Belle Chase Baby Photographer – Matthew

Posted on July 31, 2009

This little guy was 10 weeks old during our session, which can typically be a challenging age to photograph.  If you are looking to do the sleepy, curly, nude newborn shots, this is why its important to get them to me within the first 7-10 days.  After this time, babies tend to uncurl and its not always feasible to take the nude shots.  Babies are also less likely to sleep, which is ok.  Those wide-eyed shots are just as precious.  If they do fall asleep, then we can try some more traditional newborn poses.  I still don’t recommend clothing (unless its a special outfit) because its still overwhelming to their tiny bodies.

Matthew was the perfect model for this session at this age, though!  He wasn’t very forthcoming with the smiles, but man, was he cute!  He was very relaxed and just kind of hung out while I photographed him.  He did eventually fall asleep and then we were able to do a little more, but I love the awake shots just as much as the sleeping ones!  His big sisters clearly adore him, too!

For more examples of babies that aren’t quite “newborn” but still very young, you can check out Addison and Baylor.

New Wedding Product – Proof Magazine

Posted on July 21, 2009

I’m really excited to offer this new product that I know every one of my brides will want.  I know that its something I wish I had when I received a disk off images from my own wedding years ago.  It can be a bit overwhelming to open up that CD / DVD of 400+ images and see hundreds of tiny little thumbnails staring back at you.  If you have an older computer, it may take hours to sort through them to decide which ones to print.  This new proof book will not only make this task easier, but you can easily take your wedding photos with you wherever you go!

This 8.5×11, soft-cover proof book features thick, press-printed pages.  The cover is personalized with a photo from your wedding along with your names and date.   Each page has 12 proofs that are approximately 3″ each and has the file name printed under each one.  This makes an excellent reference and companion to your wedding CD.  The book will include all 400+ proofs that you receive on your CD.  This proof magazine can be added on to your package for $100.

Morgan City Family and Child Photographer – Gabriella

Posted on July 19, 2009

Here’s beautiful little one year old Gabriella with her mommy and daddy who obviously adore her!   We were lucky enough that the weather was a little cooler than normal and despite a few raindrops, we were able to complete their session about 1/2 hour before it started pouring!  I enjoyed working with you guys, Gabriella is a doll!
