Congratulations mom and dad, you have a sweet little guy there. In addition to your free session and $30 print credit, you will also receive a 5×7 print of your little guy in costume!

This couldn’t come at a better time, I have a session with him and his twin sister this weekend. I can’t wait for our session.

Thank you to everyone who participated. I had a great time seeing all of the costumes.

Vote vote vote! Yes, you will hear it all day! Here is one more for you to vote for, but how much more fun is this!?!  Halloween was so much fun, I got to see so many cute costumes. Here are some trick-or-treaters that entered my Kids in Costumes Contest. Polls will be open until Tues, Nov. 11 @ midnight. Tell all of your friends and family to vote! The winner receives a Free Family Portrait session and a $30 print credit! Good luck everyone! There are 13 to vote for. The entries are marked with a # in the upper right corner. There are some others thrown in (my family) for fun that are not qualified to enter.

I visited this site to see a beautiful handmade gown that the creator is GIVING AWAY! I would absolutely love to win this. I think it would be perfect for a little girl’s themed portrait! Plus, wouldn’t Bella also be in heaven to have this!?! Check out her blog to see… Grosgrain: Marie-Therese

Let here know what you think. She is very talented and very kind to give this away!

Kim, Jason, and Matthew, I had a great time with you at the park! It was a pleasure to meet you all, thank you so much! Kim, you have an adorable little boy there (tell him I would love to go ducky hunting with him some time! Ha!) Here are a few from your session. I hope you enjoy…

Hi everyone,

There’s an effort to elect an unknown random person as President… and it’s someone we know! Watch this online video about the surprising new nominee:

I survived! I am actually not feeling too bad. Well, other than I feel (and look) like I have been punched in both eyes! My eye lids are very swollen. I will not be going around any children for the next couple of days! Ha! I wouldn’t want them to be afraid of me…that wouldn’t help me when trying to get them to relax and have fun for pictures.

It is so great already, even with the swelling. I can actually open my eyes looking forward, and see light fixtures on the ceiling above me!! That is how bad I was before. I cannot wait for the swelling to go down, the world will look so much bigger, lol.

I blocked out my schedule for the week to give myself time to recover. My first day back to photographing will be next Saturday the 18th. Please pray that I am healed by then. I have a family with a 3 year old that I do not want to give nightmares.

I better get back to resting and off the computer before my husband yells at me again to rest!

I just wanted to make everyone aware that I will not be photographing or working on any prints for the next few days due to an eye surgery I am having Friday morning. If you do need to contact me through the weekend, I will be returning calls, so just leave me a voice message. Thank you for understanding and I will let you know how everything goes as soon as I can see the computer monitor again.
