{Beautiful Baby Alyssa}

02.26.10 Posted in Newborn 9 comments

I can’t even begin to describe how excited I am for Greg and Amanda. Alyssa is perfect in EVERY way. And honestly, I can’t get enough of looking at her adorable full head of hair.

I took this the morning after she was born. It makes me want to cry, mother/daughter love.

Her little sleeping smile.

Seriously, how cute is all her hair?

Another one of my favorites. I love the simplicity of it.

This just makes me smile.

What a little peanut.

I love her profile and her cutie nose!

Hello sweet baby girl.

I just had to post this one again, because it is one of my new favorites.

Don’t forget… get your last minute comment in on Craig and Nicholle’s post here and you could win a $10 iTunes Giftcard.

Yippee! I am super excited to post this engagement session. Nicholle was my amazing mentor when I was a teacher last year and we instantly became great friends. Nicholle met this very handsome hockey player, he kept asking her out, finally she agreed and the rest is history. I CANNOT wait until their wedding. Although I only know Craig a little, I know how happy he makes Nic, I see it all over her face every time I see her. They made my job super easy since they are both… ummm… gorgeous!!! I also must add, I am super excited because on my recommendation Nic decided to hire the amazingly talented husband and wife team, Zach and Jody, of Gray Photography. I can’t wait to meet them and I know they are going to do a rockin’ awesome job shooting Nic and Craig’s wedding. Oh and by the way… we took all of these in Miami, some in the Design District and some on North Miami Beach.

So I decided I am going to do another little giveaway. This time I’ve decided to give away one of my favorite things and I’ve upped the ante a little to a $10 iTunes giftcard! Woot woot!

Here’s the deal. Leave a comment and tell me which image of Craig and Nicholle is your favorite and why. It’s that simple. You have until Friday @ 12am EST.

#1 – I love this one… they used it for the front of their “Save the Dates” I made.

#2 – The Design District in Miami had some awesome backgrounds. This background was my fav!

#3 – I love their happiness in this picture.

#4 – Umm… Nicholle, you are INSANELY gorgeous!

#5 – Oh and I forgot to mention, Craig is not just any hockey player, he is the STARTING goalie for the Colorado Avalanche!

#6 – Nic loves this one! Now you can see what I mean about how happy she looks.

#7 – This is why I live in Florida!

And these are just an added bonus.

They are going to have some seriously cute kids someday. Oh and P.S. Look at Craig’s smile… he is no typical hockey player!

So get to voting, maybe you will win an iTunes giftcard, like Theo won a Starbucks one!

Okay, I haaaavvvveeee to post this one too. More of Baby Alyssa on Friday!

Happy Tuesday!

{January was one FABULOUS month}

02.01.10 Posted in Newborn, Photographers 3 comments

Wow! I cannot believe January is already over. Where did it go? This was definitely the best month of my year so far! So many exciting things happened this month. I am sooo excited that I had 1,230 people stop by my blog this month! Woohoo… that is the HIGHEST ever! So exciting.

On Thursday, I received a totally awesome email from Miller’s Lab asking if they could use my business card in their upcoming newsletter. Needless to say, I nearly fell out of my chair when I read it. I was BEYOND excited. Little did I know that when they meant upcoming newsletter they meant it would be out the day after they asked me! Glad they liked my new design!

But by far the most exciting thing that happened this month… happened at 9:36pm last night.

Baby Alyssa was born and WOW she is BEAUTIFUL.

She is absolutely perfect and I am sooo excited for Amanda and Greg! I cannot believe that a year and a half ago I was photographing their wedding!

Later this week, I will be posting more images of my sister, an actual shoot of Baby Alyssa and some Share the Love photographs!

God blessed me immensely in January and I cannot wait to see what He has in store for February!

The other day I received this beauty in the mail and couldn’t have been more excited! These are the newest product I am offering for portrait sessions. Why a bunch of individual prints? When you can have them in a beautifully bound album. Love it! Everyone should want one of these beautiful Finao albums.

Lori, great job on the cover choice! {There are many different options, but I love this one}

This is not only a great way to show off your pictures, but come on now, it would be such an awesome present.

Think about Grandma opening one of these on Christmas morning – I’m just saying!

In other news… today is my niece Kayleigh’s birthday! Happy Birthday KJ!

Last update. I have been having the MOST FUN WEEK.

Brett’s college roommate, Jarrod, came in town and we have been having a blast all week.

I.held.an.alligator.today. If that tells you anything. Many many pictures to come.

Oh and one last picture, this little cutie fell asleep on my couch last night! Oh baby Ayden.

Check out his Newborn session here.

I love this baby so much! Ayden is my best friend, Danielle’s, new baby boy. I knew right from the beginning when Danielle found out she was pregnant. And now… after so much waiting and praying, this PERFECT little boy is here and I couldn’t be more thrilled.

And he loves me! He might not know it yet. But with as much as I love him, I am sure he will return the favor!
