The Website

http://www.auntspray.com/ We are artists! And what better way to communicate about the fabulous world of design and photography today than a blog? We will attempt to keep a casual dialogue about our current design/photography projects and anything we come across that is new, shiny and just plain awesome. Our company name is taken from the book La Cart: The Secret Lives of Grocery Shoppers (by Hillary Carlip, Barbara Green), where it is mentioned that a person actually wrote and misspelled this on their grocery list. Anyone stumbling in via RSS feeds etc...Welcome!

Beautiful Day for a Beautiful Family

Yesterday I took a drive to Ann Arbor, Mi, to one of my favorite spots....the Arboretum. I met my cousin, Alex, and her family there for a family session. This family has more smarts, character, and beauty than can be expressed with words. So I will leave it to the pictures to tell the rest of the story.

It was so nice to meet/see all of you. Thank you for the opportunity to photograph your family!! I hope you enjoy your sneak peek. The rest of your images will be sent to you shortly.

Lily Bee

You may remember a couple of weeks back when I blogged a maternity session with a painted belly? Well, that was baby Lily Bee. Lily came into the world on May 3, 2010 just as perfect as could be. Lily's big sister's nickname is Bug so now mom and dad have a Bug and a Bee. How perfect :)

I wanted to try out a new Dr. Seuss theme that has been etched in my mind for a while now so thank you to Julie at http://www.etsy.com/shop/weestringsandthings for making the Cat in the Hat knitted accessories. Check her out, she's the best!



I think they came out pretty good!

Such a beauty...


Sisters....


Peaceful moments with mom....



I hope you enjoyed your sneak peek! I will be sending your private slideshow over soon with the rest of your images. Enjoy that little Bee. She is a cutie!!

Blue-Eyed Beauty

Today I photographed a 6-month-old princess named Liz. "Lizzie" and her family live on an incredible property that backs up to a wooded trail...how perfect!! Lizzie's mommy has been very patient with me as we rescheduled twice...once for weather and once for a sick baby (mine). I was so excited to finally get there today and help the family capture Lizzie's 6-month milestone.

Lizzie was so well-behaved and sweet. It was an absolute joy to photograph her today. Below are just a couple of images from our session. Mom and dad....many more images are headed your way soon. Thank you so much for the opportunity to photograph your beautiful family. I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!
