Michelle – Class of 2009

I had a fabulous time with Michelle and her mom when we met in St. Augustine, FL for Michelle’s Senior shoot. Wintertime light is great for shooting just about any time during the day and in Florida it’s warm enough to actually enjoy the day too. ๐Ÿ™‚ It was slightly cool (relative, of course) but Michelle was a great sport especially after the temperature really dropped after dark. But it was fun to take advantage of the lights along with water after sunset.
My aim was to show Michelle’s beauty and fun-loving personality, and I think both shine through in the images. It was such an enjoyable shoot that I forgive Michelle for making me feel old, as I remember her best as a baby when I was a Senior in high school!

Happy Birthday Lenox!

Lenox is officially 2 years old today! How the years fly by! It’s amazing how much kids change from ages one to two. Barely walking a year ago, now he repeats everything you say, knows the alphabet, can spell his name and do 35 piece jigsaw puzzles. However, at his party on Saturday he still needed some help blowing out his candle despite his best efforts. ๐Ÿ™‚

But he certainly knew what to do with the cupcake and
gave an approving “mmmm, yum, yum” after every bite.
This was after he discovered he could see his reflection in my lens. Lovely.
He takes the present opening very seriously, making sure to remove every bit of paper
and taking time to peruse the new George book. He loves books!
Here his is in the “jumpy thing” rented for his party with his favorite gift, a toy leaf blower.
It goes every where with him!
Mommy and Lenox after a fun day.

Alayne and Matt

For those of you waiting for more Lenox and Lincoln pictures, I prefer not to edit images from my laptop, so I’m saving most of the editing for January, but I do need to post more pictures of them from the last few weeks soon!
Today I had a fun shoot with Alayne and Matt. They were gracious enough to get dressed up and let me play! Who knew downtown Jacksonville was had so many great picture locations? And the best part is – plenty of street parking, unlike all the places I usually go. And, you can’t beat nearly 80 degrees at the end of December!
I’ll have more images of them soon too, but here’s the last shot of the day. A lot of the images were glamorous or serious; I think it could be said that this one is the jump for joy that we were finally finished. ๐Ÿ™‚ Aren’t they cute?!
