BEAUTIFUL BABY BOY AND HANDSOME BROTHER

SEE WHAT I MEAN! Any mom who has ever given birth to a baby boy totally understands how beautiful and boy go together. I learned that all to well almost 20 years ago when my beautiful baby boy was born. Of course, before he was born I knew I already loved him. And as soon as I saw his beautiful face, I knew of a love that I did not know existed until that moment in time...a moment that I will never forget. What mom could?
I still remember my husband's cousin (Karen) helping me in my room after the delivering. I remember her asking was I ready to have another baby. My answer was definitely yes...just not today (the day I delivered). I knew I wanted to feel that euphoric feeling again.

Baby Broghan (with eyes open...I don't get too many of these with newborns)
What beautiful, perfect lips...makes you want to kiss him, huh?

These are some of the images that I have been behind on. I am working overtime this week and next week trying to catch up. I did, however, get this birth annoucement much sooner for them to send out (while he still looked like this).

Mothers love images of their children (siblings) loving each other.

Keaton and his future sports buddy, Broghan

Storyboard of Keaton and Broghan:

Often I have a sessions that make mommies and grandmothers cry. And I cannot be in the presence with anyone who cries that I don't cry too (just ask my mom). I am so tenderhearted. But who could not choke on tears when witnessing this:


To Broghan and Keaton's Mommy: Check your email. These are ready to view online and I even saved a few of my favorites just for your viewing only and/or whoever you choose to share your password with.

I really love the outcome of this session!

Enjoy...

Lydia's Six-Month Portrait Session

I just remembered that I think Lydia was actually 7 mos., but that's okay too (but this represents her 6 month session and the milestones of this age).
Isn't she the cutest little butterball?

This is her sister, Laurel. Laurel usually hates to be photographed, but I was thinking it might be different this time since it was at their home (at least I was hoping it would be). I was right. Little Miss Laurel was much more comfortable and even wanted to be photographed. She even volunteered some of these poses that she came up with on her own.

Here's a few of both girls: another sibling image--
I am saving a few of my favs of these two together for their mommy to see first.

This is my favorite image of Laurel. I love, love her natural soft expression here.



I am finally beginning to catch up. These images are from Lydia's 6 month portrait. Because of the major construction that was going at the time at my home/business thesee were photographed at their home in the girls' bedrooms.




I am embarrassed how behind I am, but I attempting to do some major catching up this week and next week and I have special promotion and announcement to annouce also this week. So stay tuned!

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL BRIDE: CHELSIE

THESE IMAGES ARE FROM CHELSIE'S BRIDAL PORTRAIT.
They were captured at Frogmore Plantation about two weeks before her wedding. She was a very beautiful bride. This girl is one those very sweet beautiful girls...beautiful inside and out. She made me feel like she was such a lucky girl to have me as her photographer, but I was the lucky one. It was a priviledge and honor to watch them commit to each other before their firends and family. Thank you, Chelsie! This first image was the one she chose as her wall portrait that was displayed at her wedding reception. I think she chose well!
As you can see from the following images, her choices were quite overwhelming. Any of these could have been the right one! Beautiful brides make my job so much easier!






This collage was created as a gift to Chelsie. It was displayed at her reception with many copies to be shared with her guests.


It has been over a week since I posted so I wanted to add something. Honestly, I haven't got much done these past few weeks. Helping your children move to their college town can be quite a difficult task, but try moving your 3-year old (grandchild) two hours away. I have seen her almost everyday for the last three years of my life, the first three years of her life. Now all of a suddenly, it is all changing...for the good of all involved...but not good for a Mimi's heart!

I know many of you are looking and wondering what's going on. I plan to start doing some serious catching up this week.

Your patience and understanding is very much appreciated and will be rewarded as well.

BEAUTIFUL BRIDE

For someone who doesn't do weddings, I ended up doing several this year. I am considering offering wedding photography again with deluxe wedding packages only. But in efforts of catching up, I thought I would show this bridal portrait done before the actual wedding.


Amber's wedding and reception were held on the Vidalia Riverfront Convention Center. Thus it seemed only appropriate to do her formal bridal portrait there as well. The first image was a collage that I designed for Amber to share with her wedding guests.









Amber, if you are your mom see these. I am trying to catch up. If you would like to pick something out for the newspaper before I finish just let me know and we can do that together.
Thanks for looking.

SCROLL DOWN...

This post is to remind those of you who haven't visited in a few days to be sure in scroll down. I have been doing some posting from the past. The next post I just uploaded today, but before going out of town, before the last two posts, I had started one of Baby Jaden...who I am sure is over one year old now. For whatever reason, I didn't finish it and publish the post before I added the next one.

So be sure to scroll down to view BABY JADEN'S images too. At that time it was one of my favorite session. I love the relationship images that I captured in his session. His parents were so in love with him and each other...one of those session that brought tears to my eyes. So I want to make sure that you get a chance to view these too.

Enjoy...

MATILDA

This is Baby Madilda. I recently ran across her images too while working on an order for her mommy. Isn't she just adorable. I love some of these newborn poses...some that you will never get again once she outgrows her newborn features.

Thanks for viewing!
