Holiday Studio Sessions

I had quite a few indoor sessions right before the holidays.  For some of these sessions, I decided to try using white Christmas lights as a backdrop.  I ended up really liking the effect.  I have been having a lot of fun playing around with different backdrop ideas lately... stay tuned for more photos :)  For now, here are some of my favorites from the holiday sessions.

New Year's Resolution

I am not big into new year's resolutions, but this year I decided to make one... I am slightly embarrassed to admit this, but I have not gotten my family's photos developed since Ada's first birthday (2.5 years ago)!!  I will, on occasion,  print a few of my favorites to display in our home or to give to relatives, but I have not put a picture in a photo album for years. It bugs me so much that I've decided to make developing and organizing photos my resolution for 2012.  If anyone out there has any good ideas on how to make this project any easier or less expensive, please let me know :) 

Here are a couple of family sessions I did outdoors before it snowed.  Both days were quite chilly, but the kids did suprisingly well.

Rewind to 2011

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!  We feel so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends to celebrate the holidays with.  Ada thoroughly enjoyed Christmas this year and it was so fun to share in her excitement over Santa, presents, and being around all of her favorite people.  Ian got his first tooth among many other Christmas gifts and had fun taking in all the action.  The past couple weeks have been wonderful and busy, but now it's time to get back to business... 

Fall already seems like a distant memory, but I am just getting around to posting these family shoots back from October.  Many of these photos were used to make adorable Christmas cards.  It is so fun getting Christmas cards from my clients!
