Marah

I just LOVE shooting newborns and here is the little sweetie of one of my dearest friends. She was only one week old and just a tiny little thing. I ran out and got a few new props/blankets and a LOVESAC (www.lovesac.com) before the shoot so I had something fresh to work with. I had a hard time ending the shoot I was having so much fun playing! Her big brother Tye was a trooper too as the session pushed right through dinnertime.....here's a peek:

Little miss Lucy

This little sweetie came into the studio on valentines day and we played and laughed and danced all morning! She is such a tough little one wanting to be tossed upside down by daddy and tackle piles of blankets. I love love love her sweet little curls too.....oh to have a girl! :)

Marcus, Joe & Alex

Here's 3 of my little nephews and I love when they come up to play in my studio and with my boys. I have so much fun with them and they make me giggle! I can't believe how big Marcus, the oldest is getting, during our shoot he asked "Aunt Colleen, what made you want to be a photographer?" Such deep questions for one little guy!!!! Here they are!

Vegas Baby!!!

So I am in Vegas at a photography convention called WPPI(wedding and portrait photographers international) and I am SO excited about what I am learning. I can't wait to get back home and get to work on some of the things I am learning as well as start implementing changes in my business and the way I shoot. I am so excited for my brides and grooms this year as they will be the first to experience these new concepts and ways of thinking and for my portrait customers as well. I will be changing my website, logo and business information and brochures over the next few months so be looking for the CHANGE! I'm so excited........

Happy Valentines Day!

Jack

Here's my little 4-year-old! I got him outside for a tiny shoot yesterday and here's what I came up with. Somedays I can't believe I have a little man who's four...

Alivia

Miss Alivia was one month old the day of her photo shoot and was such a doll. I headed down to Lincoln where she was visiting at Grandma's house. I really love to capture generations and all three of these women were adorable! Thank you for letting me photograph another "event" in your lives (I photographed her mommy and daddy's wedding a few years ago)

Carmen

Little Carmen is the youngest of 4 and was so sweet during her photo shoot. She was just 11 days old and slept like a little angel. Her older siblings just adore her and were so sweet with her. I love watching little ones interact. And I also got to play around with my new little knitted sack and hat!

Claire

Here's a few shots of little Claire, she was at an adorable age for these shots as she could sit up but wasn't crawling yet! I abosolutley LOVE six month olds and I've forgotten how fun they can be to shoot!!!!
