My mom has been wanting a new family portrait for SOOOOOOOOOO long now. My sister and her husband live out of the area and we're all so busy that it's been really hard to plan. But, this week my sister came to town and we finally made it happen. We went to the Boise Depot and I set up my camera with a tripod and infrared remote. Luckily, I'm proficient in Photoshop and was able to do some layer masking of two photos to get a portrait of everyone looking at the camera, lol! And the result ...
Now, I also had my family portraits taken by a good friend a couple weekends ago and I have the chance to repay the courtesy for her this weekend! Once again, it's a good thing I'm good at swapping heads because I used 3 different photos to create our family portrait. I am THRILLED with the result and my oh so super fabulous 30x40 gallery wrap canvas arrived yesterday (which I will take photos of next week). Enjoy and have a great weekend!
This is the third session I've had with this little fella! I'm sure some of you will remember him when he was just an itty bitty baby laying on the red blanket ...
He was so cute back then and now, 7 months later, he's even cuter! Look at his big brown eyes ... (everyone say it ..."aaahhhhh")
Hope you enjoyed this sneak peek!! The next You're A STAR! Contest will be revealed on Monday!
Do you all remember our You're A STAR! Contest back in April? Well, here is our winner now 6 months older and just as cute as can be!

Mom and Dad already got one sneak peek but I just love this one so much I have to share it.
And because my mom raised me with everything having to be fair and even (lol, hi mom) here is another sneak peek of little sister who is just a total doll!!!!
Hope you all enjoyed this special little sneak peek! I promise to be a better blogger next week :)
I'm sorry if I'm slower than normal on my response times right now. As most of my clients know photography is my second job, right behind being a mommy. Due to incompatability with my children and the daycare they were attending I have taken them out of daycare which has taken away some of my work time. I've been adjusting this week and again I apologize if I've been slow to respond or caused any inconveniences. I'm hoping to work things out a little more smoothly next week. I am also looking for a nanny to come to my home and watch the kids 1 or 2 days a week for about 6-7 hours a day. If any of you wonderful blog readers know of someone looking for this sort of opportunity I would love to hear from you! Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
Two more cuties to show off today!! These twins are just so cute and they were lots of fun to walk around the depot with. Oh, aren't they just so cute?!?! Enjoy!
Oh, I'm in love with this next photo. It's not very often that my kids actually let me photograph them much anymore. But, today was the first day we put my daughter's hair in piggy tails and she wanted her pictures taken. Out came the camera and soon big brother wanted in on the shoot too :) Much to my delight they were in a lovey mood and I was able to capture this beautiful moment. You can just see how much Gabe loves Alison in this photo ... oh, it just melts my heart!!!
Now I can't decide if I want to order this as a gallery wrap canvas in color or black and white. I love both so much! So, if any one has an opinion I would LOVE to hear it! Black and white or color?? Leave your suggestion in the comments below or email me!
Two handsome little fellas tonight! This is the second time I've photographed these boys also and you may recognize one of them as a contestant in the last You're A STAR! photo contest. These guys are just so cute and sweet and so much fun! Here's the sneak peek ... Enjoy!!!!
