I've had some tough lighting issues over the years & to me, the actual lake just doesn't photograph as well as it looks - this is all MY opinion! LOL

So I was a bit apprehensive when when my long time client suggested the lake again... only to my surprise, I ended up really loving everything about it. I decided to embrace the whole lake fully, it was a mind change & I think I have overcome my old view of lake photo sessions ;)

That was a surprise, that not even the weather-forecasters predicted!

This park is down the street from us... It's gorgeous, even in the almost dead of winter...

One evening we went out to get some updated family pictures of this new family of four.
As you can see, their 2-year old, Cole wasn't really having any of it... But we managed to get at least some pictures of him in action.

So, this gorgeous lady is pretty amazing... considering she is currently 33-weeks pregnant with TWIN BOYS who are each the size of full-term SINGLE babies @ 33 weeks.

I'm lucky enough to have had to travel 3,000 miles from California to Florida, only to meet this girl, who went to a High School 10 minutes away from mine & who graduated the SAME year as me (small world). Cassandra, her husband & my husband will all be graduating from the UF MBA program, this spring... Oh yeah, I failed to mention that Cassandra also works full-time & is also getting her MBA, could we ask her to do a little more?? ;)

She'll be full-term in THREE weeks & I'm dying to meet these two cute little boys... Nicholas & Issac.

Cassandra 2
Really... TWINS??? She makes us, pregnant women with only ONE look bad!

Cassandra 4
Her husband Pete (who also went to a near-by High School from mine, but 10 minutes south), has quite an impressive book collection & actually came up with the great idea to get the bookshelf in on the picture-action.
Pete & Cassandra actually came up with their sons names, using these two books. Pretty cool!

These pictures were from a month ago, they are of Laurie's "surprise gender baby" which was a BOY!! It's crazy to think that this is the little man that was in Laurie's belly for all those months!

Thanks to my friend & one of the best Gainesville photographers, Jaime Swanson, we did my first official newborn session. It was really interesting to watch how she she went about doing it, plus she helped me out with a few of my camera settings. Here is the end result for me...

Meet Baby Cole

This baby is going to have a tough time choosing which college team to be a fan of... because currently he's a University of Kentucky, Ohio & a UF Gator fan. As an insurance to the Gators, I made sure he put on this hat when Kirk & Laurie weren't looking! ;)

Although we won't know which team he'll choose in the end to love, we do know for certain he'll be quite the football fan & football player! :)

I'm lucky that my first try at taking Maternity Photos was with my gorgeous friend Laurie, who will be expecting her first child, who is a SURPRISE gender baby later this month! I'd like to say right now that my guess is that she is pregnant with a boy (Cole), but I would also like to add that I would be EQUALLY thrilled if little Julia came into this world... mainly because I'd like to dress her up & take millions of pictures of her, because IF it's a girl... I know she'd be gorgeous like her Mama!! Either way, I'm absolutely dying in anticipation because I am NOT a patient person & I've known of this precious bundle of joy since mid-January! So... here is my friend, Laurie.... beautifully pregnant with SURPRISE #1!! :)

Let's just take a few more pictures tomorrow morning". This is how we had our two mini-sessions! They are both completely different, so it was fun to do! Here is "take 2!" :)

I take many valuable lessons with me from this shoot & thank my dear friends for letting me capture their adorable family - which will most likely be expanding in the next few years (Diana is an exceptional Mother!) Anyway... more to come! :)

They will be getting married in January 2011. Garrick knows Jeremy from school and they are a very sweet couple.

Here are just a few.
I have abandoned my blogging & it's really sad because it always makes me feel so happy, when I feel like I'm being productive... I'll try to get back into the swing of things... but for now, this will be my last post!

HOWEVER!!!! I have some fun projects lined up in about a week & a half, I'll be shooting some sessions with some great people in CA, so please - check back in a couple weeks! I haven't gone anywhere, permanently! :)

Also, if you are interested in my services while I'm visiting Southern CA, please feel free to email me - I'll be in town 6/15 & will be staying for about three weeks! Thank you!!

I met up with these two cuties & their mom, Elissa at the park. Boy! Was I being adventurous when I decided my first photo shoot would be of 7 month old twins!! I had a really great time trying to get both these little guys to look at the camera for me at the same time... As you can see, it wasn't totally impossible! ;) Thank you Elissa, Jakob & Mikel!
