Snow

 

Just some pretty shots of snow from a few weeks ago...

 

The R Family

Over Thanksgiving, not only did I get to enjoy time with family, but I shot photos for family as well. I'm always happy to take photos of people that I know and love, and the "other" Connecticut Reeds are no exception. We headed to Talleyrand Park, in Bellefonte, which is a lovely area for photos - so many options! And, as you can see, E practiced her spins, H chased some ducks and Mom and Dad might have had a bit of fun, too. :)

Love Daddy and Daughter/Son shots!

Fun on the train!

Smiles!

Handsome Mr. H.

Lovely ladies!

Love. :)

Yay, ducks! :)

Fourth of July

No, I haven't fallen off of the face of the earth, promise. Life has been a bit chaotic, so unfortunately I haven't been taking as many photos lately as I'd like... Hopefully that will change soon! I did get the camera out for the fireworks last night, hope you enjoy!

A few montages:

Merry Christmas!

There's nothing quite the same as a busy, crowded house, full of good smells and Christmas sights this time of year.  Coming home to Pennsylvania for Christmas is always a mix of crazy schedules, cold weather and running from house to house trying to squeeze in a visit to everyone. But there are always some of the same traditions; the things that ground me this time of year. There's always a fire in the fire place at Mom and Dad's house. Gram always has a big group of us together for Christmas eve, and family pictures are a requirement before any gift opening is allowed to happen! Grandma always comes to Mom and Dad's house on Christmas morning. There are always lots of goodies to eat at my in-laws.  Every Christmas, amongst the hustle and bustle, I have to take a few minutes out and remind myself to appreciate that somethings never change and to accept the things that do change each year. I love my large (and continually growing!) family, love that they're close enough that we can see everyone each Christmas.

A few things that never change: Mom always has angel ornaments on her tree,

and a bird or two for good luck. :)

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. (Luke 2:10-11)

Merry Christmas!

The Wright Family ~ Gainesville Family Photographer

Last Sunday I had the fun of meeting up with the Wright family in downtown Alachua for their Holiday Session.  We originally planned for Saturday morning, but baby Kayden wasn't feeling well and it was sooo cold on Saturday morning! We rescheduled for Sunday afternoon for warmer weather and a little extra sleep for the munchkin and it definitely paid off.  Little Miss Morgan was a bit shy, but loved the snow flake props and then had fun playing with the tree in the old Theatre Garden.  And how can you not love an adorable little girl in her Christmas dress and matching bow?  

Holiday Sessions!

I am that person that sends out Christmas cards the day after Christmas. So in hopes of my getting in gear and getting MY cards done early this year, I'm offering holiday sessions to all of you! 

These short sessions are a great way to get family photos for those holiday cards! Possible locations are Micanopy, near Newberry, and Kanapaha Botanical Gardens. Each session will last thirty minutes and you will receive 10 high resolution images on CD. As always, prints are also available!
