Adorable - Holding Hannah

The other day we attended Hannah's baptism. It was such an honor to see this family again in this special moment. We thank you for inviting us to attend and photograph this event!

Hannah did not mind getting a little wet at all.

Hannah with one of her good friends :) They are just too cute!

Hannah loved the paper in her presents alot.

My all time favorite pic of Hannah - she was playing peek-a-boo with me - I love how you can see her two little bottom teeth cutting through.

In Memory of Adeline

What the caterpillar calls the end of life,

the Master calls the butterfly

This morning, very early, I recieved a call that Adeline was going to make an appearance so I was off to the hospital to capture some images for her family to treasure. We knew ahead of time that her stay would be brief and we were all hoping that she would beat the odds and have a some time to stay and meet her family but unfortunately it wasn't meant to be. My heart goes out to the family of this little angel. Thank you for including me in this moment.

I'm thankful to the NILMDTS organization for putting together this whole operation that helps families capture moments with these angels. If you know of anyone who may be going through a loss of a child please direct them to this website (http://www.nowilaymedowntosleep.org/) which has a great support forum as well as has a list of photographers who will donate their talent to create memories for the family.

Top 10 of 2008 - Commitment

So here we go number 3 out of our top ten poll.

Luckily we were celebrating my brothers birthday tonight - my sister-in-law brought up the poll and asked when the next category was coming up. "Tonight!" I exclaimed as I realized it is Sunday!! Wow, that was a close one...getting it in right at the nick of time...here we go onto the ceremony...the category I call "commitment"...

Thanks once again for all the polling you guys are doing! The contest is coming along great and I'm really looking forward to the final results.

Confidence - getting Racey with Miss R

The other day I photographed my first boudoir session. Funny to be in business this long and not to have done one but it hasn't been on my agenda. When Miss R saw some photos that we did from her friends wedding she decided to give me a call. I let her know that this was a new experience for me and if she trusted me I would give her some tastefully sexy photos. She was up for the challenge and I believe that we got some great photos that fullfill my original intent. I'm sure her boyfriend is going to love his valentines day gift :)

Thanks for calling me Miss R. The shoot was alot of fun and I thank you for your patience with me and my inexperience in this area. I am really honored that you decided choose me to photograph this intimate session.

Additions - Waiting to Hold Hailey

I met up with Holly and Ryan last Friday night to do some belly shots. We were able to photograph Holly and Ryan as they were married last year and it is very exciting to see them adding to their family now. They already know that they are expecting a little girl and her name is going to be Hailey. It shouldn't be too much longer before she makes her arrival into the world - and there are already soo many people looking forward to meeting her. Holly has been having a great pregnancy and it shows in how cute she looks.
Thanks guys for including me in this special moment! I totally enjoyed photographing you guys at this exciting point in your lives. Hopefully I will see you again soon with your new addition.

What a cute Mommy-to-be - love her shirt as it says "baby makes the belly go round" :)

The matching camos are soo Ryan!

Love this tender moment.

Soo many cute pics, they fit perfect into this collage...made up in the colors of Hailey's room...
