Ice Skating Fools!!!

We LOVE to Ice Skate...the majority of us anyway!

Goodbye Christmas...

We took down the tree..until next year!

Alanna & Christmas...

About 7:30pm Christmas night (yes, I'm exhausted) we decide to bring Alanna into the studio for some Christmas Pictures that were long overdue. My niece is just the cutest! She's got these big, pouty lips and brown eyes that you get lost in. She loves dogs and just started walking really good! She'll be ONE tomorrow! I can't believe it's been a year. I've got to bring her over for her One Year pics but I'm just now posting her Christmas pics...I can't keep up!

Chrissy & Baby Caitlin

Maternity sessions are very intimate. I don't post many belly shots - I wouldn't want someone showing off my belly at 9 months. So I'll give you a few of Chrissy's minus the 'bare' belly ones - those are just for her. The whole time she would say..'Are you sure about this..are you sure about this?' Of course I'm sure - now take it off!! It's hard to get naked (or close to it) in front of your photographer/friend. Luckily, she knows me pretty well. So here's a few of Chrissy and her family.

Mya's 6 month pictures...

Mya is such a good baby. Steve & Reagan should have 80 kids if all their kids are going to turn out this good. Steve runs the show over at Glass Eye Video and we've worked together over the years at many...many weddings. I'll certainly miss photographing his family and working with him and Reagan when I move. I thought I'd get the chance to see all 'my' babies and kids grow up 'in pictures.' I guess my regulars will just have to make a road-trip down to Atlanta to see me! Anyway...click HERE to see a few of Mya's 6 month pics!

Charlie...

The many faces of Charlie....you have just got to see his happy face! Charlie's mom bribed him to wear his blazer with two tickets to the 'Bee' Movie after our session. He was so good - I hope she bought him a pack of Twizzlers too! Click HERE to see his webshow:

The Minella Family...

They stopped by today for some holiday pics with their girls. OH, so cute! They were so easy to work with and just beautiful. The girls really enjoyed trying to make their Dad smile. He, like some men, doesn't like pictures. Well, of course we WERE NOT going to take it easy on him..and when he smiled - what a great smile! Click HERE to see their webshow.

Pajama Party!!

Pumpkin Carvings....

Bea's Kindergarten class had a night of carving pumpkins...I guess I didn't get the memo that it was a 'Dad' thing...I think I was the only mom there! It was still a good time. Here's a few:
Of course we sat with Brendan. Bea just thinks the world of him. They are buds!!!

Here's the best part of this story...so the KIDS are supposed to be carving the pumpkins.

But check 'em out...they are here:while Chris (Brendan's dad) is still hard-at-work carving..the kids are at the OTHER table having snacks and juice boxes!

The Marathon..

Bea's first marathon...errr....that's what we told her. She was stretching to get ready..and in the next shot - this dude saw Bea stretching and thought he better loosen up a bit too! Photo credit goes out to my much better half.
Gatorade after the race. Greg said she was not even close to being out-of-breathe..but hey! It's Gatorade..nasty stuff.
and her medal! She even brought it to show-and-tell. She's very proud of it - we're so proud of her! Some day, I'm sure I'll be coughing up her dust.

Christa & Greg...

Christa & Greg 'appear' to be a normal couple...and I'm so glad they are not. So the two of them were Cross-Country Runners back in the day. Christa throws out this idea of them 'running' for their engagement session. Ummm....okay. And I love ideas..any and all kinds! So, we have to take it to the next level...Check out their webshow and turn UP your volume for some rockin' '80's music!

Isabelle...

Ohhh, Isabelle. She's just the sweetest thing! She lives next door to us so she doesn't have far to come when it's picture time! And she LOVES having her picture taken. She's just wonderful to photograph. Here's a few:

The Lorton Parents..

Just too funny to not show all of you...

The Lorton Twins...

Well..you just can't go wrong with double cuteness. I know when those two come to my studio..we are in for a good time. All I have to do is snap away - it's almost too easy. Their mama is a stylist (Tara at Baja Salon) and I wouldn't go anywhere else. When we move..I'll have to come back just to see her and bring her my picture of Jennifer Anniston (or whoever's hair color I like that month) and ask her to make me look like that. I hope everyone makes a road trip down to HOTlanta to see me - we'll have extra space - everyone can crash at our house!

Victoria & Julia...

How do you NOT fall in love with these faces??? Julia had a smile that was absolutely contagious! I laughed every time she smiled! And her older sister, Victoria's hair? Natural..big..purrrrty...curls! I was a little worried when Julia (the younger one) came into the studio hanging tightly to her daddies' leg...but we sat..we chatted a bit...and she LIT up!!! She was a WILD thing!! But in my studio..the crazier..the better!! Here's a few:
