Oh, what a shoot. Haylee has a background in modeling, and it is not hard to see why. She is gorgeous. I am super pleased with our Senior Session, and I hope you are, too.

{Maternity} Virginia Lee Jackson

I LOVE this girl! When I found out several months ago that my sister was expecting, I immediately started secretly plotting where/when we were going to do her Maternity Session. I am also in love with open fields (as you have probably figured out by now) so when I found this one in particular, Ii was thrilled for it to be a perfect backdrop to my gorgeous sister. I cannot wait to see our little nephew! Please enjoy!

my personal favorite:

Seniors: Abbie Lasyone

Abbie is a sweetheart. It is evident the moment you meet her. I would ask her to do crazy things, and she'd just smile and do it. We could not have asked for a more beautiful day than the day we shot Abbie's Senior Photos. We found this amazing grove of trees way out in the country where the light was just pouring in. It was incredible.

Winner!

And we have a winner! But, before I tell you, I want to tell Apple & Ivy THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!!! Their beautifully crafted ties, headbands, clips, & children's clothing are Stunning, not to mention Top Quality. Seriously. Go Look at their site RIGHT NOW. I mean it. Leave, and then come back so you can see if you won. I'll wait.

You back? I really wanted to keep these ties for my sons & husband and the headband for myself. But, I didn't, so one of YOU won it! Which leads me to my next point. Thank YOU so much for entering! I had fun! :o) And hopefully you did, too. And if so, I might just have more fun giveaways in the future.

So, with out further ado...which, did you know was the correct spelling? I always thought it was "adieu," but I was wrong. Adieu means good-bye in French. Ado means fuss or "time-wasting bother over trivial details"...

The winner of this amazing Apple & Ivy Package iiiiiissssssssss:

Matthew Donald!

Congratulations! Please email me your address so that I can ship it out right away!

Thank you everyone again, especially the wonderful Rebecca at Apple & Ivy.

GIVEAWAY!!!

Hey Guys! I am SO excited to present to you this AMAZING giveaway! My wonderful friend Rebecca at Apple & Ivy has very generously given to a lucky blog follower one of her best selling three piece sets: a matching brown & blue striped 100% silk Man's necktie, 100% silk little boy's necktie, and girl's flower headband! The little boy's necktie is in a size small, made for boys ages newborn through about 2 years old. She is one of my FAVORITE places to shop for myself, my husband, and both of my boys. Heck, if I had a little girl, I'd shop for her here too! She is listed in one of my previous entries as one of my favorite places to go for unique items to personalize a photo shoot. In addition, I am throwing in a Mini-Portrait Session (so you document yourself/family with the new accessories!) which is a 30 minute Portrait Session for up to 5 people that comes with 15 fully edited proof images in a private (password protected) web gallery. It does not include travel.
