Happy New Year!
Okay, I know I'm a little late on the "Happy New Year" thing, but it's for good reason. I have been working on some really exciting changes with Elizabeth Ann Photography. I want to thank you all for a SUPER fall season that had me working to the "wee hours" of the night many times from September through December. I have met so many wonderful new families and also continue to service my "regulars".
In order to keep up with the photo sessions, picture orders and the "changing times"...I have decided to go DIGITAL! Yes, some of you may be saying FINALLY!
I have actually been filtering it in with my film, throughout the last few months and it has been working out beautifully. My only problem is I am shooting sooo many pictures, it is hard to decide what to have printed as proofs. So that is where some of the changes will be coming in, but I am really excited about it. Make sure you check my upcoming blog entries to hear more of the details.
I had promised you all that I would be sharing some of my favorite shots from this past season throughout the next month and as I was just going through some of my "digital" images (conveniently saved on my computer to upload to the blog website,
)...and I came across some of my favorites I had shot with a friend of mine, Kelly, and her two little boys. Looking at how many pictures I actually shot for the "red wagon scene" was literally obnoxious! But it is so funny to look back on them now in sequence. Let me set the stage for you...
Kelly wanted to get a picture of her two sons in grandma and grandpa's red wagon and give this picture to them for Christmas. Well, wouldn't you know we waited until the end of the photo shoot to do this little setup, so by now her one and three year old were a little reved up!
Here is how it goes...
Sit the boys in the wagon...

Tell boys to smile, but not listening so Kelly (mom) starts being really silly....

I mean REALLY silly....(don't you just love how genuinely happy they are in these shots...just like kids!)

Tell boys to settle down and just "love each other"....

Give boys a break from wagon....

Put boys back in wagon....still looking for that perfect shot...

More "lovin"...

One year old wants out of wagon...


Three year old is getting tired of this....

Sit them up, one more last shot....

Kelly, if you are reading this now, I hope Grandma & Grandpa liked their final picture.
But what we should've ordered for them is a framed collage of ALL of these....

' Til next time,
Julie

Julie: As always quality pictures and of course adorable kids. I also loved the Happy New Year newsletter to all your customers. It was good seeing you and Carlie the other day too. I know your 2008 will be just as good as ever. Best of luck to all of you at Elizabeth Ann Photography!!!Kathy

Thanks Julie. I love these shots. It really tells the story of what we went through that day. It was so hard choosing which pictures to order. I wanted all the "bad" ones as well as the good ones because it really tells the story of what life is like with two little boys. As always, you did a great job. Keep up the good work.

Julie (and Kelly),
Those shots are awesome and capture the moment almost as if you were there!! It's great! I totally agree with the "collage" theme....?anniversaries, birthdays, or just for the heck of it...Great idea!!
Thanks for sharing!!

Thanks Jeanne! Ya know, it would be neat to do a collage type theme for some of your favorites of Tylan over the past few years as well...he is growing up so fast...it would be neat to see one or two pictures, of each photo shoot we have done with him, all put together in one collage frame.
Take care!
