Vacations & Renovations! | Brighton MI photographer

Friday, August 13th, 2010

I hope everyone has a great Friday the 13th!

I will be out of the office starting today and all calls and emails will be returned on Monday, August 23rd.

If you haven’t noticed, my blog has been showcasing my most recent sessions…and not having any sessions for a while makes me sad.  So…in order to fix that, I thought we’d do a CONTEST!

Guess how many pictures I will take while on vacation!

Here’s how it will work:
Leave a comment at the bottom of the post. You only get one guess so make it count. In your post put the number of pictures you think I will take while on vacation. The person that gets closest to the number wins! Posting for comments will close on Saturday, August 21st at noon EST and the winner will be announced on Monday, August 23rd.

So what does the winner get?  I will announce the winner along with the prize on Monday…but since school will be back in session soon…think big!

One hint just to help you along: Just this morning I took over 30 pictures of my boys while we were eating breakfast.

And…without further ado, here’s something to tide you over while I enjoy a bit of time off with friends and family.  Some of those pics from this morning.

Here’s my beautiful baby (not so much a baby anymore, but still…)

And a close-up of my older son:

When I return, there will be a new look to my in-home studio…I’m very excited to reveal that when I get back.  Please bear with me as it may be under construction for a couple of weeks…but it will be ready for Holiday portraits!

Chris’ Cake Smash! | Metro Detroit MI Baby Photographer

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

This is part two of Chris’ session sneak peek…the fun part!  We did a cake smash to celebrate his first birthday!

At first, he wasn’t too sure…but once he got a taste of that yummy frosting and the decorative candies, he went for it!

Little Chris’ Sneak Peek! | Detroit MI Baby Photographer

Sunday, August 8th, 2010

Isn’t Little Christopher SOOO adorable?  He’s got the best cheeks, the brightest eyes, the cutest hair, and the yummiest skin!

One of my FAVORITE clients to work with, Toye, brought him over for his first birthday pictures!  Sorry for the delay, Toye & Jennifer, on getting this up!  More to come later today!

I had to share this one!  He’s so cute I can’t stand it!

Captivating Caitlin! | Brighton MI baby photographer

Sunday, July 11th, 2010

Erin & Nate were referred to me by Kendra (thank you!) and I was so excited to hear that they had a little girl.  Little girls are so much fun to ‘play dress up’ with…you can put pretty bonnets on them, or headbands!

When they arrived with sweet, little Caitlin, the first thing I noticed were her big, beautiful eyes!  These are some of MY favorites from our session because of her eyes.  They’re just captivating!

Can you believe that this gorgeous family hasn’t ever had family photos taken?  Here’s one just for Erin & Nate!

And Nate was up for having some fun with his little girl!

Erin & Nate, enjoy the sneak peek!  Your gallery info will be arriving via email soon!

Happy 234th Birthday, America! | Howell MI photographer

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

I am participating in a scavenger hunt through the Clickin’ Moms community that I belong to, and I just HAD to share this picture I took.  Nicholas and I went on a field trip last night, just the two of us, and he was SO excited to “take pictures with Mommy”.

Sweet, sweet baby girl! | Ann Arbor MI baby photographer

Monday, June 28th, 2010

When Nick told me that our friend, Kevin & his wife were expecting a baby girl, I was thrilled!  Baby girls are SO much fun!  Cindy is  GORGEOUS and here are some of my favorites from her session.  She had the most amazing eyes!  Here she is with her beautiful parents!

Double the fun! | Ann Arbor MI family & baby photographer

Friday, June 18th, 2010

Susan and I met online, through a special group for angel moms.  She lost her son, Thomas, to a congenital heart defect, and now has been blessed with twin daughters, Audris & Brooksley.

To say I was honored when she contacted me to do their family pictures was an understatement; you see, she’s from Missouri and was in town visiting family.  So what a privilege I had – not only did I get to meet someone that I had previously only known online, but I got to hold and photograph her precious girls too.

Susan and Tim, I hope you like what I’ve put together for you.

I Heart Faces ~ All About Babies | Michigan newborn photographer

Monday, June 14th, 2010

When I heard about this week’s theme at I Heart Faces (http://iheartfaces.blogspot.com/), I knew just which picture I was going to use.  Remember gorgeous baby Koray?  His Mommy & Daddy are Turkish, so this pic has special meaning.  The plate is a symbol to ward off the ‘evil eye’.

I LOVE the colors in this photo:

Contest Winner! | Ann Arbor MI Children’s Photographer

Friday, June 11th, 2010

Remember my session with my Fresh Faces 2010 Toddlers Edition winner, Kalei?  I had SO much fun with her…and got some great pics.

I decided to enter one of them into Miller’s Professional Imaging’s Baby & Child Contest 2010 – they have a ‘humorous’ category and I thought this one was a PERFECT image to enter:

Here’s a link to the contest page – I entitled this image “Pouty”
