{cam's first photo shoot}

First I want to keep you updated on the goings on of my business. I'm working on a new brand! I can't remember if I announced that already but now I know I have. I should be done and able to present it to you all by the end of next month! I'm so excited! Other than that I really don't have too much free time between school and my other job. I'll be graduating in early May, though, so I'll have more free time in the summer, I expect. I can't wait to see where that leads me! I hope you're all having a wonderful March, as I am! :)

Cameron Porter, born February 10, 2011, got his first photo shoot with me done last week! He was very cooperative at first but throughout the session he realized he doesn't like cameras very much and didn't want to cooperate at all. We still got plenty of good ones out of the little guy. Here are some of my favorites! :)

{kraemer wedding}

So you all know I was able to shoot a wedding on the 12th of February. It was beautiful and I can't help but smile as I edited the photos. However, I'm now finished with the process (it was a long one!) and it's time for me to share the photos.

Candice and Austin tied the knot at the Carriage Museum in Weirsdale, Florida. It was beautiful and even though she said she wouldn't, Candice did shed a few tears. I'm so happy for the couple who actually just found out they're expecting! She's due in September so I may be seeing more of them soon! :)

Anyhow, here's what you've been waiting for. I hope you all are having a wonderful start to 2011 because I certainly am. ♥

{valentine's day}

I simply wanted to come here in the few free minutes I've got today to post a photo from Saturday's wedding. Candice and Austin Kraemer tied the knot at the Carriage Museum in Weirsdale, FL. It was a beautiful wedding and I'm honored to have been there to remember it.

On that note, here is one of my favorite photos of the bride and groom! :)

{christina's maternity}

I love doing maternity sessions with the father and an older child; it's so beautiful to see the whole family so excited to grow! I just got to do that this weekend with Christina and her family as they prepare for their little boy, due Feb. 10th.

Haley is excited to be a big sister; she's always giving Cameron kisses. And, of course, David is excited to be a father to his first son as well. The whole family is ready for the arrival and they were all glowing on Saturday. Christina did a wonderful job, trying out the things I asked of her without complaint.

Congratulations to the happy family, I can't wait to meet the little angel! Here are a couple of your photos, I hope you like them! :)

{valentine's session}

It's definitely time for an update. A lot has gone on so far this year for me, I've gotten some new equipment and I finished making my camera bag, I've set up some important bookings over the next month and I got to do a themed photo session for some friends' babies last weekend.

This was fun, the babies are so cute in their special outfits! I wanted to go for something simple but adorable for the babies since someone finally had a little girl. So Twyla and Cameron were my models and they did a marvelous job with it, so cute.

School is going well and I'm working two jobs again so I'll be quite busy this year, which excites me. I wish I had more to say but I don't want to get blabby, so I'll end here with some photos of the kids. I hope the start of the new year has been as good to all of you as it has to me!
