I had the pleasure of capturing Miss Nora at only 3 days old. I have to say she is sooo scrumptious and the best baby! She slept the entire time and pretty much let me do anything I wanted with her. She needs to talk to all of my newborns and tell them how to act Not to mention she has 3 older brothers that were just angels as well. They adore their lil sister and were so sweet with her! Thank you sweet family for sharing with me!

Happy New Year everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know it has been forever since I blogged. I am so sorry. I had total intentions of posting alot with family images and I totally got lazy and didnt. So now its almost the New Year and Im behind! BUT in my absense I hope everyone got to spend alot of time with their families and got some (maybe a lil rest) over the Christmas holidays! My goal was to relax, do lots of fun things with the kids and just BE. I think I did a pretty good job. We baked cookies and went to Opryland hotel, watched alot alot of movies alll snuggled up on the couch by a fire that my best hubby built, we did do some shopping but to a minimum, we did  a few projects around the house and so on…get the idea? I am also doing some new treatments for my heath issues so000 is all of that a good excuse for not blogging? here are a few pics of misc things we have been up to! I hope you all have a wonderful New Year and find many new blessings in 2009!!

DISCLAIMER…when i say i was OFF, i mean OFF so these are total snapshots and do not represent my photography skills in any maner lol!!

With 3 sisters and lots of kids between us this is the mess you get.

I love love love this picture. We are really bad about never taking group pics except once a year at the beach so this year I set up the tripod and was determined to get a good group image. I think it went well!! I am soooooo sooooooo soooo blessed to belong to this lil family.

So that is just a small sneak into my christmas. Love to you all and enjoy these days that God has given us.

WOW. Where has this year, this month even, gone? CHRISTmas is only 8 days away! Are you ready? Have you finished shopping? Baking? Shipping? This year I am totally out of sorts. Im not sure if its all of the sick days I have put in this year with my kidneys and such or what BUT I just cant get it all together. My plan is to just BE. Just relax. Just enjoy my family and not worry about the rest. Im doing pretty good so far, maybe too good?

Sorry I havnt posted in a while, just wrapping up orders and getting them all shipped out. ALL orders will be shipped out today! The studio is officially closed and IM trying to wind down from this crazy season. I have been so blessed to serve you all and to capture your sweet families.

I do have some gift certificates left if anyone needs a quick (but awesome) gift. Let me know.

I will be back soon to post some family stuff.

Enjoy. Just enjoy.

Merrry CHristmas!!

Remember this lil diva? She is even cuter at 6 months!! I was thrilled to see Miss lyla again. She even brought along daddy this time. She came well prepared with some yummy cute clothes. I know some of you didnt even realize that I have a studio as well as doing on location. These are all done in studio. We have beautiful wood floors and the walls are lots of different colors for “backdrops”. This way it doesnt look like you are in a studio but instead in your home! Over the next few months I will be doing alot of changes in the studio and plan to have a big open house in spring! IT will be fun fun fun!! So go ahead and get your fill of yumminess….this is my last session of 2008! Stay tuned for lots of Christmas pics and loads of my own kiddos!!

Merry First Christmas Miss Lyla! I hope you had a good nap on the way home!
