Reminder about Halloween mini sessions

"Fairy Princess"

Now that you've had more time to think of costumes, let's capture the cuteness!

Price is just $50 a child, and you'll get two darling digitally
proofed photos on a disk that you can share with others and order
prints. I'll even throw in an 8×10 print. Plan for a half hour or less.
Sessions will be here at my studio and I'll have various colorful backgrounds to choose from.

You provide cute kid in a costume. :)

Oh, baby hands! I love your chubs!

Jack must have heard me tell the doctor at his 9 month appointment,
"No, he doesn't scoot."
 "No, he can't sit up from laying down."
because he has sure made huge progress in the last couple weeks.  Jack is now sitting up from laying down with no problem. And because of this, I've caught him hunched over asleep in his crib several times.  I can only guess that after I put him down for a nap, he sits up and eventually falls asleep sitting up.  I think next time, I'll take a picture whether it wakes him or not because it's just so darn cute.
  And he's now pulling himself around the floor with his arms and pushing with his left leg.  Kind of a cross between swimming and an army crawl.  I'd say, crawling is just weeks away, and I've got to be vigilant at what he can get into.

You'd never see a baby try as fast as he could to get out the front door.

Summer in the fall

Another visit to my favorite garden.  I'm sad that it will be closing soon.
I love, love, love this top photo.  It just captures the pure delight  of this little girl who's just learned to walk.

I'm happy to be offering prints and stretched canvases to my clients.  Perfect for those who don't want to deal with the process of getting quality, professional prints on your wall.  I have found that by only giving pictures on CD, often times that's where they stay due to busy lives, and no prints are ever made.   I really would like to give my clients beautiful artwork for their homes.  Order through me and they will come right to your doorstep. No hassle.  And you'll be sure that the colors will be gorgeous.

Prints are processed on Kodak Professional Endura Lustre paper with a quality to last a lifetime.

11×14 print sizes and larger will be mounted on styrene and ready for framing. Styrene is a plastic mounting board 2mm thick.

Canvas is a traditional canvas mounting placed onto a stretcher frame to provide the highest quality available for those special, high-end prints.

Click here for all the lovely sizes and  pricing information and here for an order form.

I can also do various custom sizes, so if you don't see what you need here, just email me for a price quote.

Here are more shots at the lovely place I recently discovered.  Can't wait to have more shoots there.

“Show me your flower”…

…I said to this little girl, and got this lovely shot.  I've decided that three year olds are so much fun to photograph.  They bring realness to a photo shoot, being just who they are.  And I love the little gems we captured.

Joe and Mischele, now don't think I have all your photos done already,  :) 
I just  couldn't help but pick out a few of my favorites and proof them first.
