I know…

my blog is neglected. It is so sad. You know how it is when you get so behind and then you are not sure if you can actually catch up. Well, the good news is that all these clients have their galleries and most of them have already ordered in time to meet the holiday card deadline. So, these are not official sneak peeks but they are just after the fact shares.  So, enjoy the images. :)


This sweet little angel was so much fun to photograph. She did NOT want to sleep for me but we finally got her down for about 5 minutes. That is when these the above and below images were taken. This next image is my all time favorite from the session!


Next up is this darling brother and sister! She was full of expressions and I literally laughed out loud when I opened this up.

Her very handsome big brother…


Finally, I wish this was as sweet as it looks. Trust me when I say this was a SECOND in the making. Little K. was really done by this time so she was squirming all around.

This is a family who I first photographed about a year ago. I was thrilled when they invited me to come photograph their newest addition. Baby W. was a very sleepy little newborn and his brother just loved and loved on him! I adore this image…


beautiful family…

Last but not least… this very sweet family. This was the first time I had the privilege of photographing them and they were pure fun to work with.

Look at their cute little doggy who joined us for a family portrait!


Can you resist smiling when you look at this sweet boy?

That about sums it up for now. Hope you guys enjoyed all the fun images from this past week. I promise to try to stay on top of things for the remainder of the year. :) Have a great week!

good grief…

I am finding a moment to post that I am too busy to post. EEKK! I know there are people out there dying for a sneak peek… and for that I feel badly. However, I am working under pressure to get all galleries turned around by this time next week. So, I promise some posts, with images, very soon.

By the way, I pulled out all the Christmas decorations at the studio today. If you are coming by in the next few weeks it will look very cheery. I am not one for decorating before Thanksgiving but this year I gave in. There is such a short time from Thanksgiving until Christmas this year that I want to enjoy every second of it.

Speaking of holidays…anyone started shopping yet? If so, please do not tell me. I can’t think that far out right now.

When I do shop it will be on the Internet… I can promise you that! I do about 80% of all my shopping on the Internet. Ahhh- the power of the little silver keys on the computer.

Alright enough ramblings. I know this is a completely random post! Clearly, if you read the first paragraph, you know that I should be working.

Oh, and by the way, one last reminder that I am booking January 2009 now. PLEASE do not call me and beg for a Christmas session. Sadly, we are officially out of time!

Peace!

love ‘em, love ‘em, love ‘em

They came back to Atlanta just for me to photograph their beautiful family. I am honored and pleased that they like me (and my work!) enough to make the journey. This series of images of the three children are favorites! I have serious bench envy for this bench. I LOVE it so much!


When you have exceptionally beautiful parents- you have exceptionally beautiful kids. It just works that way!



The chaos of a family with three young children… not that i would know anything about that!

Finally, a family portrait…

burning the midnight oil

The countdown is on. Only three more days before the cutoff for ordering Christmas cards. It is 1:15AM and Andrea and I are working hard- just like little Christmas elves. If there is anyone out there who still wants to order cards for 2008, please call or e-mail us immediately.

I am working hard to finish proofing the eight sessions from last week. Stay tuned over the next few days for lots of sneak peeks.

slow to warm

At first, this little fella was not quite sure about me. Here I was, a stranger, with this big camera, making weird sounds and funny faces. Once mom and dad joined me in trying to get J. to smile, the little guy was really unsure about all of us. Finally, dad solved it for us. A BARK- Seriously, this little fella will smile for you if you make barking (yes, like a dog) noises. Well, good thing we had dad with us to figure that out! Who knew…


As you can see, once the smiles began… there was no stopping them!

Finally, a very favorite of mine. By this time, we could hear the neighbor’s little boy on the deck making barking noises too. Ha!! I am sure the neighbors wondered if we had lost our minds out there barking like mad. :)
