Sneaky Peeky!!

April 30, 2009

A couple from yesterdays session.  This little sweety is six months, time flies when taking pictures of babies.  She was an awesome newborn to take pics of and she still does a fabulous job.  I decided to try out a couple of my new toys on one of these, I think they would be fun on a portrait for a play room or kids room.  I can imagine having lots of fun with these shapes, especially when I learn how to use them better, for now, though, this is what I came up with.  She is quite the princess anyway, so this is very fitting for her six month shot I think.

A Fun New Item

April 24, 2009

This is all the rage in storyboards these days, so I thought I’d try one out.  I love the colors of the background with the black and white pics.  Not sure what I’m going to do with them, but I think they’d make a cute little calendar or something like that….stay tuned to see what I come up with.

Meet Milo

April 21, 2009

This is our new little puppy, isn’t he a cutie?  We just brought him home today, and the kids are in heaven.  He is going to get  a lot of love, I think Darby even approves.

Baby On The Way….

April 20, 2009

I got to take pics of this beautiful mama’s belly yesterday afternoon and we got some great shots despite the rain.  I had to do something I never really do, but these little shoes just screamed for me to do the selective color.  I can’t wait the meet the little sweety when she makes her appearance, and can I just add, she has the coolest baby room I’ve ever seen.

It has been fun watching this little cutie grow through the baby plan.  This time we got big brother involved and they were both just perfect.  Thankfully the weather cooperated and we got to get some of the tulips before it was too late.  This might be my only session with the tulips this year if the weather keeps interfering.  reichardswebimg_2517reichardswebimg_2629reichardswebimg_2693

Sweet Baby

April 17, 2009

This little sweetheart was the perfect baby, wide awake when I got there, and then fell asleep for me, too.  She was so easy going, let me move her around without even a peep.  She even smiled for me in some of them.  Thanks for being such a rock star for me today little M.  riggswebimg_2285riggswebimg_2374

Easter Egg Coloring

April 14, 2009

We colored some eggs before we went to my parents house for Easter this weekend.  Hopefully I will have some shots from Easter as well, but they are on my other camera, so these are all I have for now.  The boys loved coloring eggs, especially adding the Star Wars stickers and extras.

Soccer Time!!!

April 10, 2009

Ben is playing soccer for the first time this year, and he’s a natural.  He really loves it, we had a hard time convincing him at the first practice, but once he got started there was no stopping him.  I just got this new little point and shoot camera with video that I tried out on his game the other night.  I also used imovie for the first time, which, I am not very good at yet, but it was a fun little start.  I can see many more videos with this little camera in my future.

Little Miss E

April 4, 2009

I know by seeing these pics you must think she’s a quiet little solemn thing, but the funny thing is, she never stops talking.  I just always tend to like the really moody shots with her, while she contemplating something I just asked, or not paying attention at all to me.  So today I thought I’d throw one in there of her  smiling.  She’s one of those kids that you know when you see her she’s gonna be a knockout when she grows up, just look at those eyes.ellabwwebimg_2173ellawebimg_2155ellawebimg_2163
