In terms of my schedule, it’s filling quickly for the summer.  I’m nearly booked through June and have limited openings in July, due to the 4th of July holiday, being on vacation, and my beach mini-sessions.  Speaking of my beach mini-sessions, I plan on posting the date for those very soon!

Here is the latest image of my little girl at  3 months.  I still have yet to get a great photo of the three of my kids all together.  I swear, it’s harder photographing your own kids vs. photographing other’s children. :)

Finally, got her hands on some cake!

 So, poor Marty has a birthday in September.  He was celebrating his 1/2 birthday, but it just wasn’t the same… :(

Someone got into the presents a little early :)

2012 Mini-Sessions

First of all, in two weeks I am scheduled to deliver my baby.  My plan is to not take any sessions until mid-March, unless it is for my Watch Me Grow clients.  I also plan on holding a round of studio mini-sessions on one of the last Saturdays in March.  When those are announced, I’ll probably announce the rest of the mini-sessions through at least June or July.  In addition to the mini-sessions, I plan on holding my next Photo Mama class around mid-April.

Secondly, in light of the fact that we are further expanding our family in a few weeks and I still had more business last year than I really wanted to take on, I changed up my pricing structure for 2012.  It is really the only way to cut back on my workload.  As much as I love to work with as many clients as I do, it just isn’t sustainable for my business or my personal life.  I’ve still tried to incorporate discounts for returning customers and made my mini-sessions reasonably priced, compared to my full session fees.  I will be posting an updated link to my blog titled 2012 Portrait Pricing.  If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me!

I will be posting photos of our new little girl as soon as I can. :)  Hope everyone had a wonderful time during the holidays!!

This was the wedding I have been waiting for, the sort of thing I’ve only seen in magazines. All of the details were so carefully crafted and meaningfully created to suit the overall joy surrounding their day. It was an honor to have the opportunity to photograph and I really feel that the love present in everyone shines magnificently through the photographs. Please enjoy them as much as I do. Thank you, Angela and Julie; you make my job special.
