At long last... The Sissons

The Sissons have been so wonderfully patient with me! I thought I'd have this peek up last week- but got a wee bit sick (ok- a lotta sick!) and just couldn't get them blogged as fast as I wanted. This family was so fun and fabulous to work with. It didn't hurt that they opted for an urban+beach session (the two types of sessions I most love!, and that they had a teen boy (my fave age to work with!) so I was definitely excited about their session. But, they were also a very close family (I couldn't believe a teen boy could enjoy being around his parents so much- give sme hope for my future in 10 years lol). I hope the wait was worth it and you love your sneak peeks! Your gallery will be ready tomorrow :)

Ms. Martinez... & family

Ms. Martinez definitely had the easiest "baby" to work with, which was a huge surprise (and relief) to me lol. I've never done a doggie session before but my wonderful friend Jeanette Chisolm of Off the Leash Photography had given me some tips in the past and I tried to do her proud! (incidentally- Jeantte comes down to visit me few times a year and I'd be happy to arrange a session with her if interested!). Xochitl (sol-chi) was beautiful but a bit shy... but I managed to coax her into a few pics with her baby. I hope you love these! (I just had to add really fast- the first is my absolute fave)

The Walkers...

The Walker's were a gorgeous family and were the first to treat me to a California Beach! It was a bit weird shooting at different angles to the sun than I am accustomed to, but it was definitely cool for me to have something other than white sand to work with! I loved all the rocks surrounding this spot, while Ms. G & Mr. B. loved the birds and tide-pools. It was definitely my most climatic end to a session ever- my camera and I were drenched by a big wave (we have itty bitty ones here in Pensacola lol) but we both managed to live lol. Thanks again everyone; enjoy your peek!

The Bartholomay's... plus a peek for Cindy :)

Phew... I'm getting there :) First off, I want to say thank you sooo much to Cindy for being a sweetheart and giving up her place in line. Since she was kind enough to move to the back of the line, I wanted to share a few pics from her session before I put up PJ's sneak peek :)

And, I wanted to apologize for my super short blog postings lately! I'm a bit (ok a week lol) behind right now due to numerous reasons... so I'm trying to keep these short and sweet so I can keep on working! So please don't take my lack of gushing as any indicator of how aweosme everyone was to work with!

PJ- Thanks for your patience... I hope you love your sneak peeks... your full gallery should be ready by tomorrow :)

The Witherby's... and cousins :)

The Witherby's heard about me at the very last minute, and I was so honored they wanted to do a session! It was a double session (hence the LONG post lol)... and these were a very energetic group of children :) I have to admit they got the best of me- I never did get the cousin shot we all wanted. So, in honor of the lost cousin shot, I'm including the one (yep- just ONE!) picture I got before the little ones got away ;) I hope you guys find it as cute as I do! Thanks again and I hope you love these! I'm almost done with both of your sessions and will send a link as soon as I'm done.

(next up is PJ and Robyn ;))
