Beyond the Session with Rebecca

Looking....

A few days a ago a girl contacted me about doing some editing work.  I was out of town, and now I am unable to find the contact form you sent to me!!  I am very interested in at least speaking to you about what you offer.  If you see this, please contact me again!!  :))

Thanks!!

She makes me want....

to have another BABY!!!  She is soooo precious and perfect!  I just love newborns...  the smell, the soft skin, their squishiness...  they are one of God's most precious gifts.  And her Big Sister is just so sweet and adorable.

Congratulations on your NEW perfect addition!

 

 

 

John Deer Cutie!

This little guy should be in a John Deer commercial!  He just looks so darn cute in his boots!

Baby planners are so much fun!!  I get to watch them grow up throughout the year!  :))

I am so excited to have my new studio!  I know all of you will find it to be very refreshing and FUN!  I cannot wait to post pictures.  It will have state of the art equipment, galleries gallor, family and kid friendly, hip for seniors and much more!  :))  The date in should be April 1!!!

The up coming year:

I have so many things in store.  A new and fresh look to go along with the studio.  A new site, new marketing material, new new new!!!  I have worked very hard the past few weeks with design work to develop new looks for cards, collages and wall collections!!  And... the work hasn't ended.  I have a list a mile long of things to accomplish and learn to do over the next month.  I am looking very forward to sharing later!

I'm sorry to hold out on posting, but I hope you will all find that it is worth the wait!  :)))

Happy New Year to Everyone!

This is honestly the first chance I have had in a long time to post!  As all of you know, things are just way to crazy during the holiday months, and with a new baby.... time is VERY precious!  I honestly just yesterday took Edde Sue's 6 month pictures!  Of course I will post them later!  She is already trained!  ha ha!  There are so many fun sessions I didn't get to post about, but I will be doing many up-dates to the site, so most of those sessions will be added to the site!  Plus, there will be a few changes, so keep posted!  Usually I spend January getting ready for the New Year!

Again, it amazes me how much I grow each year!  My clients are just incredible, and I thank God everyday for allowing me to be able capture your memories!  

One thing I am very excited about for the New Year is the NEW STUDIO!  It will be so fun!  I know all of you will love it!  If you want a session with the new studio, call soon.  I am booking now for April and May!

Just in case anyone is interested, or knows someone who is interested...  My house is on the MARKET!!! It is a 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath, huge lot, can see Moye School from my house, includes big playground, laundry shoot, wood floors, 3 car garage, and full finished basement.   Just let me know!!

Here are a few pics of the girls that I used on our Christmas card!  So Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!  I can't wait to see what the year brings!!

Just a few of my favorites!

I am soooo bad about keeping up with my blog!

The first two families are really close friends of mine and Scott, so those are always fun to do!! Brad and Leslie...  I LOVE this first shot!!  Just so you know!!

The next brother and sister...OMG!!!...  I haven't laughed that hard during a session EVER!!  I am in LOVE with these two kids!  I actually did a switch off with the mom... (yes.. I know her.  I don't just let people take my kids!)  But she took mine, and I took hers.  It was great because I was able to play with them and not have the parents all stressed how they were acting!  That's exactly how I work best and get those shots everyone loves...  by letting me do my thing!!  It was GREAT!!  I told Mom I would GLADLY take their pics anytime!!  And yes...  they came home with grass stains!!  ooooopppps!!!

Not mention the funniest story with these two...  This Mom had to reschedule, not once, not twice, but three times all because of RAIN!!!  I hope it was worth the wait!!

The last...  she is just so darn cute!!  Her big brown eyes are just adorable!!

The strongest 6 mo. old!!

I am absolutely amazed by this 6 month old!  I took her newborn pics...  and she was such a little peanut!  Now...  she is a BRUTE!!  She can sit up right from her belly!  And if that isn't enough, she is getting up on all fours...  meaning her hands and feet!!  She is trying to crawl already!  And did I say 6 month old... actually, she wasn't even 6 months yet at the time of her session!!  And isn't she a cutie!!

and meet my baby's little boyfriend!  Isn't he too cute!!

Little Heart Breakers!

These two brothers are the prettiest boys!  And can I say... the best behaved as well!  I was so impressed.  And NEVER have I had two boys beg me to keep taking pictures!  It was hilarious!  They are just really sweet natured.  I really enjoyed them!  I will photograph them any day!  

And this senior girl had her mom call me.  It was so last minute, but I promised we would get it done.  We were racing against the rain, and then the sun came out!!  She has the most gorgeous red hair and BIG blue eyes!  Just beautiful!!  :))

I just had to brag on these great kids!  Back to proofing!!!  :))

Busy Busy Bee....

Yes... that is me!!  So much going on, it's hard to find the time to get caught up on my blog.  This season has been a whirl wind... and most interesting to say the least.  

 

Here are a couple sessions to stay updated!!  

And...  upon request an updated picture of Miss Edde Sue at the bottom.

 Is

Isn't she just adorable!!  :))

Just Dropping in....

I really do not mean to keep everyone hanging.  I am still here.... just running like crazy!  

There has been so much going on.  I have finally gotten the Mac about 90% full conversion from my old computer.  It just takes time.  It does seem to be taking me longer to proof since I do have to get use to the "new" way of doing things!  But all is GOOD!!!

So.... it seems I have hit the senior market!  I am having so much fun with all of them!  They are keeping me on my toes...  thats for sure!  :))  I'm getting calls daily!  It's wonderful!  You all know how I like to stay young!  Like I mentioned before, Prudence and I have come up with a new pricing structure for our seniors.  Its called "Flip Out!"  We are offering so many new products and the seniors are "Flipping Out!" Over it all!  It has been a hit so far.  If you are a senior booked already and have not received your new pricing guide, please contact me or Prudence.

Another change that has been made is the way you will receive your printed proofs.  Most of you in the past have received your proofs in a very nice album.  But for here on, the new proofing is a Portrait Box.  It is gorgeous!!  I love it, and so will you!!  Prudence has mine for display, and very soon I will post a picture of it and change up my site to represent the box instead of the album...  so keep checking for the up-date!

As for sessions....  I am trying very hard to work everyone in as you call.  And even all my days during the week are pretty much full.  However, I am officially booking into the last part of November (with only a couple slots). After that we move into December and January.  

Here is a little snap shot of what the past week has looked like!!  :))  

For those of you I didn't post, I will be working on your proofs very soon!!  :))  I'm not even finished with a couple of these!!  :)))  But I am trying!  Thank you all for staying so patient as I work through the computer issues and of course with my new little angel!!  Which I have been lectured that I have not posted a new pic of her.  I will very soon!!
