Sniglettes of Life

Do you remember...

...the smell of your baby's newborn head?  I wish I could bottle that up!  But, this is the next best thing...It's why I do what I do!

Fall is in the Air!

Can you feel it?

Peace....

Peace....These girls were AWESOME!  Or should I say, "EPIC"?  All the cool kids are using that word now! 

When did blogging become so hard?

Maybe it happened when facebook posting became so easy.  Back to the blog, but I have to wonder, does anybody even drop by here anymore? 

Shell Creek ~ Family Time in Florida at it's Finest!

Not too much to write about here, just enjoy the pictures!

 

Sharky's Beach

I'm not sure if anything is actually in focus here?  Maybe one piece of seaoats?

I was walking as fast as I could back to my car when I snapped this picture!  I had one more location that I had to shoot, and as you can see, I was losing my light......I didn't even stop to take the picture, I just kept walking, but it was one of the first cloudy sunsets I had seen in a while and wanted to capture it!!!!  So, here ya go!!!

Art

Sometimes, the best artwork is done by our kids!  This special piece was painted with Maggie's fingers.  I hang it proudly in my office!

Carly

This is just a little something I like to call an out take!!!!  Yes, I said an out take from the session when we were trying to position little Carly in front of the camera!!!  Mom's hands are all over her, but this face is just too precious to pass up!

The Bunnies

Well, we started the Bunny Sessions here at the studio today!  I took a few test shots of the little guys!

This is Thumper.

 

And, this one has no name.  He just arrived today and Kaci hasn't had a chance to officially name him!

 

Never Seen Pictures

Have you ever open up a file of pictures, just to find one or two gems in there that you didn't know about?  Just happened today.  I was looking for some samples of canvas prints that I had taken back in November of 2007.  And there she was, winking at me.

 

It is amazing to see how much they grow and change over time. 

 

I can't believe that I've never seen these imges!!!  I can't wait to go home and give her a big hug.  I miss "babies"

 

Spring Break = Not So Much Work

Getting work done on Spring Break is next to impossible!  I do have five sessions over the break, but all the other work is kind of getting pushed aside!  I did come into the studio for a head shot session this morning.  Maggie is with me and wow, it's nice to have a test subject when setting up the lights!  The mommy in me wishes she could come to work with me every day....wait a minute, then I would never get anything done!!!!!  Here are the two test shots I just took.

 

 

I love the way that one curl hangs down, almost over her eye!  I love her so much.  We will be rollerskating later today.  The work can wait till next week!!!!!

The Test Monkey

Most days are GOOD!!!

But, some days, you just feel like the test monkey!

Great Location...Beautiful Girl

I've been photographing Kailyn and her brother since they were weeeeee little ones.  This image is from our last session together and I just love it and thought I would share! 

 

The Collage

Well, we finally got it right!  Susan's 27x30 beach collage is off to the lab!!!!  I bet she is going to love it.  It is going to be printed as a gallery wrapped canvas!!!!!   Can't wait to see the final product!

Under the Bridge

Just after school when the kids are just kids.........perfect time for a photo shoot under the bridge.

 
I really can't say that they were happy about it. 

 
They were cold and I think they were slightly embarassed to be under the bridge with mom snapping photos.

 
But I can guarantee one thing.  They will always remember these silly times and will, one day, thank me for taking the time to record these precious moments.   

 
I love my kids with all my heart and thank God every day for each of them! 

Back By Popular Demand (or not so popular demand, I'm not sure!)

 
The BLOG is back.  'nuff said?  I hope you all enjoy it and I hope to keep the beautiful pictures coming your way!
