Maternity: Baby Theobald

August 31, 2009

Last week I had the great pleasure to capture the baby bump of my good friend Laura.  She and her husband are glowing parents-to be, and we had a great time playing around in the park!  Below are a few photos from the session:

Isn’t she just beautiful?!

Her Bassett Hound, William is VERY protective of his mom and his little brother!

To get Chris to “pose” for photos, we had to make it fun!  Here’s Laura tipping the “scale”

For this shot, Chris did his best to stick out his “beer belly” often imitaded, the maternity belly can’t be duplicated!

Last night I had the great pleasure of working with Maya, Christine and Siobhan of Allsop Home and Garden to photograph their latest and greatest products!  I always enjoy working with this great group of women, and the product is equally great!  Last night I shot three new products:  a ceramic light holder (this product has yet to be named as it won’t make its official debut until Spring of 2010!), a new Firefly, and a new string of Aurora glow lights!  Check out a few photos below:

Love Love LOVE the new ceramic light holder!

Sneak Peek: Jolie

August 23, 2009

Yesterday I photographed the fabulous Bat Mitzvah party for miss Jolie!  The event was hosted by her parents and the details and party were put together by the fabulous Table Toppers duo, Sonya Wilander and Maria Gerhardt.  The party took place at Trail Creek Cabin and went off without a hitch thanks to the ever-wonderful Fanny Horn and crew!  Below are a few sneak peek photos from the event:

The most impressive decorations I have seen in the Trail Creek Cabin party tent, to date~

Jolie’s friends’ place settings were identified by their individual gifts: An LCD-screen belt, with their names pre-programmed for display!

This afternoon I met Jennifer and her brother Michael for a brother-sister photo shoot!  They wanted to get some nice photos for their parents for their Christmas present. What a great idea!  Here’s a quick look at today’s shoot:

Oh…my…gosh!  I was downloading this weekend’s photos tonight (I shot a family Friday, a wedding Saturday then a kid shoot today) and as I was downloading Alison’s photos this shot caught my eye:

These three were a HOOT to shoot!  We had sooo much fun at Alison’s in-law’s backyard.  Thank you Alison and family for letting me sit in and photograph your incredibly beautiful and well behaved children (ages 2, 5 and 7)!!!  I can’t wait to post more photos from this fun afternoon!

Boudoir

August 7, 2009

Hey Ladies!!!

Looking to take some “sexy” photos to spice things up in your marriage, or just for fun?  I am now offering “boudoir” photography!  I just finished my first photoshoot of this variety last Friday with a good friend of mine.  She wanted to take these shots to make an album for her husband for their 5 year wedding anniversary, and I must say, she looks HOT!  Since Ketchum/Sun Valley is such a small town…I will not post any photos of her or any of my local clients.  However, if you are interested in this type of photography, I do have “B’s” permission to show any interested Ladies her photos in person.  Here’s a couple of shots that I took last Friday that is anonymous enough to post :)
