Little Snow Bunny

I just returned last night from spending almost a week in Louisville with the Smith and Godthaab families - it wasn't planned that way, but we had a little ice storm come through that changed my travel plans for the rest of the week. Following the ice storm came a beautiful snow fall...it truly was gorgeous - just a blanket of white covering everything. When I left EARLY in the morning on Thursday, it was still dark out. There were lots of street lights out, but the glow of car headlights made every frozen tree look like it was literally made of crystal...just spectacular...really, really gorgeous!

So, since I was there with this beautiful snow and camera in tow, I just HAD to capture some pictures...so the Smiths were my guinea pigs. Isn't Evie precious with her little pink crocheted hat that Ms. Beth gave her for Christmas (that's me - I'm Ms. Beth to the Smith kids).And sweet Evie girl with her Momma! I love these pictures of them!

The Smiths - Take Two!

This is *Take Two* because *Take One* was a bust...but I won't go into that! As you can tell by the pictures, there was preparation involved...a lot of preparation! Try approximately 8-9 months of preparing, or shopping, for the perfect red velvet couch to allow this idea come to fruition. And all of this had to be done on one of my trips to Louisville, KY - don't want all of my Baton Rouge clients trying to figure out where, in Baton Rouge, I might have taken these photographs! Sorry! :( Even though this was Anna's initial idea, only the best of friends (and their husbands!) will remain patient enough with the photographer to make it right...so thank you, friends! I am certainly glad we decided to make a second go at it!

And their Christmas card...printed on Pearl paper - YUM!!! These images really don't do it justice.

A trifold - The silhouette picture was the very back of the trifold and the right 1/3 of the card with Merry Christmas was the very front, with the words being the inside flap.

And the full inside spread - a full 5" x 15" spread!

Lundy family

More from fall...the Lundy family...Lisa, Fred, and Kate! Lisa and I are in Bible Study together - when we can coordinate our schedules! Between work, traveling, and babies, it's hard to get together! I was honored to be able to take their pictures and design their Christmas cards!

More samples from Fall

My sweet friend, Charlotte, and her 2 kiddos and her Mom - I loved being able to capture pics with her Mom and the kids!

The Harvisons - sort of like family! :) This is my sister's sister-in-law and brother-in-law and their 2 precious pies, Blocker and Lucy Claire!

Off to have lunch with family back home, so I'll be back later posting more from what I've been up to!
