SANTA BABY!

This past weekend we had a blast visiting with Santa... Well actually we waited close to 3 hours and spent about 2 min with Santa! Well it was definitely worth it! Riley did something that she had never done before.

The entire time that she was in Santa's lap she stuck out her tongue! We were laughing so hard. Well as if the Santa Camera boys weren't intimidated enough by my Cannon Mark II they had to deal with capturing a great photo of Riley. Well they succeeded with the tongue hanging out an all.

It is the moments like these when I am giggling away that the most magical family photo opportunities present themselves. Most may not have liked the images of her with the tongue hanging out but for me it was priceless. This is the real moment that will make Bill and I chuckle years later. Click away when the laughter roars!

Happy Holidays,
Caroline

RED Door!

Talk about a beautiful family! I had so much fun photographing the Smith Family! Brenna and John have two of the most amazing children! I must add that Brenna has amazing taste. Her children were dressed so cute! The adventure of every family shoot is so much fun! Thanks so much for allowing me to get creative! The images are definitely worth it!

Also, Brenna has expressed an interest in learning more about capturing wonderful family images. She is about the 10th person that has approached me in the last month for some photographic direction! So folks... It is official! I will be launching a day long seminar for Mothers who would like to capture the amazing moments that unfold daily! Stay tuned for Seminar Details. The seminar will be held Late Jan or Feb 2007. What a wonderful holiday gift this could be for someone. The cost of the seminar is $225 with a limited number of seats. The Seminar details will be released on Thursday. Please contact the studio for additional information at 800.478.2895.

Happy Holidays,

Diva Bride

Today while visiting in Birmingham with my photographer friend Arden Ward we conqured a bridal shoot like no other. Sara, the bride really rocked it! Sara wed in October in Texas and wanted to do bridal shoots upon her return. I love, love, love this approach because brides tend to feel more relaxed since there is less intimidation about getting the dress dirty and the general anxiety that occures on the day of the wedding is no longer there. What fun we had. Arden had a couple of fun accessories handy! What a smashing complement for a funky shoot. If you are interested in doing something like this after your wedding or even before...contact the studio for additional information. The rate for the creative fee is $350.

Thanks Sara for the rockin' shoots.

Cheers

Album Pages

Here are some wonderful pages from the Celebration album of Ed and Inge. The couple wed in Italy last May. I was fortunate to be comissioned to capture and in August celebrated with family and friends at Golden Ocala. The floral designs were by Dan Hathcock of Floral Events. The event was coordinated by Melissa of Masterpiece weddings.

The bride and groom wrote the most beautiful saying to put in their album on the first and last page. Enjoy!
