Still working on it...

I was hoping to debut the new site here this month, but it looks like it might be February! Still working on a few little things here and there... but I am really excited about how it's all coming together. I also have more photos to share of recent sessions, too... hopefully in the next day or two. :)

Booking March now - give me a call to schedule your session! 702.219.8166

Expecting...

I love the anticipation of first time parents...


I love this shot on the bed with their wedding photo in the background. I can't wait to do another shot like this but with their little boy right between them. :)

Congratulations, Lisa & Spencer! Just a few more weeks and we'll all get to meet your beautiful baby boy! I hope you enjoy this little preview of your gallery. :)

Cutie Baby

Deanna called me to take photos of her little guy, as he was already approaching a month old and we didn't want to miss out on those important newborn photos! I am so glad she did. I always set aside days just for newborn appointments, since ideally they should take place within the first couple weeks of baby's life. So even if my schedule may appear full, newborns are the one exception. :)

I just loved the way the family interacted... and look at how precious that sweet baby's little face is!!
He had so much fun "talking" to his mommy :)
And of course, the big brothers got to be a part of the action, too :)

Enjoy your preview, Deanna! Your gallery will be up within a week!

Now Booking February!

Back from a restful vacation with all sorts of fun, new things planned for Speckled Bird Art! Coming soon - a new look for the blog and a complete overhaul of the main site! I can't wait to show all of you!

January has been fully booked and I have just a few more spots for sessions in February. If you are interested in a session, call me at 702.219.8166!

And because having a post without a photo is no fun, here's an image from an awesome newborn session I just did...

New baby and 2007 year end slideshow!

Congratulations, Michelle! He is beautiful. Here are a few of my favorites from the session...

Your gallery will be up when I return to work next week!

So, what did you do Wednesday night?

I got to witness a miracle.

Congratulations, Kristine & Chris! He is beautiful. I hope you have figured out what his name will be!

New baby... and naptime

I had the pleasure of meeting this little guy last weekend...
With his beautiful big sister...
Silly older brothers...
And one brother who really needed a nap!
So we gave him one while I did the rest of the family photos... and he was a much happier little dude after that :)

Enjoy your preview, Holli! Merry Christmas!

It's a boy!

I was thrilled to get a phone call from this lovely family that I photographed last week... baby #3 made his entrance a little earlier than expected, and I will get to take his newborn photos this weekend! What a perfect way to end my 2007 sessions!

Congratulations to the whole, happy family! I can't wait to meet the littlest member!

Now Booking 2008!

Speckled Bird Art will be closed from December 22, 2007-January3, 2008 for the holidays. I hope everyone gets a chance to enjoy time with their family. Thank you all for a wonderful year! Stay tuned for a special slideshow with images from 2007...

Sometimes...

they just don't want their picture taken any more. Click on the photo for a larger view :)

More silly girls

These sisters were so funny. We had all sorts of smiles and giggles...
And I love the way they coordinated their cute, sassy outfits! Same design, different colors. SO CUTE!
And it was the little one's birthday that day! I love that we got to celebrate it with a fun photo session with the family.
The rest of the gallery will be up by the end of the week!

Siblings.

This brother and sister pair were so fun to photograph. He was quite a ham, and she had an infectious smile. I had a great time at the session!

Hope you enjoyed the preview, Nikol! The full gallery will be up before the end of the week. I will be out of the office until late Wednesday evening - I am available by phone, but will have limited (if any) email access until my return.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend!

Another birthday kid

This little guy turned one the day before our session. He was so cute! We spent the morning at Tule Springs park chasing geese and exploring nature. I just loved his little smile...

Thanks for such a fun morning, little guy!

Natural beauty

I had such fun at this session! Rachel was completely a natural beauty, both inside and out. And I think she has the best hair in the world!

Family playtime

Suzi hired me because of my philosophy. She wanted me to capture her family being exactly who they are - playful, tactile, and in love. We had such a great time, and her kids were absolutely adorable!

It was such a joy to get to know this family, and to be a part of their family playtime. Enjoy your little preview, Suzi! :)

Sometimes they cry...

But during the session, we wait till baby calms down... And we always end up with beautiful photos we absolutely love...

Little preview for Anna & Chris - can't wait to show you the whole gallery! :)

Anticipation...

A quick peek for a lovely maternity client... I had so much fun shooting your pics the other day! I hope you enjoy this little preview! :)

Giggly girls

are just so much fun.

I loved spending the afternoon at the park with these three sisters. Each one of them had such a distinct, fun personality...

And, of course, there was a LOT of giggling!

In love...

I love doing a session with just a couple of adults. It's so much fun and relaxed - and I love to see how the two of them interact with each other. These two have been married 11 years and are just still so much in love. I love to see that :)
