Emily…2015 Medina High School Senior
…it always amazes me how time flies! As days can drag on and you may wish one to be over with already your almost blindsided by the reality of it all. With a blink of an eye looking back time goes by ever too quickly. Take Emily for instant. I can remember her mom’s baby shower and how she was technically in labor that day…and when she was brought home from the hospital…so small…and when she FINALLY could say my name [well actually she said Wicky] but it just feels like it was yesterday. I have my own kids but I see the process daily…micro daily as that matter lol…

Shaker Heights Newborn…
I’m always so grateful for the people who have had faith in me and my work, and when clients call me and say I photographed so and so and just instantly fell in love with your images… This has been an amazing journey thanks to all my wonderful clients and all who have supported this adventure with me. It’s been a dream so I thank you. Meet Baby “D”…we was such a dream…pretty much slept through the entire session which is a plus when you have to move this little ones so often…completely content…here are a few of my favorites from his session…

2015 Medina High School Seniors…Twins
As a twin myself I was so excited to get the call for twin senior girls! I honestly couldn’t wait to meet them! The one thing I wished my parents did was get pictures of my sister and I together when we went to get our senior pictures done! The bond between a twin compared to anything else is so special! Wouldn’t replace for the world. Here are a few of my favorites from their session…

A Summer Family…
I just love when I get emails and phones calls that start out “I saw your pictures on Facebook…you did so and so’s” and they want to book a session…sigh…besides returning-customers, referrals are the best kind…and when they know a specific location they want…I take a deep breath…patiently waiting to hear their location choice…THE BEACH….I can almost forget to exhale because I am too busy gasping…I LOVE the beach, wish I lived on a beach… So basically I was excited from the day it was booked until the day of the session and also knew I was going to take pictures of this little sweet adorable chunk….EEK…if you can only…

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…

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…

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…

The Gasparro Family ~ Medina Photographer ~ Medina Family Photography
One part of my job that I absolutely love is capturing moments to treasure forever…especially moments I personally can connect with. When I have family ask for a photo session I get all giddy inside and look forward to it like it was my own. There is no better person to describe “family” as there is Megan…my cousin…I love her to pieces…every year I have had to opportunity to capture those growing moments with her son Trey, but now that her family has grown I had the opportunity privilege to capture her entire family. Things didn’t go very well as planned. First it was finding boots to match {not my fault…
