Two little princesses~

I had the pleasure of taking pictures of two of the cutest little girls on Saturday~ we had a fun time and I hope to get to photograph them again soon!!
Here are a couple of pics from that session- there are a ton of pics but I haven't been able to finish them all .....




There many more cute pics of these girls and now I am off to play with some more of them! Thank goodness it is a three day weekend- maybe my poor family will have clean clothes by Tues.... must pull myself away from computer................................

it was a dark and stormy night...

Ok, well maybe it was more like evening so it wasn't actually dark and it wasn't really storming so much as thundering in the distance, but we did have some really great clouds! My friend Darcey (hi Darcey Looo!!) and her handsome son Rob and gorgeous daughter Amanda came over and we had a great time taking Amanda's pictures with the thunder providing some great background noise. I tried to snap a few of Rob but he was camera shy (I did get a cute one of the two of them- I will post it soon!).

Here's a peek at a couple of the pics of that gorgeous senior~



some of the pics were made more dramatic thanks to the clouds...





but then who doesn't like a little bit of drama (except you- you know who you are!!!)

and now for something completely different....

In an attempt to keep things interesting I have been exploring non-portrait photography and I must say that while I don't love it nearly as much as people, I am really enjoying the landscapes lately. The colors in nature never cease to amaze me and it is so much fun capturing the miracle of reds and purples and yellows in my own backyard.





ok- so this one is more like a portrait~ this guy is Mr Personality- Cody, our herd sire ( well there isn't exactly a herd yet but we are confidante that as soon as he knows what to do he will get to work on that) We love this guy!!

Christmas Cards

Custom Christmas cards are here! These are all custom created photo cards printed with your favorite photo(s) from your session.I have been having so much fun with these! I am constantly working on designs but I wanted to get a couple of examples posted :

The first one is a traditional 5x7 one sided card:

This one is a double sided 5x5 card in red and gold:

and another 5x5 double sided card (I really love this size card!):


There are so many more on the way, including my favorites- the 5x5 trifold with 6 panels for maximum picture placement!

All of these cards are professionally printed and come with envelopes. The photos are printed on the actual cards (instead of the slide-in kind).

NEW FACES SPECIAL HAS BEGUN!!!

Just in time for school I am running a New Faces Special!!! I need new faces to help diversify my portfolio and marketing materials and what better way than by saving you money!!! For a limited time I am waiving the $100 session fee AND I am taking 50% off of all package and print prices! Book soon~ spots will go quickly!

Also, although it is in the 100's outside, it is time for me to start thinking about the upcoming holiday season. I will be offering a line of custom created greeting cards that will feature your pics to share with all of those not-so-near and dear. I will be posting examples of them here in the very near future. There will be the traditional size, folded card as well as some really great 5x5, trifold card with a whopping six panels to really showcase your precious pictures!! Stay tuned!!



And here, just because it is my job as a mom, are a couple of gratuitis pics of my babies... gosh I love these little munchkins~!!




This is the new street urchin look- she really pulls it off, don't ya think??
