Meet Matt: 2011 Brandywine High School Senior Rep

Matt was so fun to photograph, not only is he a
BHS Rep for me, but he is my cousin. It was great
to spend time with him & Mom & hear about
his dreams of being a film producer one day.
*
Matt, just remember your favorite cousin
when you become the next Steven Spielberg!





What a beautiful day!

Weather permitted our first session date, but
we knew God had his reasons!! (wink*wink)
When we finally met up, the weather was beautiful!
*
Little "A" was the highlight of this session......
Take a look at this little sweetheart...




















Deb, thanks so much for trusting me with your memories.
It was really great to meet you & your family!!!

I'm So PROUD!

Today is my niece, Mariah's, FINAL day of
high school!!! Thank goodness too....she has
had senior-itis for a LONG time & riding her
butt every morning to get out the door on time
has been less than pleasant! Hehehe!
*
Anyway, kidding aside, I am soooo proud
of this young lady! She has been through
some difficult times in her life & instead
of dwelling on them, she has focused on the
positive, plunged forward toward her goals
and is such a respectable young lady. She has
such a bright future ahead of her and I hope she
always remembers how much Aunt Lori loves her!

6MO. Cutie-Patootie

Little "P" has grown so much since I seen him
last! Sitting up is such a milestone & he is
rolling over too!
*
We decided to take him outside and it
was his first time in the grass....he was
so excited and would not stop staring at it,
it was hilarious! We got the bubbles out
to distract him from the grass and then
things got really serious......



Then we had Mama pick him up for a snuggle...
I have to say, it is the sweetest thing to watch..
His Mama sings to him and he gets the biggest
SMILE on his face.....such a beautiful connection!


He likes to share secrets with Dad too......
who can also make him smile by making
some strange noises...hahaha!


Meet Miss Taylor: 2011 Niles High School Senior Rep

I had a great session with Taylor.....
She is a soft-spoken, blue-eyed beauty...
with a b-e-e-e-autiful head of red hair!
In addition, she is such a sweetheart!
*
Taylor it was so much fun getting to know
you, your Mama & "Manny!"
You have some gorgeous pics girly!
Take a peek......

Meet "Another" Miss Kayla: 2011 Edwardsburg Senior Rep!

I went to school with Kayla's Mama &
was so excited to have the opportunity
to meet her too! The funny thing is, I
felt like I was looking right at her Mama
through my lens! Not only did she inherit
her looks, but her fabulous "spirit." Kayla
I truly enjoyed your session and hope that
you realize what a beautiful person you are,
inside and out!

Look at these......FABULOUS!!!!

Model Shoot!!!!

Caution.......that's all I'm sayin'......LOL!
*
A little while back, I had a photo shoot
with a few local photographers. The purpose
was to help one another out with lighting,
posing, etc. We had three models that
graciously posed for us....below are two
them, the other will be my next post....
Look at these rockin' images!!


Miss Johanna......stunning.....




Look at those eyes!





This is Mr. Brad....and folks, this is what you
get when you work out! (Unfortunately, it
makes me want to eat chips & dip! LOL)





I knew I was his fav photog :)

6MO = So Adorable!!!!

The rain has been forcing me to reschedule
quite a few sessions lately. Luckily, the
weather didn't affect my session with
little "N." It's been so fun to wacth him
grow & develop his adorable personality.
*
He cooperated through a variety of shots...
this one was one of my fav's......

For this, we used a special blanket Mom & Dad
received when they were married! Thankfully,
"N" didn't "break it in" when we took his diaper off!
We used Grandpa's tie here.....
what an awesome idea to bring it Mama!
OMGoodness.......
Trying out his new frog moves :)
What a handsome little guy!!!
Julie, thanks so much for allowing me to
capture these fleeting moments for you!
