Back in the Saddle

So to say I have not had time to play with my camera between Grad School, Working full-time and being a mommy would be entirely true. I find most of my pictures now are not in fact off of my SLR camera but rather right on my IPhone- So since I am nursing myself back to health, and it is the holidays, I was SOOOO excited to be asked by 2 awesome families to take some photos for the holidays.
I have done many other little shoots here and there since my last blog post, I just quite frankly haven't dedicated the time to posting those cute memories- and to those cute clients/family members I apologize.

But some of these little kiddos are too cute not to share!

Two very different locations, both fun families with great ideas.  And kids that love a camera! I love when your subjects have ideas for what to do!

I really missed using my creative side! It's nice to have people who WANT you to take their picture- You'd think my daughter would be more used to it and would perform for me-- but sadly I must pay someone else for her to perform!

So needless to say, I'm trolling the pinterest boards for more ideas and plan on exercising my SLR more than I have been lately- as I sure missed her!

Gibson family

I love collages....now I need to find a lab that prints square format besides costco! These in 8x8 or 12x12 are really fun.....hope the gibsons like them!! We have over 200 shots!

Sneek Peek: Baby E Newborn

Sweet Baby E spent her first week of life in the NICU- I was so excited to finally meet her and to photograph this awesome family. I have over 200 pictures to edit,but wanted this family to see some we have captured.....

2 months!

Okay so someone explain to me how my baby was 8 weeks old on Tuesday but is 2 months old today (she was born November 9). Soooo confusing....so when she was 8 weeks old I took her photos and am posting today- so that is legit right? Obviously she is my favorite new subject as she and my camera are readily accessible to me at all times- Ironically, I assumed I'd have many more pics by now- but I have a TON on my cell phone less on my big girl camera....So here are some highlights- if you follow me on Facebook they may look familiar....

Anneke's Pics

So I took my own daughter's newborn pics....and she is slightly okay alot less cooperative than other babies I have shot- Although she is usually very alert on this particular day it was just easier to photograph her sleeping- This is when she was exactly one week old- so her due date!
