I just wanted to say Merry Christmas to everyone and share our Christmas card. It was printed as a 5×5 tri-fold (so it has 6 sides)

Have I said lately how much I LOVE my job?  I think this shoot is one reason why.  I don’t have the opportunity to photograph toddlers very often but when I do, I LOVE it!  Jacob is a returning client (newborn, 6 mo., year, 18 mo.).  His mom wanted a Christmas card picture and we got plenty!  We started on his favorite rocking horse – check out his awesome PJ’s!

Then we bribed him with candy

Then we bundled him up and went outside in the 16 degree weather brrrr

I thought it was all going to be over when he toppled in the snow

But he brushed himself off and had a great time outside!

And here is the card I designed for them (shhh don’t tell anyone – they haven’t been delivered yet!)

Merry Christmas and thank you for the wonderful session!

Just catching up on my blogging when I realized I didn’t blog this session!!! I had done Kassi’s senior pictures earlier in year and they wanted a family session done with the dogs for Christmas. The session was in their yard and the weather was great (contrary to what the forecast called for) I loved their outfits – color-coordinated and casual!

What teen girl is not always on her cell???

And I hope its ok to post your card since you have them all mailed and delivered already!!!!

Merry Christmas! It was a pleasure photographing your family!

I’m glad we got Sarah’s session in when we did.  It was a windy day but it was the last 70 degree day we had.  The temp dropped to the 30′s by the weekend brrrr.  Sarah’s session was held at Kampmier’s farm out in Sycamore.  Sarah helps out and rides Blaze so she wanted to incorporate him into the shoot and Jody happily obliged.  Thank you Jody – Blaze was very interested in everything we were doing – he is VERY photogenic!  Hope you like your portraits Sarah!
