*Thank You*

I just want to say Thank You to all of the boys that have come and modeled for my search and for all the boys that I still have scheduled to do their shoot. I appreciate such a great response and all the cute new faces to add to my portfolio! The model shoot for ages 5-11 is now closed.

I know I said I was going to do the younger boys at the end of September but it looks like it will be more in the middle of October now. I will post a search here soon to let you all know.

Thanks so much!!

*Boy Model Search*

I know you have all been waiting for my boy model search to begin. I am now ready to start accepting some boy models! I am going to split the ages for this search since it's going to be done much differently than my girls. My first search will be for boys ages 5-11. Now, I will not be providing clothing for these shoots but I am being very specific on the style that I am looking for. This does not mean that you need to go out and buy new clothes for the shoot - most of the styles can be put together by things you already have. If you have an idea for a style and aren't quite sure if it's what I'm looking for - please just take a photo of the outfit and email it to me. I'd love to see some different looks put together.

Here is one example of the style I am looking for:

I want funky layered clothing - things can be mismatched - it's the style now. I love blazers or suit jackets mixed with jeans. Some examples of jackets I like:

This particular brown curdoroy blazer was found at gap.com: http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=8634&pid=580823

This black pin-striped suit jacket was found at Walmart: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=8129979 It would look great with a t-shirt underneath and some dark washed jeans.

A Rocker T-shirt such as this one above found at Old Navy: http://www.oldnavy.com/browse/product.do?cid=41803&pid=577953&vid=1 would go great underneth a black jacket.

Vests such as the one above found at Old Navy: http://www.oldnavy.com/browse/product.do?cid=5978&pid=594532&scid=594532002 would also look great for this shoot.

I also love sweater vests (you can find almost anywhere) with a long sleeved button-up shirt - the shirt left untucked showing at the bottom of the vest.

I also would love hats for this shoot...Baseball hats turned to the side are always stylish as well as beanies. I also really love this hat below found at the Gap. http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=33830&pid=580091

I really like this #8 baseball hat from The Children's Place http://www.childrensplace.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10001&storeId=10001&productId=481616&langId=-1&exp=n&catTree=26601,26693,26880&clearance=0

I am not too picky on the pants - I do like the washed look more than others. I'd prefer not to have them in tight jeans (I know that's becoming more and more the style) Loose-fitting jeans will go much better with the look I'm trying to acheive.

Hopefully this gives you an idea of what it is I am looking for. Again, should you have any further questions, please contact me.

*Dari's Maternity Sneak-Peek*

Dari was so much fun to work with! She had the sweetest personality ever...and isn't her hair the cutest? :) Of course her husband, like all others, started to get bored towards the end of the session lol. But he'll be so happy to have these beautiful photos of his wife while she was carrying his precious little princess Lola! Here are just a few of my favorites. Thanks for coming Dari and Chris - I hope you like them!!

*Heidi's Maternity Sneak-Peek!*

I did Heidi's maternity photos today and had such a fun time working with her and her husband. She had the cutest little pregnant belly and body! I got a lot of amazing photos of her, but of course I don't have time to share them all. So I choose out a few favorite to edit for her sneak-peek. Hope you love them Heidi!

Isn't she just ADORABLE???

*T's Sneak-Peek*

These are my 2 favorites from my session with T. Isn't he a good looking kid? He was a lot of fun to work with!

*Tylee's Newborn Photo Session*

Meet little Tylee. She is such a beautiful little princess. I love all the photos that I got of her. Here are some favorites to share.

*Back From Vacation*

Hello Everyone! Sorry about the lack of activity on my blog recently. I took a nice break from work and went on vacation. It was lovely! But, I am now back and ready to jump back into work, so you'll be seeing lots more shares and posts.

I have received quite a few emails asking me about my boy model search that I was planning on doing this July. I am actually going to have to put it off until sometime in August due to vacation and then so many clients at the end of July that I need to accomodate. However, I will still be doing it, so just keep an eye out. If you are not on my mailing list then please send me a request to be added and I will be sending out an email to everyone on my list letting them know when I will be running the search.

Thanks so much!!!

*Kaiya's Sneak-Peek*

This is 9 month old Kaiya. She is Michaela's little sister (from my post below.) They have completely different coloring - Kaiya was just a little blonde hair blue eyed girl. Cute as can be. She was such a GOOD baby! She just sat and played in the studio for well over an hour and was just happy as could be, and every time it was time for her to have her photos done, she was wonderful! She didn't try to rip the angel wings off either (which is what most little ones her age do the second I try to put them on). It was such a treat to have such an easy 9 month old in the studio!

*Michaela's Sneak-Peek*

Oh my, what can I say about sweet Michaela....she was such a beautiful girl! She did such a great job with all the poses and you could tell she just loved being in front of the camera. She is 8 years old, so my oldest angel yet. It was a lot of fun to work with an older girl! As with most of my other girls, we got *SO* many amazing images, so it was really hard to only pick a select few for sharing on my blog.

*Cutest Kid Contest Winner*

I know some of you have been wondering about the photo shoot I did for the cutest kid contest winner so here is one of his pictures from our photo session. We couldn't get him away from my giant Tonka truck - same as other little boy that comes into the studio.
