Little Mia & Jack


I'm sorry...I realize it's been a while since my last entry. I promise to try and get better with my blogging. It's all very new, so it may take me a little while to get the hang of it. For this entry I wanted to tell a story of my recent photo sessions with Little Mia & Jack.

Their photos were taken during separate shoots on the same day. And all I have to say is that they're both gonna be heart breakers. Just look at these faces! I started out the day at the Berry household. Mia was the primary reason for our session, but we were also able to take several family photos in addition to hers. She is a very happy child and constantly on the move (unless she has a doll or barrette in her hands). Just over a year old and mobile! She is quite an independant little girl with a smile to melt your heart.

After their session ended, I headed back home and set up the studio for the Gandy family. What a loving and caring family they are. They have an adorable little boy named Jack who has the prettiest eyes you've ever seen. He is also a mover and a shaker, but can't walk yet so it was a little easier to keep him in the area. He liked to play peek-a-boo behind that hand of his, but was mostly all smiles for the camera. What a cutie!

Many people who are interested in having their children photographed often ask what they should bring to a shoot. I would say that it is essential to have toys (or anything to keep them content if they get a little fussy), a couple different wardrobe options and bottles, pacifiers or a blanky if they are younger. Our goal is to make your child feel comfortable and at home during his/her session.

If they do get a little fussy, we can always take a break to help them get back on track. Sometimes all that attention just gets to be too much and they need a breather. Isn't that the case for us all?

Well, signing off for now, but I promise to blog again very soon!
