Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

The Fawcett family

I have 10 minutes to say what I feel about these. Well, I am sad that the Most Wonderful Time of the Year is almost over for me. These are my faves so far for the season. I love the matching Reindeer Sweaters and the color scheme of grey! It really looks great with the green tree and red brick! Who would have guessed. The boys are growing so fast and I love that I can watch them grow through my lens. They are so sweet and full of energy.

Merry Christmas Kelly, Tim, Aiden and Alex!

Love, Michele

The Ward Family

OK! So Stop begging! It is 6am and I can't stop thinking about giving you a sneak peek! They are all so great! There are a lot to edit and enhance! This was such an awesome day. Great fun with the kids and loving the sunset. Not realizing though that November Sunsets are totally different than July Sunsets. They aren't as colorful, but still very serene and beautiful, and there is no sweating going on.

You can tell that it is all about the kids in these pictures! So much fun! They bring so much life into our lives.

Love you guys Kelly and Jason! I think you'll absolutely love these.

Love, Michele

The Leu Family

Taking pictures like these just give me butterflies in my belly! I love them, hoping the family does too. We had a very windy, cold day and setting up black sheets for back drops was quite hilarious! Thank goodness I took my little assistant Emily with me. She is so helpful!

This family is just beautiful and loved being in front of the camera. These are just a few to share. I am happy to say I can only spend a little time on the blog as it is the Holiday season and I have tons of work to do. I still have openings in December if anyone is interested. I'd love to go into the New Year with some shoots booked ahead as well. Now that I am shooting on a full time basis.

No longer a preschool teacher and now focusing on my life dream. Working from home, with my own schedule, being with my girls and loving life! Well, enough talk! Here is the Leu Family.

I hope you love these Nicole and Scott as much as I do.

Love,Michele

Expecting Asher

These are truly the tinniest Crocs in all creation.

Well, I had an awesome time taking these pictures of my sweet and dear friends. I have taken their wedding pictures, bridal portraits, engagement and now their pregnancy pictures and can't wait until I photograph Baby Asher! I know he will be so sweet and cute!

So, while at her baby shower, the lady that was hosting it had some really good pictures of her family and the photographer had a bible verse written on some of the pictures...something that I have thought about and something I would love to do. So I went out today, and looked at a lot of art that had inspiring verses that help us remember our Faith as Christians. So who says that the number 13 is bad?Hum? I Cor. 13:13 is the most popular thing going. Kirklands even has plaques and art with this verse on it. I've seen it in Khols, Penneys and even more stores. Silver bracelets and more just shouting to everyone! This is what it says...Faith, Hope and Love...but the greatest of these is Love. I Cor. 13 explains what love is exactly, I hope the above pictures portay just that.

I love you guys! You are so precious and special to me. Baby Asher is going to have a very love filled life.

Love, Michele

Happy Halloween

I hope your feeling well Brandy and Mitch! Congratulations on your precious little princess. Bella is so sweet. I loved coming and sharing in the celebration of this little life. Your probably on your way home now. Getting settled in and hopefully getting a little wrest before all the trick or treaters come tonight.

Bella was only 5lbs 13 oz. Too little to do the nudy pictures I like to do. With little ones like this we really have to watch their body temp. We will do more in a few weeks, especially for the Holidays, but I have to say, I absolutely love coming to the hospital and taking newborn pics! It is amazing what I am able to come up with in a hospital room with yellow lighting and ugly hospital beds and apparatuses.

Love, Michele

The Ramos Family

I love working with this family, and watching their little girl grow! They are expecting another beautiful little girl and am so excited to be able to share her arrival.

Brandy, you look so beautiful and radiant! You guys are so much fun to be with. Can't wait til the new little princess is here!

Love,

Michele

Tracy, Bo and the Girls

Well, it took me a while to finish these up, but they are awesome and I am so happy to share them with everyone!! Two toddlers and and big sister that is like a second mommy, whew, this was high energy photography! It took my oldest and myself to do our best to keep Audrey in check. She could not help herseolf from running all over this beach. You'd never think she would have so much energy to run with all that chunkiness. Ice cream was definitely the bribe here. With the coolest little creamery around the corner we had to gets some!

Tracy I had a great time! Thanks for being so patient with me.

Love,

Michele
