Family Time in the Park (Moline Family Photographer)
Posted on July 19, 2011
We haven’t had many beautiful days this Summer, but lucky for Amy (who had to reschedule because of rain) we ended up with a gorgeous day for outdoor pictures! Her little boy was turning one and couldn’t have been happier the day of his session. Family photos are more than fun when babies are all smiles! And kudos to Dad for his smiles and being such a good sport. A lot of dads don’t like family pictures and he was all about recording memories for his little boy! My favorite picture from the session is of Mom and Dad together. They look beautiful and I love capturing images of just Mom and Dad since they seem to be forgotten after the wedding!

My new favorite thing these days is to see babies come into my studio that were here a year ago for newborn pictures. It’s so fun to watch them grow and see just how much they’ve changed in such a short time! The session I’m featuring today is from Marlena and her little boy. This time last year, she came to me with her new baby and dad’s childhood Tonka truck. While little man no longer fits inside the truck for a nap, we sat him in it just to see how big he’s gotten!
Almost a Week In! (Davenport family photographer)
Posted on June 25, 2011
Can you believe it’s been a week and I’ve only missed a post for one day?!
I’m very excited about this! Yesterday, I was so excited to be on top of my to-do list that I waltzed right out of my office and completely forgot to post my latest session! But, I’m back today and showcasing Michelle’s family. We met downtown for an outdoor, kids-only session. Since two of her children are older, we opted for an urban feel with brick and buildings instead of the park. This was my third time getting to photograph the little guy though…. look at those eyes and tell me he’s not adorable!

Okay. Let me tell you a little story. I had a little girl show up for a family session and insisted on showing her tongue in almost every single photo. After the session, Mom emailed me and asked if we had any photos without Baileigh’s tongue. Even though I told her yes, I was pretty sure I was gonna have to say no. Tongue or no tongue, Baileigh was a cutie pie. I couldn’t narrow these down and decided to show you a whole lot more than normal. Try to look at these without laughing at how cute she is!:

Look at me! I’m actually blogging about another session. Thanks to Nichole getting my head above water, I have time to showcase my clients! Since I’m such high volume, I can’t promise I’ll feature every session I photograph, but I’ll do what I can! Today I’m featuring Kim’s family. She came in with her hubby and their little girl and despite the heat that day, we finished with some cute images for me to play with. The little denim outfit is adorable, and let’s not forget about Mom’s fab color choices. I love the blue, green, coral combination. The look is cool, clean and simple without losing the fun of Summer! Way to go, Mom!
Spring booking….
Posted on February 24, 2011
Just a little FYI that March through July are now completely booked, I’m now scheduling for August 2011 and beyond. You’re more than welcome to schedule more than one session at a time, so if you know you’ll be wanting those milestone sessions feel free to schedule them all at once for babies first year, birthdays etc.. I know some of you are frustrated that I’m booking so far in advance and some of you have not been able to get in when you wanted….please keep in mind I’m a one girl show. If you came to me in the past when I had my downtown studio please keep in mind that I had a staff that helped me out a TON behind the scenes. In order to keep my prices as low as they are I’m unable to have a staff now which means I have to keep myself to a strict schedule in order to get your images back to you in a timely manner. I’ve also had a lot of questions about a cancellation list and because a true cancellation is rare (as in basically doesn’t happen) it would take me forever to go through a list of people interested in booking a session when the odds of being able to fill a spot so last minute are slim to none. That would be very time consuming and pretty much a shot in the dark for me so should I ever have an opening I will post it on facebook, first come first serve but again it’s usually very very last minute. Thank you all for understanding and I promise you it KILLS me whenever I have to say no!! And because a post isn’t fun without a picture how about a some of my kids from last fall. I’m FINALLY working on getting them ordered lol!
Today’s Featured Family (Quad City family photographer)
Posted on October 7, 2010
We’re going back here to summer but I wanted to show off this beautiful family. Sometimes if you’ve never hired a personal photographer before it’s hard to imagine what 30 different images will look like. Our sessions start for 3 people, 30 images on a cd. The more family members you add the more images you’ll be getting on a cd. This will vary family to family but for this family of five here is what their summer sesison looked like and all of the images they received on their cd!

This gorgeous family got rained out big time last week, I didn’t think it was going to ever stop raining that night but rescheduling paid off because it was the most perfect beautiful afternoon. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the images we got during their session. Sweet light, cute kids, great location…nothing makes a photographer happier!

Cousins! (Quad City Family Photographer)
Posted on September 5, 2010
Don’t forget to take advantage of the September half session special….book a session back to back with a friend and have your half session outside instead of in the studio! This cute bunch used their special with family and by having the sessions overlapping we did a couple of cousin shots! See lots more of them on the facebook fan page!
