Being a photographer I must admit that one of my greatest honors is when I am asked to photography a newborn. After the newborn session Parents are invited to take advantage of several session throughout the year.  This is so important because a baby will change so much and it is so wonderful to record each stage.

• First we photograph a newborn baby the first 10 days or so of life.
• Then again when they are holding their head up and on their belly.
• I love when they are sitting up around 7 months.  I must admit this is my favorite age and if you are only going to have professional portraits taken once the first year this is the time I would recommend.
• Last is around the first birthday. I love to include a cake and balloons too. 

I give a little discount on prints and offer an end of the year First Year Baby Album.  I can help you choose your favorite images and I will work up the design.  Once you approve it, all we have to do is have the album made.  This album will become a treasured keepsake for your entire family.  You can order one for Grandma too.  I have albums for all budgets starting at $150 for a custom designed 20 page album.  

I know it is freezing cold outside right now and the last thing you are worried about is updating your little ones' portraits.  Parents, I understand, but if you are thinking about finding a photographer or maybe I am your photographer already, let's get together. My new photography concept makes it easy for you to have fresh new portraits to celebrate a birthday or milestone.  I now offer in home sessions. I can set up my little studio right in your home or I can shoot natural light lifestyle portraits which doesn't require much more than my camera and lens.  No matter what it is your are looking for I would love to work with you to create images you will love.  So feel free to contact me and we can start thinking about how I can help you get that milestone portrait before time slips by.

So Noah's Mommy and I have this quest to try and photograph Noah every month for his first year.  We are going to try to keep close to that the best we can.  He is such a handsome boy that he makes my job so easy.  Noah's Mommy is helping me with different themes for each session and this one was Noah's 2 month session which is in July so she brought a flag for us to incorporate into his shoot.  Noah is such a happy baby and I love having this opportunity to photograph his first year baby portraits.

Wedding Photography is probably one of my most loved events to photograph.  I am blessed to have years of wedding photography under my belt and each wedding is such a wonderful experience. My memories are filled with moments I will find hard to forget. I have to admit if I had an album of every wedding to enjoy, over all the years I have been a photographer, I probably would remember far more of the special moments.

I offer budget packages that only include the digital files but I  strongly advise that my clients purchase an album package.   Digital  files are just expected these days while the wedding album is cut from the budget.  From my experience, rarely do I hear from clients who want to add an album after the wedding.  What does that mean?  They just get too busy.  They think they will get around to ordering one themselves with some online photo lab.  I don't know.  Having an album to pull out and view of the most important day in your marriage is priceless and should not be cut from any wedding budget.  So when you are planning your wedding day keep this in mind as you are making decisions on what to keep in the budget and what to leave out.  The wedding album should be a priority for every couple no matter the budget.  Have more questions or looking for a wedding photographer? Just give me a call.  I would be happy to help. 

Last week I wrote about a new baby session and I mentioned that we had an earlier maternity session.  This week I thought I would share a few of my favorite images from that session.  When we discussed what we wanted to create while planning this session, Mom had some great ideas.  We had planned on an outdoor  session but when the time came the weather did not cooperate, so we ended up doing a studio session.  She had ordered the perfect dress online and made sure she had coordinating shirts for her Husband and Son.   Her long flowing dress was just perfect and was so flattering.  I was so excited that she took part in the planning of our session.  I tried to keep that style  with their newborn session so that the images would flow when displayed in their home.  My clients love to display Lifetime images at home and appreciate that they are the finishing touch that make a home theirs.  I am so blessed that they trust me to help to create images that they will treasure for a lifetime.
