Congratulations to Starr & Thomas

Before I get into all kinds of trouble, no, I do not normally do weddings. Occassionally if my schedule allows, I will take on a small, intimate, outdoor wedding. Even then it is usually only one or two a year. I bow down to wedding photograhers. Weddings are soooo much work! I'll chase a two year old around for a couple of hours any day!!! :)

Anyway, I have taken a long time to finish these up, so I thought I would give Starr & Thomas a little peek while their photos are being printed and their album assembled. I hope you guys had a wonderful honeymoon! I'll be in touch soon!





And my favorite...I think:

One last session in Maryland

So I get a call from one of my favorite clients looking for a family session at the beach. Of course I jump at the chance. Then she gives me the news. They have put their house up for sale and will be moving soon. :( So sad for me, but happy for them as they are obviously excited about the new adventure. So no pressure here or anything. They just want some special photos to remember their time here in Maryland. ;) Luckily for me they are some of the easiest people in the world to photograph. They are so great, so much fun and just completely gorgeous. My biggest problem with them is narrowing down the number of proofs I have to show them to a reasonable number.

Anyway, here is a little sneak peek for them. We waited what seemed like forever for the sunset this night. It was so pretty though. A little Southern Maryland sunset with the Solomon's bridge there in the background.

Their gorgeous little girl. I am convinced that this child can not take a bad picture.
Their little prince. Not sure if you can see the sand all over his face, but he was really "getting in to" this whole beach photo session thing. :)
And finally...I can't take credit for this idea. I've done variations during senior sessions and engagement sessions on the beach, but never thought to do it with a family. Can I just say that I LOVE IT!!
I'll have the rest of these up for you guys soon!!

Summer Fun

I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July!! We almost put the kids to bed last night assuming that the fireworks had been cancelled due to the storm. We heard a couple of fireworks go off in the distance, so we jumped in the car with the kids and raced over to Solomons. I wish I had some photos to share of the show, but in our rush to get out the door I left my camera. :( Oh well! Maybe next year!

I still have a couple of clients still patiently waiting to see their photos that I took before I left for vacation. If you are waiting, I am here to let you know that I am almost caught up and they will be ready for you shortly! Here are a couple from a session I am currently working on posting. I had to share this gorgeous little princess...

holding Daddy's hand...awww...
and one of her brother and the crab he found on the beach.
He was definitely more interested in all the beach critters than he was in having his photo taken. :) Hey, who wouldn't be?!?!
I'm off to get a little more work in before naptime is over. I'll have tons of stuff to share in the coming days, including another mini session announcement. Don't miss it!
