one of the fun sides of my many “fun sided job” is getting to work with so many different people and organizations throughout cincinnati.  i am proud to be involved with the baby guide and recently had the pleasure of photographing elise for the baby guide magazine.  they held a beautiful baby contest and she won for the three-four year old category.  how could she not?  look at those eyes and her little piggy tails!  her mom, courtney, and i set up her shoot in a place that courtney thought would be fun and different from sessions she’d had before.  elise was photographed first in an adorable pink dress from the spotted goose boutique and then sported her own outfit.  what a dollface!  she’s featured in this year’s magazine so if you have a copy, look her up.  i have copies if you want one.  there are great resources/coupons/articles/ads for everything from pregnancy to playgroups, schools and more.  oh, and of course, photographers!

happy valentine’s day to all of you!  i know the blog’s been a little (ok, a lot) quiet these days.  why?  it’s because i’m getting so many new products and ideas together for the new year.  to celebrate all of that newness, i thought i’d have a valentine’s day special.  celebrating valentine’s day one day of the month is just not enough.  let’s extend the love.  book a session in february and receive $50 off.  it doesn’t matter if you want a session soon or in the summer.  book it now, and you’ll save mucho bucks.  this is good for maternity, babies, seniors, etc.  saving money…another reason to love valentine’s day!

i thought i’d share a valentine’s card i designed for one of my baby plan clients.  andrew is SUCH a dollface…i’d find any reason to feature him on the blog again!  hope you find many reasons to kiss, hug and love all of the dollfaces in YOUR lives today & always.
