I’m kinda unlike a lot of the other studios andΒ  photographers in that I don’t run very many sales or specials. SOOOOOO, due to many many MANY requests, I’m having a special.Β  Now that senior season is slowing and I’m gearing up towards wedding season, this is my last chance to have a sale before the Christmas rush starts again.

So here’s the dealio, yo.

The mini-sessions are for up to four people. Locations can be Willow Grove beach park, Lake Sacajawea, Tamo-Shanter Park, or at my studio!

Sessions will last 20-30 minutes.Β  It can be for a high school senior, business head shots, kids, families, couples, engagement, babies, dogs, etc!!

You can add extra people for $30 each.Β  Mini-sessions are only held during the weekdays. Do not worry, though, I will have evening appointments available for those who work during the day.

Spots are limited and will only be booked through June 18th (special is not available for sessions after that date).

creepy yet cool at the same time!

It’s been at least a month or so since I updated with photos of my own babies. I am not a diary writer or a baby book mom, so I blog about our lives. I save all of my posts so one day I can look back and read what they were up to. I’ve been called “unprofessional” for writing about my kiddos, but I’m not too worried about it. I’m a mom and a photographer, so this is just me. My kids are such a huge part of my life that I can’t imagine how boring my site would be without my random posts about them. Besides, I’ve never been too worried about what other people think anyway!! LOL!

So…. for the grandparents and aunties and uncles who are wondering what they look like now… here’s the spring 2010 update!!

I feel old.

She’s the smartest 7 year old I’ve ever met.

We just found out she made it into the gifted program in our school district!! I’m soo happy and excited for her!!!

We knew she was unlike most kids when she would hide in the bathroom late at night with the light on trying to read.

In case you’re wondering, no she doesn’t get it from me.

She writes WAY better than I do and will probably be my proofreader very soon.

Tinker.

I had to promise him another 30 minutes of playing baseball outside to get this smile.

totally worth the bribe. πŸ˜€

He loves this hat so much he sleeps with it every night.

He only wears shirts that have something to do with baseball on it.

Every waking moment he has either a bat, a ball, or a glove in his hand.

His favorite movie is the Sandlot.

Mr. D

cutest two year old EVER

(I’m biased)

Has an infectious giggle and the ability to make anyone smile at any given moment.

Loves to do whatever his big brother is doing (so currently he loves baseball as well)

LOVES to eat. Like seriously, is only one size smaller than his big brother who is two years older than him.

They currently share clothes.

I’m worried for when he turns into a teenager and brings over his football playing buddies over to eat me out of house and home.

We’re starting to save our pennies now. πŸ˜‰

Last but not least, my dog Nina. She’s rarely written about, but after watching Marley and Me and bawling my eyes out I decided to take some photos of her.

She’ll be six this next September. She’s pretty darn cute if you ask me.


My middle son is four today. He’s quite the character and has the ability to make people smile. He gives the best hugs and crawls into my lap all the time just to “snuggle.” He’s also the most strong willed child out of our three and takes a bit extra time and care convincing him that he needs to be doing something else rather than what he’s set his mind to. πŸ˜‰ You parents know what I’m talking about πŸ˜‰ hehe.

He’s very into baseball and has recently taken to sleeping with his baseball glove and ball. Apparently they will get lost unless you bring them into bed πŸ˜‰ He’s a collector of things and runs around with pez dispensers, his car collection, and now he’s working on collecting all things baseball related.

Happy birthday little man!!! I love you SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much.

It’s also the one I used on his birthday invitation. πŸ˜€
