Facebook Profile Sessions!

I am offering something new. Wishing you had a better picture of yourself for Facebook or some other web based program? But of course you hate having your picture taken, right? Here's the deal... get 4 friends together, $15 per person, I will take 3-5 pictures of each of you. You will choose 2 pictures and I will send them to you resized for the web- these will not be full resolution images. You will receive my permission to use these pictures. So get your friends together, buy some wine, it will be quick and painless. Your session fee also includes generous photoshopping- I will smooth a few wrinkles, whiten some teeth, remove some bags under your eyes.... sound good? Email me if you are interested! First 2 people that book a Facebook session will not have to pay their individual fee!

Beautiful Sisters | Springfield, MA Portrait Photographer

I am on my way out the door on vacation but I had the wonderful pleasure of photographing these beautiful sisters tonight. We got rained out on Saturday night but we couldn't have asked for better weather tonight. Without further ado here are Miss K and Miss M. I asked them to try to not smile...

But it was so much easier for them to do this...



Thanks guys it was great to hang out with you tonight!

Two Cuties | Springfield MA child photographer

It has been 2 years since I last saw these two- my time flies. Mr C was very friendly, walked right in announced that he was 5 and made himself at home. Reminded me of another 5 year old boy I know. Mr C made so many faces that it was hard to get pictures like this one....

But I sure got a few like this one...

Miss H was not too sure about me.

We got her to smile just a little though.



Nice seeing you again!

Mr B | Springfield MA child photographer

This is the third time I have had the pleasure of photographing Mr. B. I love that. I love watching your children grow. I have to say he just keeps getting cuter!

For those of you that have been to my "studio", you know that the big windows in the room are a key part of my set up. This does have some disadvantages, like when my cat hangs out right outside the window. My subject are often drawn to the window to check out my backyard and tell me all the cool things they see out there, Mr B was no different.

Then we decided to strip him down! Of course by this time he was very comfortable in this space and began to explore some more.

Well nothing like putting a new crawler down into a very unfamiliar environment to slow him down. We all agree, mulch is not yummy.

Another New Baby! | Springfield MA newborn photographer

So I am pretty sure Mom, and her mom, have been checking my blog all day waiting for these pictures. Sorry for the delay- my own first baby turned 8 yesterday- not sure where the time went. Since my kids are no longer babies I LOVE photographing little newborns, I love holding them and snuggling them and then I have to remind myself to put them down and take their picture. Mr G is no exception to this rule. I have photographed his older sister many times and sometimes she likes me and sometimes, not so much. Well yesterday she was so excited to see me. She LOVES her little brother so much- my goodness. I walked in the door and snapped this picture right off the bat.

While Mom got Mr G settled I took advantage of Miss G's attention...
Now for the star of the show (um just don't tell his sister I said that, ok?)...



I love this picture- we have all been there, right?

I am loving this one in B&W.
Mr G is very lucky to have a big sister who just wants to squeeze him all the time!

My Twin Streak | Springfield MA newborn photographer

These little cuties are the third set of twin boys I have photographed in the past month and they are so sweet. I was there for over an hour and they barely complained. I love taking pictures of little ones, I get my baby snuggle fixes all the time. Here is Mr B- he loves to be held, I was so pleased to comply with that request at the end of our time.

Mr A was so chill and content.

By the end they were just exhausted.
Mr B getting some loving from his mama...
I wanted to share a pic of Mr A with his eyes open (which I have) but this one just keeps making me smile ...
Sleep tight Mr B- you did good.
