{B} family

















We took these a little over a week ago, on one of the last good days before all of the snow hit. I'm dying over these little boys, I can't believe how fast they are growing up! You can see this family two years ago HERE, and Baby B as a newborn HERE. Seriously, kids just grow up so fast! Thanks for the fun, B family!

This was my last family session of the year! I'm pretty much caught up with editing, I don't know that I'll ever get it all posted, but I'm closing in on getting everyone's prints ordered and disks burned. I would say we're in the home stretch, and it feels good to be crossing things off the "list". I can't believe how fast this year has gone! It's been so much fun!

C H R I S T M A S {cards}

It's time to start thinking about Christmas cards!!!

I'm so excited to be offering custom Christmas cards to my clients this year! We can use any photos from your photo session this past year, or if you have a release of copyright from another photographer (or your own photo for that matter) I can also help you out!

I've worked really hard on getting these ready, and I'm so excited to show you the choices!

All of these are front and back 5x7 unless otherwise specified. I can make a few of these 5x7 folding cards, just let me know if that's what you want and I can show you what they would look like with additional pictures inside.







this is a 5x5 card.


The next three are all the same card, I'm showing it in three different colors to show that the possibilities are as vast as you can imagine. We can make the background contrast with the colors in the picture, or any color you would like.





This is a similar card, but with two images on front, a wide and a tall picture.




This cute striped pattern is designed by jones design company, the top image is not my image. The bottom one is. I'm waiting for the files to be sent to me for this one, but when I get them I'll post more options. It would look good in chocolate brown, green, blue, red... you get the idea.

I'm also offering the layout of my family christmas card from last year:
for the back of this one I would just fill it with one full image.

{details}

$45 for 25 cards and envelopes.
$60 for 50 cards and envelopes.
$80 for 75 cards and envelopes.

All cards are front and back 5x7 unless specified. They come on beautiful card stock, not just regular photo paper, these will wow you! Choose from 5 paper cover stocks – standard, art watercolor, art linen, art recycled, or pearl (add $6 per every 25 cards for upgraded paper such as pearl. Standard or Linen finish would be included in the price.) They come with white envelopes as well. If I have your images the cards can be printed and in your hands within a week.

I can change any of these designs to suit your tastes, colors, fonts, etc are easily changed.

Happy Christmas Card shopping!!

*All orders must be placed by Friday Dec 10th.

Loveless Clan




I'll admit that I may have had a near anxiety attack when my dear friend Abbie and her mom asked me to take extended family pictures with 17 grand kids...
But it went well, and we had a great time! Aren't they beautiful little people?? I love the clothing choices, fun and colorful, not matchy, but everyone looks well groomed and nicely dressed. Good job moms! There was just a minimal amount of adjusting and shuffling:
but all 17 of those kids were well behaved, super cooperative, and adorable!













Thank you so much, Loveless family! I'll consider my life a success if my posterity turn out half as well as yours! You've raised some good kids and grandchildren!

A special Thank You also to my wonderful friend Holly, who came along for moral support, and helped with holding a reflector (although she is highly over qualified for that job!) She did a great job dancing around and helping to attract the collective attention of young and old alike! And mostly for just being a fun friend. For us, taking pictures together was like a girls night out!
