The Fabulous Hogan Four

I love to do all black and white shoots so I was thrilled when Leslie said she wanted black and white Christmas photos of her four fabulous kids. Ranging from age 7 to 15, the Hogan family knocked it out of the park with genuine smiles and a lot of laughs during their appointment. Such a fun family that I hope to see lots more of in the future!

The Komenda Boys Get the Holiday Spirit!

If you are having trouble getting into the holiday spirit, just check out the gorgeous Komenda boys and our seasonal photo shoot. I've wanted to do a funny photo of two brothers goofing around with big, old fashioned Christmas lights for quite some time and Sam and Colin executed my vision perfectly!

Stylish Sisters

I've done so much fun work with Claire and Grace in the past that it was only natural that they would come back for a "sister shoot." Mom wanted a photograph of both girls to complete her new wall arrangement of individual portraits which I thought was a great idea. I enjoyed capturing the personalities of both girls at once - Claire has that blond, sweet, girl-next-door vibe while Grace has a more high glam, edgy look. However, when they joked and giggled together, there was no mistaking they were sisters!

Westport Road Never Looked So Pretty

Julie is a fabulous high school senior who came back for her second outdoor photo shoot last week. We wanted to capture both summer and fall looks for her senior portraits and we had already done some photos in the summer with cute summer dresses...let me refresh your memories, dear blog readers...

Now, onto the fall looks. I'm going to blow my cover here and admit that I watch Gossip Girl - doesn't this outfit look like something Serena would rock at a party in the East Village? So cute - I just loved the animal print top with the urban setting in Westport.

Another great thing about fall and winter photos is the texture you can incorporate into your photos with scarves, knits and jackets. Look how great Julie looks with her blue eyes, blond hair and a nubby, colorful scarf. Brilliant!

Custom Holiday Cards

Have you noticed that Jingle Bell Rock has already appeared in numerous TV commercials? I guess that means it's not too early to begin thinking about the upcoming holiday season!

If you have been into see me in 2009, I'm happy to create custom holiday cards for you. I have a zillion different gorgeous designs which you can find on my web site under the "Holiday Cards" button. If there is a design that you would like to see with your photos, just let me know and I will create a sample.

The press printed cards come in boxes of 25. The 4" x 5.5" press printed cards also include envelopes. The slim line cards come in boxes of 25 and the 4" x 8" slim line cards are printed on professional photo paper and include envelopes. The holiday note cards come in boxes of 25 and the 5" x 7" holiday note cards are printed on professional photo paper and include envelopes.

As an alternative, I also sell high resolution digital files of any images from your photo shoot if you like to make your own Christmas cards. If you like to insert a photo in your holiday cards, I offer two print sizes in bulk quantities with any photo from your 2009 photo shoot: 4x6 prints and 3.5x5 prints. These come in quantities of 50 and 100. Please let me know if I can assist you in any way with your holiday cards!

The Sprague Six

It's hard to believe that it was 6 months ago that I photographed Baby Jack for his newborn pictures! Time flies when the economy is spiraling out of control, I guess. Jack and his three gorgeous older siblings were back in front of the camera for some holiday photos last weekend. Courtney, the relaxed mama of this posse, also wanted a group shot for their Christmas card which I was happy to shoot. We also goofed around in the backyard for awhile, taking individual portraits and just being silly!
