I LOVE how this set of portraits came out of Aimee & Matt's family came out! Brock is their son, and Jordyn is their newborn baby girl - they are a beautiful set of children!

They look so close knit and that's such an important thing for a family to be. Thanks y'all for having me do another session for you guys.

Leave some comment love for the Bourgeois gang!

Ellie Grace & Kate

02.24.10

I did a combo photo session for the Wanko sisters (Mary Clement & Michele Broome) with their daughters. These were Ellie Grace's (Mary) 1 year old & Kate's (Michele) 5 month old portraits. We got some stunning photos - the Wanko genes work pretty good, huh?

These are only a few of my favorite shots!

Thank you once again for having me do these!

The Burton Family Shot by TTP

02.23.10

Melissa contacted me a while back and said she wanted to get her side of the family together to do some portraits with all the "grandkids" together, plus this and that. I have always loved her - such a bubbly personality. She married my cousin, Christian Bourgeois, and they're residing in Florida now. A cool fact - she picked up some American Sign Language because they live in St. Augustine where the Florida School for the Deaf & Blind is!

Groovy family. We did her family, Tony's (Melissa's bro) family, their parents, all the kids, and all the above! Tony has five kids and Melissa has one - they're all an adorable bunch as shown below in this entry!

Enjoy the photos, and leave some comment love for them to read!

Thanks to the Burton & Bourgeois family for having me do such special photos!

Margo's Lola

02.10.10

Margo asked me to do Lola's two year old photos and I just love how they came out! Her birthday party the following day was Minnie Mouse themed so she wanted some in her birthday outfit as well.

Thanks Margo!

I love the fact her "bloomer leggings" are out of whack above. Gives it personality!

The Davidsons : Round Four

02.04.10

Here are the Davidsons who are rapidly becoming my top client these days! They have hired me not once, not twice, not thrice.... but FOUR times within a year! They "get" the fact that I am a good deal! You could go to a photographer for professional photos and pay up to 500 plus for prints..... whereas you can come to ME, a professional photographer too, and get the most kick ass photos for a nice little buck AND a CD! ;-) I am nothing but honored to be chosen by the Davidsons to document their lil tyke, Chase, throughout his growing pains. We did their maternity session, then his newborn, then 3 mos old shoot, and now here are his SIX month photos. He is a charming little man and I cannot wait to see how he grows even more (even though his parents probably want him to stay a baby........... I would too!).

Again, to the Davidsons - THANK YOU. Enjoy these for years to come!!!!!!!

GO SAINTS!!!!!!!!!

The photo above is one of my favorites ever captured of a family. It's so haunting but still a gorgeous photograph. I hope I can do this for myself when Sarah and I start a hood!
