Still Recapping 2012 | Northeast Ohio Family Photographer

I apologize now for the christmas in May post.  As many of you know, keeping up with the blog is on my priorities list, just not very high.  Keeping my turn around time in a good place and keeping up with my family fall much higher.  Also, as some of you know, we moved over a month ago, so packing and then settling back down took quite a bit of time, so the blog fell pretty low on that list of priorities.  But, I’m back!

And this is my recap of last November.  Christmas pictures and all:)

I’m usually dead in November.  So burnt out after a really busy fall, that I welcome a lull until after the holidays.  However, this year, a longer bit of warm weather and some little ones, kept my busy right up until Thanksgiving.  On top of getting holiday orders placed, it was quite a bit busier then normal.

I had mostly family photo sessions and one with an adorable 3 month old I’ve been photographing every 3 months since.  I also did a quick snap of some photos of my daughter at the local yogurt shop in Hudson.  Lulu’s Yogurt with a Twist.  Cute place.  Awesome yogurt.  With the weather warming up (it is warming up, right?), I highly suggest you take a trip there.  It’s just “Deeeeelicious” as my Isabella would say and her absolute favorite spot for a treat.

I also had a newborn session, but that’s saved for the next post.  You all know how much I love babies.  The adorable little ones require post of their own!

I tried to keep the list of pics short.  But not too short.

After you have a look, leave me a comment below.  I love reading what you all have to say.  And if you want to book a session, be sure to CONTACT ME. Spring sessions are all booked up and I’m booking the summer months now…and there isn’t a ton left!

I’ll be back very soon…I hope!

Tiny Miracles | Cleveland Newborn Photographer

Late last summer, I was supposed to photography Shelly and Justin.  Shelly was pregnant and the couple was eagerly awaiting their baby’s arrival.  After talking to Shelly, I was really excited to photograph them on the east side, possibly around Shaker Lakes, a place I visited a lot growing up.  I don’t get to the Heights too often these days, so I was really looking forward to it.  Shelly and I chatted a bit about the session and I knew I was just going to love working with them.

Fast forward to the week of their session…Shelly calls me to let me know that their little one arrived.  Very very early.  Riley was in the NICU, but the fighter that she is, she was doing well, but still had a couple months before she would be able to come home.

A couple months later, I was beyond thrilled to finally meet Shelly, Justin and Riley.  She was by far the tiniest little baby I have photographed, but she may also be the most feisty, lol.  Through 5 hours of shooting, I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Shelly and Justin.  And I found a great friend in Shelly as we designed their album for Riley, full of not only my images, but her images of Riley’s first months in the NICU as well.  It will forever be one of my favorite projects and I hope to work with them again soon.

Here are some of my favorite images of Riley and her parents.

Fall Senior Pictures | Northeast Ohio High School Senior Photography

Every once in a while, I get to change it up a little bit and photograph some older “kids”.  This October, I had two.

The first, was a local spot in Aurora I had never been. In the background, you can see the old Geauga Lake.  It was really a fun spot and holds a lot of memories for this Kent High School Senior and her family.  We also had an awesome old mini-carosel to work with when we met at her Grandmother’s house.  I love unique photo opps!

The second was at Squire’s Castle in Willoughby Hills.  This Kirtland Senior, did great and shows just how versatile the castle can be.  It’s definitely not just a place for girls, or couple or kids. The great architecture gave a diverse array of backdrops that evening.
