Just A Tease

A little teaser from my session this afternoon...  :) 

What's On The Outside DOES Matter

Normally, I wouldn't say that.  But, in this case its true.  I've been working for awhile on finding packaging that I'm happy with.  I want you (my clients) to receive your prints or CD or album and be (almost) as happy about the outside as you are about what's inside.  I want you to know you are getting something I've put my heart and soul into.  I want my packaging to communicate that what you are about to open is worth the time and money and patience you've put into it.  I want you to feel like its Christmas!  So, after scouring stores and online and everywhere to find what is perfect for communicating my brand to you, I am happy (for now) with the finished product.  So, whether you've ordered one 4x6 or a whole wall of giant art prints, you will know its something special by how its dressed.  :)

#52: Beat Dan at Scrabble.

Wow, this happened much faster than I thought it would.  I've.  Never.  Beat him.  At Scrabble.  Ever.  Not that we really play all that much, but usually its our game of choice when we go camping, or when we are board at home (which isn't very often).  But Dan is a word whiz, and, well, I am not.  So, it seemed to be a major feat for me.  But, the other night I told him I wanted to cross something off my 101 List, so I would beat him at Scrabble.  And then I did.  That was it.  No months of trying, long nights of staring at letter tiles.  I just beat him.  :)

The Beautiful Jocelyn - Mesquite High Senior Photos

This. Girl. Is. Gorgeous.  Inside and out.  We had so much fun and I love the variety of locations we found!  Enjoy!

She totally knew how to work the camera!

Love, love, LOVE her blue eyes!

We decided to go bold and hit up the graffiti wall...

...and the lime green one.  LOVE this.

Jocelyn's bud Hilary came along so we had to get a few shots of both of them :)

#44: Go to a drive-in movie.

I've been meaning to post this all week.  For Valentine's Day, Dan and I got to go on a date!  Just us!  Dan's mom was here for the week so she took over Greyson-duty and we got Pei Wei take out and went to the drive in :)  It was pretty fun.  We saw Valentine's Day (I know, sappy) but it was cute and fun and it knocked something of the list!  Woo hoo!

More of Sweet Kaden

Kaden was awake and alert for most of our little session, so I just love how natural these turned out.  Like, just a peek into life with a new little one.  How sweet are those days!

These guys have painted several walls in their house great shades of blues, so they made for some great backdrops.

Does it get any better?

Love his face in this one!

Greyson 6 Months

Can you believe he is 6 months already??  I can't for sure.  It seems to have flown by so fast.  Greyson is a big boy for his age, and I think he looks so old in these photos, like a little boy!  I can't believe how long he stood leaning against that wall all by himself!  Enjoy!

Everyone Needs A Little Inspiration

Sometimes I feel stuck.  Sometimes I just want fresh ideas.  Here are some inspiration boards I made to get the creative juices flowing.  Hopefully they will help you too in thinking of wardrobe options, locations, etc.  All the images are pulled from fun online catalogues from stores including Anthropologie, Forever21, Delias, and HTG81 Kids.  You like?
