Christmas Ornaments ... Decmeber 2012

The tree is up and lights are all aglow.  So, I thought I'd play around with my camera and a few of my favorite ornaments, all Disney themed, of course. 

I have so many more.  This'll do for now though.  ;)

Conner ... Newborn ... December 11, 2012

Conner was my first newborn session.  I'm doing his folks wedding in 2013 (I can't wait).  I'd forgotten how tiny newborns were.  He was so sweet I wanted to just squeeze him.  Thankfully I did not though as shortly after we got him undressed and ready for his closeup, he peed on their comforter.  He seemed pretty happy about it too. 

Taylor ... Senior Portraits ... September 7, 2012

I can't believe I forgot to post these!

This was a senior portrait session at Sandhill Berries/Green Dance Winery.  Fabulous girl, great location.  :)

Anderson ... Family Photos ... December 2, 2012

After several beautiful days in late November, early December I had my first holiday family session.  Instead of the weather cooperating for a third/fourth day in a row, it rained ... and rained ...

The Andersons were troopers though.  I got my lights set up in the pavilion, and we made it work!

Jenna & Bob ... Engagement ... October 13, 2012

A beautiful afternoon in Ohiopyle, PA, with my niece, her fiance, and their baby (and my Mom and nephew).  It started out me taking their engagement pictures.  Ended up walking around sulking through the Buckwheat Festival as my camera died.  :(  Here are the pictures I got before my camera gave up the ghost.

**Never fear ... As of this posting, I have a new camera in hand.  :)
