John Family

This session was done this past summer....back when I was REALLY bad at posting anything to this blog! :) I wanted to post a session of a family at the Boneyard. It's always fun to do sessions here, and I think the pictures always turn out great.

Mildon Family

This is my husband's brother, Bryce and his cute family. Baby Eliza is the newest member of the family. She was such a good sport, as was her big brother, Dale.

Bryce

This little sweetie was so good for his session! He gave me a few glances directly into the camera and even started to bable to me once!

I actually want to put up a couple of more pictures from this session, because we got such CUTE ones that are really different from my usual! Anyway, I wanted to get these up quickly first. I am putting up a pre-editing image along with a colored and fully edited version, and a black & white and fully edited version.

Christmas Cards

Well, I'm changing my special that I have running for the last couple of months. I actually should have thought of doing this a while back, since we're already so close to Christmas! Oh well! Better late than never, I guess. :)

So, my new special is that with your session, you will also receive 25 - 4x6 photo christmas cards. These can always be upgraded to a larger size, or even if you would like to have them printed on cardstock, a folded card, or whatever you'd like!

Here are a whole bunch of templates, which can be customized so they say anything you would like.

Carson

This little cutie is my nephew. He did such a great job! He was very cooperative and smiled lots! He just didn't like sitting on the hood of the firetruck.....must be scared of heights like his dad. :)

Madeline

This little beauty is Madeline. She was not finding my effort to make her smile very amusing! Even with a serious face, I thought these pictures came out so nice. Hopefully for her 6 month session she'll laugh at least a little at my singing. :) She finally gave a few smiles when her daddy joined me in acting silly. My guessing is that she's daddy's little girl!!

Zoe & Peyton

These adorable twins have been getting their portraits taken from me since they were newborns. Even though I see them practically every 3 months, it always seems so crazy how much they've grown!

Cooper

We got some great shots of little Cooper, that is, until his parents wanted a shot with an outfit on him that had feeties in it. This little boy already knew, at only a week old, that he did not like things on his feet!! He screamed and screamed. Needless to say, we did not get any shots with the outfit!

Weston - 6 Months

So, I have a photographer friend who always asks me why I don't post on my blog. Honestly, I don't know why! I just seem to have so much going on that I never find the extra time to do anything with it. Every once in a while I decide that I'm going to be really good at it and start posting every session, but it only ever lasts a few! Well, I have decided that again!! I'm going to start posting at least one or two pictures from every session. Hopefully this time it will last for more than only a few posts. :)

Anyway, so this session was done a few months ago for Weston's 6 month portraits. He is one of my Baby's First Year babies. With every one of these babies, I am always amazed at how much they have grown between the sessions. This little boy just keeps getting more and more handsome!

Wall Display Ideas

I am SO excited about these wonderful wall display ideas that I purchased from my good friend, Ashlee. She is so talented and has such amazing design ideas. For any other photogs out there that need these wall display templates, her site address is: www.gradybugdesigns.etsy.com

I hope this helps all my clients with ideas on how to display their portraits! It sure will help me! :)

****UPDATE****
I have moved these templates here (which is on my website).

Maddy's 1 Year Portraits

Okay, so on Maddy's last session, which was her 9 month session, I had put that it was her one-year. I can't believe I did that! I am so sorry!! Anyway, this is her actual 1 year session. Maddy was a beautiful newborn, and has gotten even more beautiful with each session that I see her! I decided to play around with a new damask paper set I bought and created a storyboard of her. Oh, and this pettiskirt she is wearing is her own, although, I absolutely fell in love with it, and just purchased one yesterday. So, anyone wanting pettiskirt pictures, I now have one for you to use!! :) Happy 1st Birthday, Maddy!!

Jesse & Allison

Jesse and Allison were such a fun couple to photograph. We went out to the Boneyard aka: Neon Sign Graveyard and did their couple's portraits. There were so many that turned out great that I had such a hard time choosing which ones to put up here on my blog!

Congratulations on your marriage, Jesse and Allison! :)
