Down of the Farm { take 2 }

I met with Monte and Kelly back in the summer to capture some promotional images for their thriving businesses (Gardenstone, Cascading Creations and the Spokane Grapevine) and I was thrilled when Kelly contacted me about another session, this time to include their three youngest children. Time flies when I am photographing this couple - despite the frigid conditions (no really, we had a mandatory hot chocolate break) the kids were troupers and we all had fun ... and hopefully the next time we have a session, there will be no ice cold rain and I will be bringing lemonade instead;). As always, K&M, it was great to work with you...here is your sneak peek...enjoy!

Wrapping up 2009 (no pun intended!)

Shame on me- it appears I took all of December off from blogging! We enjoyed a busy, energetic month filled with family, friends, and contemplation & celebration. Just what December is for. Now it is on to 2010! I am really excited about some upcoming photography shoots I have scheduled, as well as some planned expansions for the studio (did I say studio...why, yes, I did!) throughout 2010...it is already shaping up to be a great year & I feel blessed! Still, I would be sad not to post at least a few pictures from some of the fun photos I was able to squeeze in despite being on 'vacation' in the month of December...you know, some people are just so great it is hard to say no! Enjoy!!!

First up, the Piper Family. Back in October I had the chance to photograph sweet Ashlynn so I was thrilled when they came back for more, this time with the entire family in tow! While we had been hoping for some snow to fall, we had to settle for temps in the single digits- and still these kids were smiling- can you believe it?

By the way, this year Emily started a fabulous new etsy business called Tiny Belles Boutique that has really taken off! If you know any little princesses, you should really check her out! Stillpoint Photography is thrilled to be her official photographer & I look forward to some joint packages and promotions to share throughout the year!!!

Next up are two ladies dear to my heart...this is not the first time I have photographed them, and I am confidant it will not be the last, either. Did you ever see a sweeter mother-daughter pair? So when they asked for a photo shoot in time for Christmas, how could I not oblige?

And finally, I was happy to be able to capture Miss Avary's first Christmas for her mom, dad and big brother Logan. The last time I took pictures, Miss Avary was still chilling in her Mommy's tummy but now she has arrived and what a gift she is!

A grandparent photo shoot for a Christmas gift? I was excited to be a part of such a wonderful plan! However, with all of the rain we have been having, I was a little nervous our plans might be thwarted. Not to worry! After drab skies all week, the clouds parted long enough to spend a perfect afternoon capturing some beautiful moments - watching Sam and Lucy's eyes light up each time their grandparents spoke to them- it is clear they adore them...and I am pretty certain the feeling is mutual! Merry Christmas to Grandma and Grandpa from Sam and Lucy - here is a sneak peek with many more to come! Enjoy!

Fall Specials

I am so excited about the fall specials I am offering. The current trend is to spend less and to make what you do spend count. This is a good shift in pace, and I am all for supporting it! I think you will find the mini sessions provide just that. Enough time to play and have fun in front of the camera for a wide array of pictures and memories, a disk of all high resolution, edited images to print as many and as much of as you want for personal use, Christmas cards and gifts, and a quality, hand-retouched 8x10 printed on archival quality paper with archival quality inks from a professional lab to proudly display in your home. If this sounds like quality to you, then give me a call, because available slots are limited!
