My galleries seem to be down

I have heard from several of you that you cannot get in to see your photographs. I am having trouble with my website, and so that is the problem.

I am contacting them to see if they can get it fixed. Please be patient, and I will update you when I know something.

TTFN, Martha

J, almost two

This was this little guys first photo session. He was a little scared at first, but I got a few smiles at the end. Look at his beautiful big brown eyes!

His sister came at the end of the session and I had to snap a few of her too! She is so cute!

I am trying to get caught up in the next few days.....

How can you look at this face and not smile? This is Miss J and she was very active, but I did manage to catch a few good ones!

Her oldest Brother, Mr J.... The middle child....Mr J...

All three.... And this is how a wall display would look with 11x14 prints, with two inch white mats and a wooden frame.....I am now selling frames and mats, so if you think that this is something that you might want, just ask me!

Siblings.....

How cute are these two? They were both so photogenic! I love sessions where the kids are old enough to listen to and follow directions!

I will be using these images to make them some custom Christmas cards. If you need Custom Christmas cards, give me a call!

Baby on a pumpkin, take two....

I had another newborn coming so I thought I would give the pumpkin another try. It worked a little better this time. She slept for a few minutes, so we got her diaper off, and I got a few shots.

I also turned the pumpkin so that the stem showed. I am not sure which way I like it better.

She was an alert newborn and I got quite a few with good eye contact. Her big sister came along to the shoot, so that we could get some special photos of them together.


I love baby yawns.....


I love my baby scale, too! I looked for one like this for a long time!

This is the big sister, Miss M. They also have two boys, but mama left them with grandma.
Your announcements are in your proofing gallery, just let me know her correct statistics!

A few from last week....

I am crazy busy, and I haven't had too much time for blogging. I am behind in editing, too, so be patient and your photos will be up ASAP!

These two siblings came for a photo for their mama. She said it has been forever since they had a photo taken together.

We took most of them together, but I did take a few of them separate too. Here is your sneak peek, and your proofs should be up by Sunday evening.
This is one of my favorites....

This little guy is Mr M......I used to baby sit for him when he was a baby. He has grown so much, but he is still as cute! Here are a few for your peek........

TTFN! Martha

Mr G has the greatest eyes!

I last saw this little guy at his six month session. He has sure grown a lot! He is now two and he talks! His eyes are just as pretty as they used to be though!

Here are a couple of my favorite from his six month session:

And here he is today! Isn't he the cutest? He was a busy guy, though, so we only got a few!

Your proofs will be ready in a couple of days!

Miss A, three years old

This pretty girl is Miss A. Her mama brought her for her three year old portraits, and I got a lot of keepers from her session! She has such pretty smiley eyes!

I like this one, because it shows off her favorite pink sparkly shoes!

I think that she had a lot of fun 'modeling' for me! I hope you like these photographs!

My favorite triplets were back for another session. This composite is from their four year old session, last year....

Now they are five and they go to Kindergarten! They are the best kids. They are very well behaved, and they giggle a lot! This year mom and dad got in the photos. This is one of my favorites:


Maybe we should title this one 'Monkey in the middle'!

This is Miss L.This is Miss M.
And Mr A.This shows the real side of A! He is onery!I am so happy that you choose me for your triplets portraits! I enjoy them so much!

Baby on a pumpkin, first try

I advertised that I needed a newborn to try a pose on a giant pumpkin. This little guy's mama called me and offered to bring him. The first time we tried, he was not too happy, so we worked on typical newborn poses, and then at the end of the session we tried again. This was as good as it got!

Here are a few of the typical poses that we did.... I love sleepy smiles, even if they are faint...


Your proofs and announcements are in your gallery, let me know if you need any changes made!

Miss E

I can't believe how grown up Miss E has become in the past year! I last saw her for her one year pictures, and now she is two. Her eyes are still as amazing as they were, though! They are such a pretty shade of blue.

Here is my favorite from her one year session. I entered it in a contest, and I won 2nd prize.

Here are a few from her Two year session.Those texters start early don't they??Your proofs should be ready soon!

The P family....

This family has grown by one since I saw them last year! They welcomed Baby I a few weeks ago and they brought her and their two dogs for Christmas photos.

Here is a peek at your session. I hope to have the rest ready in the next few days. I am running a little behind.....sorry!

Here is Baby I:

A nice little family

This family came last week for a portrait session. The children were so well behaved, and they listened to directions so well! It is always a joy to photograph children that follow directions!

Here is a peek at your session! I hope that you like them. I hope to get the proofs up in a day or two, if I survive the root canal!

This is Ian, he is 10.

Miss Isabel, 7.
This little one is Alex, he is three months. Such a little sweetie.This little angel is in memory of their daughter S, who only lived for 5 weeks.
Here is the whole crew. It is hard to get all of the kids to look and smile!TTFN! Martha

I have a toothache

I have been laid up this week with a toothache. I had a tooth drilled on last week and the dentist put a temporary filling in it and it has been hurting ever since. Saturday it was so bad that I took about 10 Extra strength Tylenol and a pain med for my Migraine and I went to bed. I haven't had a complete night of sleep since Saturday. I can't eat, I can't sleep and more importantly I can't work. It hurts to sit upright for long periods. My jaw has a lump on the outside. I have been through 60 tylenol since saturday........ =(

I had the Bargain Hunter schedule me to be off tomorrow afternoon, and the dentist is going to fit me in. I am expecting a root canal. I have had one before, about 11 years ago. It was the worst thing that I have ever been through. I would rather give birth without pain meds (been there, done that) than to get another one!

I am terribly behind in proofing, so if you are waiting for proofs, I am sorry, and I will get back to work ASAP.

TTFN. Martha

Miss A

I can't believe that little Miss A is 18 months old. It seems like I just took her newborn photos! She is usually a tough one to get a smile out of, but I got a few winners this time!

And here are a few from her latest session. I hope you like them!

TTFN! Martha
