Happy Family

I had the pleasure of spending some time with this lovely family last weekend. Let me tell you - I only have one child and he's a toddler. When he's with me and we have somewhere to be at a specific time, HA! If he's coming along, I will be 5-10 minutes late due to the inevitable last minute toddler-crisis that has to be resolved before we can leave. And then I show up running and looking a bit haggard and worse for wear because we are late.

These moms and their three babies were right on time, everyone looked perfect and they were quite relaxed. They should get a prize...really. I mean it. It is no small feat to accomplish that! And because they are so together, we had a great session and got some nice pictures.

I'm only posting one preview today...but I'm editing another one of my favorites from the set so keep checking back for a preview of that one over the coming weekend...



(I love how big brother has his hand lovingly on his little sister's arm!)

Brothers

These guys kept me on my toes and made me really work! But they were such a fun pair! I always feel good when I end a session and the kids seem happy. This time at the end of the session when we were getting in our cars to leave, the older brother asked if maybe I could come over for a playdate sometime. That truly made my day!

Here are some previews from our session:

Pumpkin Patch Preview

I had such a fun fun fun session on Saturday! We braved the chilly gusting wind and had so much fun playing and taking pictures at the Pumpkin Patch. Little A. was shy when we first got there, but not too long into the session, she cracked me up when she announced that she was not shy anymore. From there on out there was a lot of laughing and a lot of pictures. Such a fun session - and here are a few previews.

Update: Newborn Special & Holiday Cards

Two items on the agenda for this post...

• Holiday Cards are here! I have several holiday card designs that I am able to customize with photos from your session. A mini-catalog of designs and prices will be available in the coming weeks. If you are interested, drop me an email and I'll make sure to email you the information as soon as it is ready.

• Newborn Special! Are you about to have a baby? New parent? Know someone who is? I am offering an extra portfolio building special on newborn photo sessions and prints. Session fee waived, free 8x10 and 50% off print order. Session will include primarily newborn photos, but also sibling and family photos if desired. To qualify, newborn must be under one month old. If you are pregnant still and want to take advantage of the special, contact me now so we can discuss your due date and the best timing for photos after your baby is born.

Aside from the newborn special, I'm still offering portfolio building prices on all sessions. Please email me for information on pricing.

On a different note, I can't even say how excited I am that fall is upon us. I love this season and I was super excited to be able to break out the fall wardrobe for the little guy! And because no post should be without a picture, here are a few from my fall photo fenzy a few days ago...

(Note the bedhead in this one...we took this fresh out of bed before we ran out the door for preschool. I love the hair.)

Fun Family

I had a really fun session with this great family over the weekend. We explored every nook and cranny of the side of the park we were at - and managed to avoid all stray golf balls!

One More

I just couldn't resist sharing one more picture of this little lady.
