I took a few pictures of our wonderful babysitter in her cheer-leading outfit for her as she is graduating from the 8th grade. My kids just adore her and she is a blessing to us, as we feel so comfortable leaving our kids in her hands. We wish her all the best as she heads off to high school, we just don't want her to get to busy with school and boys, that she won't be available to babysit for us!:)

Patty Schmidt -

These are awesome. I love the first one, what a pretty young lady. You sure are luck to have her around. I wouldn’t advertise how great she is, everyone is going to want her to babysit for them!

She’s adorable. Can she really jump that high or was that some photoshop magic working? Great shots, beautiful girl. Best of luck in high school!

Take the time

Wednesday, May 28, 2008

I so love now that it is nice outside to get those outdoor shots. Finally the trees have their leaves and everything is green. So it will be officially summer at the Hall house starting this Friday as it will be my son's last day of school! Wow, how this year went by!  I hope the summer doesn't go by in the blink of an eye!

Remember to get your summer session booked as everyones summer schedules get booked in. Take the time to capture your memories in 2008 as it is almost half over already!! (scary to think isn't it!)

This Family did just that, they took the time! :)

I love this picture!

Remember pictures are the one thing you hold onto and look back onto for generations. Not just for your life time but your grandchildren and great grandchildrens.

Let me capture, Forever, this moment in your lives, as it will never come again.

Oh sure… now I feel guilty for never getting any good photos of the hubby and me. Too bad I don’t know an awesome photographer nearby. Any ideas of one??????

I forgot to mention the cute kidlets. How fair is it that they get a pretty little red head AND a baby with curls????? They hit the genetic jackpot!

Yes, this little cutie was a typical 2 year old. On the go and very busy doing her own thing! She didn't have time to get her picture taken!! But I managed to sneak in a few. :)

of baby "C". I have so many favs from his session. He was such a great model for me to photograph.

I wanted to keep him, but his parents weren't going for that.

Little chunk of love…

Tuesday, May 20, 2008

Oh, I love baby chunk, both my kids were little chunkers. I just want to sqeeze those cheeks!

Miss "L" was just a doll! Those baby blues are to die for! I can't wait to photograph her again at her next baby plan session when she can sit up. She is going to be so much fun, I love that age!

That’s Miss "E", and cute as good be! I had so much fun with her and her parents. Miss "E" was so smiley and happy through the whole session.

Yes I know, God did not grace me with a good singing voice. I only will attempt the ABC’s and well I guess…

I shouldn’t even sing that! Miss "E" got the point across that I am no good at singing the ABC’s either!:)

But it was hilarious when we sat Miss"E" in the grass, she did not want her legs to touch and she looked like this:

It was so funny! Way to work those abs!

I am ready to move…

Monday, May 12, 2008

and live next to the beach. I could walk it everyday and I don’t think it would get old. We had a great time on vacation! I am so glad we just DID IT! We still didn’t know for sure where we were going even on the morning we left! I had thought and looked into a little about Myrtle Beach the day before we left and thought it looked nice. But my husband wasn’t sure due to the storms that were crossing over many of the states that we would be driving through. He was more opting for the Dells and that just wasn’t going to fly with me! I needed a REAL vacation! So I told him lets just DO IT, Life is to short! I am so glad I didn’t just cave into my stressfulness of not being packed, not knowing of where to go and everything being last minute, oh and can’t forget one last trip to Urgent care for Nicholas for pink eye (second visit that week, other one for stitches!) and just say forget the whole vacation and just stay home!

But I didn’t and we made the trip to Myrtle Beach and it was beautiful!!!!!

I am so happy you made it. And, the boys loved our furry little friend Guinea visiting for the week.

Great pics. Nick is like the Karate Kid. And Zoe is just getting so darn old!

The one of Zoe is a favorite. Beautiful work!

Just what the doctor ordered…

Friday, May 2, 2008

…to cure my blues.

A little dose of baby "C" is all I need tonight to end my stressful week. This little guy was really the easiest newborn I have ever photographed. He fell right to sleep in minutes and stayed sleeping!! He must have been having some great dreams cause I just got smile after smile. And I was lovin’ every minute! So I just had to proof one of his pictures to show his parents since they have to wait longer then usual to see their proofs.

I will be on a much needed family vacation 5/3-5/11.

So I will not be able to answer emails or messages till I get back.

Hope everyone has a great week!

Growing families…

Thursday, May 1, 2008

The best part of my job is meeting wonderful families and seeing those families grow and change over the years. I meet this family a few years ago and have had the privilege to watch "B" grow into this adorable little boy and now he is going to be a big brother!! I can’t wait to meet the new addition to this family!

This was my first maternity session at the natural light studio so I had fun trying out some new things. I love how these turned out with the black background.

Isn’t that the sweetest family pic!

Amazing pictures Amy!! I remember this little guy as a baby, how he has grown. I love the family photo. Mom looks great. Congrats to you both.

Amy as I told you before, Bob and I love the photos. We are having a really hard time picking out photos for a collage. We have really enjoyed working with you the past few years!

Ohhh…and I do like the train one! I think it has a lot to do with Bobby being in LOVE with trains right now!
