Gymnastics and Golf










The golf tournament was in July---but I just finally made a point of doing Sofie's golf portraits. We were so proud she won a first place trophy and of course she wanted some shots with that and her new golf clubs. So while we at it- put on the leotard and let's do some gymnastics shots as well. We plan to print the GOAL as a larger poster print for her room. She is very excited and I am very excited to have this checked off on my long to-do list.

7 session slots left for November

I quickly went through my November calendar and I have 7 available slots open for the rest of the year. SO- if you're still planning on family portraits, children portraits or holiday cards, now is the time to make your appointment to secure a session.

Just a reminder that I do no actual shooting in December to allow for finishing up/ editing / ordering and equipment maintenance.

As you may know, we are expecting baby #3 in February. Some of you have inquired if I'm planning on taking maternity leave. We are so excited to be having a new baby in the house...as we all know these moments are so precious and go by so fast. I am looking forward to spending time as a family of 5!

I will be taking February & March off, doing a few baby planners (possibly) in early February. If you are requiring a session during those months, please contact me now as I will be booking no new clients during that time.

Thank you!

Family Portraits
















Fall is a popular time to get the gang together for your annual family portrait. Here are just a few of the beautiful families that I've shot in the last few weeks.

Fall has fallen~




Wow, the blog has been severely neglected lately. It seems there isn't as much time lately to keep up with sessions, editing, ordering, packaging, not to mention trying to keep the house in degree of semi-order and gestating a 23 week old! It's forcing me to examine how I'm going to manage my time after baby comes- and it will be interesting. Which brings me to my point of the current schedule.
October is completely booked solid for the rest of the month and November is nearly filled. I hate having to turn people away but every year I have to do it- so if you haven't scheduled your portrait appt yet, (or know someone who hasn't) please do so this week. I take December off from shooting to finish up session edits, orders and do equipment maintenance, with a few weeks left over to enjoy the holiday with my family, so after the few remaining slots are filled in November there will be no more slots until January.


I did get my own kids pictures done a few weeks ago, and with the fall weather the way it's been I'm glad I have that done and over with. I might actually have my Christmas card ready to go by December 1. (maybe, not counting on it though). Since I haven't decided which images are going on the card- here are just a few to share. Next year adding a baby in the mix isn't going to make shooting this brood any easier....

Katey











I had lot of fun with Katey, who chose an outdoor session for her senior portraits. We tried some new spots and I think we got some awesome images for her to choose from. Here are just a few from our session-
