another mini session ... thanks yvette and brian. i had a blast ... enjoy!

mini sessions were a great success ... i had a lot of fun with everyone who participated. the families were so adorable and everyone had great, coordinating outfits. i'm posting some favorites from day one. here is familia numero uno ... more to come in the next day or two of the others! ps- i looooved the urban sessions ... hope you do too!

we still have openings for seniors, maternity and newborn sessions but due to the cold weather and limited daytime schedules we are no longer booking family sessions for 2009. we are completely swamped around here shooting and editing family, wedding, commercial and senior sessions. i know many of you look forward to blog posts. i haven't been able to post as many as i would like but i promise i will once things settle down around here. we are taking names for our spring family sessions ... so please email us if you are interested so we can contact you in march. in the meatime ... here is a favorite family session we did recently with the holtgrieve family. my assistant lauren and i had so much fun photographing them doing their everyday things right in their back yard.

i had the honor of photographing lance and joslyn's fairytale wedding in orlando, florida last month. we were treated as if we were family during the 4 day event. their wedding was held at disney's wedding pavilion and the reception was at none other than the grand floridian resort a few steps away. i cannot say thank you enough to the lance, joslyn and their families + friends. everyone was so kind and crazy fun! amanda and i had such a great time shooting this wedding ... it was definitely a wedding to remember!

ok ... i stink at ring shots and i challenged myself to be a bit more creative this time around. i love the lollipop and i had to use the yummy mickey chocolate rice crispy treat joslyn ate as a snack too!

the flowers were unbelievable ... i just loved them!

joslyn you are sooo beautiful!~

lance ... look at you handsome groom! you are the sweetest :)

disney's "wedding pavilion" ... the skies were soo blue and yes it was like100 degrees and humid too!
