My iTunes:  Heartless by Kanye West covered by The Fray

One of my favorite things to do for clients is the gallery wrap canvases.  They are just beautiful and really can only be described as a piece of artwork.  When a client finds that one image, that goes in that one place….a print usually doesn’t do it justice.  But the wrap is stunning.  The shot above is one that was just delivered for one of my brides from her engagement session.  The size is 24×36 which will look great in the home they will soon share together.  I offer these for any session whether it’s newborns or families and they come in just about every size you could want for your home.

Below is a guest book I just ordered for Matt & Lisa’s wedding.  These are such a great alternative to the run-of-the-mill guest books you find everywhere you turn.  Granted, this one doesn’t come with a snazzy pen and stand but it will be treasured for years and years to come.  Hardbound, the pages are filled with your photos and instead of one line per guest to sign, there are full pages so they can actually leave you a note and wishes. Also, these are not only for my brides!  This is a great idea for any session as a lasting reminder!

These are just a couple of products I offer my clients.  If you are interested in these…pick your favorite image then let me know so I can answer any questions regarding sizing and pricing.

My iTunes:  Beautiful (acoustic) by Bethany Dillion

I sure have been photographing A LOT of babies lately!  I have to say that I am LOVING it.  So much sweetness!  Meet Leah and Reid.  I had a ton of fun with these two.  I was there to photograph Leah and then snuck out with Reid and snapped a few as she did her wardrobe change.  As I had said in the last post, I love watching siblings.  These two were a bit young to watch them together but it still makes me realize what a treasure siblings are to each other.  Hopefully as they grow, they will grow closer and closer.

My iTunes:  Late by Ben Folds

What a fun day!  This session was given to the parents from their kids as a gift and the locations were a surprise which made it even more fun.  I hope by the images you can tell how much fun we had getting shots and coming up with ideas.  One of the reasons I love to photograph family sessions is I love to watch the closeness.  As a mom, I love to see brothers and sisters that love each other….and more importantly, I love to capture that for them to see for themselves.  It totally translates in pictures.

I have to make a specific comment about that last image of this post.  Katie is a friend of my daughter and such a wonderful girl…ecclectic and fun.  I have been witness to her zest for life and it is contagious!  I noticed that day, she had written “satisfied” across her ring finger signifying her hope in Jesus Christ.  What a wonderful declaration to make!  A nice reminder that I need to make daily.  Thanks Katie.

“Because you have satisfied me, God, I promised to do everything you say.”
