We just had to share one more from the models who came in for our Christmas set.
This is little Cora and she is adorable in the little hooded red velvet coat from The Velveteen Rabbit in Churchland.
There are so few times that kids get to be dressed so beautifully anymore. All the pictures you see on facebook and the internet and magazines seem to all be cute candid play clothes. I have to admit, even though I love to see kids being kids one of my favorites things is when the children come in for pictures wearing something beautiful.
I still remember as a child myself, how happy I was when my mom was able to buy a special outfit for me. Way back then, it was seldom that she had the money to do that but she always made sure I had something really special for Christmas and Easter and my birthday. When my son came along, I did the same thing for him. So precious, such wonderful memories these images will be for your children as they have their special pictures made while in their special holiday outfits.

The holidays are almost here starting with Halloween, then it’ll be Thanksgiving and then the one every little child is excited to see arrive – Christmas.
The holiday picture set that we created every year for the children always takes a few months and lots of shopping to create.
This year Cathy has created an old English stoop complete with snow. The kids in their holiday attire or their winter coats will be adorable in this.
Always a favorite at the studio, people start calling in August to find out what the theme will be this year and they want to book a session early. Well – it’s time.

I am asked all the time what my favorite subject to photograph is – now that is a hard one because honestly I love them all. To be honest though, I would have to say that children hold a very dear place in my heart.
Child photography can be challenging, unpredictable and entertaining all in one breathe. It is rare that I don’t get a chance to giggle right along with the children in their sessions. And I love the looks on the mothers faces when they finally come back in to look at the images. They are always amazed and sometimes so am I.
I know today that there is a trend to do candid, highly saturated (for color) and tilted camera angles in nearly every type of photography that is out there but when I create images like these, I know that this is where my heart is.
This session was created from our “Victorian Afternoon” Theme set and we provide everything in it except the child. The cute little outfit, the bird and the cage, the kitten, and the seat. The children just come in ready to play and away we go.
I usually want one from every session on my own wall. This type of image reminds me of the innocence of childhood. Something that all too quickly passes into another phase of life. Hold on to this moment mom and dad…just hold on!
