Heading to Atlanta until Tuesday!

Just wanted to let everyone know that my family and I are heading to Atlanta for Easter weekend. We will be returning late Monday night. I will have access to e-mail, but not to my recent sessions. Hope everyone has a BEAUTIFUL Easter!!

Here's an image from todays PROM session - sorry I don't have more time to add more! Hope you guys are having a blast!!!

Life as it happens...

This afternoon I met with a fellow photog and her family from MI. I wasn't sure what the day was going to hold...as they were calling for thunderstorms. It was overcast and gray ALL DAY -- but when we arrived at the beach for our shoot -- the bright, bright sun popped right out *herumph*! Not only was it super bright, the wind was gusting about 30-40mph.
The kiddos -- 8, 4.5, and 2.5 were very excited to be on vacation to say the least. It was all mom and dad could do to just keep them all in the frame, LOL! Despite the elements, I think we had a good bit of fun!! I really enjoyed meeting and working with you guys. Hope you enjoy the rest of your vacation!

By this point the fog was rolling in....and the tide was rising, lol

Lovin' the interaction!!

This afternoon I met with the D family. They had the cutest little 12mo boy! He wasn't quite sure what to think about all the carrying on, ha ha. All I had to do was suggest what to do and they went with it and made it their own. I could really feel the love between these three! It was a fairly overcast gray day...with just enough brightness to make me not like white all over again, LOL!
I had a great time photographing you guys!! I hope you like these as much as I do~Nothing like holding a 20lb baby and what feels like a 20lb camera at the same time while focusing and holding still enough to get "the shot", HA HA HA!

3months already!!

I just can't get over how quickly these little doodle bugs grow! Miss K is already 3 months old and it seems like her Mommy just told me she was expecting. Poor little thing was dealing with acid refulx and colic. Needless to say, she was not the happiest of campers. Her mom and I got a method down where we would get her happy, put her down, get two or three shots taken, make her mad and pick her up to make her happy again, ha ha. Yes, it does sometimes make me feel like an evil, evil photog. We try really hard to keep them comfy and happy though.

I was there for almost three hours and was afraid that I didn't get much. When I sat down to edit, I was pleasantly surprised with some VERY cute shots of her! M, hope you like them!

Little L and her Mommy and Daddy...

This afternoon I met with 12 month old cutie pie, L...and her mommy and daddy out at Huntington Beach. We tried the castle first...but they closed the doors at 5pm (which is NOT making the photographers in my area happy at all). So we shot outside the castle for a bit. We attempted the beach...but between the harsh, bright sun and the really cold wind, we decided to head back towards the castle. Poor little L's two teeth were chattering, he he. Needless to say, I don't think they had a ton of fun, lol. I've gone through what we were able to capture and def. think they will have more fun looking at thier pictures!! Here are just a few previews from our time together~

Sydney and Savanna off to LMSC in June!

Sydney and Savanna will be heading to LMSC in June for state finals. We had to turn in our ad pages, so I thought I would share them with everyone! I created these (full page) for the girls and was very happy with how they turned out.
