Holidays Make the World Go 'Round...and Pictures

Wow! February has been quite a fantastic month. Boudoir portraits took off this month, just in time for some special hubbies out there. Valentine's Day was spent making treat bags and spending some time at school with my little boy. HE WILL BE 5 THIS MONTH!!!  A few cake smash sessions here, a few ladies there. Now I am preparing for the big FIVE party which consists of Star Wars theme with blow up light sabers and a fantastic layered cake that I am in the process of baking and decorating.

And for the next month... Easter MINIS are on the way. AND I step out from behind the camera and let my friend take some family portraits for me!!

When I see your face.... Birth Photography

The inquiries have begun on Newborn shoots. These brand new babies make you see a new perspective to the world and I just love photographing them. Along with the newborn photography, I have begun getting requests for BIRTH PHOTOGRAPHY. What an honor it would be to capture such a special moment in new parents' lives. 

I sure wish I would have thought about this when my babies were being born. Now before anyone says, "Ewww, why would you want to have that photographed?" I just want to explain, it is capturing the hard work it takes for that baby to come into the world, the people who help make it happen, and the love that is going on before that baby is even seen.

Now picture all of that going on..... Now imagine that first glimpse of that tiny baby and how the whole world stops. How all you feel in that little time span is overwhelming JOY and LOVE. THAT IS WHAT I WILL CAPTURE FOR YOU!! A way for you to remember that moment for the rest of your life. 

Doesn't that sound like something that you want to hold on to?? Let me capture it for you. Just for a better idea of what you will see, check out this website: http://www.cincinnatibirthphotography.com/

Valentine Minis- Something a little sexy, something a little sweet

Valentine season is such a great time of the year to really celebrate LOVE. We should love each other all the time and all year but it is so exciting to have a time of year where we can really just celebrate LOVE. This year, I have some cute little ideas for the kiddos, some super sweet ideas for the lovers out there and some steamy, sexy plans for those hot LADIES. Check out my specials going on until the week before Valentine's Day.

Be Mine; Sweetheart; Cool Dude

Valentine's Day is right around the corner. So..... Love is in the air!! First up is something for the kiddos. The mini session will take place starting this weekend.

Along with these sessions, I have designed personalized Valentine picture cards. These things are adorable and they are so awesome for your child to pass out to friends. These can be customized with a picture from your mini session or from any other picture you want to use. They are wallet sized so just perfect for sharing.

But that's not all!! I will also be having a special mini session for couples and a special little something for the LADIES!! Keep an eye here for updates  Facebook

January Photo Challenge with Rock the Shot

Happy 2013!! What better way to start off my new photography year than with a photo challenge!?
This month's challenge is to pick out my favorite picture from 2012. How could I possibly find just one the I LOVE? I loved every single shoot from 2012. All of the families were so amazing and some friendships have formed simply by getting to know them at our session. So if I had to pick just one from my whole year, it would have to be from the maternity session I did in November. This one is special to me because from the moment I met her, I could feel her excitement about this baby. She reminded me of myself, wanting to capture this special time in my life. Her vision was simple- she wanted something natural, easy, breathtaking! With these set of images, I knew that if it were me having these pictures done, the results were exactly what I have wanted. The moment she saw your gallery, joy filled her heart. I knew that I had captured the perfect moments that she and her husband would treasure. Here is the one out of hundreds of favorites that I chose.
