Oh my…here’s another amazingly creative, hip, and fun featured designer, Beth creator of Monkey & Me unique children’s clothing. Little Briella was so giddy trying these clothes on and modeling for me. I’ve never seen her so excited for a photo session. We dressed her on-location so the clothes wouldn’t wrinkle too much and she kept saying ‘Oh this is gonna be fun! ‘{giggles emanating from her}. I was thrilled she was so into it. Anyway, getting the thumbs up from my daughter was a good sign and I instantly fell in love with the colors, and cute vintage designs. Monkey & Me designs a variety of styles from funky and hip to wild and spunky available in infant sizes all the way up to 6T. And since Beth is the designer/creator she knows all about sizing so if you’re unsure of what sizes you’re interested in just send her your child’s measurements and she’ll help you find the perfect fit! I just love this red and white polka-dot retro animals A-line dress! But I think Brielle felt sassy in all of them. If you like funky, retro, unique clothing you’ve gotta check out Monkey & Me.

{Oh… I just had to post a few more…}

Since I have yet to put up Megan & Jessica’s gallery (it’s been a crazy week and spring break for the kidlets on top of that), I thought I’d add a second peek from their session. I love face shots so I couldn’t resist posting more. Oh so many images to choose from, can’t wait to show you more. Thanks for being patient!
{Fun, Fashion & Friends}

Yesterday afternoon I photographed two close friends – Megan & Jessica. They just so happen to be awesome babysitters too – my kids adore these two girls! And they were bummed to see me leave with Megan and Jessica as we ventured on our photo shoot. I have to say photographing Megan & Jessica brought me right back to my senior year in High School – the laughter, teasing, embarrassment and enthusiasm – it all came flooding back and was so surreal. The two could be sisters, they were that close – you know the type of friendship where you share make-up, do each others hair, make fun of each other yet encourage and support each other. That’s the type of friendship they had and it made this session one of my favorites. I could have photographed them all night but we lost light and had to end it at some point. Anyway here’s a few images from our session. I varied my editing styles since I just couldn’t resist and the possibilities were pretty wide with this age group.
More to come…
{Could it be Spring… finally?! Oh and April & May are booked}
March 20, 2008 – 3:11 pm
Is it here? Is Spring really here? As I tiptoed out of my bedroom this morning before the kids woke, I realized that today is the day I’ve been dying for. The first day of Spring was finally here! The sun is shimmering but wow it’s so windy! My hair whipped me in the face as I got out of my car and headed into the gym this morning – it didn’t feel like spring, but I’m sure it will in no time!
So yesterday afternoon I took Tyler on a little mini-photo session. He gave me about 10 minutes to run to 3 locations all within 100 yards of each other so it made it pretty painless. I think Tyler has mastered his ‘serious look’. What a cutie, the moment the camera comes out it’s either ‘serious Tyler’ or ‘happy smiles Tyler’. So here’s a few serious and one token smiling image of my little man. I did different processing on all of them. And I used some textures to add dimension to 2 or 3 of them (you’ll know which ones when you see them).
Oh and on a side note: I currently have no more openings in April or May and June is starting to fill. I also have started booking sessions for Fall. I know that seems so far away, but some people are thinking ahead and booking now (very good idea). Just so you know, this year I have a holiday order cut-off – November 16th will be the deadline. This will allow my lab time to process all your orders before the Christmas. I can’t believe I’m talking about Christmas and it’s the first day of Spring!
