Sunflowers make me happy

Sneak

My Snuggle Luv shoot was last night and although it didn't go quite as smoothly as I would have liked, we had fun and got some great shots!
After getting kicked out of one of my favorite locations, at which i have shot several times, I found one that I LOOOVE even more! wahoo! Here is a sneak of our shoot. More to come!

It bums me out that her skin tone is so muted in this online version.

Snuggle Luv has made their decision! The based it off who they think would best fit their costumes. They said it was extremely hard to choose because all of the babies are GORGEOUS!
I'm glad I didn't have to make the decision or they all would have been picked!!
Thanks so much for your interest!
Continue to check back for more opportunities like this in the future. There will be more Snuggle Luv shoots to come and they are often looking for cute kids to model.

Thanks again! Give all those darling baby girls a squeeze!

p.s. EVERYONE who sent me an e-mail will receive 10% off your next shoot!

photo shoot?

I'm doing a photo shoot with "Snuggle Luv" for their new Halloween line. I need a baby girl that can sit up, but can't yet walk, so about 6 or 7 months. She will be modeling a peacock costume and possibly other "Snuggle Luv" products.
If chosen, you will receive all of the photos of her on a disk and her pictures will be featured on Snuggle Luv's website and possibly in their kiosk in the mall.
The shoot will take place this Wednesday (23) evening.

If you're interested, please send me an e-mail with a photo of your darling baby girl attached:
greyphotography@yahoo.com

bribery, gotta love it!

this is my cute cousin, kara and her family. i adore them. her little guy was so smiley and easy. what a concept! we didn't even have to make big promises or bribes... until the very end of the session. (yes, i'm a huge advocate of bribing children for smiles. i've said it before and i'll say it again. it works!)
i'm pretty sure they told him they'd take him swimming that night, go to chucky cheese and drink a bottle of "bug juice," possibly simultaneously. that's how we got that adorable smile at the end. haha.
thanks kara, love you guys!!

life is crazy!

i have had a whirlwind of a week (or two). we moved, and i have to say that moving is definitely on my top five least favorite activities! ugh.
my husband is getting ready to start his second year (and last year, hooray!) of graduate school next week. during his last week of "vacation" he went to new york, so i am officially a single mom for a few days! trust me, my list goes on and on, but i'll end there... hopefully all my complaining has granted me some forgiveness for being an extremely neglectful blogger?

i do, however, have some fun sessions i am so looking forward to posting and i promise to get them up soon! so thanks for your patience and as always, thank you for continuing to check back!

cassie + jeremy.

i am kind of in love with cassie's vintage style dress. it is so unique and i'm pretty much obsessed. it gave me so much inspiration!
we certainly got down and dirty for this shoot, from a hog farm to a broken down car lot and i have the mosquito bites to prove it. next time i will have plenty of deet in tow! but it was all so worth it! i only posted about 400, but wanted to post more.
tell me what ya think...
