Meet baby Emma

I have like 65 proofs to show them..and to be honest...I knew that a few were gonna turn out the way they did, but I had a bad feeling about alot of them also...I was TRULY AMAZED when I looked at their album last night...I'm feeling pretty proud of myself right now, I hope this doesnt sound corny...This is so far my best work yet...phew...at least I'm going in the right direction!
I have like 25 favorites... so I might just post like 5 or 6 today, then post some more over the next few days.

Shooting a newborn...its hard, its time consuming, but its fun...and Im addicted to it..This took just over 4 hours, from arrival to departure, which was plenty long enough..lil miss Emma didnt really want to sleep much for me, so we kept just waiting..LMAO...

I learned to bring more pillows to stuff inside my trunk...she is tucked too far in there to see very much of her :(. I have a bit more of a shopping list to get before I do an on location shoot again...Dang backdrop stand was supposed to be there Thursday Am , so I could use it for this..but It wasn't, so well heck we made DO...

Lauren's got a new kit!

and Its WONDEFUL...not that her kits arent always ! LMAO..anyways its available soon at the sweet shoppe. Here is a preview of it, and a quick LO I did this morning..so far this one happens to be one of my all time favorites...yippeee..gotta like when that happens! OK off to do more proofing...hee hee sorry to keep you all in suspense...

My Thursday Thirteen!

Thirteen Things I'm nervous about today 1…. I have my first newborn photo shoot at 10 AM 2. I hope the baby girl is happy 3. I hope the baby girl will sleep lots 4. I hope that I can get all the shots I want, while she is sleeping 5. I hope that I can pick up my new backdrop stand BEFORE the shoot!(oppsy) 6. I hope that the dad has big strong arms...I got a few super cool poses just for him and baby! 7. I hope that big sister wants her picture taken too 8. I hope that baby girl doesnt pee or worse on my backdrop or my props..( actually pee I wont mind) 9. I hope that momma and daddy both have black shirts they can wear. 10. I hope my kids keep sleeping for 30 more minutes so I can have a shower! 11. Im gonna shoot Raw + JPG today...I have 3GB of memory..so about 300 pics...I hope that will be enough! 12. I'm hoping that a sleeping newborn will be easier than chasing after a 3 year old for a photo shoot! 13. I'm hoping that the Mommy will be really happy with the photos I get of them today!
