The owner loved it and I am getting ready to print a whole bunch of those for the boutique…..

The youngest one is only 6 months, so I didn’t want him to be exposed to outside germs and suggested to the family to set up the photo session in their own home. Here are a few of my favorite photos.

Here’s a couple tips on choosing the absolute best images from your portrait session. First off, consider what you are going to do with the images. Are they as gifts?

By far the absolute BEST way to choose your favorite pose is when you initially go through the images after the session is over. When you are looking at the images and you have a ‘gut’ reaction to one or more poses and expressions, and you instantly like it, well, that’s your heart talking. Trust your instinct more than anything.

An image for grandparents may not be the same pose that you and your family feel is the best pose that expresses who you are. (We don’t always see eye-to-eye on all matters)

We tend to get analytical with images, trying too hard to narrow it down to the ‘perfect’ one. There is no such thing as perfection. When you choose an image from the heart, years, many years from now you will still love that image.

A mistake we often make is to listen to other people. People we love and trust. Opinions from well-meaning friends or relatives. They tend to analyze the images in a worst way. Only you know where your heart lies. Follow it! And just nod your head and smile when they give you too much advice.

Where is the image going in your home? A favorite place is on the living room wall, over the sofa, as a decorative art piece. Is it going in the family room? Have a look in your home and give this some thought.

Call us and arrange for us to visit your home for a decor consultation. We’re brimming with ideas!

He said the only way he will take a shower is if he shaves me…. I was suckered into it….. Luckily no bad side effects on my face….

Here are a few of those photos, I hope you enjoy them.

Bikers for Babies is the fastest-growing fundraising event for the March of Dimes and plays an integral part in the advancement of our mission to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth and infant mortality. It is also one of the most important ways we have of ensuring that we can continue to fund our research and programs the fight premature birth and other threats to our babies’ health.

I have had the most amazing time, here is a small clip of my personal experience through the point and shoot lens.
