A couple of wedding pictures

I took pictures for a very small wedding on Saturday. I always like to stress that I am NOT a wedding photographer; but these are the parents of my God son, so I made an exception. ;-) Congrats to you guys and I hope you have a long and happy marriage.

Merry Christmas!

Just a quick blog post to wish you all a Merry Christmas from my family to yours.

A last minute shoot at Marietta Square.

This was just a quick mini session today at Marietta Square. I actually got quite a few pictures that are super cute in a very short time (I think we were there 30 - 45 minutes and much of that was spent with the boys just off playing). Here are a few. :-)

Love this card!

I know you have already seen this picture; but I just love how it came out in this card, so I wanted to show it.

Some cards for this year.

As I promised the CPOMC members, here are some of the cards that I'm offering this year. These are just the fronts, all of them could also be used as 2 sided cards and I do have a back that goes with them. Please let me know if you want to do cards so that we can get them ordered right away! :-)

Santa pictures for the multiples club

Today I did holiday pictures for the Cobb Parents of Multiples Club's holiday party. Wow, that was a lot of work! I think there were 20 families that got pictures done today. Most with Santa, a few without. The kids and parents all did great! Here are a few from today, I'll have the gallery up by Thursday morning with everyone's pictures. A special thanks to Santa for making the long trip down and doing such a great job!

Hannah and the tree.

Here is Hannah again! As cute as ever. We were going for tree and Santa pictures. She wasn't too fond of Santa though. And she wasn't even too into the tree today. Her mom tells me that normally she is all about taking the ornaments; but today it took some bribing to get her to hang out around the tree. I think we got some super sweet shots though, I hope you guys like them. :-)

Senior at the Brookfield Zoo

We headed to Chicago to visit my husband's family for Thanksgiving. Everyone had a great time and I even got a chance to get some senior pictures of my husband's cousin. It was a little cold; but Olivia was great about stopping for photo opps around the zoo. And of coarse, I had to go for one picture of my husband's aunt and her three girls. Somehow I missed getting a picture with all 4 of the kids though.

Sweet sisters.

These three are just so cute! Enough said. :-)

Someone got her ears pierced...

which meant that she was willing to get her picture taken! I'll take any chance I can get to take her picture. So, while you can see her new earrings (sort of), the focus was more on capturing how excited she was today.

Three year old triplets!

I spent the morning getting pictures of these three cuties. They were very happy to hear that we were going to play tea party, and had a good time pretending to pour tea. They also got a chance to explore, jump and run. These are just the first two pictures I have gotten to. I have to head out of town now; but wanted to get a couple up before leaving. I'll get a few more up for an additional sneak peek in the next few days. Thanks for getting up early for pictures!

Just a couple of Hannah.

You might remember Hannah from her 12 month pictures - smash cake, balloons in the garden... It is hard to believe that she is almost 18 months old already! Here are a couple from today. She is so adorable! And her mom is so talented (she made Hannah's top in these pictures).

9 day old Julia.

I spent a good bit of today getting pictures of this sweet little girl. She wasn't sure if pictures were what she had on the schedule for today; but I think I managed to get quite a few keepers. John and Molly - thanks so much for letting me spend the day with your new family! I am so excited for you guys, congrats on an adorable baby. Here is your sneak peek, I'll have the gallery up soon.

Day Out With Thomas - Cordele, GA

We took the kids to see Thomas the Tank Engine over the weekend. I was a very bad photographer and did not take many pictures. Most that I did take were just snap shots of the kids having fun. I did like how these 2 came out. Thomas himself and then a butterfly (or is it a moth...) on some flowers near the train. If you have little kids and have not taken them to see Thomas I highly recomend it! At least in Cordele they really do it up. There is a ton of free stuff to do with the kids - hay mazes, bubbles, face painting... and then there is Thomas, the highlight of the day.

Breaking out of my comfort zone.

A photographer friend invited me to a "shoot out" last week - lots of photographers, a few models, a studio... let's see what happens. I was way out of my comfort zone. Shooting adults with no kids present? Oh my! Studio lighting? Oh my! It was a great experience and something I definitely want to try again. Here are a few of my shots from the night.

Christmas Special!

It is hard to believe that Christmas is almost here! I have four slots left for Christmas sessions at a special rate. This year I am offering on location (of your choice) shoots for $200 which include 25 two sided photo cards and three mini brag books (they make great gifts for the grand parents). That is a savings of $110.00! In order to guarantee that your cards will be back in time for mailing, these sessions must be done no later than November 15.

If you are looking to do a holiday session without cards; but will need to have the pictures back in time for giving at Christmas the session would need to be done no later than November 30.





I thought it might be good if I edited this post to show what a "mini brag book" is. Here is an example of one I recently did. These albums hold 9 pictures. For the special you will get 3 copies of the same album. I will work with you to determine which pictures from your session work best and what color will be best for the album cover.

McLean's 3 month pictures

I can't believe McLean is already 3 months old! It seems like just a few weeks ago I was posting his newborn pictures. And boy has he grown. He has all these adorable little rolls and such cute chubby legs. Here is a sneak peek in color, I'll get a black and white one up soon.
