Canvas Wall

Sorry to be away so long - it is that time of year when I just cannot seem to catch my breath! Session after session after session! I have about, oh...20 sneak peeks I need to get up and many albums needing to be designed, holiday cards waiting to be designed, etc! Today is my first "office" day in about a month! No sessions, just nose to the grindstone getting things done!

One of the things I have been working on is a canvas wall for this client. Sometimes clients prefer to display a variety of images on their walls as opposed to just choosing one or two favorites. We put together this canvas wall that is approximately 50 inches wide and includes a good variety of images. I can't wait to see pictures of it when the canvases are hanging in place!

Rain, Rain, Go Away...

OK, so it wasn't actually raining. But little M is so in love with her umbrella that we had to include it in the session. And luckily, they had just watered the plants at the gardens, so we had plenty of puddles to play in!

Fall Colors

Yes, we can get a taste of fall colors, even in the studio...

Brand New

So I walked into my client's home to get set up for their newborn session, and I saw this chair. How could we not use this chair? I have been looking for something like this for the studio for sooo long! So, we set up the lights, put up a damask curtain, and there you have it - instant studio! I'm sure they won't mind when I show up and knock on their door three or four days a week looking to use their chair, right? Right?

Redheads!

Whew! Look at the red hair on these boys! Mom said she preferred a more traditional feel to their images. We ended up at Great Falls - you can see the water behind one of the boys in his individual image. After all the rain last week, what a beautiful day we had!

Sleep? Not so much...

Mom really wanted a sleeping shot of baby M, but baby was not having it. She rocked her, she nursed her till she was overflowing, she swaddled her...but nothing. Luckily, little M gave an extra long blink at one point and we were able to snap it right away, to create the illusion of sleeping baby! Sometimes, that's the best we can do :)

Smiles and Curls

Sorry I have been away for so long - busy season is underway, and that means doing back-to-back sessions on a daily basis, which naturally cuts into my fun blogging time!

Here are a few from a recent outdoor session - when I first photographed this family several years ago, big brother had a head full of curls. He has outgrown them, but look who has assumed responsibility for them - with gusto!!
