Creating a Wall Display

Ok... so you received your order and you don't know what to do with all those beautiful photos! Whatever you do, don't leave them in the box!!!

Pottery Barn has a great page to give you some ideas of how to display your portraits.

Who Doesn't Like FREE Things?

There is a lot in the works for 2007 - one being a Rewards Program. In a nutshell, if you place your order within a certain time frame you will be eligible to earn rewards based on how much you spend. The rewards are a secret right now (some of them are not available for purchase on their own)... you'll have to book a session to find out what they are! To keep the excitement, they will be rotated, so you never know what you might get!

Another Cute Boy!

I told you it's all about the boys lately! :)

Boys, Boys, Boys!

It seems like I've been blessed with taking lots of photos of boys lately!



It can be a challenge to photograph siblings together! Usually one is making a goofy face, or has their eyes shut or something. So I get very excited when I capture an image of both kids together looking like they are enjoying life! I love mom in the background too - just watching her active little boys.

Baby and Big Brother

W. loved his little 5 week old brother, but at age 2 was more interested in playing cars and trains, soccer and reading books!





I absolutely love this photo because it is real life! We were actually taking a break during the shoot so baby could eat, but I had to capture the moment because it shows a mom's real life with two small children!

Grab Some Hot Chocolate!

I LOVE this cold weather - it makes it feel more like the Christmas season to me. I've had a lot of brave families venture out in it for some outdoor photos. This family had the coats, blanket and each other. All they need is some hot chocolate! Speaking of, for something different, I thought I'd share my favorite hot chocolate recipe!

Fabulous Hot Chocolate (from Recipezaar.com)
1 (15 oz) can sweetened consensed milk
1 (4 oz) German Sweet Chocolate, broken into pieces

Vibrant Fall Colors

I guess I just love the colors of autumn so much because I find myself posting more color than black and white lately! Here's another cutie.
