Valentines...

I wanted to share some of the images from the Sweetheart Sessions that I ran last week.  This group of four siblings came to my studio on Friday.  Thanks again Amanda bringing them in!!!

During my sessions the camera is really secondary.  Of course I do my best to encourage a child to sit in a way that is best for the light and there age.  However, I really like to let my subjects take the lead.  You get the best shots that way.  Case in point...this pose and bit of flare was NOT prompted at all!!! Love that about you McKenna!

Sometimes a simple prop and some chit chat will bring out their personality.  Aidan you look like a total rock star!!! 

Although, this is not your classic ear to ear grin...I tend to favor these type of images.  I must have my trigger finger ready because three year olds are fast.  I think Miss Stella looks angelic in this one. 

Even faster are this variety. She is the type that has to take the lead!  However, when I asked her to give Mommy a kiss she came through with flying colors.  Mwahhhhhh!!!!

Amanda, thanks so much for being a part of this promotion and sharing your kids with me!!!

CLOTHING SUGGESTIONS:

Because the background for this session has a pattern to it, solid clothing is best. Also, it is good to choose clothing that is in the same color family as the back drop. For example, red, tan, creme, brown, black and soft pink (not bright pink). You will be happier with your images if you stay within this color palette. Stay away from greens, blues and yellows. Feel free to bring hats, scarves or other accessories that add to Valentine theme.

Sweetheart Sessions....

I am soooo excited to announce a little Valentine's special that I will be offering on January 27 and January 28th for 10am to 3pm each day!  Each session will be 30 minutes and 1 to 5 children may attend.  I will post ALL the details on Friday January 20th in the morning. 

If you would like to reserve a spot fill out the very short form at the bottom of this page.

I am excited to announce one more thing. These sessions will include a frame from my new frame supplier The Organic Bloom. I am in love with these frames and think that they compliment any home decor.

Here is a sample of what the Sweetheart Sessions will look like...and the package will include so much more!   

Just Meredith...

Look who is seven months old and so pretty in purple!  Meredith's Mom has a picture of each of her four older children on her wall at home at 7 months old.  It was Meredith's turn in December and I was happy to help.  Thanks so much Ms. Meredith for visiting me again.

These little studio session are so fun. I have several backdrops available to compliment your child's outfit.   It is fun to add props and have a creative theme.  All the kids who have come to my in home studio have enjoyed their moment in the spotlight. As the cold and rain settles in for the season I will be offering more of these types of sessions.

I go hop, hop to the sweet shop...

This little ladie's nickname is Lollie. Therefore, I wanted to do something special for her two year old birthday pictures. We met at a candy store in Portland. But it wasn't just any candy store. The owneres have the place all decked out with candy decorations inside and out. It looks like a gingerbread house or something out of Hansel and Gretel! So much fun!

This type of session is a stylized session. We started with a theme in mind and found a location that matched. What is so fun about this type of session is that the sky is the limit and creative possibilites are endless.

I want to thank Lollie's Mom for being up for anything for Lollie's session and helping me scout out the perfect spot! It is always a pleasure to work with you Julie!
