If you waited to schedule your children’s or family’s portrait session… GOOD NEWS!  D’Nan has availability for a few last minute sessions before the holidays.  Even better… they’re to benefit CHARITY.  I like the flurry of activity that seems to go along with this time of year.  I’m almost done my shopping, and the kids are still in school… so I thought I’d squeeze in a few more sessions just for the fun of it. 

Be sure to read the announcements at the top of my blog for more details.  Hurry… schedule your session today! 

The donations will be to the same 3 causes from November.  You can support Relay For Life, Adopt A Child, or support a Local Family’s Mini-Home Makeover.   Now that’s something to smile about!!

Today I made new friends!  This little darlin’ is SUCH a sweetheart!

Mommy,  I knew it within the first few shots of our session!   Your little angels were SOOO cooperative that I’m going to have a very hard time narrowing down my favorites.  Thanks for such a wonderful morning!  You were all so much fun!!

Wonderful Warm Weather!!

November 8, 2009

mini-session-charity-promotion-extension-copyThe weather forecast for our area for Monday and Tuesday is for high temps in the mid to upper 60’s!  There are still a few places around town with some beautiful fall foliage still on the trees.  For November, we just can’t count on many more great days like these.  For such beautiful November weather, I’ll open on a Monday!  If you would like to schedule an outdoor session for Monday, November 9 or Tuesday, November 10, please give me a call at 443-987-6SUN.  Since this is such a special opportunity… I’m even extending the opportunity to take advantage of Mini-sessions for Charity.    

 

Six Smiles for a Cause

November 8, 2009

This family was fun.  I’ve created portraits where 2 families will come together for a session to create a gift for Grandma for Christmas.  But this family with 6 kids was just fun!  I loved the dynamics of how you all get along so well together.

It was really hard to only share one individual portrait… because you were all so photogenic.  But I couldn’t resist this one.  THIS is what happens when Big Brother stands behind my head with a squawking rubber chicken!  Mom… don’t you just love that chicken now?

Mom… my absolute favorite is the very last image of all of you with your silly faces (and the ones of you and the kids).  I’m keeping those and the ones with all six of you together as my surprise for your gallery.

Thanks so much for being so amazingly cooperative and for sharing in this opportunity to help a local family. 

Smiles for a cause!

November 8, 2009

These handsome gentlemen were troopers!  You’d never guess by their warm smiles that it was a bit chilly outside.  Of course, after this it was off for soup and ice cream!  YUMMY… that’s something to smile about.

Not only that, but your session will support The American Cancer Society… something we can all smile about.

Thanks, guys, for being such wonderful sports! 

New Friends!

November 4, 2009

It was nice to get to make some new friends today!   This little guy was so sweet…

001dsc_3735_bl_silber_110409_wm1And his handsome big brother was lots of fun, too.

 

003dsc_3867_pc_silber_1109_wm

As a special treat, Grandpa is visiting and came along to join in our fun.  It is very obvious that he loves his grandsons very much and that they are very fond of him.

005dsc_3900_bl_silber_110409_wm1

It was wonderful to get to meet all of you.  Thanks for being such good boys today!

Happy Birthday, Daddy!

This little DOLL baby has just grown SO fast since I met her this summer!  She was such a good girl today!

001dsc_3578_bl_harley_1109_wm

She was cute before, but now she has this precious little smile!

Daddy’s Little Angel

October 23, 2009

Newborn sessions are ALWAYS special.  But this one was extra special because this is a little girl I’ve been waiting to meet.  I am so very happy for all of you. 

005dsc_2828_bl_moran_1009_wm

She is already the absolute center of Mommy’s world… 

001dsc_2762_bl_moran_1009_wm

004dsc_2784_bl_moran_1009_wm

 You are a beautiful family.

May you always be as happy as you are now.
