Abbey is a very creative and expressive little girl. During our shoot, I got quite a few angry tiger faces. (Actually, I think those were Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer faces.) In any cases, I started to post one, but wanted to show off her pretty smiles instead.
At first, Benjamin was more interested in making sure his mom stayed close by. However, after he realized I was just there to have fun, he started to really enjoy himself and have fun with us.
I have a lot of clients tell me, “There are just too many! How am I going to pick?” Although I REALLY, REALLY try to only give families 30 images to choose from, there are many times where it’s impossible.
Ashton and Ainsley are great examples. I could have been finished with the Sneak Peek AND online gallery yesterday, but I decided to take a little extra time and include all of the images from their session. It’s not completely my fault… if these kids weren’t so incredibly cute, I wouldn’t have this problem.
[…] these cuties look familiar?!?! They should! Not only have I photographed them before, their photos are on my website and Facebook Fan Page. I’ve told their mom this a hundred […]
I’ll write lots more later, but I’ve gotta keep this post short. I’m in the middle of Go Diego Go, several orders and a house full of moving boxes. No, that is NOT a type-o… I said MOVING BOXES.
Long story short: We found out on Friday we will be moving to Georgia with a new job Matthew accepted. I have tons of things I want to share about it, but for now, I just wanted to update everyone.
If you had a session last weekend, your Sneak Peeks and gallery will be ready soon. I have a special session tonight (Rayna and our friends Aaron & Hayley) and four more this weekend. Stay tuned…
Meanwhile, the main reason for this post: If you’d like to take advantage of my super-quick turn around process for getting your prints and enlargements ordered, please have your order to me by Tuesday, November 18th. Otherwise, all orders will be placed the following week when we arrive in Georgia.
YEAH for us sad for Arizona. I know you have great friends there who will miss you as much as we have missed you here. I am glad though that you will be moving back!!! YIPPEEE
I am going to be mean and say that I am SUPER EXCITED! I will be praying for you though during this I know will be stressful time trying to move so fast. If you need anything once you get here, please let us know. However, I am so excited about having you home and having you all to myself for all my family pictures to come.
well, i for one, am not super excited. we’re going to miss you guys. i’m pretty sad that natalie and rayna won’t get to be baby friends! i know i know…it’s a wonderful opportunity for matthew’s career and being close to family and friends is priceless. sniff sniff.

I can’t even begin to tell you how much we are going to miss you guys. I am so happy for the great oppurtunity for you all, I wish you only the best of course. But the selfish part of me wants you to stay here!!! It makes me so sad to think that Hope and Ross won’t grow up together:( I am truly thankful for the wonderful and lifelong frienship we have found. We will definitely come and visit, and please keep in touch and let us know if you need anything before you leave. sniff, sniff:(

You already know how stoked i am to have you back! Congrats to matthew!

I just feel so blessed that our pathes crossed and am sooo glad that I met you in time to photograph my wedding. You did an incredible job & I can’t wait to see the full gallery. Good luck with packing. You are a truly talented individual Christy!
I really don’t know what else to say. I guess I should mention the fact that Taylor is a senior and was somewhat on a time crunch for these photographs. Four days after these images were taken, her incredibly beautiful hair was all cut off and donated to Locks of Love. If she decides to pursue something other than dancing in the future, my vote is modeling!
Jackson and Brady were not like most children. (Mine included!) They actually loved having their photos taken. Jackson turned out to be a wonderful assistant. I let him help me take a few pictures and he was hooked! He kept wanting to take pictures of his parents together. It was very sweet. So sweet, in fact, I was tempted to steal him and take him home with me.
NOTE TO SELF:
After photographing a wedding, work really hard the days following to get the Sneak Peeks loaded on the blog. This will make bride happy JUST IN CASE she is on her honeymoon in the Caribbean anxiously checking the blog each day for wedding images.
Kim- Enjoy the images and the last few days of your honeymoon! Thanks for allowing me to share in your special, wonderful and beautiful day!
Thank You Christy!!! I cant wait to see the rest. The sneak peeks are beautiful. And yes, we are on our honeymoon checking, as I was so excited to see them. The day went by so fast, wish we could do it all over again. So glad that we have a very talented photographer to capture the moments for us. OK, back to the beach….

Kim-
You look BEAUTIFUL and very happy! Hope it was the day you always dreamed of.
You’ve got to love a family who is willing to lay in (wet) grass just for a picture. You’ve also got to love Emily and Ryan who showered me in hugs after our shoot. Maybe it’s just me, but I can see their sweetness shining through in all of their images.
