Availibility for the Rest of the Summer

I've been a busy bee, and I wanted to clear up some availibility issues and questions about my calendar (over on the website, scroll down to calendar)

The Week of July 27-31 I have Jury Duty (oh great, right? gah)
If I don't end up having to go, I will happily do any sessions who are available with 1 days notice on my waiting list. I will contact you.

The week of August 1-5 I am going out of town.

I am never available on Tuesdays unless certain arrangements are made.This is the day we have my Stepson.

I only do events or paid sessions on Weekends. All winning and contest sessions are done on weekdays.

Of course, I will make special arrangements for newborns and members of the Lala's Littles Plan.

Fall is coming soon, and if you want a WEEKEND appointment in October/November you'd better let me know soon!
Weekends Available:
Oct 3-4
Oct 10-11
Oct 17-18
Oct 24-25
Nov 1

I will probably be doing 2-3 sessions per day on these days for Fall Family Portraits.

Introducing: Sprites! - Boise Fairy Photographer

My Fairytale Photography is really my passion and my obsession. I've been lamenting how my family doesn't have many girls - no one to dress up. My Mom and I were playing around with the idea of introducing "boy fairies" - so we made some costumes! Here is my stepson Sky as a "Frog Sprite" - he's only 3, but what a poser. I have him trained now, I think :-)

Of course, Lala having a pocketful of smarties helps!

Imp!

My Friend Froggy

I have 2 little guys signed up to be Sprites at the event on Saturday too! I also plan on doing some of my cousins Luke and Daniel later this week, they can't wait! Of course, it's so hot out I might have to bribe them with some Frozen yogurt...

Who...Me?

Working on ANOTHER sneak peek right now, for an adorable family of four!

Sneak Peek - Idaho Fairytale Portraits

What a joy this little one was! It was great to have a little one-on-one time with one little fairy in a different location! We went to the Rose Garden yesterday, and it was just as pretty as always. I was in a vintage mood when I processed these for the sneak peek, but rest assured, regular color versions are always available also!

Enjoy!

I have several more sessions coming up in the next few days - I am excited to meet some new friends and have some fun! :-)

This is the best time of year - I keep getting to see all of my babies! This little one is special to me, because I've taken her photos SIX times in the last year!
We had a great time at the park today playing and eating lots of cupcakes.

As a surprise, here is a slideshow of her whole first year, as documented by...me!
(the photos from today are at the end, so be patient and just enjoy the cuteness!!!)
