Baby, it's cold outside!

Brrr! Isn't this snow something? I'm staying warm and still editing all of the photos from next week. Most of you have your galleries complete by now, but if not you have received an email from me with a time estimate!

From Friday:


I just cannot resist babies with their fingers in their mouth, it's just so cute. That and baby feet... :-D

Today I went to my cousin Daniel's HeadStart Preschool class to talk to them about Photography. We talked about how cameras work and why people take pictures. We looked at some of my pictures and talked about what kind of stories that were happening in them. It was great fun and I'm sure I'll be back several times to visit the class and take photos of them! Here's a picture of me and them:



I have a few sessions left for next week if anyone is interested!

More new stuff!

What a week! I am a little tired, but extremely jazzed at how much fun I had this week! I did several sessions, and am introducing another new product!

This Collage features 5-6 photos (5 if name is on collage) and is perfect for older babies and kids. It can be made in any color! These are also great for sharing with Grandparents (who don't always have the room to display alot of different photos) or hanging in your childs room.

What else is new? I got a new camera! and I am itching to use it contantly, so if you need portraits, give us a try or come visit us again :-D

Time for me to finish editing photos from today - if I did a session for you this week, check your email or gallery for some new additions tonight!

New!

Well, a new look on on blog anyway. If you look over on the sidebar, you'll see a new addition to the blog, some photo galleries. Yes, I do also have galleries on my website, but these are going to be blog only and include new and different portraits! I will be changing the photos and the categories every month or so! The galleries might be a little wonky tonight but I will have them fixed by tomorrow night.

Also new - I mentioned a while ago that I now offer Canvas Portraits - and I finally
took some photos of my sample one! You might recognize the photo..
