Congratulations Glen and Carla on the new addition to your family!

Her family has been wonderful to work with.  The children (there were three others) are fun to interact with and they were respectful and easy to photograph even when they had to do a family photo twice in a few weeks!  They did well

This little guy came just a few days after the maternity session!  Isn’t he so sweet?! 

Well here is little C’s sneak peek!

I had the chance to chat with some brides and am looking forward to meeting with some of them to discuss photographing their weddings!  From what I understand the show was a bit smaller then last year, well actually a lot smaller!  That was fine by me because it meant that I now have four vases full of lovely roses in my house!  We tied our biz card onto a rose to give to the brides.  It was really fun!

Here is our booth!

Happy Tuesday!

What a beautiful family!

Then next week we’ll be at Stonewall Jackson Hotel.  Below is some more info about that show. 

If you or someone you know is getting married make sure you come out to one or both of these shows!  Be sure to stop by our booth!

So I have this colleague Stephanie Millner who is an amazing pet photographer currently in Italy.  I chatted with her about this session since there was to be a snake involved.  She gave me some great tips on how to make a snake calm and comfortable.  Fortunately corny {that is the snake’s name, for real} was quite happy and moved slowly and did what we wanted.  One thing she told me was to have a medic pack on hand to cool him off if he got too hyper.  So off to Rite Aid I went in search of a medic pack {I thought I knew what it was}.  The manager {I think he was the manager} helped me look and they didn’t have what I really needed.  He thought I had hurt myself or something so I said, “So this is actually for a snake…..”  After explaining myself, he dug around in a medical bin that had just came in and handed me some soft cold packs with I put in plastic bags and had on hand for corny.  How nice was that?!!! 

So any way, the snake was not the only thing we did that day.  Jack plays drums and had a really cool jimbay from Africa where he and his family lived for a while.  Jack’s little brother, Sam also did something really fun for me.  He asked if he could film Jack’s session.  He is an aspiring film maker. I wasn’t sure what to expect but what he made was really fun!  As soon as I get a copy I can upload somewhere I’ll make a post about it! 

Here are a few of Jack’s family’s favorite images!  Mine too!

Evan is such an easy going young man and he made it so easy to get so many amazing images of him so as to make his mom cry!    That is what us moms do when we see our kids grow up too fast!  I can almost see my little ones as 18 year olds sometimes.

We had a perfect day for his session.  The lighting was so sweet that I could have kept going for hours {which even Evan would not have tolerated!}  Check out his eyes….ahhmazing….

thanks for trusting me capture Evan at this time in his life, I can hardly wait until his sister comes along in a few years!
