Baby on the Way!

Kelly and Tom came in last Saturday for their maternity session. Kelly really wanted to do this session and it was awsome that Tom wanted to be a part of it. I never really noticed how beautiful women are when they are pregnant. They really glow and it such a magical time. Most people won't see it but when I got behind the camera this time I noticed something different. I just can't explain it.

I also think that maternity photographs have so much more meaning when the man is involoved or even children. it brings so much more meaning to the photograph. I had such a hard time figuring out what photos to put up on my blog.This by far has been my favorite maternity shoot. If you CLICK HERE you can see a slideshow of the sitting.

By the way Kelly is due on March 16th! A St Patty's Day baby maybe?

Some Drinking Fun!

Okay so I was downloading photos from my point and shoot and came upon these. About a month ago I went out to dinner at Eastside Resturant in New Britain with Christine and Sean. It is a German resturant with very large beers and great food. They have an acoridion player and for some reason they waitress came out and gave us these hats to wear. I don't know if it was the beer in us or what but we took pictures and kept hysterically laughing.

Pregnant Bellies!

So in the past 2 months I have had the pleasure of photographing 2 women and their bellies! One of them is my bride from this past fall. It was great to have Angela (the fall bride) come back and let me photograph her and her belly. We did some really nice artsy, more artistic photographs and then some fun ones as well. I love when my past clients come back to me. I feel more of a connection and I am really looking forward to meeting this little one on the way.


As for my other client I had such a blast with her and her 2 daughters. She had found out that this child was to be a boy! How exciting for her since she already has 2 girls. I really enjoyed our session. It was nice to have her children part of the session and interact with the belly. This photograph below was one of my favorites.

Thinking Out Of The Box

Okay so I have been really bad at posting latley...more like being lazy. It has been cold and snowy so I have been hibernating inside. But a couple of weeks ago I did this shoot. I love doing materinity and boudior sessions. They are a creative outlet for me. Something out of the box and different. To me boudoir is so sexy. It gives a chance for us women to be someone else for a bit. Be out of our element and feel sexy for a moment. Surprise our husband, boyfriend or partner.

The below photograph is just a sample of my session. If any women are interested

I Can't Stop Laughing!

As my title of the post I cannot stop laughing at this photograph. It's of Rob at maybe the age of 2 or 3. Nobody seems to know how old he was here. HIs aunt's found this photo at their home and I am cracking up! Who would of known that this photo would tell the future of Rob and the beer he drinks. That's right Rob loves good ole American beer Bud or Miller. HA!

At the Stables

About 2 Saturdays ago, yeah i know I am bad at posting, I went to photograph Lexi and her horse Brick. It was so cold and icy that day we ended up only doing a couple of shots with Brick. After the bitter cold got to us we went to her house and had so much fun indoors. This was really a treat for me. I enjoyed using the natural light coming in from this big bay window. The lighting was so beautiful. Lexi told me half way into the shoot that she is a country singer and some of these shoots she wants to use for her CD cover. How exciting to be 13 and recording an album. Good Luck Lexi!

Kerri & Danny

I am so honored to be a part of Kerri & Danny's wedding. Danny is my friend Tara's brother in-law. And to be chosen as their photographer makes me jump for joy! I feel like I am part of the family now.

Kerri & Danny came in Feb 10th for their engagement photos. We had a blast in my studio. It was so much fun for me because I rarely get to shoot in studio and play with lighting and new backgrounds. Kerri and Danny's wedding is coming up quick on June 30th and the reception is at Lake of Isles on of my favorite place to shoot. Love the grounds, the food and staff.

Below is a link to view their slideshow. ENJOY!
