BELLA'S BEAUTIFUL FAMILY

I LOVE, LOVE THIS IMAGE OF BELLA LOOKING UP AT HER DADDY.

A Traditional Family Photo:

I think Bella is a "Daddy's Girl"!

I always love hugging/embracing relationship images like these.

...and images of children looking off (not so posed/not looking at the camera).

And for every untraditional image, we need a traditional one too (or two).

or three

Holding hands with Daddy again. There's just something so adorable about little girls and their daddies that is just so sweet that nothing else really compares. (The above image is my favorite from these images.)

As you probably already know, I love images of families holding hands, but they are espeically cute when the little one looks over her shoulder to see what is going on behind her.

Images like this always make great "the end" shots.
Tori, believe it or not, I am working on these and I am almost through. I should post the rest of them online in the next day or so. Be looking for an email from me to let know when.

That's it for now. I have had a somewhat productive day. I have completed two sessions today and I am almost through with three. I do have to pause on all this editing to finish a few more orders as soon as possible that I am also behind on too. But I did feel compeled to work on this end today because you can't make an order if you don't see your images.

MY SINCEREST APOLOGIES TO YOU:

Okay, I have this thing about always trying to include an image with any post (even it isn't related to the post...in this case). This is the first cute one that I ran across when I was looking for something. I am sure you all know that this is MY LITTLE SWEETHEART, NATALIE and she has her own blog listed with the links in the right hand corner if you want to see more of Natalie's World.

I am posting this post to offer to you my clients my most sincerest apologies on the delays of getting your sessions completed and the your session posted on the blog. I have two more almost ready and these that I posted today (Maddox and Will's) are almost ready. I have no great excuses other than the crazy life that I have had the last few months that has caused all my delays: seniors that I pulled in front of other sessions (that I won't being doing any more after this season...I will post more of that subject later), graduation activities with my daughter-in-law, wedding, wedding showers, a prom and even some major construction on my home/business. And of course, you all know I spend a lot of time in the care of my almost-three-year-old grand daugher (whom I adore). I do plan on this getting better in the near future. I only have one new session next week and I hope to do some serious catching up. Hang on Tori, Cristi and Casey. Your sessions are the other two that are almost ready. I haven't forgotten anyone and I will reward you with something extra for patience.

Again please accept my sincerest apologies and I do appreciate each and everyone of you.

ISN'T IT AMAZING HOW MUCH A BABY CAN GROW FROM NEWBORN TO 5 MONTHS!

THIS IS BABY MADDOX. ISN'T HE JUST ADORABLE? I PHOTOGRAPHED HIS NEWBORN SESSION EARLILER THIS YEAR. I POSTED IMAGES COMPARING HIM AND SISTER AT ABOUT THE SAME AGE. (I THINK MADDOX IS ABOUT FOUR OR FIVE MONTHS OLD AT THE TIME OF THIS SESSION.)

I'm so in love with these images that show eyelashes.

I AM REALLY RUNNING OUT OF TIME AGAIN. SO I WILL EDIT THIS LATER, BUT I WILL POST IT IN THE NEXT FEW MINUTES.

MADDOX: MY FIRST TEA CUP BABY

I SAW THESE LAST YEAR ON ANOTHER PHOTOGRAPHER'S WEBSITE. THEN I STARTED LOOKING FOR ONE TOO. A YEAR LATER I FOUND ONE. SEVERAL SESSIONS LATER, I FOUND THE RIGHT BABY.

DOESN'T MADDOX JUST LOOK STUNNED TO BE IN THE SITUATION! LOL

THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN HE NOTICES SOMETHING...FEET?
OH WHAT A CUTIE!
THERE'S THOSE DARN FEET AGAIN...
WHERE DID THEY COME FROM?
DID YOU KNOW I HAD THESE!
OKAY, WHO CARES! GET ME OUT OF HERE!
I WAS SO GLAD TO FINALLY FIND A BABY FOR MY NEW PROP.
THANKS, MADDOX!

BABY CLAYTON: PART 2

Isn't he the cutest!

I posted some of Clayton's images a while back. I am finally getting back to the order of things since the wedding, prom, senior graduations and showers and such. So in efforts of catching up, Part 2 of Baby Clayton's images will be the first new images to posts from recent sessions. I have many more to catch up on.

I love this last image. I definitely says...THE END!

(notice the eyelashes!) That's all for now. Stay tuned for more updates from sessions photographed the last few months. I don't know if I will ever catch up, but eventually I won't be as far behind. Speaking of behinds...gotta love those cute little bottom shots.

Note: I think Baby Clayton was a little over six months, but this is pretty clothes to a six month portrait session of a baby boy.

My New Daugher-in-Law and My Little Sweetheart, Natalie

Two years ago and 10 months ago, when my grand daughter, Natalie, was born, Brittany became a part of our family. It's official. She shares the same name as her daughter, her husband and the rest of our family. It was a simple beautitul wedding. I am so proud of my son and new daughter. Of course, Natalie made everything all the more precious. I wanted to quickly post some images from the bridal session that was done before the wedding and some other images that were used at the wedding. I only took a few at the wedding. I did hire a professional photographer to capture the memories of this special day. But I couldn't resist having a camera in my lap too. I did have a great angle of Natalie trying to help her mommy and daddy with the unity candle that I will post later. But for now please enjoy these images:

This first one was my favorite from the Bridal Portrait Session and was displayed at the door of the reception.

I designed this collage for a special wedding favor that I made (I mean my husband made...I did designed it, but my sweet husband came through for me and really helped out the last few weeks).
Natalie kissing her mommy.
I designed this collage from the first engagment session that we did in the fall on the campus of LSU. It was displayed on an easel on the groom's table with his LSU cake.
This was the engagement signature board. Rather than matting a 5x7 or 4x6 for the wedding party to sign at the rehearsal dinner, I made this in a 11x14 size for them to sign. Through all the chaos, I forgot to take it to the rehearsal dinner. So I just took it back to the lake house and asked everyone to sign it while waiting to take their photographs.

[AREN'T THEY A CUTE COUPLE/FAMILY? I THINK THESE COLLAGES REALLY DEPICT THEIR RELATIONSHIP.]

I also loved this one and did another wall portrait in this image and it was displayed near the bride's table.

Isn't she beautiful?
And her mommy is too.

I love, love this one too. I don't think it was posed. I think it was just what I caught Brittany doing while thinking about what we would do next. She is such a natural.

We must have at least one tinted image, uh?
I have more images posted on Natalie's blog from the wedding day.

That's it for now. I will try to post more images later.

P.S.

I am re-posting this because there was an error in it.

Let's see if this one works. There was an error in the first time I made. I corrected the spelling, but the link didn't correct itself. So I deleted it and re-added. Hopefully, this one will work. If not go to my favorites and click on "My Little Sweetheart".
