Happy Birthday to YOU!

Our beautiful little Sophie celebrated her very first birthday yesterday!  We are so proud of our baby girl.  She has continued to amaze us every day in this first year of hers.  And as she manages to make her way around our home, climbing up on everything within reach, while dragging along her baby doll that she absolutely adores, I can’t help but look ahead to her next year and imagine and wonder about all the things she will do and learn.  So in honor of her turning one, I am posting this picture of our beautiful one-year-old!  Mommy and Daddy are very proud of you Sweetheart and we love you very, very much!

    Oh, Christine, she’s gorgeous!! Congratulations and Happy Birthday to Sophie!! 🙂

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

And even more wonderful when I get to enjoy the holiday season while photographing a sweet, little angel, all decked out in his beautiful and very festive Christmas outfits!  What an adorable little boy and such a joy to be with!  So here are some sneak peeks for his mommy and daddy.  And I predict that Santa will be especially good to “E” this year.  He is truly an angel!

It’s Senior Time!

I recently had a wonderful opportunity to spend the afternoon with a sweet and beautiful high school senior.  In the middle of her very active and busy life, and at the request of her very proud mom, she kindly agreed to come with me to take some pictures for her senior year – and all of this picture taking right before heading off to her volleyball banquet.  You’re the best “A”!   So thank you for being such a sport (no pun intended) and for putting up with my silly questions and goofy stories.  Here is your sneak peek!  Enjoy!

A Horse, Of Course!

This past Sunday I had a photo session with some very good friends of mine.  I was a little nervous about the weather because the clouds from the previous day had stayed with us and although the weather forecast was calling for a partly sunny day,  it was a bit gray outside.  But with the help of some occasional sun peeking through, we were able to complete our session AND have some fun at the same time.  But before I show you a preview of the pictures I took, let me first mention that this was no ordinary session.  It is common during one of my sessions to stroll around, taking pictures as we go.  And that is a fair way to describe this session.  But the funny part is that my models consisted of my dear friends, their daughter “M”, AND  the newest member of their family, a horse named Star.  And it did appear that Star was indeed the STAR of the day, because when I got home and browsed through the many images I took, it was then that I realized that Star was in most of the pictures!  Horses hold a very special place in my heart, so that is another reason why this session was so special for me.  As an equestrian myself, I couldn’t help but look back to the day when I was M’s age, when every single thing I did revolved around horses.  She reminded me so much of myself at her age – a looooooong time ago!  So thank you “K family” for that walk down memory lane AND for such a fun afternoon.  You all did a great job!  Even you, Star!

    Christine; These are wonderful pictures of our beautiful granddaughter. Can’t wait to see the rest and wonder which ones they will pick as gifts. It will be a really hard choice.
