A Quaint Engagement Session – The Cleveland Art Museum
It was an amazing engagement session. I feel at home at the Cleveland Art Museum. The architect in the atrium itself screams charm. Veronica’s mom was even able to bring their fur babies later in the session! So cute!

I couldn’t wait to share this wedding only because of the happiness they rub off to everyone! Eeks…theirs smiles all day long. Even weeks after their wedding I sat in my chair smiling back at those smiles while editing their images…makes my job even more enjoyable 🙂

Grown up…
…it is amazing how fast time goes by…thinking back twenty years ago when I moved into my house and neighborhood it was so quiet with just a few families with kids…then fast forward 3 – 4 years and boom…kids everywhere…and then 5-10 years later they play everywhere and with everyone…neighbors have come and gone and some I haven’t seen since they have moved but one family I was able to keep in touch with after they moved away and even had the opportunity to take one of their son’s senior pictures…live many states away… Meet Jacob…he flew all the way here to Ohio from Texas to visit with his childhood…

Pregnancy and Radiant…in the same sentence?
I was never blessed with that “glow” many pregnant women get while expecting…me, well I blew up like a balloon with bad skin, terrible hair, and crabbiness like there was no other…I honestly did not enjoy my pregnancy like I should have…I lOVED the fact a baby was growing inside me, and the ability to feel him or her move was amazing and truly a gift, but boy…every thing else that comes with it…yuck…nope…not for me….BUT… …then there is Christina…or as her hubs calls her…the little “Babes” who absolutely wore pregnancy well…she was flipping ADORABLE…perfect hair, perfect skin, and the perfect little belly. And I get to capture the little…

Precious Little Preston…
…I just adore this precious face…Meet Preston…my cousin’s baby girl’s baby boy! I watched his mama when she was just a little thing and can see so much of her in him…and one thing is for certain…this little guy has so many cooing over him. Taking his pictures was like going down memory lane…and I can honestly say he was the “easiest” little tyke I’ve had so far…he was game for anything ha ha. Here are a few of my favorites from his newborn session.

A Happy Photographer…
Nothing makes me more happy than when a family member calls me up and wants a photo session! And not just anyone! Jaime! She may be my cousin but we are honestly more like sisters…love her to pieces! She is always there for me and I for her…family…can’t get better than that…and when I get the opportunity to take some pictures…ooh…I get all giddy inside…especially when it comes to this little guy! He makes me work hard! LOL…but this time something happened…what I don’t know…maybe because we expected less and got more…or the fact he is finally getting used to the big black camera in his face ha ha! This…

I Hope Winter is Finally Past…
…but now is the time to share some of my winter sessions. There is nothing better than the contrast with snow and everything else in this world…and when you can get snowflakes in the mix…wow…it makes a magical picture. I have the wonderful opportunity to photograph this adorable new family for their wedding this summer and was ecstatic when she mentioned she wanted a winter engagement session! YAY! And let me tell you…as cold as it was…it was just as fun! Here are my favorites.

Missing Friendships…
My daughter made such wonderful friends with neighbors across the street and they are such a wonderful family…I would be able to see their adorable faces on a daily basis and I can honestly say I miss them. They moved a few years back and come back into town to visit family and their friends…and I love witnessing the excitement once these girls get together again…how I miss their giggles 🙂 I was lucky enough to photograph the family and boy how can one year be such a difference to the older one…sigh…watching her on a daily basis I don’t see the difference but only seeing her once a year…wow…how…

The “ho-hums” of January…
January brings mixed emotions for me…I am sad the kids are back at school and excited all at the same time…even sad when my busy season is now over and silently happy that I have a month to breathe…but love the craziness of what my busy season brings…It is so hard to find inspiration in January because of the dreary days…I try to get the kids outside to keep me shooting when I don’t have a photo shoot. But one thing this week has brought was boredom into the house! The kids have had 4 extra days off due to snow days and today…a water ban for our city….ugh…they are…

Happy 2014!!!
New Year’s Eve is often seen as a time of regrowth…the chance to start all over…or improve what needs improved, but the older I’ve become the cliché’s of regular resolutions for the new year are no longer important to me. So I sit here on the first day of 2014 listening to Despicable Me 2 in the background so happy we had the majority of our children here to enjoy the New Year with. Like I’ve said I am not the type of person to make New Year’s resolutions…since it’s typically the “kiss of death” for any success. While I try to practice the art of everyday living at my…

It Can’t Get Better Than This…
…there is nothing better than doing your job and then doing your job for family! I had the opportunity several times to photograph my niece Sydney…she was also the original face for Victoria Campbell Photography years ago and I just love having the privilege of capturing her every year and watch her grown into such a beautiful young woman. This year she is a high school senior…even though she is considered “new family” to me since meeting the hubs she nonetheless is family like they have been part of my entire life. We broke her senior session down into two sessions to take advantage of the seasons…spring and summer…the spring…

How Quickly a Year Goes….
I had the pleasure to document every step of Matteo’s first year…and now that he will be turning one I have decided to dedicate this post to him…his dark luscious locks are so darn cute and that so stinkin cute face of his just makes you stare at him in “aw”…and no wonder he’s so flipping adorable…just check out his parents…Gorgeous! I have a cake smash session coming up this week so I wanted to share his first year now before I post some of his last session from me {well I hope it’s not the last} but for the “Baby’s First Year” it is! Here are my favorites from…

Changing One’s Perspective Can Be Make a Difference…
I feel photography is art…and love having almost every single photograph “off-entered”. But I also love changing my perspective. Photographing kids can be a difficult task to begin with but just changing one’s perspective can help give the emotion in the image…I love every form of photography…and almost every form of art, but when it comes to picture and the ones that grab my attention and love are those of a unique and different perspective. When its a single subject I will definitely make them off-centered…to let the subject draw you in…if the photograph was taken from a different or unique perspective I love having them upfront and centered. Almost…
