I’ve mentioned it before, but I LOVE photographing babies 6 months to one year.  (I mean, I have specific reasons why I like photographing all ages and different types of sessions…I could never pigeon hole myself into one or two categories!)…BUT;  something about this age is usually just so darn EASY!  (knock on wood!)

They’re easy to entertain, have GREAT facial expressions, and they’re too young to be all that aware of the camera.  Sometimes, they’re not even able to move off the backdrop before I can sneak in a couple of shots!

Last weekend, all of my photo sessions involved babies in that age bracket.  Their parents knew exactly how to dress them for a photo session, to boot!  Lucky me!

Charlize

(Her friends call her Charlie…)  This little six month old is pretty close to sitting up on her own;  but she can already stand pretty well with the aid of a chair!   She was very easy to please; Her parents taught me that all I needed to do to make her smile was pucker up and make a kissing noise–and it worked every time!  ( Although I’m curious to know if she decided that wasn’t so completely novel anymore after her session here!)

(Isn’t her hairdo the best?)

Becker

I get to see Becker and his sister quite often during the winter months;  Once for holiday cards, and once for each of their birthdays!

It’s hard for me to believe Becker is four already– His was my very first newborn shoot when I decided to quit my day job and pursue photography as a full time gig.  Gosh!  How time flies…

Mini Sessions:  March 6th

Since my calendar is already starting to fill up for spring, I decided to schedule my next mini sessions in the beginning of March.  I know that if I don’t get something on the calendar early, March will turn to April, and once April hits, summer seems to be right around the corner!    I will keep you posted on further updates, but for now what I know for sure is that I’ll be using a white backdrop, and we’ll be welcoming in spring!  (a little early for MN, but we’re all pretty eager for it by that time of year!)

The important thing for now is that, with the session, you get 15 edited digital images on disk (with a signed release) along with prints of each one for $200.  This is an offer that would normally be valued at $350, so it goes without saying that this is a killer deal!    I plan to start at 10:00AM, so if you are interested, contact me right away. I have already booked two slots with a third pending through my facebook page, so the sooner the better!

August

Here’s a handful of images from my newborn session on Thursday night…. Sweet boy!  (By the way; I’m playing around with some new effects on these…  I’m like a kid in a candy shop!)

Mini Accordion Albums

Check out these sweet little accordion brag books that just arrived at my door.  Three to a set;  they come with  fabric covers and frosted protective sleeves;  from now on I am including them with any print/digital image orders that meet or exceed $250!  Visit my facebook page to learn about another great offer!
