Announcements


A couple quick things here to note...I am getting close to sending out all children portrait images. If you do not see your child(ren) on my blog, please know that it is nothing personal and I have no favorites, outside of my family:) I just don't have a lot of extra time to post everyones pictures on here, with the busy time of year here already, I'm sure everyone understands.

On a second note...I am taking down my Christmas background Thursday evening so, Kristy, bring Connor by to get his picture taken! And Angela you too! If you just didn't have time last week to bring your kiddos by please call me Wed or Thursday and we can work on getting a time for one of those days before I move on to family portraits this coming up weekend.

The two open time slots for Norton on Saturday the 18th, have been filled. But, not to worry, I will be taking open appointments throughout the month of December. I will, however be gone Christmas eve until the 2nd of the new year....wow, I can't believe 2007 is just around the corner.

Johnson Kids








These kids are so easy to work with, they just let me move them however I like. Connor hopped in a jeep just before the shoot and hit the gas pedal headed straight for the lights, poor thing had no clue how to make the tires stop. I thought it was over, but he held it together for the sake of a cute Christmas photo. And Kahlan, isn't she precious? Her little smirky smile!

Baby Dylan







I now know that Dylan has a set of pipes on him...poor thing cried the entire time, but mommy held it together, she was a real trooper. We managed to get decent shots of him that didn't scream, "get me out of this basket". Mallori will always remember this was the Christmas that he didn't want to be photographed.

Two cute Parrotts!




These girlies were so funny! They had a new pose for me with each click. They were setting up their own poses and doing quite a great job at it!

Ethan & Ella revised storyboards


Jessica

Wow, this was easy! And so fast as well. I am so used to working with kids under four that I forgot how fast a session could be with older kids.




Pretty girl, she came in, sat down, knew exactly what to do. I didn't really have to say a word to her, we were honestly done within two minutes, Wow! It was a nice change for the week. Not too long after Jessica's visit all the challenges began again, which I also find "nice" :) Its what I love doing, getting those babies of yours to look my way...love it! Thanks Jessica for the "break"!





The storyboard "Christmas Cutie" above is a 20x20...$170, but can also be created in a 12x12...$55. This Christmas card directly above is a 5x5...$2, cards can also be custom made in a 5x7, envelopes are included.

The Joyce's





I had the joy of working with sweet Ella before and now I got a little taste of Ethan! Funny boy this one is. He was working so hard to give us just the right smile for his pictures, he did great! And Ella, well, she loved the tree, it was all so new to her.

Olivia



Here is my sweet little niece Livia, at her best, these photos capture the very personality that is her. A bit to her self, a bit timid, but give her something to love on and shes gone! So cute! I'm sure she thinks Shell Shell was born with a lense attatched to one of her eyes.






This storyboard and the one below are both 10x20 in size, they are priced at $75; for more information on storyboards please visit my website at: www.MichelleJPhoto.com

Off to school


Probably once a week on the way out the door for school, Alli will pose outside for me in the morning, I guess she has the energy to do so. Anyway, I like it, because she is always clean and dressed cute, so it works out for both of us...yeah, this blog was a sad excuse for one, but its a post at least, unlike some people we know...can I get an Amen?

My Little Puppy Dog


Oh, my precious Landon was sooo cute as well! I put the face on him at first but it didn't last. One rub of his eyes or his nose and it was everywhere, so he went to the festival without it, but he was still so yummy.
