I have a last minute opening for tomorrow night if anyone wants it! It would either be for a Regular Family Session (3:45pm-sundown) or a Mini-Holiday Session (4:30pm-sundown). If you’ve been wishing you had planned for a Family Portrait session for Christmas…then this is your lucky day! ) This will be the last opening for Holiday Pictures for the remainder of 2007. First one to email me gets the spot!

And…since I hate to post anything without a picture…doesn’t your heart just melt in those precious eyes!!!

These were two of my favorites from this HUGE family session. You’ll see LOTS more sweet kiddos from this session a little later tonight. )

…that’s what I kept thinking while I was proofing this session. ) NOT because I was patting myself on the back for my photography skills, but because this family in all their bright white clothes just look GLORIOUS to me in every picture! It’s not that often that you see a family dress in white head to toe for a photo session, but I just think it looks so beautiful…all the colors around them just pop! It also didn’t hurt that we had some fabulous lighting that day. ;o)

Here’s your sneak peek Beck Family!

This first picture is one of my favorites because I just LOVE the fun type shots…they’re the ones that really reflect who people are…I just love how much these kiddos all adore their uncle! Can’t you tell???

And then this next shot came at a little bit of a cost…poor Grandma and Grandpa had to sacrifice their feet in order to get this…I promised them the pain would be worth it. ) I hope it was…

And on to the couples…

And the sibs…

And Mom & Dad…

I’ll resist putting any of the group shots on the blog so that I don’t spoil any Christmas card pictures…but, rest assured Beck family…they turned out great!

Thanks Guys!

I have been asked by a few people if I will be offering Gift Certificates for Christmas. So, I’ve given it some thought and decided that I would love to do that, but before I design the certificates I’d like to hear from you on whether this is something you’d be interested in giving as a Christmas gift.

The gift certificates will be in the amount of $150 and will be for Newborn & Child Full Sessions (up to 3 children) and will include a $50 print credit. (That is a $25 savings over the session fee with the print credit). They can be used at anytime during 2008, but will only be available to purchase between now and Christmas. The certificates will come on watercolor textured 5×5 paper with parchment envelopes and will be beautiful for gift giving!

If enough people express an interest then I will design those and have them available within a week. You can shoot me an email to tell me what ya think. ) Thanks!

with another one of my favorite families. This was a fun session for me to do because I got to do the photos at their home! I love doing sessions at people’s houses…but, we were having a pretty icky weather day so the lighting inside was a little dismal. However…after some quick maneuvering of furniture and window screens removed I was able to get a few indoor shots that were pretty cool.

I love this next picture because…although you can’t tell much on the blog since there’s a white background…but, I was outside their window getting this shot and the white border along the right and bottom is the window sill and the brown border on the left is the bed post. I thought that was pretty cool. )

And fortunately the girlies had some good lighting in their room because I ended up getting a bunch of good shots of them in their bedroom. This one in the window was one of my favorites…

So, then we went outside and got some really great pictures with the chickens and the goats…soooo fun! But, I’m going to save the farm friends pictures for another post because I thought the boys would rather show off their cool moves. See…photo sessions don’t have to be boring! )

And of course…I got some lovey dovey shots of mom and dad…because they are THE lovey-doviest couple you could ever know. ) Seriously…LOVE that!

And then…last, but not least…I think this is my favorite shot of the day. Just love it…

Okay…I’m just going to try to knock out a few of these very quickly here…

This is one of the most incredible families you could ever be blessed to know. ) I just love every one of them! They were one of the first families that we met when we started attending our church (Sovereign Grace in Gilbert…can’t possibly say enough wonderful things about my church!) 7 years ago. Anyway…their kids were so little then…and so were mine! I can’t believe how all these kiddos are just growing up right before my eyes!

Their kids took a photography class I taught last year and it has been so neat to see how much Miss K still LOVES photography. )

Here’s your sneak peek guys! Thanks for being….you!
