She’s so creative, in fact, that she also created her own gift certificates for portrait prints from our session to give to her extended family for the holidays! I think that’s a perfect way to share the love, don’t you think?! Thanks again for a super session, and I hope the portraits are a big hit and a nice surprise for all the recipients. Happy holidays!


Happy holiday sessions
Tuesday, December 8th, 2009Okay–catching up on previews, which are now more like beloved re-runs as these families have already gotten the whole kit and caboodle. But I wanted to share these with you as well. Thanks to all the families for making this holiday season so very fantastic. Wishing you all a very happy holiday season, and a new year beyond your wildest dreams!
I think there are never enough chubby cheeks to go around, and this brother-sister twin team has some of the best I’ve ever seen! Just loved that we had such a beautiful fall afternoon to catch all the family fun. Thanks to mom and dad for being flexible around all that rainy fall weather. Special thanks to Grandpa F. for all of your key jingling holiday spirit that made this family shine!


Lots to celebrate during this session (below) — a double birthday weekend for this brother and sister who aren’t twins (imagine that!) and a family holiday portrait session to boot. I thoroughly enjoyed capturing this very handsome family for all these special occasions rolled up into one. Especially love Miss M.’s effortless smile (takes after her mom) and please tell Mr. J. I’m so glad he “didn’t” smile…just kidding…gotcha! And I was thrilled to get a truly shining portrait of mom and dad together–when’s the last time you and yours had the pleasure?! Beautiful day, beautiful family–so happy I got to know you all better on our walk to the park!



And these three sibling superheroes (below) possessed amazing powers, and I basked in the glow of all that energy! How could I not have fun chasing super kids around their backyard? It’s just not possible I say!!! Thanks to mom and dad for entrusting me to capture all this wonderful personality, and for letting us have the run of the yard for our session. Super fun!


Gift certificates make great holiday gifts!
Tuesday, December 8th, 2009Still searching for perfect gift this holiday season? Give the very unique and personal gift of a photo session to someone you love! Gift certificates start at $350.00, which would cover a full portrait session and gift prints. Contact me by phone or e-mail today to place your order in time for the holidays–don’t wait!
Holiday mini-sessions—finally!
Wednesday, November 4th, 2009Okay, to interrupt the chirping cricket soundtrack that’s been looping on my blog lately, I’m happy to finally be rolling out some previews from the holiday mini-sessions. Thanks so much to all the families who are staying flexible about the schedule for what I think is one of the moistest falls we’ve had in a long time. Don’t get me wrong, I love rain—seriously—but it doesn’t always make for great portraits. So glad that we had a streak of sunny days to get these portraits made! There’s still a little time left for you to book yours. I’ve extended the holiday mini-sessions through next weekend, Sunday, November 8. Catch the fall colors while they last!
This mother and son are my new BFF’s! The fun started the minute we jumped out of our cars until we sped away with silly grins on our faces. Mr. E. has the best sense of humor of any 7 year-old I’ve ever met…

…and I do love a mom who knows just when to turn on “the tickle.”

So glad to have met you both, and thanks for a super-enjoyable, easy, (literally) breezy mini-session!

I don’t think it possible for this family to be any more genuinely happy. At one point, I just had to ask, “Are you guys for real?!” I’m here to tell you the answer is a resounding “Yes!” It was my pleasure to bask in the glow of all this family love, and as luck would have it, on a glowing sunny afternoon. A tribute to you all.

I personally think that happy parents make for happy kids, and this session was no exception. And special thanks to dad for helping to make those smiles shine from behind the camera (just how you did it will be out little secret!).

I think these smiles say it all. Thank you all again for a really wonderful holiday mini-session. It was so very nice to get to know you!
