The pleasures of photographing a Newborn!

Christian was such a sweet baby boy today. He is 2 weeks and is the second son of my friend, Amber. Little man is very strong. Every time I tried to pose him he would stick his head straight up and look around; he even lifted up on his elbows. Its no lie! Christian is a strong little guy for a mere 2 weeks in the world. I stepped into a nursery filled with Georgia Bulldog paraphernalia. Goodness gracious! I was surrounded by red, black, and white. For a Gator fan, that is pretty shocking. Its all in good fun though. All joking aside...

Little Christian is nothing short of a miracle. When Amber went in for a routine sonogram, the family was faced with the possibility that Christian might have some sort of problem in the heart region. There was a spot that the doctors just couldn't figure out. Well, after months of praying, a healthy delivery, and a superb infant check-up, little Christian is a happy, healthy, and very well newborn. Nothing came of that little spot the doctors couldn't figure out. Praise God!

Prayers are powerful and effective. Our Creator is a good and loving God. If it matters to you, it matters to Him. Keep praying!

Love & Blessings,

Easter Baskets & Bunny Rabbits (take one)

Hello there! What a gorgeous day it was today. Thank you, Lord for providing such a beautiful Spring day :) Well, the following are my first 3 mini-sessions of the day. Unfortunately, you will only see Thumper in two sessions. She hurt her poor little paw this morning and had to be rushed to the vet. Harrison & Mia got to see Thumper and pet her until it was time for her to go. Thank you mommies for helping out this morning with smiles, songs, and funny faces. Hope you enjoy your little sneak peek.

A Taste of Spring!

How beautiful the past few days have been. Spring is beginning to show herself in the warmth of the sun and the coolness in the breeze. It is one of my favorite seasons. I am so passionate about color and Spring blooms so many colors. Its magnificent.
Julian just loves to play outside. I took him to the park yesterday and we ate lunch outside with our friends today. I know the rains are supposed to be starting tomorrow, but we seized the moment and had to take advantage of the excellent weather.
I am trying out my new lens that I purchased as a birthday present. I will be using it more often with portraits. Looking forward to the Easter shoot next weekend!

God Bless!

Spring Photo Shoot

Hello All!

March 20th is the official first day of spring in 2010. I am very excited to be offering KDP's very first Easter Photo Shoot, Easter Baskets & Bunny Rabbits. The name is inspired by my first ever spring shoots from last year with Isabella, Gabriel & Isaac (shown above).

The shoot, weather permitting, will be outside in one of the Providence common areas. This Spring Special is $75 and includes a 20 min. photo session, Online Photo Gallery, and a sweet little picture package that you can customize with your choice of images taken during your session. Come dressed in your Sunday best or in bright casual wear. The kids can bring their Easter Baskets, favorite stuffed animal, or your family pet. Let's have some fun with it!

Please contact me for your scheduled time slot.

In His Love, Karrie

Girls Rock!

I spent the early afternoon with my friend, Crissy and her beautiful girls, Ryleigh & Raegan. Ryleigh is celebrating her 4th birthday & Raegan is celebrating 9 mos. These girls have grown so much I just can't believe it. Raegan was first up in front of the camera. She is always smiling for me. I barely have to move her, she does her own cute little thing. Ryleigh couldn't wait for it to be her turn, which I was so delighted about. Mama curled her pretty blond locks and put her special birthday t-shirt on that says, 4 Rocks! She sure did "rock" her pictures today. I am so proud of her. Crissy, hope you enjoy the sneak peek. God surely blessed us with a great session today.

Love In Him, Karrie
