that I need to mention. Studio Bloom Photography will have a price increase February 1st. I’ve never had an increase although all of my costs have increased over the years so it’s something that I’ve been needing to do but haven’t. It won’t be a huge jump or anything:) And if you’re already booked I’ll honor the current prices for those sessions.

Also, if you are waiting on me for samples of cards, collages, or proofs I am working on them and should send you something in the next day or so. If you’ve emailed me and haven’t heard back please send me another one or check in with me because I’m still getting reports of emails that are not coming through.

That’s it for now…Thanks:):):)

We started our picture adventure for this session at a neighborhood entrance that has a huge rock/fountain structure and then went to their home and finished up.

And this session has me amused for a couple of reasons:
1) I didn’t realize there was rock climbing so close to where I live
2) I imagine that there is a big ole’ NO TRESPASSING sign in front of said rock structure that was erected this past week

This family went and scoped this location out and mentioned it to me. I remember seeing it in the past driving by but had never paid too close of attention to it. Sure, let’s do the pictures there. Well, I didn’t realize that the rock structure is like 3 stories high and that I’m sure we were a spectacle to the cars driving by. But it was a blast and I love when families are up for an adventure!

Hope you enjoy the sneak peek:)

by their house. They had me come and do pictures at their home because the husband likes to decorate for Christmas. So, I think sure, ok. Well, he REALLY decorates for Christmas and I can only imagine how spectacular it is at night. Their tree was humongous (my lens couldn’t even get all of it) and I’m pretty embarrassed to say that I haven’t even begun around here:( Hope you enjoy! Oh, and I have to mention that their son kept wanting me to hold him and as soon as I would pick him up he’d snuggle into my shoulder. Talk about melt your heart.

You may recognize this little girl from some past blog posts. Well, she is now a big sister to a baby brother. He wasn’t too much into sleeping but he didn’t fuss at all with the different poses we did. Hope you enjoy the peek:)

100% A&M University family

Beautiful girls on a beautiful day.

I was pretty excited to see this family. I hadn’t seen them since their little guy was a newborn. His eyes are still a bright blue and he’s as cute as ever. And I was pretty impressed by all the nicknames he’s racked up. I must have heard 10 during the session and I think you have to have quite a personality to have that many:)

Hope you enjoy the peek!

We, of course, had some weather issues on this day. We decided to wait and see and then decided to go ahead and do pictures. A little bit into the session their sweet daughter started being fussy. After a few minutes they realized she was warm and getting a fever. Poor thing. Here’s a few of what we got before that:)

Seriously….who could dispute that? Take a look:)

I’ve had to reschedule more shoots. But the good news with that is that I have more computer time. So, if you’re waiting on something from me I’m working on getting caught up:)

I was contacted by this little guy’s mom’s best friend. His mother had had some surprise life-threatening medical issues while she was pregnant and they had to deliver her baby boy early. He had to be in NICU for a while and she is still in the hospital. Her best friend knew about her desire to have newborn shots done and she was an amazing friend who coordinated to make it happen. She told me about how they had looked together at my website before any of this happened and she knew what his mother would love. His grandmother, father, and his mom’s best friend came to the shoot and we all worked together to create the photographic memories for her to have. As a mother I can’t imagine not being with my child during those first newborn weeks and I pray that these photos of her precious son will help her see what he was like while she was recovering.
Kim, you’re an amazing friend. I hope that she treasures these:)
And to his grandmother and father…you guys have strength beyond belief. Keep up the great work:)
I hope you enjoy these.

I’ve done this shot before, but it had a little more meaning this time with his mom and dad’s rings on his tiny toes
