My Dear Friend

I did a shoot for a dear friend and former co-worker yesterday. It was a pleasure to capture these memories of her pregnant belly! She's absolutely beautiful!
Can't you just picture big brother giving his sister a hug!

Baby TJ-3 weeks old

This bowl was passed down to TJ's mom from his grandmother. It makes for a sentimental picture as well as absolutely adorable!

I've wanted to do a picture like this for a long time, but never planned ahead to get a blue bow. I purchased one from my local florist and will be able to keep it forever.

It's so funny how TJ seemed so tiny until I placed him in this toy wagon! He's the perfect Christmas baby!

Can't you just imagine how he looked in his mommy's womb!

The Davis Family

Family Feet

It's moments like these that I love to capture for people. Baby M's hands won't stay little forever, but atleast mom and dad will have pictures to remember how little they once were.

Sometimes the best pictures aren't made up of smiles and giggles.

A sweet moment between daddy and baby M.

Photo Books

Fall and Christmas were very busy for me as you can tell from my lack of entries. I had lots of great shoots and other projects such as making books for clients. A great way to perserve your photos is by having books made of them. Think about where all your pictures are. Maybe they're in scrapbooks, photo albums, a drawer, envelopes or boxes. My parents have a box FULL of pictures from my and my 2 brothers' childhood.
I would love to help you perserve your memories in a safe, organized and creative way. They can be on a disk or I can scan your pictures. This way you can also have a CD of those pictures. The prices vary so contact me if you're interested. I can also make books of shoots, so don't forget about that!

Winter Promotion!

I am excited to announce that during the months of January, February and March, photoshoots for infants ages 2 weeks to one year will be 25% off the original sitting fee! So if you have a newborn or intend to get pictures of your little cutie before he or she turns 1, now's the time!

Be sure to check back for Easter picture promotions!!!

The Gift of A Memory

I had the honor of taking the Special Ed. senoir pictures last year for the high school at which my husband teaches. Some of the kids looked normal, but a few others were profoundly retarded. That was the most touching shoot I've ever had. I remember tearing up as I watched the parents doting over their grown child. I was so blessed that day. What I didn't realize is how blessed the parents were. I gave them the opportunity to experience a dream they had for their child. They wanted the same opportunity for their child that the "normal" kids were getting at that time in their lives. I realize now that I gave them more than a sense of normalcy, I gave them a memory. You see, 2 of the boys whose pictures I took died recently and the family's used their child's graduation picture on the front of the program for the funeral ceremonies. I'm so touched that I could provide them with a special way to honor their child's memory forever.

Family Fun

I had the pleasure of taking pictures of this sweet family this past weekend and had a wonderful time. I never know what to expect when working with kids, but I know that and I enjoy the challenge. Thank you K. and L. for giving me the opportunity to work with your family.

No posing was necessary for this precious shot. I love the look of sheer

glee as C.'s 13 year old brother swung her around on his back.

This shot wasn't planned. It just happened and I love that!

The innocence and pure joy of a four year old.
