Justin's Session

A little over a week ago my youngest son, Justin, came up to me after a session and asked if he could do a shoot. Justin NEVER likes his picture taken. I have to struggle to get him to pose and then try to say something funny just to get him to break a smile. He’s such a handsome guy and has a fantastic smile; I don’t know why he’s shy about his having his picture taken. Here’s one I grabbed of him a few months back right before a client came in:

Meet Porter

After so many little girls this past summer, I finally booked a newborn little boy in the studio. I was excited to say the least. Meet Porter. Porter and his family came in for his very first photo shoot, and he was the perfect little guy. He was so tiny and so precious and just 7 days old.

I also took his sister Stori’s newborn pictures a little over a year ago. Even though it’s been a year, I was amazed at how big she is now! This was Stori:

And here we are with handsome Porter.

Thank you for the opportunity to capture Porter's first pictures! We had a wonderful time with his family. It was great seeing you all again, and meeting Porter.

Jayden's Trip to the Trains

I thought I would make Mondays my day to post something about me. Or my family, or travel, etc. I have it on my calendar as a ‘project’ to do for Mondays, and I do plan to stick to it! Sort of my forced time management. Ha!

It’s been a busy summer. Besides photography, I had my grandson visit for “35 days”, as he puts it. Trying to come up with things to do with a 5 year old when your summer is one of the hottest ones on record – days and days of 100+ degrees, and trying not to run out of things to keep him entertained, can be a challenge. It taught me several things: (1) make sure I’m in tip top shape to keep up with a 5 year old; (2) make sure I’m in tip

Meet Adorable Peyton

I realize it's been a month since I posted and shame on me. It's been just too busy with sessions, editing, blogging and both Facebook pages. I guess it's time for some time management training!

I've had several newborns in the studio but wanted to share an adorable 6 month old named Peyton.

Peyton came into the studio with her mommy, Amy, her Auntie, lots of props and ready for her photo shoot. Adorable as can be. Her Auntie did a great job entertaining Peyton as the session went on. I encourage my clients to bring props and was thrilled with Peyton's.

Here's a few of Peyton. Thanks Amy for bringing her in. I enjoyed meeting you all!

I'll have newborn up shortly. With all the little girls coming in, I finally booked a newborn little boy!
