A new addition for 2009 is I am now selling digital files,
my first digital collection starts at $400 and includes the following;
5- High resolution Images on a disc

LIttle Man "T", here is your sneak peak!

I had the pleasure of Photographing a Gorgeous 4 month old little boy today, yes boys can be gorgeous too.

He is such a sweetie!

Here are a couple that I've pulled out so far, "B & E" I hope you enjoy your sneak peak, I really enjoyed Photographing "T" today, he is def a sweetie. I'll have your full gallery up soon!




I know it's not a smiley pictures, but I couldnt get over his face anytime he touched my furry rug! lol

Little Miss "K" here is your sneak peak!

Brrr... today was sure a chilly one, but little miss K was a trooper and braved the chilly air to have her picture taken, well that is until we went to the Studio where it was freezing! (broken furnace, lovely huh?), so we rescheduled the Studio Shots for a later date until I can get in there and make it all nice and warm for her.

K is definitely a little character, and one of the best behaved 2 year olds I have ever met and she is super cute.


N, A and Grandma, I hope you enjoy your sneak peak and once again, sorry it was so cold! I hope K is feeling well after her Dr's appt.

Thank you for coming out and having some fun with me!

Little Mr "B" your sneak peak!

I had a lot of fun with B today, he took 2nd place Grand Prize in my Fresh Faces Search and we did part of his session today, unfortunately it was raining so we didn't get any outdoor shots! Can't wait for the 2nd part of our session little King ;) Remember you have to show me how to play soccer!

"C" you have a very fine young man on your hands and I admit I had a hard time narrowing down his pictures, not only is he a funny, sweet, and an adorable little boy, you were right that he's a ham, and he didn't give me one "bad" shot. Perhaps you have a little model on your hands?


Without further ado... (you can click on them to make them larger)






and his "Peace Out" for fun...


I'll be in contact to schedule the 2nd part of the session and the full gallery will be up within a couple days.
