Mommy and Me Limited Edition Sessions

This Mother's Day be part of a gift that keeps on giving for generations to come with an in-studio session featuring Mommy and Me! We will also take time to capture some of the little ones by themselves or get the perfect sibling portrait for your mantel.

It's not about how thick or thin you are, how long or short your hair is or if one of your kids just played barber on their brother. It's about being who you are at this moment.

So go ahead, step out from behind the camera and prove to the world that you did exist, your children do look like you and that you are loving every minute of your Motherhood.

Join us for the Mommy & Me Limited Edition Sessions on April 26th!

The $250 Limited Edition Fee includes 30 minutes in studio, 1 Framed 11x14 Wall Portraits and 2 Gift Portraits, perfect for Mother's Day gifts for the grandmas.

One lucky fella

Just a sneak peek for some new friends. I had a GREAT time at your session and it's always such a compliment when someone tells me they had FUN! I always have fun, I get to do what I love every day! But I love hearing that YOU had a blast too!

There are soooo many awesome shots from your session, I didn't even know where to begin to grab your sneak peek! I think you both looked like beautiful Goddesses in the wraps. You both just glowed from within. This little boy is one lucky little fella to have you two in his life.

I just love the connection in this image.

This image feels very regal to me, such drama!

A classic and timeless beauty.

Thanks L and J for such an awesome session!

Now you can frame it!

We started offering framing in mid February and it has been very well received so far! I keep forgetting to take pictures of the framed portraits before they go out, but today I finally remembered.

Currently we are only offering two different frame choices - black or white - but I'm sure we will soon take on a few more options. And just like our wonderfully popular Canvas Wall Art pieces, framing allows you to purchase a "ready to hang" item. And how nice is it to be able to just pull your finished personal artwork out of your bag when you get home and hang it right on the wall! As always I am here to help you find what you need, so don't hesitate to ask for something specific. I'll do my best to find it for you!

Custom matting is also available - you just have ask for it! The sky is the limit on matting color and size choices, if you want it, I'll do my best to find it for you!

Oh I love to watch them grow!

Here's baby H. coming to celebrate her 4 month birthday and to capture all the milestones she's reached so far! This bundle of sweetness can hold her head up so nicely and what a SMILE! And hardly a peep out of her the whole time. What a nice little baby she is!

And a little nod to mom... having you here is like spending an hour with an old friend. Thank you so much for "getting me". Time flies way too fast when you guys are around!
