Cutie Patootie!

I had the pleasure of working with this little one this morning and she was just so even tempered. Mommy and Daddy adopted her recently and she's just fit right into the new family.

We had a fun time exploring and taking her portraits and she had no problem wearing the pettiskirt. Thanks to Carolyn for letting me take portraits of this gorgeous little girl.

Eloping is the Most Fun!

Our friend Christy had a big surprise on her birthday recently. Her lovely fiance, at the time, surprised her with a wedding dress and a trip to the courthouse to join in a happy marriage. She was so excited and wanted to share her excitement by getting some portraits done for elopement announcements.

Congrats to the newlyweds! You two are a perfect fit and we're glad to see you so happy!

Six Photographers and a Pregnant Belly

This past Sunday, we got together with some photographer friends for a group shoot. One of our friends, Suzie brought her maternity clients as models. We toured downtown Orlando for the best shooting locations while having a great time catching up. This couple was so perfect for the camera and she looks absolutely great.

Hope to meet up again with everyone soon. Between conflicting schedules and such, it's nice when we can all share and chat.

Touring the Hospital

On Monday evening we toured the Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women and Babies. It's the best hospital in town for delivering and we're fortunate to be so close by.

The hospital is only one year old and has already earned the nickname the "Ritz Carlton" of hospitals. The facilities are very nice and they even have a concierge desk where you can order a gourmet meal, fancy linens and robes and slippers.

Baby Announcements

One of our favorite little clients needed to announce her arrival, so we designed an announcement from Mommy's idea. We really loved how she cooperated so well for the portrait session because she gave us such great imagery for this announcement.

We will be including this in our Newborn packages and are preparing to offer a Baby Plan for baby's first year. If you know of anyone who is expecting, this is a fabulous gift that they can register for, and have friends and family help by contributing to their registry.

It's never too early or late to start portrait sessions for your new baby. The time goes by so fast and you'll want to cherish these moments many years from now when they're grown and starting their own families.

Working on the Baby's Room

Last week we started working on the baby's room. Figuring we're over halfway there, we'd better get it done so that we can purchase the nursery furniture. We're big fans of IKEA, so we'll be getting the nursery furniture and decorations from there. It's going to be a fun and bright room that we're hoping baby boy will love.

Of course the cats always have to be in on the action. They're investigating every square inch and anything that comes into the room.

Baby Sitting and Practice!

This past Saturday we had the opportunity to babysit for our friends John and Lauren. Their little guy George is such a cutie and so even tempered. We had a lot of fun keeping up with him while John and Lauren attended a wedding in town. The last time I saw George he was such a little guy and now he's crawling and pulling himself up on his feet.

Thanks John and Lauren for trusting us with your precious boy and thank you for the adorable baby pajamas for our soon to be baby boy. Hope to see you guys again soon!

30 Amazing Years

Last Saturday we had the privilege of covering Tom and Laura's 30th anniversary party. The event was held at the University Club in Downtown Orlando and involved lots of dancing and fine dining. That family really knows how to put on some moves!

Congratulations to Tom and Laura and wishes for continued success!

Bump's First Flight

This past weekend we flew and drove to Hunstville, Alabama for Todd's friend Christian's wedding. Seeing as it was little guys first plane flight, we had to capture the moment. The belly shot in the airplane was on the way up to Atlanta, and the shot in airport was on the way back to Orlando. When Todd asked me to pose by the window for the second shot, the pilot waved from the cockpit. I wonder if he noticed the bump?

A Groom's Story

Todd had the honor of being best man for his friend Christian's wedding. Todd and Christian are childhood friends and haven't skipped a beat in their friendship. Last Friday, we flew and drove to get to Huntsville, Alabama where the wedding ceremony took place.

As Todd was getting ready, he managed to capture a few special and funny moments of the groom getting ready and those all important details that come with the preparation.

Congratulations to Christian and Krystyn and all the best for your big move to Washington D.C. and your new life together.
