I photographed this sweet little girl between snow storms.  I can’t even remember which now, they all seem to be running together these days!  We were hoping she would cooperate and sleep for some photos since she was an older infant.  I generally try to photograph newborns when they are less than two weeks old and still in that sleepy phase, but sometimes life happens, and that’s just not possible.  I’d photographed her big brother a couple  years back so Mom really hoped to get some sleepy shots to match her favorites from his session.  Luckily, with patience, we waited her out and she slumbered for us…

Quick vacation announcement

January 14, 2010

Happy New Year by the way!  Seems I have been rather neglectful of my blog through the holidays, but life has continued to be busy at Barefoot Photography, and of course, clients’ needs must come first!

I am heading out on a southern caribbean cruise and away from all phones, computers or any devices that allow others to reach me.  That will pretty much leave me with my family, other gleeful vacationers, sunshine, warmth, and tropical drinks- sounds like just what I need to be stuck with this time of year ;)

Barefoot Photography will reopen on January 28 and sessions do remain available for February!  Be sure to leave me a message or an email if you are interested in a winter or spring session and I’ll get you on the schedule when I return!

But before I go, I wanted to share a little guy I met last week.  He is just adorable!

What big eyes you have.

Check out the Baby Madison website that recently launched by CLICKING HERE!  My work is featured on the intro pictures of the site.  Thanks again to our little models!

And since I had some requests way back when I teased about the prints hanging in the shop, I will go ahead and share them here (though seriously they are so much better in person!)

I love the size and the portraits that were selected. The shop looks fantastic. The wallpaper makes it look too busy, but the photos still manage to stand out.

Very cool! The display looks great!

To be thankful

December 14, 2009

This little guy was born before Thanksgiving this year- giving his family one more precious gift to be thankful for indeed.

You may remember his big brother from last fall… still as charming and adorable!

I’ve gone CRAZY!

December 1, 2009

Yes, it’s that time of year, when we all feel a little harried and crazier than usual.  For portrait photographers, this time of year is especially hectic as we try our best to get everything done and back in time to deliver before the holidays.

For me, personally, this is the crazy week when I hope to get many packages out the door, finish getting all the last minute 2009 orders processed, the last few sessions promised for 2009 proofed, and maybe even start thinking about MY OWN holiday cards?  If I can accomplish all that, I might even have a day or two to do my own Christmas shopping before the boys get out on winter break.  Crazy, huh?!

So since I am already feeling a little crazy, I figured why not have a CRAZY sale?  Here’s your last chance to book a 2010 session at 2009 pricing.  You don’t need to know an exact date, we’ll merely pencil your session into a 2010 time frame.  And to make things even easier on you, you can take care of it online by CLICKING THIS LINK. Easy, peasy.  But hurry, the sale ends this Friday!   Unless I go completely crazy and they take me away before then…

After a reschedule due to rain, we got the perfect fall morning for a photo session.  Lucky for us, the rain hadn’t washed away the last of the leaves and that yellow provided just the perfect compliment to their red outfits!

Of course, he was mostly interested in playing with sticks (it’s a universal kid thing- and especially for a boy) and she was quite interested in taste testing the fallen foliage!  Perfect!  Kids being kids…

Oh Connie these are just GORGEOUS!!! I love the fall colors and I have to say, Mom certainly has amazing style. What beautiful portraits you’ve showcased here – as you said – kids being kids. You’ve captured a piece of their childhood and preserved it for Mom and Dad, well done!

I  met this family on a Sunday morning after I knew the colors had actually peaked.  Lucky for us, we found a patch here or there with some beautiful color still that provided the perfect compliment to these gorgeous girls!  Of course, I photographed them with mom and dad too and choosing favorites was so difficult.  I will bet you can see by looking at these why it would be hard to pick just a few favorites to share?!

Thanks for having me capture your family on your trip down from Philadelphia! It was a pleasure!

Oh wow. These are so good! I love that last sibling shot! I bet it shows their true personalities. I also love that it doesn’t have to have both sisters smiling. I love it just as it is. I love that baby girl’s age with the more serious look. I bet she was just so focused on your camera and was like “wow…”!
