Thank you to everyone for making 2007 such a great year! It was my first year in business! And I just can't wait to see where 2008 takes me!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas from my family to your!!


(our actual Christmas card!) A few days late!! But better late then never, right?? If it makes you feel any better, I don't think my family received theirs until yesterday!!

Like I Said...

Like I said, I've been photographing a lot of bellies lately!

It was not the warmest day to be running around with belly showing but we found some great spots and got some cute shots! I love the rustic feel of the barn doors!

Another Baby on the Way!

I've had quite a few maternity sessions in the last few weeks!!

I shot my first baby shower and maternity combo for a friend of a friend last week (still trying to catch up on my posts!!). I love the idea and I am planning on offering it as a package, I just have to work out the details.

We began with a maternity session about an hour before the party at the house the shower was to take place. This was convenient because it gave mom-to-be something to do and the hostesses were able to finish up last minute details. After we were done and the guests began to arrive, I stayed and photographed mom-to-be with her guests, opening her presents, playing games and enjoying the afternoon.

Here are a few from the day as they celebrated the arrival of "Baby N":

One Well Loved Baby Brother on the Way

The "M" family is expecting a new member at the end of December and let me tell you, he will be one well loved little guy! His 3 adorable siblings couldn't get enough of kissing and touching him- and he hasn't even arrived yet!

We did the shoot at their house, which was a nice relaxing change from the beach- and I think it helped make the kids feel more at ease. They were a busy bunch! I probably should have bumped up my shutter speed more! Here is a quick peak:

A One of a Kind Wedding

I was asked by my mom to photograph the wedding of two of her friends. They were going to have a civil ceremony before Christmas and a more formal church wedding sometime in the spring.

Let me tell you, it was one of the most unique weddings! It was so sweet! Both are in their 80's and widowed for a number of years. She had told my mom that she never imaged that she would ever marry again but she found her prince charming. And he just radiates kindness. Here are a few from their civil ceremony wedding.

Crazy time of year!

I have been so busy with clients and my own family that I have not taken the time to post anything in the past few weeks! So I will try to catch up!
