Hello blue eyes!!

December 7, 2009

Mom’s eyes are really this blue, no photoshopping here, I swear!  It’s pretty incredible actually, and her darling kiddos look just like her ::swoon::!  (you too Steve!)

Janna, you are as gorgeous today as you were back in high school!  I love you to bits girl!

If you follow my blog, you know that I photographed this gorgeous family about this time last year, I always look forward to their sessions!  AND… it’s no secret that they always have the most awesome Christmas cards on the block!

I’ll keep the chit chat to a minimum tonight, I have one last session to edit and a boat load of cards to order!!  Tonight my i-chat status reads: “editing like my life depends on it!”  Since this is the case, I better get back to it.

Until next time…

kelly: Jill these are amazing. Love your color. These would make awesome canvas portraits.

Head almost above water…

Who am I fooling, no one I am sure?!  So, it was just about this time last year that I recall saying this exact thing, I suppose there is some comfort in the fact that some things never change ::sigh::

In addition to working very hard to wrap up my last three sessions of the year, tomorrow, I am participating in a festive.stately.posh.classy.swanky.5-star, (have I got your attention) not to miss holiday event!  Please consider the following your invite to come and mingle, snack and do some Christmas shopping!  We have some of the areas most premier vendors and small businesses, unique one-of-a-kind gifts, handmade treasures and custom artwork.  AND I am very delighted to announce that the splediferous Say Grace Catering Co. will be providing the food, a decadent sampling of their fine cuisine.  I will be featuring my photography, and am very excited to showcase several, all-new SUPER fabulous products!  In addition, anyone who comes by, and mentions this post will receive a gift card, which will entitle you to a free 11×14 portrait along with other additional savings for 2010!!  Lastly, I will also be opening only a few dates for those of you who really have your act together, you will have first shot at scheduling your Valentines mini-sessions.  That’s right, I will be holding these festive Valentine  sessions, they will double as an excuse for your little ones to dress up and have fun!  You will be able to have a serious sneak-peek at the wardrobe and accessories for the promo shoot later this month!  I have pieced together some rockin’ outfits!  This will also serve as a way, to show my clients first hand what looks best on camera, and how sometimes going a bit above what feels/looks normal for you can really help turn ordinary photography into art!

Fun stuff going on all day, you will not want to miss all of the great opportunities tomorrow!

Shannon, I have photographed your darling family for a few years now… hard to believe it’s been that long!  This year was a little extra exciting, as we added Miss McKenzie to the family photo!  You are amazing in many ways…  you never stop cheering me on, you support me in everything I do, you shout my photography to the world, I am always in awe of your friendship, love and concern for me.  I don’t know how you do it, but you always do!  I am honored to call you my friend and in case I never said it properly, thank you and love you girl!  xo

I get a little extra sentimental around the holidays ;)

Be well my friends!

ps. don’t forget to stop on by tomorrow and get that Christmas shopping wrapped up!

Anne: Just saw this today...would have loved to nominate a family I know from church, but I'm too late. Maybe next year :). Sorry I missed your holiday boutique too...I was out of town. Maybe next time :). Love looking through your pictures as always. Hope you're doing well!
