Except Emily. Emily is a rule-breaker! (It's the name! :) ) Emily was NOT having any of this picture taking stuff and howled a good six hours through our first appointment. I kid you not! I probably snapped 20 images total in all those hours (we spent lots of time chatting too :) ) and all were total throw-aways. So, I asked Christy and Jon if I could come back the next day to see if Emily was in a better mood.
Well! What do you know! She was! She was in a great mood and was a total model baby for us. The session was still on the longer side (not six hours though!) because I'm still working on my baby technique (lol), but I think it went pretty well, don't you?
I know it's not the holidays anymore, but be sure to keep a lookout for the shots of Emily inside a Christmas stocking... that Christmas stocking was given to me by my Grandmother, and each member of my family has a hand-knit stocking in the same style. The girls all have Santa Clauses and the boys all have "something else," lol. I think my brother has a snowman, somebody else has a reindeer? Anyway, at the top of each stocking, our names are knit into the top. So the top of this stocking says, "EMILY," so you know I had to use it for our session. I didn't do a good job at making sure the name was visible, but I still think Emily looks pretty sweet in it, don't you?
As a refresher, here is where you might be recognizing Jon & Christy from!
Perhaps their ENGAGEMENT SESSION?
Or maybe their WEDDING at the Firehouse?
Or was it the MATERNITY session we did?
Jon & Christy are really a great example of how to really utilize your Platinum Package.. there is no expiration as to when those sessions need to be used, so take your time! I love seeing my couples grow and move into the next stage of their life- be it marriage or even a new baby. If this is your first time checking out J & C, go peek back at some of their old sessions. They've been around since 2008, so there is quite an evolution of the quality of my work over the last two years- sometimes it's good to remember where you've been so you can remember how far you've come!
and with that, meet Emily...
Which one?
Here's my stocking!!! :)
The whole family!
and my very very VERY favorite, once again:
:D I love, love LOVE that shot!
PS: I made that quilt we have her lying on top of in many of the shots (the one that looks like it's a bunch of different blankets- it was a failed attempt at a "Princess & the Pea" idea...lol), and I also made the headband with the GIANT flower. It looks pretty cute on my head too you know! LOL
