Little Miss Bella: Family shots

June 22, 2008 – 11:11 pm

This is Bella! She is the beautiful daughter of my hair stylist Andrea, from Bob[salon]. Andrea came and worked with me for the model shoot we had in March and since then she’s been responsible for making my hair look fantastic…(and she totally has!) I have shot a lot for Bob[salon] recently and Andrea asked if I could come over and shoot some pictures of miss Bella last week… so, I did and we had a super fun time! Bella was so funny! At first..she was a little shy and reserved but by the time we were done…she was wide open and full of laughs. :) We started the session by hanging out in Bella’s play room and reading a few stories..then we went outside to wait on her Pap Pap (grandfather) to get there(we played around in his old sports car…Bella LOVED IT!)… and then we wrapped it up with play time with Pap Pap and a little bit if snuggling….it was a really fun time! Here are a few of our fav’s. :)



Bella REALLY wanted to take some pictures…so I sat her in my lap and she got this picture of Andrea and their pup Zoe…way to go baby Bella!!!!

She and Zoe diggin for books…



Then we caught her jumpin on the bed!


These are her 3 favorite things…

Alrighty…one big thing that we have been busy with this week is putting together a proposal for an ad agency for a shoot that we may have next week…well…we are looking for several models so…anyone interested please email me!!! BUT…craigslist can bring many an interesting folk when you put a request on there…so…my assistant Katie and her husband Matt (from Southern Road Productions) found my ad and THIS is what I got from Matt in my email box…someone remind me to preface my advertisements next time! hahahahahah I love you guys!

Heres what the email said:

Hi. I’m a hot young model looking for a new gig that pays some fat cash…I have the ability to grow a beard on the spot, so I’m pretty damn awesome.

If that wasnt convincing enough…Here’s me putting out some sexy vibe…


You’re Welcome,

Matt

Nicole & Cullen:Engaged!

June 7, 2008 – 2:19 am

Everyone, meet Nicole and Cullen! We shot their E-session this week and it was so much fun! These two are the perfect example of why filling out our bridal surveys in detail is SUPER important..because we were able to plan their session around the things we learned about them both from their surveys and incorporate a lot of fun things into their shoot and BOY was it fun! Nicole and I have spent countless hours gabbing and chatting about anything and everything under the start and Cullen is more your silent type..but when you get him talking…he is a barrel of laughs! These two love each other so much and the more I watched them interact..the more it became outright apparent that they are a perfect fit together. Cullen treats Nicole like she’s …fragile and delicate…its really sweet to watch. :) And Nicole lets Cullen be the protector. She really embraces his being a man…she really respects him. We are RIDICULOUSLY excited about shooting their wedding in October..so stay tuned for Nicole’s Bridals and their wedding in the near future. :) With them..it really is a love thing….

Nicole said that one of her favorite things Cullen does for her..is fold laundry. Its her arch nemesis of all of the household chores and Cullen gladly folds and stacks the laundry for her..so I thought it fitting that we make our first stop be somewhere that would REALLY help us see how much they loved each other… the laundromat…hehehehehe



Can we talk about this big ole ring!???!! Its stunning!


Then it was off to my new secret hideaway…. :)


We ended the night with a fantastic dinner at their favorite restaurant, Harry Bissett’s. The food was awesome and we had the best time talking and eating…a LOT!


And lastly… Cullen’s birthday was the day before our shoot so we snuck in a little “Happy Birthday” singing after dinner…


Thanks Nicole and Cullen for a super fun night together…we love you guys already and cant wait to hang out again ASAP! To see their slide show…click HERE
