Sneak Peek, Austin

For one very special client…

I first met them for a maternity session prior to his birth. This session represents my third visit to their home and each time is truly a pleasure. What a fun family, happy, full of life. Austin’s vibrant personality is a reflection of what wonderful people and parents they are. They are eagerly awaiting baby #2 and I’m accepting bets as to the gender yet again. I’m guessing girl, wonder if I’ll be right this time? My track record doesn’t look too good but I figure I’ve got a 50/50 shot regardless… haha

Here’s sweet Austin at 13 days old…

Welcome Paisley

Join me in giving a very warm welcome to the newest member of the JOY program, Paisley. Now come on, with a beautiful, unique name like that – you just KNOW Mom & Dad are going to be the coolest! :) This little sweetie is going to spend her first year with lifeXpressions and we are going to have fun! She was such a well behaved little girl during our newborn session. Slept on cue, woke up on cue, no tears. She made my job look easy. Crossing fingers that the 3 newborns I’ve got this week are so kind to me. *knock on wood*

Look at those tiny tootsies, don’t they make your heart melt?

Sometimes things fall into place so perfectly and a mood strikes. Not always the traditional photograph but then, I’m not always a traditional photographer. There are certain images that strike me as having a larger meaning. One that may not always be outwardly clear but can often be seen when you take the time to feel the emotion of the photograph. This is one of those images. I see this as a wall portrait, on canvas, titled “Our Gift From Above”. Ok, so this is my corny moment of the day. But it works for me, the light falling gracefully onto the top of her head, cradled in Daddy’s protective hands. I adore the shadows and the mood showcased here. *adore it* In fact, it may end up becoming one of my studio samples.

Family fun

Today I’m going to share with you a very fun loving family from Naples. Kinda makes you want to jump in bed and have a pillow fight of your own doesn’t it? They already have one WAY cute 2 yr old boy, Noah, soon they’ll be welcoming a sweet little girl into the family. If she has half the energy of her big brother Mom & Dad are going to be in for quite a ride! :)

Favorite things

One of my favorite things about this job would have to be the relationships formed and the ability to watch these special families grow over time. This little angel is Sydney, she is a resident of Naples Florida. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting her before, during that shy stage that many soon-to-be two year olds go through. When I had the honor of photographing her lovely family again it was so rewarding to see how much she had grown socially in just a few months. Suddenly the little girl who was very cautious and unsure of me had grown into this lively little lady who was  quite eager to show me everything she had learned to do in the last few months. Sydney is expecting a baby sister soon, I’ve been sworn to secrecy on the name as I hear that is still up for debate but I have a hunch Mom and Sydney may be winning. ;)

I look forward to meeting that little angel in April!
