Mommy -Daughter Session...

Its always nice to meet new clients, but when you have a client who chooses to come back and give repeat business, its one of the best feelings in the world!

The last time I saw this little girl she was tiny, now she is running around and dancing. Such a sweet and gorgeous little girl!


Admiring the variety of birds..

Touching the water...


Thank you so much for spending the afternoon with me, enjoy your sneak peeks and I will talk to you soon!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~

The photos I posted yesterday are creating such a buzz... I have a few more sessions lined up. They are a great alternative to the regular photos that are usually offered. I also offer a team discount! Call 760-486-3017 to see how to sign up your player/team for some awesome photos!!

Beautiful Senior....

What a way to welcome Spring! We had a beautiful weekend and I did an outdoor session with a class of 2011 Senior!
The weather was perfect, and even though the lighting was a bit harsh for my liking, we did what we could...






Isn't she stunning?
I'm so exciting to see her prom dress and the session we can pull together!
I have another session this weekend with two little girls - I can't wait.

Family session!

These girls are from our homeschooling group! I swear the oldest should look into modeling, she is soooo tall!
We did a family session with them and I got to meet her dad. Now I know how she got to be so tall!
The baby is super cute, and such a happy little girl!





Both girls have beautiful eyes!

Thanks so much for coming in - see you Thursday!

2010 Senior!

Today I got to meet my first 2010 senior! She is a dancer, and today I saw my first pair of "point" shoes (I hope I am saying that right) and she even posed on point for her session (which was really cool to see) If I ever try to do that I would probably break a toe or snap an ankle, lol!
She had a few clothing changes...I am about halfway through her proofs, so here are a few from the first batch, and tomorrow I will show the cap and gown/ballet shots.






Isn't she gorgeous?

Thanks for coming in today, and I look forward to finishing the rest of your proofs!

**********************************************************************************

Don't forget, the after Christmas deal....Buy one session, and get another free! Perfect if you want to do some indoor shots when its cold, and then another session outdoor for free when the weather warms up!
The free session can be used anytime during the 2010 year, and is not valid on boudoir sessions, weddings, or other special events. It is also not redeemable for cash :)

Its Santa....

The next few posts will be out of order...between work and personal stuff, I have a lot of photos to share....

SO here we go....

My friend and one of my favorite clients hosted a Children's Christmas party and invited several of her friends. The highlight of the day was naturally the man in the big red suit:





Many thanks to Santa for being a good sport and visiting at a time when he is soooo busy!

More twins!

I think I hit the twin jackpot! The other day I was saying how I rarely get twins, and now these twins came in, and I met with teen-age twins yesterday about doing some work for them as well.
Lucky, lucky!







I am so excited for Christmas! Only 10 days left!
Saturday's Holiday Extravaganza went well - I made some new contacts (see photos above) and it was nice to enjoy the company of the other vendors.
Sunday's Toys for Kids softball tournament in the City of Victorville was also a blast...our team came in last in our bracket, but I am sure the guys had fun. The most important thing is that lots of toys were donated, and all 4 bins were overflowing by the end of the day.

This is the last week for Christmas sessions, with guaranteed delivery by Christmas! I have Friday afternoon open, if anyone wants to do a quick session with viewing and ordering the same day.
Friday morning I will be hanging out with Santa and taking pictures with him...exciting!
Next week I have sessions with a graduate, a family, and an aspiring actress! What a busy week!

Dance Photos!

The sessions I am posting are a little out of order...but please bear with me!

As I have mentioned before, I LOVE dancers! The costumes are always so creative as well as beautiful.
This young lady went through 3 costumes while she was here and I can only imagine what its like on recital day, having to change backstage so many times!
Thank you Miss J, for coming in and having me do your dance photos!

******************************************************************

We have been very busy here at the studio - and we are coming off an excellent weekend at the CHN Expo. Once again, we met so many wonderful families, and reconnected with some favorites from last year.
Tomorrow's post will be a family, and then the day after will be some shots from the convention....

Weekend work!!

Last weekend I went out to one of my favorite client's house to take pictures of her side of the family. Her children are gorgeous, as usual, all the girls in matching dresses.
The youngest, Peyton....

YAY!!!
And I can't always please everyone.....



Its been a whirlwind of a week, more baseball photos to come...

Pageants!

Miss J came on Sunday to have some photos done for her upcoming Miss Barstow pageant. She was a great model and took direction very well!
This is one of my favorites out of the series. I absolutely love the dress and I think the backdrop compliments it perfectly! I think it has a classic feel to it and probably would look great in black and white.
Good luck at the pageant and I hope you win something!
