Welcome

Welcome to my blog! Sit down, take a look around, have some coffee. : ) This is where I let myself think out loud, brainstorm, get ideas out there. This is also where I do sneak peaks to my clients shortly after their sessions, so if nothing else, there will always be new pictures to see! If you have ever wondered why you should choose custom photographer, read THIS. Please leave a comment so I know you were here!! I love hearing from all of you!

I am re-vamping my Senior Rep & Spokesmodel cards! I have been working on these all week. My seniors who are doing this with me will get to chose from these 4 awesome templates for their cards that they hand out!

I had gotten in touch with an old friend from school (8th-9th grade, to be exact!) and it just so happens that his beautiful girlfriend has done some modeling, so I jumped on the chance to do a shoot with her! She was a lot of fun, and even laughed at my sad pathetic jokes, which made me like her even more! ;) She was super easy to shoot, and was pretty at ease in front of the camera, which is always a plus! Here are a few of my fav's from her session!!

I am getting booked quickly between seniors and Christmas sessions, so book your session ASAP! I just have a few more slots open for Christmas shoots. Get your pictures done early for Christmas cards so you can get them out on time!! My cutoff date for Christmas photos is the first week of December, after that there is a premium you can pay to get a last minute session and rush delivery during the second week of December.

I am also still looking for Senior Spokesmodels/Representatives from many of the Tulsa area high schools. Even if you are homeschooled, you can be a senior rep! Earn a little extra money, and get a free session and some free prints!!

Cheers!

Mended Little Hearts



I had a very busy night last night! The coordinator of the Tulsa Chapter of Mended Little Hearts contacted me, wanting a group picture done. As some of you know, my son was a heart baby. He had Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA) and had pretty major open heart surgery when he was 12 days old, and only 3 lbs. To say the least it was a very scary time in out lives.

So it was totally by chance that Susan would contact ME of all people, to take a photo of their group!

Lets just say trying to get 25 kids, most of them 4 and under, to stay in a group and have their pictures taken is far from easy. Bless their hearts, its hard for ME to stand around and get my picture taken!!

So, it didn't go quite as planned. :) We got a shot out of it, but we are going to try for a park or some place like there, where we will have a better background, more room, and where the kids can get worn out a little before we try to keep them herded for a group picture. :)

If you know anyone who has a child with or who had a heart defect, this group is the place to go! I wish it had been around when we were going through everything with N. It would have been so great to talk to other parents who were experiencing the same trials, emotions, and confusion as we were at the time, and to know that we weren't alone. I am planning on joining the group, so if you have any questions feel free to email me and I will pass them along to Susan!

My almost-3-year-old

My son will be 3 in less then 2 months! :( It makes me sad that he is growing up so fast!

So after bribing him with some Cheerios and Oswald, he actually sat still for me for a little bit and I got to take some pictures of him. :) Plus, he thought the umbrella on one of the lights was really neat and kept talking about it.

Oh baby!!

I just finished up my baby announcements and added them to the "Cards and Announcements" section of my website! Go look and tell me what you think! When you book a newborn session with me, you will receive 5 complimentary announcements! They are printed at my professional lab, and are the best of the best when it comes to quality! Plus they are hand-designed...and can be changed up a little to suit your taste!
