Archive for December, 2011
As the day after Christmas is winding down, my house is finally clean again (well, cleaner than it was after Christmas morning). The recycling bin is full, the leftover cookies are disappearing fast, and the kids are still on their Christmas high from all the late nights and presents. We spent the day playing with their new toys, making room for all the new toys, and making a huge pile of items to bring to GoodWill (had to get rid of stuff to make room for all the new goodies). I took most of December off to enjoy time with my family, get my holiday shopping done, and take a much needed break. I did schedule a few sessions this month, and now that Christmas is over, I’m ready to get back in the swing of things! First off – getting caught up on my blogging. Starting off with Claire’s 9 month session. Love the pig tails!!! The weather lately has been beyond awesome (I’m not one who was hoping for a white Christmas – I’m totally fine with a 40-50 degree brown Christmas). There was a tiny bit of snow on the ground for this session, but we still managed to get outside for a few family shots. Even Bruno the boxer made it in for some pics! I hope you all had a fantastic holiday – looking forward to 2012!

So, I stayed up late two nights in a row working on what was going to be the most awesome Christmas card in the history of Christmas cards. Beautiful, ornate, 5×10 with a pearl finish. Yep, it was going to be gorgeous. Then I realized that Christmas is only a week away, and these things don’t even come with envelopes. By the time I actually got them out Christmas would be long over and my clients would all think I’m crazy. *sigh* I think next year I’ll start working on these in, say, August? I’m horrible with getting out Christmas cards on time (but I am going to do my Christmas shopping today!). Rather than let this awesome card go to waste, I thought I’d at least post it here for you guys to see. Merry Christmas, everyone, and have a great 2012!

I always love seeing this family.
I met Ethan about a year ago when he was just a week old. Now he’s one and on the move! Unlike his 6 month photos seen below, his plan for the day did not include sitting still for pictures – LOL! We were still able to get some adorable shots, and it was even nice enough to go outside for a little bit! Can’t complain about this fall/winter so far. I wore my flip flops to drop the kids off at preschool yesterday. Can’t say that happens too often in December!
Enough talking – here is Ethan! Some photos from his newborn session, his 6 month session, and his latest session at 1 year.



And I had to include this one because his expression cracks me up. I think he was about done with me at this point.

I finished up with Leela’s session a little while ago, but I am finally getting around to posting some photos. You might remember her from her newborn photos (seen here). She has already had a few haircuts since then – more than my almost 3 year old! This girl has some awesome hair! I fully expect it to be down to her knees at her 6 month session, pending no further haircuts.
She was so full of smiles, and I loved all of her different outfits. We had so many cute photos that it was hard to choose which ones to post, but these are some of my favorites. Enjoy!

Just wanted to post a couple of quick photos from Amilia’s newborn session before I head out the door. There were SO many cute ones (always seems to be the case…), but these are a couple of my favorites so far. I’m sure there will be more later, but here are a couple for now. Enjoy!
