I know for the schools in the area your yearbook photos are required to be taken at a studio chosen by the school. The photos that you actually want to hang on your wall and your heart do not.
Meet my newest rep…. 2008 graduate Ilyssa. She is as beautiful on the inside as she is outside and has a bright future ahead of her.
How is it possible that each session that I shoot is more fulfilling than the last? Conclusion: I have the best clients. I don’t blow smoke people…I really like what I am doing that much. Official nerd here….and proud of it.
The family you are about to see is my first family of my series of blog contest winners.
Justin ,12 - I was completely amazed by his vocabulary, dry sense of humor, creativity, and best of all the genuine love he shows for his family. Such a great big brother and even though he is facing a few personal challenges this guy is going to move mountains.
Cody, 5 - This free little spirit was a total champ for the whole session. Loves his big brother and brought the perfect amount of silliness to the table.
To top it off this is what I came home to tonight. It makes me all happy on the inside……
“Thanks for making yesterday so much fun! My boys really enjoyed the whole experience which is a big deal for us. This morning Cody asked when we were going to see you again! We are all very excited to see our pictures and know that they are going to be fabulous…not just because my kids are so handsome, but also because you are so talented.”
Awe..thanks mama. It was a total pleasure all the way around and you know everyone is having a good time when the little ones go until we have squeezed every ounce of light out the sky. I had to hold back posting most of your session. It was hard to pick and can’t wait to get you the rest!
25 unique comments from friends and family will get you a 5×7 on me.
Enjoy!
I am grateful to be showcased a local maternity boutique filled with adorable clothes for both the pregnant mama to be as well as the spunky little side kicks already running around. Twinkle Twinkle’s website is currently getting a face lift but can be found here.
I am passing this fun promotion on to all of you. Spread the word.
Your due date can be anytime just make sure you book before September 15, 2008 to take advantage of this fancy offer….
I have one session space left in August!
Sunday August 17th
or
Monday August 18th.
I schedule a limited amount of sessions per month to maintain quality and sanity. Once I am booked I am booked. I can not stress enough if you are expecting book as soon as you know that you want my services. I work around your due date and newborn photo session dates are never set in stone as you can imagine and should take place in the first 10 days after birth.
[As much as I despise discussing the holidays in August]
This is something you should begin planning for now. Not only because you still have your golden tan of summer but also because I book a limited number of sessions per month. Unfortunately there is no guarantee that your desired date will be available calling a week or even three weeks in advance.
All holiday sessions must take place before November 15 and all Christmas card orders must be completed by December 1st. If you know that you would like photos taken in September, October, or November book your session now.
Current Special running until August 19, 2008 found here.
…….and just because I can’t get enough of this little fat man.

Many of you emailed stating that you missed the initial post. Remember to bookmark the blog so you can stay up to date on all the goodies being tossed around this place. I even added a nifty little drop down to help make it easier. It’s at the bottom of every post on the left hand side. Sign up for my newsletter at the very bottom of the blog.
As always I will leave you with a sweet visual of a different sort. Don’t let the [all in good fun] title fool you…it is valid for all readers. One catch - You must mention the ad when inquiring.
If you are planning a holiday session this is a sweet deal to get in on. Holiday sessions must take place before Nov. 15th and orders must be completed by Dec. 1st to ensure delivery.
Oh my goodness the emails poured in yesterday and I am reading through all of these wondering how I am ever going to choose. Thank you for taking such an interest in sending in such heartfelt entries, funny stories, and fun family photos. I will be contacting the winners in the next 48 hours and thanks again to everyone. You are all awesome!
In honor of my photo obsession I present my amiga’s newest bambino. Finally her baby girl after 3 boys.

I remember my senior year of high school being so much fun. The last thing I wanted to do was go to a studio for photos and put my chin down, tilt my head to the left and stare blankly into the blinding light. To top it off it was most likely shot by a “no expirience needed” button pusher. Oh, the memories.
These days us crazy photographers are taking these ultra cool kids and their identity out into the real world and leaving the old school - [not so cool] photos in the year book and putting real images of your sons and daughters on your walls. Fancy that….images that you love.
This is my super beautifully cool senior rep for Murrieta. I am looking for a couple more for the Temecula Valley area and a few in my original stomping ground Orange County. Email me if you are interested becoming a rep for a boring photo or to schedule your session.
Oh - and there is only 4 days left to enter in my current contest found HERE! Don’t be boring….you know you want to play.
