Little girls and ruffles!

Two reasons to celebrate today...my petti skirts finally got here AND I had a little girl in the studio today to wear them! This little one was full of energy and smiles too - yay! I first met her at her newborn session. It's so great when I get to see the little ones growing up. I hope she can come back for some One year birthday cake pictures, I'm sure she'd love it!

Operation Love-Reunited

This session was a little different and a lot of fun. This couple had called me to ask if I would take a few pictures of them because he is leaving to his post in the Middle East. Not only was I so moved to do that, but they also informed me that they had just been married and don't have any pictures together outside of their wedding pictures!! Lucky me! They were so much fun to work with, they actually listened! Considering I usually photograph little children, this was so nice!

They are also the first people I have had in the studio to take part of the Operation Love-Reunited charity organization. I am part of a foundation of photographers that will photograph families leaving for their Middle East duty. This includes a complimentary photo session and also a photographic book of their images from the session. To find out more about this great organization, clickhere

Thanks guys so much for coming to the studio, it really was an honor to photograph you both. Good luck during the next 6 months and I hope to hear from you when you get back.

Starbucks Display

It's up! For those of you that didn't know, I have a display in Starbucks now though September 21st. If you are local, it's at the Tafts corner Starbucks. Go in, have a cup of joe and take a look. These are some of favorites images. I already got an email from a customer stating that she loved the images because they all seemed so natural, with real expressions. Awwww, so sweet I thought since that's exactly what I strive for.
