Sweet - Sweet - Sweet - for Valentines Day!!

Valentines Day is almost here and these photos of Ella Kate just made me want to mention that we have so much to offer for Valentines.  We have photo Valentines for the kids to give out at school.  These can be obtained through a "Valentine Mini Session" or if you have had recent photos done from us of your child we will be glad to put a Valentine together for you as well.  If you are interested in a Valentine Shoot just give me a call or send me an email.  Also attached are just a few samples of cards we are offering for all of the "Sweets" in your life.

And now some with the "Grands" Valentines on them.

Miss Ella Kate

Ella Kate is so beautiful and so much fun!  She was mostly smiles for our session even though her
Mommy said she might not be.  Thank you so much for letting me photograph beautiful Miss Ella Kate and I am so looking forward to our family session with all of the (L) family in February.  This is just the beginning of the fabulous outfits this child wore for her session.  Thank you to Mommy and Aunt Allison for your quick changing abilities and all of the fun we had.

Ella Kate makes me smile too!!!

A Christmas Past

I was looking at some photos from past years this morning and thought I would share some of Drew, Bailey, Zack and Santa (my dad) from 2007. Holidays always make me reflect back on years past. Children grow up so fast it seems as if you blink your eyes and they are not babies anymore. This Christmas is special as always celebrating the birth of Jesus, remembering "the good ole days", watching children get excited about Santa and sharing the holidays with family and friends.

 

Merry Christmas from My Family to Yours!! 2011 Session SPECIAL, too!!

Christmas Time - Missing my Virginia Kiddos!!

I'm always talking about bribery with my grandchildren.  Well, this is another example of proof that it actually works.  This is a photo I took during the summer while visiting them.  After processing I decided to "Paint It".  I will have it printed onto a large canvas and I am sure my local followers will be seeing the "real thing" in the future.  One thing about being a photographer, or for that matter anyone with a camera, when you are missing the ones you love just put them on your computer to reach out and almost touch them.

As Christmas is only a few days away I wish for all of you to be able to reach out and touch the ones you love.  Merry Christmas!!!

Granddaddy - Tell Me About the Good Old Days

Yesterday, out of a sense of urgency, panic or maybe because of my Dad's illness I took my camera and went to my parent's home in the afternoon knowing my nephew Zack would be there. Zack is younger than all but one of my own grandchildren. He is really the brightest spot for my parents each day. My two daughters Michelle and Suzanne are their other two grandchildren.  Let's just say they are both still "29".  I've been working on several projects for Christmas and decided that Zack needed to have some photos made with Gone-Gone and Granddaddy. The lighting was terrible and the day outside was too cold for my dad to get out so we made the best of it. Some of the photos reminded me of the song by
 The Judd's - "Tell Me 'Bout The Good Old Days".  You can also see the slideshow at:  http://www.photodex.com/share/maureensphotography/d8b79mg4
