Positives regarding unemployment

My husband lost his job last week.  I have been incredibly stressed out over it, but there are some positives about it.  I get to leave the kids at home with him, so I can go out and explore and take photos.  Here are some of the photos that I took at Three Creeks Metro Park.  All photos can be purchased.  If one catches your eye just contact me for prices.

I didn't even know this little guy was there until after I got home.  

Early bird catches the worm.

I just love the texture of this tree!  

Maternity

I had a chance to do maternity photos for a wonderful young lady.  You may recognize her because I also had the chance to do her senior pictures a few years ago.

She had a senior picture taken at this same tree.

A lot of you may know that I usually bring my son with me to my shoots.  He is developing quite the eye, but he also provides the comic relief.  He has made so many of my clients become more relaxed by him being there.  Sometimes, there are some hilarious out takes.  This is one of them.

Artsy Stuff.

It has been a while since I have done a post.  To be honest, I haven't done much in the way of photo shoots lately due to health reasons.  However, I have done a lot of more artistic photos.  So here they are.  All of these photos can be purchased at my etsy shop here.

To book a session for your child please call 614-859-0831, or message me through this blog.  Also, be sure to "Like" me on Facebook to stay current specials.  

I really hope her eyes stay blue, but I think genetics are against us.  

For some reason I like this slouchy picture a lot.  I can't put my finger on it though.  

The bow that Clara is wearing came from Meredith Gray.  She created a wonderful nursing scarf for me, and a bunch of bows.  You should like her pages too.  www.etsy.com/shop/meredeedesigns

Beautiful Baby!

I love birth photography, but I love newborn photography more!  I aim to get natural shots.  Unfortunately, I didn't get of Clara with her mommy because that is me.  I didn't feel like setting up the tripod with a 3 year old running around.  Hope you enjoy the photos!  

I adore the rolls in this photo!  

And the rolls in this one!  

If you need newborn photos it is best to have the photos within the first two weeks of their life.  I would suggest calling to set a tentative booking early.  Then nail down a date once your bundle of joy  arrives.

Right now bookings in February 2015 are 20% off!  Be sure to Like my Facebook Page to stay current on specials that I am running!

Clara's Birth: Warning There are some pictures from the C-section but not graphic.

As the title suggests, there are some photos from the C-section.  They aren't graphic in my opinion...just beautiful and unique.  Most of them I left out, and the ones I put in here are black and white to make it easier for you to look at.

Birth photography is something that I very much would like to get more into.  I love life being created.  I love witnessing families grow.  I begged my husband to photograph my C-Section because I wish more than anything I could have been the one doing it.

This is me relaxing as the procedure is taking place.  

This is the first glimpse I had of my Clara.

This picture is extremely unique.  It is a knotted umbilical cord. It can be very bad during a vaginal delivery.  We had no idea it happened even though I was having weekly ultrasounds.  About 1 in 150 births have this happen.

My son was convinced I was having a baby whale.  He was amazed that it was a human baby.  

First time he touches her.
