Happy Holidays!!

Whew!!

Please forgive me for not posting more often. Thanks to all of you, I have been very BUSY and that's a great thing!!

This year has been wonderful!!!

I have met & photographed so many great families, newborns, kiddos, highschool seniors (and lets not forget my faithful triplets) and I must say I'm loving every minute of it. Thanks again to everyone that supports me and allows me to be creative. One particular session that comes to mind.....the mommy said at the end of the session "Well, we'll see if there are any good ones there". I absolutely "LOVE IT" when she views her proofs and says "WOW when did you get THAT??" It's not magic, very simple really. I want my sessions to be fun, relaxed, unposed and NO saying "CHEESE":) Here are just a few (OK, more than a few) of my favorites from the last few months...

Happy New Year!!

Bad blogger!!

Well...the fact of the matter is.... I really want to have a blog, I have a lot to say and share but....I'm really a bad blogger!! Never the less, I'll work on improving this aspect of my life!

I've had so many fun sessions lately and attended an awesome workshop in Chicago and came back INSPIRED!! (I'll post those pics later) But for now I'm just going to post a few of my recent favorites.

This little guy has been in my blog before, he's an awesome little guy and has the sweetest parents. They really let me be creative and we ended up with some really fun pics of baby K. Here are a few of my favs for a sneak peek.

Thanks "J"

OK, so this has to be one of the sweetest families that I know!!

They are so in sync with each other and the love that they have for this little girl is AMAZING!! Need I say more....

I LOVED working with little "J"!! She absolutely loves the camera and is just so easy to work with.

SHE had lots of suggestions (which cracked her mom and I up) and we went along with them. We came out with some beautiful shots, thanks J!!.

I enjoyed her so much because often times I am chasing kids that are saying "NO"! Don't get me wrong, I love the challenge of that too!!

She went from the golf course to this......in just a matter of minutes.

An absolute true beauty!!

Behind on posting!!!

SO...my blog has been a little neglected lately.
I have been BUSY with summer sessions and loving it. I've worked with some of the greatest, not to mention most BEAUTIFUL kids lately.

I feel like I've had some great "playdates" and found new locations for fabulous pictures along the way.

I've also been busy giving my website a fresh new look, I hope that you like it!!

It's not too early... to think about booking your fall session. I will soon open my fall calendar, the weekend appointments go quickly so please book early.


I'll try to be a better blogger, here are some of my favorites from recent sessions....

For K

I'm posting this for a special mom that was very understanding of the fact that their session was scheduled in between two very closely scheduled trips for me. She was so sweet when I told her that it would likely take longer for me to post her proofs. I wanted to post a few of my favorites just to give her a peek!

Could they be any sweeter??

So, I'm on my way out fo town (again) I'll catch up with you next week. Thanks for understanding!

The Miracle of life... x 3!!

I have had the great fortune of working with triplets TWICE recently. Both times I've been amazed to see 3 babies. It's amazing to see how great their parents juggle (for lack of a better word) and interact with each one. Truly a miracle!! These little guys were so sweet and cuddly and an absolute pleasure to photograph... Here's a sneak peek!

Congratulations Mom & Dad, you are very blessed!!!

Sneak peek for mom!

I recently had the chance to do a session with a couple of really neat kids. Their mom asked me to do this for their dad for fathers day, so shhh!! So... while mom was at work and Dad was out of town("big kid sitter" standing by), here's a sneak peek of what we came up with.

The rest will be ready soon, can't wait to show you!!

3 reasons to SMILE!!

I recently had the opportunity to photograph 3, yes 3, little angels!! These little girls are SO beautiful and sweet. They were one day short of two months old when I was there and their due date was still approaching. Needless to say, these little gals arrived E-A-R-L-Y!!! Take a peek





Congratulations Valerie and Charlie!!

So SWEET!

This is absolutely the sweetest couple that I know. They are so in love and their love for baby K is amazing!! I have had a chance to get to know them because I did their "Birth Story" for them.

I'll have to go back and post the "Awaiting" and "First Breath" pics because at that time I didn't have my blog up and running. They are post worthy for sure!!

Baby K is already 3 months, wow how time flies. You can expect to see him every few months because he is on the "Belly & Baby" plan. For now, here are a few of my favorites from a recent session. Enjoy!

Happy Mother's Day Megan!!

Baby Blues!

Need I say more?? This little girl has the most amazing eyes! She is my daughters "best friend" Isabella. She was over for an afternoon play date and I saw a photo opportunity! I thought I'd share....

My first blog!

Hello and thanks for visiting my site. I am so excited to be a blogger!

I have had a rather productive winter, I think. I have learned how to do things (like build a web site, from scratch) that I never thought I would know how to do.

I have always loved taking pictures and now, I am turning a hobby into a business that I am VERY passionate about. I hope that you will visit my site to see what I am currently working on, and also what I have in the works. I intend to upate the blog often.

My most recent session...

I had the pleasure of working with this little gal and she was awesome!! Her hair looked soooo red from the sunlight and I love how the pics turned out. She was getting ready to turn 4 and having a Petalwink party. It was her mom's idea to have her reading the Petalwink book. We had the photo session at the "Tree House" located at "A Pocketful of Toys" and we were lucky to have about 30 minutes of really good sunlight. Take a look!
