Sia's 1st Birthday

I had the pleasure of shooting a 1st birthday party for little Sia on Saturday. She truly was a little birthday princess, just as her special hat said! All of her family and friends came out to celebrate with her, along with Mr. Richard and an awesome clown that did ALL kinds of balloon creations. Little birthday girl fell asleep shortly after eating her cake, but woke up just in time for some dancing and to give me some great smiles before the end of her big day :) Hope you enjoy being one, Sia!

Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes.....

Family Photo Shoot at Casa Feliz

Here are some shots from a really cool shoot at Casa Feliz in December (still a little behind on my posting, I KNOW lol). These are three grown sisters and their mom and dad! How sweet is that? They were great to work with, what a fun day!

Love this one - how PROUD does Dad look? Awww......

Something Special

I did a little mini-session with baby H a couple of weeks ago. I also did his newborn (and mama's maternity) photos, so I love seeing how much he's changed in just a short time. What a handsome little man he is. I also did a 10x10 birth board (mounted on styrene) for his nursery - check it out! I will be posting many more of these in the near future. If you are interested in commissioning a piece of artwork from your portrait session, please contact me for pricing info. Everything is custom made and designed (by yours truly) so they really are unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that can be made in a variety of sizes, colors, designs, layouts, etc.

Christmas photo shoot with my boys and our Christmas card

I really wanted our Christmas cards this year to be something special, showcasing both my photography and my incredibly, undeniably adorable kiddos. So, I decided I would take my OWN children out for a little photoshoot. Let's just say I am now well aware of why parents HIRE a photographer to do their family pictures, LOL. Owen was all over the place and Jack was just over it. period. I did manage to get some good ones that I ended up using, but my boys definitely brought the lols and then some in order for me to get them. I admit, I did a little photo editing on the Christmas card pictures, but for some reason, i just couldn't bring myself to photoshop the dirt, scratches and mystery "wet stuff" (drool? water from the fountain?) off of O's little face in the rest of the pictures ;)

Jack may need a few pointers on being "subtle" lol

No words for this face - it's precious to me!
This one too :)

And ..... finally some card-worthy shots
