Sneak Peek - Idaho Newborn Photographer

She's here! I did this amazing families maternity portraits at the beginning of the month, and I can't think of a better way to end the month than to get to play with teeny tiny adorable babies!










A mandolin! Isn't it cool?





Thanks again you guys! She's so beautiful!

Sneak Peek - Boise Baby Portraits

You might recognize this little sweetie - her fall portraits were on my splash page for quite a while! Today, we did some Valentine's Portraits and some Birthday portraits since she just celebrated her 1st Birthday!





She calls everything a "puppy" - even Balloons. hehe.



This one makes me laff.



Mmm. Caaaaake.



I just think she's the cutest!

In other news, I have a newborn session tomorrow that I am SUPER excited about, and plus I am doing some other "things" later that could possibly take my business and photography to another level! I've been offered an unique opportunity and will share details (if there are any!) as soon as I can! Cross your fingers for me :-)

Galleries Updated!

I've added some new images to my Maternity ("Nine Months") and Fairytale ("Enchanted") galleries - just pop over to the website - Enter - Galleries

Enjoy! I might get a the rest updated too, later.

Sneak Peek - Boise, Idaho Newborn Photographer

This sweet little muffin is only 1 week old! I'm so happy I got to meet him (and Mom and Dad) today!









I call this one "Sleep is for the weak"! He was an alert little dude.



I won this crazy hat in a contest!



We also did some photos with Daddy and his guitar, but I have a special idea for those - I will post them in a few days! Thanks so much you guys!

Sneak Peek - Tea Party Portraits in Boise

I've was lucky enough to photograph this little one 3 times last year, and she just gets cuter and cuter! She had fun having a Tea Party today with her guests - Bunny, Jojo the Sock Monkey (not shown in this peek, but they were there!), Dolly and even Twila the kitten!

Waiting for her guests to arrive:






Tea for Two?





Many thanks to Mom and Dad for allowing me to photograph her again! and many thanks to Danette - I found the table and chairs online the other night and had to have them for this session! Thanks!

Still being Dazzled - Boise Pet Portrait

I can't believe that we've had our kitten, Twilight, for a whole month already! I wanted to take a photo of her today to document how big she has gotten, but no, she wasn't having any of it! It took maybe an hour of trying on and off, a handful of cat treats, and my husband playing "cat fishing" with her from the side to get her to do ONE shot, but I got it, and that makes me happy!

Today:




1 month ago:



Isn't she getting BIG? She is trained to know her name, where to sleep (she has a variety of baskets with pink blankets in them!) and to use her litterbox.She loves her meow mix kitten food, cat treats, catnip, her mousie and to play "cat fishing". I think we will keep her!!
