Oh Baby!!

Last night I had the enormous pleasure of photographing the beautiful Snehal! Snehal is expecting baby #2, a girl, in mid August, but has a pretty good feeling she'll go early, so we made sure to get this session in at least three weeks before her due date. I should note that her son is confident the baby is coming "tomorrow morning".

Snehal requested artistic images that are inspired by the beauty of the scenery as well as some more traditional maternity/family shots. I think we captured that vision quite well! Though, as you can see, she could make any scenery beautiful. She is stunning!

Thank you so much for allowing me to photograph your gorgeous belly and your charismatic, adorable, and warm family. It was such a pleasure. I hope you enjoy your sneak peek! Your completed slideshow will be emailed to you soon!

Welcome Baby Brody!

Today I was in Plymouth, MI, photographing a new baby boy, Brody. Brody, along with his brother and sister, welcomed me into their home and were wonderful hosts! Even Woody and Jesse came out to play for a while :)

Newborns are so, so sweet and I LOVE photographing them. Enjoy every minute of this time with him...as you know, it is so fleeting. Thank you so much for having me out today and I hope you enjoy your sneak peek. Your completed slideshow will be ready soon!

Jessica is One!!!

You may remember Jessica. I've photographed her in the belly, right after birth, at 6 months old, and now at her first birthday. How can you not love these blue eyes?

Jessica and her sister, Lauren, came to the Toledo area to have their portraits taken individually and together. They did such a great job! Even got a hug from big sister.

Thanks so much for your continued support and loyalty. I look forward to watching these girls grow both behind, and in front of my lens.

Enjoy your preview! You complete slideshow will be ready very soon.

My Contest Winner!

Back in May, I set up a booth at our local summer festival just to spread to word about Aunt Spray Photography. In lieu of simply handing out literature, I decided to hold a give-a-way. The named pulled out of the box received a free, full session and a cd with full printing rights...a $390 value.

Our lucky winner was Jenna. Jenna and I met up at the Botanical Gardens and she was so generous to share her prize with her two crazy cute nephews, her very good friend and her friend's family. This was such a fun shoot! Not only did I get to photograph kids, I was able to photograph FOUR GENERATIONS of beautiful women! If I look even half as good as Dorothy does when I'm 98, I will consider myself beyond lucky.

Jenna, I hope you enjoy your sneak peek. I will be working on your images for the next week or so. When I finish, I will email you the link to your private, online gallery. Thank you so much for stopping by the booth and for letting me photograph you, your nephews and your friends.

Family Night!

My aunt and uncle are visiting from Nashville for a few weeks with their family. We all met up at my grandparent's house for some casual portraits of the kids. The kids were great, especially considering there were 5 of them...all under 10! My aunt's sister also came for some portraits of her daughter with her cousins and a mother-daughter portrait. The weather was great...clear and low 70's. Much better than the hot humid nightmare it's been recently.

Here are just a few of my favs....the rest will be added to the gallery in about a week. I hope you enjoy these!! And happy 4th to everyone!
