The life of a photographer's child!!!

I get a lot of parents talking about how lucky my kids are to have a mother as a photographer. Well it's not all that its cracked up to be, my kids HATE the camera, and it shows in their faces like this picture of my son....

Mom get out my face....


or this one.....

Mom can't you see I'm in the middle of an important part in this game...


I just got out of school, why can't you give me a break already......lol


Why, do you continue doing this to me....


I am ignoring you lady, i don't have time for this....


So, this is the life of a photographer's child/ren, as you can tell my children are not as cooperative as many people would think. It's actually easier dealing with other people's children, I might have to hire another child photographer to take pictures of my kids, I might get a smile or two....lol

NEW WEBSITE!!!

Be looking out for my new site coming in a couple of weeks!! I think its all me nothing to flashy and crazy. I wanted a site that showed off my work and the wonderful kids I have worked with, without the distractions from the site itself. When people see my site I want them to say, WOW her work is fantastic and those are some beautiful children, NOT.....WOW her site is awesome who built it, and lose site of what is important, the time and talent the photographer takes when it comes to capturing each of those beautiful children.

So be looking for it to be simple yet modern and contemporary.

Camera shy.....not this cute model!!!!

Ms K what can I say about this outgoing 7yr, she has a personality that can light up a room. This is my first model of 2007 and she came to the shoot ready to work hard, so I think Ms K is my good luck charm and the rest of 2007 will be full of wonderful child models like herself....



A New Years Wedding!!!

Nothing like a cute flower girl to start the year off, this adorable baby girl was the flower girl in her parents wedding, they were renewing their vows after 9 years...




This is the children of the bride and groom, the bride's brother is the one in the black suit.

CONGRATS Mrs T. and family!!!

What's new for 2007!!!

Be on the look out for contest and prize giveaways throughout the year. We are also working on creating new portrait wall collections for our contemporary customers who enjoy beautiful wall portraiture of their children. We will also customized our wall collections to fit your families needs!!!

Also Our World Contemporary Children's Photography will be working with a children's boutique and I will soon be looking for child models to advertise for the store. We are also working on getting a fashion show together to launch the opening of the store. Continue to watch this board for latest information about model searches and the launch of the new store.

New services this year.....
Yes after pondering and pondering I have decided to expand my business and cater to the wedding market, BUT on a small scale. I will be offering photography services for bridals and small intimate weddings (less than 100 people).

Modeling Portfolios for Kids/Adults....
Please be aware that modeling portfolio rates range from person to person, it depends on what is needed by your agent. For those parents interested in getting your children into modeling, please submit a snapshot of your child to the agent before spending thousands on a portfolio. Its a waste of money if your child is turned away after spending money on a portfolio. So PLEASE parents, get your children signed first before you pay a photographer for a portfolio.

Last Session of 2006

My last session of 2006 was so wonderful, I actually worked with a Ms C back in June and her mom called me to take more pictures of her beautiful daughter and precious nephew. This lil girl is so animated and funny and I enjoyed working with her once again and look forward to working with her and her cousin for years to come.


Her cousin Baby S was too cute......



And here are the cousins together.....


and finally the mothers with their children, I thought these pictures were just beautiful....
