Stunning mommy to be…

August 5, 2008 – 11:16 pm

I had SO much fun at this session!!  It was the first of, hopefully many, outdoor maternity sessions.  I love it when clients totally trust my creativity and just go with the flow.  Mindy was so easy going and just up for anything…I would probably be up for anything too if I looked like this at 39 weeks!  :)  (Yep, and you read that right…her due date was actually yesterday! ) I was sooo excited she allowed me to share these artistic maternity images here.  Isn’t she just gorgeous?

Mindy and Andrew…a sincere “thank you” for going along with all my crazy ideas and being so sweet and easy to work with, especially in 100 degree weather.  I had a wonderful time with you guys and can’t wait to meet that baby girl.  I have no doubt she will be beautiful.  Crossing my fingers for you that it’s sooner rather than later! ;)

I photographed this little lady last year out at Pioneer’s Park, so this time we decided to head down to the Haymarket for more of an urban look!  When she arrived, I don’t think she was too keen on the picture idea, however, once she saw my petti skirt, she couldn’t wait to put it on!

I thought this series made the perfect storyboard…one of my favorite things about 2 year olds is their adorable expressions…

…more cuteness…

Fashion Friday

August 1, 2008 – 1:47 pm

I’ve been hearing from clients already telling me how much they loved last weeks “fashion friday”, so thank you for the positive feedback.  Some of you hadn’t heard of Mini Boden before and I’m sure your wallets will be much lighter after visiting their site! :)  I can never resist either!!  If you missed last weeks “Fashion Friday”, you can check it out here.

This week we’ll feature some ideas from GAP.  Can I tell you just how much I LOVE this store???   :)

The minute I saw the “Batik Chic” collection in stores, I think my heart skipped a beat!  Actually, I photographed a client wearing one of the dresses and made a bee line to the store on the way home from the session.  ;) Choose the shoes that fit your style, and a few fun accessories always add a nice touch.  And what’s even better…..I believe this collection just went on sale!

….and for the guys…layering is totally “in” for fall fashion…add some flair by layering a striped dress shirt under one of GAP’s Junk Food Tees.  We’ll cuff the sleeves for a relaxed look! ;)

….not to smile after looking at this first photo!

It was such a delight to photograph this little guy!  He was such a little sweetheart, and once mom fed him a bit, it was lights out!!!  Here are a few of my favorites from your session, Nikki.  I had a great time meeting your family and can’t wait to watch your little man grow! :)  (And a huge thanks to Dad…for keeping big sister entertained..which didn’t prove to be an easy feat!;))

I really enjoy photographing this family…and catching up!  I’ve done both their second and third kids’ newborn sessions and their sweet mom took care of my Josie when she was in the NICU, so it always feels like photographing old friends. :)

Here’s a sneak peek for you all!  We got lots of good stuff!
