Well, we've been busy making cookies at the studio the last couple of weeks! here's a peak at a few of those sessions. The kids always love these and have a such a great time! It's so much fun for me too, to watch how they express themselves in decorating their cookies. Here you can see that C is very detailed and careful of his design, but little sister M, well she's a little less strict on her design!

This is my little grand daughter, she's now 16 months old!

Santa's tiniest visitor!

This is tiny Lauren Olivia, she was Santa's tiniest visitor today. How sweet is that?!

and another one from today I thought was sweet... Catherine.

Update

Just a quick update, I wanted to update to show one from the Christmas set mostly, but I can't update without telling you it's been a wild and crazy 10 days. Last week my sweet little grandmother died. She was 95 and while we are all saddened, we know she is okay, and she is no longer blind or sick. I'm really doing okay so I'm not looking for sympathy but I couldn't post and not mention what is going on lately. She is the person who inspired me to do what I do! As a little girl, she shoved cameras in my hands, time after time at family events, sometimes I grumbled, but her love of pictures planted a seed in me that has grown into my ability to create for you, what you have on your walls, in your wallets and on your desks. So, it is her that you all have to thank for the images you have from me. In the last years, she could not see my pictures, but she knew they were wonderful and she knew that I was making others happy with them. So, with that said, today I did my first session since the funeral, it's so appropriate that it's a holiday picture because she LOVED Christmas!
So here's a picture to share , in honor of my "Mamommie".

November 2008

I've had a busy busy weekend! This is just the best time of the year isn't it? The weather lately has been perfect and we were blessed again with yet another beautiful weekend. Here's what I have been up too! I know a few of you are looking forward to a sneak peek, so here's just a few from this weekend! I'll have your galleries up by the 7th as promised, so for now, maybe this will hold you over!

October 2008

WOW is it really October already? I can't believe it! But I sure am enjoying these cool temperatures we are having! Here's a few from today's session, what cuties! I'm sure you'll agree!

Hallie and Houston

Little girls love tea parties like peanut butter loves jelly! So when Miss Hallie came for pictures and her Mama had a tea party in mind, it didn't surprise me one bit. She is the ultimate girly girl! As for little brother, well he's all boy and he's on the move, but when he looks at you and throws this big smile at you, well you can see that it will just melt your heart! He smiled the whole time like this so he made my job easy. Hallie of course was a little angel and did a great job with her session too, she knew her reward was that yummy cookie on her plate!

September 2008

Here is the lovely Miss Ruthie, she's almost 2 years old and is just the sweetest little thing!

August 2008

School has started and August is almost over, and this month has been filled with babies turning 1! As I look back at last year I was over flowing with newborns, and now they are having birthdays! I don't think there's ever been a time where I've had so many having birthdays in one little time frame, I am loving seeing them as they grow up and changing from babies to toddlers, it never ceases to amaze me how fast time flies and I know that all the mommies of these babies are in full agreement with me on that! Enjoy these times because all too soon they'll be skipping off to Kindergarten and you'll be wondering where your baby went! Believe me, I know all too well how fast they grow up, maybe that's why I am so passionate about capturing them while they are little because it's such a short amount of time that we have them under our wings!

Here are just a few of the birthday babies this month! Enjoy them, they just so sweet!

August 2008

I'm so excited to share this series! I LOVE these images, that pretty much sums it up, I hope to get more Mother's to agree to jumping in front of the camera with their little ones. Let these inspire you to want something as special as this with your baby from newborn up to 3 months.

Meeting little 13 day old Aidan was such a joy, his family comes to me from Plainview and I have been looking forward to his session so much. He was so good for us as we kept changing his positions and for a good portion of his session, he just kept on snoozing. Welcome to the world little man, you are a lucky little guy with a family that adores you...

July 2008

Happy 4th of July everyone! I hope you all had a safe and fun filled Holiday weekend! We stayed home and barbecued and then drove out to Mt. Harbor and watched their fireworks show. This is the 5th year we've attended so I guess it's become our yearly tradition! Here's a fireworks shots, they never fail to impress us!

June 2008

Well, it's June and school is out and everyone is busy planning vacations and enjoying the summer, well not everyone! Some lucky families are having new babies and thinking about pictures and not vacations, so I am happy to oblige. I admit we are planning our own vacation but I always have time to do the best job in the world! Here are a couple of little angels that will surely make you smile. First is Mattie Grace, no doubt this one is gonna be a little princess and she's already gotten a good start, she was the perfect little model and seemed at ease in front of the camera! hehe, it's a good thing because she's gonna be a regular around here just like big brother is!

How could I not share her with her big brother as well! He looks like he's gonna be pretty protective huh? Gorgeous gorgeous children!

Next is tiny little Landon and big sister Laney, how sweet are these 2?

And Landon with his Mommy and with his Daddy, they are such a sweet family and we took so many pictures it's hard to know what to share, there are some beautiful family images as well as these individuals. Little Landon slept the whole time we hardly heard a peep out of him.

May 2008

Here is little Tucker, I wish I could show you all of his proofs because it's just a joy to go through them, he was such a little ham, he smiled and smiled and just had the best time, we changed his clothes probably 4 times and still he kept smiling. His Mommy said he is a good baby and I completely agree, these 2 I chose to share don't even show his smiles, but they are a couple of my favorites, I might have to go dig out another one to show his cute little smile.

Okay, here is Tucker again, he just cracks me up he's so cute!

This is Plyler and his beautiful mommy, he's grown so much since I saw him last and he's quite the little man now. He was such a joy and we got so many good images of him, I know his Mommy's having a hard time picking her favorites!
