{Cutie Pie!} Harford, Maryland Custom Child Portrait Photographer

Posted on September 6, 2010

Another gorgeous day in Maryland! Still loving it….and loving another adorable repeat client, little Miss N.
I photographed her for the first time a little over 3 months ago and I was so excited when her mom contacted me after her first session for another mini session for N’s 1 year portraits.

She was a bit apprehensive the first time around back in May, but this session she shined! Of course she was equally as cute and photogenic both times, but she definitely gave me a lot of great eye contact at this mini session. She was so curious–about ME, and about everything around her. It is always sweet to watch the little one year olds just take in the world around them….literally. N definitley wanted to munch on some rocks and leaves-lol!

Anyway, thanks again for a great session. I LOVE, LOVE watching these munchkins grow up in front of my lens. Hands down my favorite part about what I do!!

Enjoy…comment away….she earned it!

This was a really cute little wishing well on the property where we took pictures.  I have SUCH a sweet one of her next to the whole thing, but on the blog, she was about the size of an ant-lol.  Seriously, it was huge compared to her, and it looked tiny before she stood next to it!

This one Mommy called, “wash your hands!” SO cute!

Well…it’s about time! Some cooler weather came through our way this weekend (perhaps Earl is to thank for that), just in time for a wonderful 3 day weekend. I mean, these two are wearing TIGHTS…yes, I said tights–and they were actually comfortable in them, not warm. It was even a bit chilly with the breeze (okay, okay I might have pushed it a bit there…).

So as you know, I just love return clients, and these two blue eyed cuties are just that! I photographed them a little over a year ago when their youngest gal was just about 9 months old. My has she changed, and what a sweet little disposition! Not dainty–all about the dirt–an explorer–(should have seen those white tights after the session) and a very CUTE one at that. Big sis is becoming, well, a girl…almost a little lady! She started kindergarten this week, and she wears it very well!

I am scaling down sneak peeks to 4 again. I know, I know–it was fun while it lasted, wasn’t it? should we call it a “summer thing?” A few reasons for this: I was giving so much away–where is the fun when the gallery is released?? Also, my fall session schedule is about to blow up. I am so busy these next few months….my blog won’t be able to handle all that action–lol. I know it will be hard for me to ONLY pick 4….but I can do it!

The free 5×7 print for clients who get 15 comments right here on their blog post is still “a go”–so go at it!!
These two are too stinking cute not too!
THANKS!

It happened again! I had another one of my newborns from last summer–she’s now 15 months and just adorable!

Miss H arrived bright and early for her photo session, along with her wonderful parents. I just love her little hair style–short and sassy–just like her. We spent the morning exploring the park in the lovely freshly cut dewy grass. It was a little overcast, but not too hot yet, which is always a good thing.

Her session is looking so cute. The family shots really make me smile, especially the one where her parents are lovingly kissing her cheeks. Just look at her little fingers wrapped around Daddy’s (hey isn’t that supposed to be the other way around?). :)  My other favorite shot is the one where she’s standing up on the picnic table in her pink dress.  Literally, she had just gotten dressed, Mommy arranged her barrette just so,  and I was really loving the light.  I politley asked Dad to step out of the frame, she smiled at me, and viola!  Sometimes I get lucky and it happens just.like.that.

Thanks so much for yesterday! I feel blessed and honored to capture these little people as they grow and change over the years. It makes my heart happy. Enjoy….

(yeah yeah–I know you know–but new readers might not so)—15 blog comments gets this super fam a free 5×7 print! Lend a hand if you please!

…and just a look back at what a difference a year can make! WOW!

{Three is a magic number!} Harford, Maryland Custom Child Portrait Photographer

Posted on August 17, 2010

I am a child of three, and secretly I am pretty sure I always thought I would have three of my own (who knows, right?). This mom told me that going from one to two children is harder than going from two to three…

When we met up in this family’s neighborhood last night it was a little overcast, but as our session was winding down the sun came out and wow….what a great location for some evening sunset light.

These are some seriously beautiful children, right? I am in complete awe and amazement over the oldest child’s gorgeous head of hair! The middle child, and only boy, was also donning some of those pretty curls. Baby “L” was your standard youngest. We toted her around, and she was pretty much content to just “be.” What a sweetie pie.

After a hot and sweaty session, we ended the evening at the playground swinging! Big sis was learning to pump, little “L” preferred to sit still in her swing, and “B” explored the tunnel like any little toddler boy would. Life’s good!

Great meeting you guys! Thanks for a sun session! Enjoy the sneak…and as always, 15 blog comments gifts this fam a 5×7 print! You know you want too….

{Two Princesses!} Harford, MD Newborn Custom Portrait Photographer

Posted on August 5, 2010

Anyone who knows this Momma knows how fitting that blog title truly is. The big sis in this new family, A, has always been referred too as “the princess,” and she has more than enough pink to prove it!! I have photographed her on many occasions, and it is always a pleasure (for me and my portfolio).

Enter…another Princess…and another A! She was sweet as can be and pretty much let me do my thing. Well, okay, she wasn’t thrilled with me moving and posing her, but she didn’t put up much of a fight either!

We even got Daddy in on the shoot today! Can you guess which picture is “his?” If you know him you can (pssst–it’s the very last one)! I seem to have a new found obsession with my old fruit crate these days…and A’s (yes–that’s two A’s plural) Daddy had a crate of his own…a bit smaller than mine, but she fit right in under a pretty willow tree. I love the shot we got, and am most happy to do something special for this now VERY outnumbered Dad!

Mommy, your princesses are both beautiful and darling. Thanks for letting me spend this morning with you guys, and ….I guess that makes you Queen!!

Enjoy…xo!
And of course, if you read this little post–share some love with the T fam and comment here! 15 gets them a free 5×7….help them out!! Mommy comments on here a lot. THANKS!
