Senior Sweethearts

Posted in New Horizons

Ah, the days of youth, sweethearts and dances…

I had the honor of capturing a few pictures for these sweet seniors just before their Military Ball.

Dustin is a senior at Colonial High School and is currently in the U.S. Army National Guard.
Ashley is a senior at Boone High School and she is very active in the R.O.T.C. program.

They met while competing on their high school bowling teams. Don’t they make a cute couple?!

Sweetness!

Born on October 12th and weighing in at 7.5 lb.s (19.5 inches long), I could not believe how incredibly relaxed and aware this little fella was of his surroundings.

I was in awe of his laid back disposition.

I guess the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree though. Mommy actually CHOSE to give birth naturally. Yep… She is an amazing woman.

It was quite dear to witness how loved and doted upon this precious guy was by both of his parents. I believe he will bring them both much joy.

Introducing… Joshua Cole.

Aidan

Posted in Classic Lullabies

Awwwwww…

This little fella was so cuddly. I just wanted to keep holding him any chance I could.

Born at 6 lb.s 11 oz., little Aidan weighed all of 6 lb.s 6 oz. when I captured him at just 8 days new. One of Aidan’s Mommy’s friends presented her with a gift certificate for a newborn session as a gift during her baby shower. Yay!

(Now is where I plug that it is an AWESOME idea to gather some folks together and get a Blessed Little Family Photography Gift Certificate for that special friend of yours who may be expecting a baby soon. They make excellent gifts that baby will never outgrow and family can look back on and appreciate for years!)

Of course, our handsome little prince was so interested in trying to take in the abundance of his new surrounding that he had absolutely no interest in sleeping whatsoever. Hahaha… We waiting him out though and after a while I was successful in capturing some adorable pictures I believe his mommy and daddy will be thrilled with.

Oh, and might I add, daddy is a Marine.

Introducing Aidan…

Between the innocence of babyhood and the dignity of manhood, we find a delightful creature of a boy.

Conversing with Tink

Posted in Personal, The Age of Innocence

I discovered Pinterest this week and I am officially HOOKED!

There is an unimaginable amount of inspiration out there…. for everything. I wish I could stay up all night long to try to take more in. Simply adore it.

I came across a lovely pin originating from flickr and titled “Secret” by MistoAcrilico (you can view it HERE). I knew i just had to give a version of this a try with my 4 year old.

Not too terribly bad for a few quick shots at bedtime on the kitchen table in the living room with a sheer drape folded over 4 times and a 580EXII off camera, behind the drapes.

Added some slight photoshop magic and tada!

It may not be technically well done, but as a parent of the little boy in the capture… I love it. It is so very much where he is at right now. =)

Enjoy!
