One of my favorite parts of being
a photographer is the connection made with clients during the whole process
resulting in better friendships & even new friends! I had such a great time photographing lil’
Gavin for his newborn pics months ago that his mommy not only referred me to
some of her friends but also purchased a gift certificate. I can’t emphasize enough just how precious
her gift was to another mother. As a mother,
I am very frugal on budgets, sales, coupons, the whole nine; and FORGET buying
or doing anything for “myself”; one of the main reasons, I love when my husband
gifts me with massage or pedi gift certificates or even camera equipment (but
that’s an asideJ).
Life goes by so quickly; a reminder to collect your memories not things. Therefore, capturing a moment in time in a well-done photograph, in my opinion, priceless. So, I was very excited when Jess
contacted me to use her gift certificate for a mommy&son session with her
lil’ gem, Aiden.
Lil’ Aiden & I became fast
friends right from the get-go as he toddled across the parking lot to greet me
with arms out and an “up”. As we sherpa’d
props around the park, Aiden rarely left my hip. <3 It made me feel so
special as my toddler would never go to anyone but me, for this sweet boy to
want to hang with me! As my shutter
clicked away, Jess & I also chatted away learning more about one another’s military
connection among many common experiences.
Again, just had the best time photographing these two and getting to
hang out with them for the morning. Best
part of my job!
Here’s a pic I snapped towards the
end of our session as lovable Aiden was squeezing my legs and asking for me to
pick him up. You can see my blurry leg
and shoe just in the bottom of frame but this picture just makes me SMILE from ear
to ear…
Enjoy a preview of some of my
favorite images I selected from your gallery.
Thanks again Jess for entrusting me with your lil’ man and keepsaking
these moments for you!!!
