Really! This shoot took place in January on Short Beach in Stratford, CT! At first when I spoke with Melissa I thought this will never work, the temperature had been in the single digits for weeks. How can she go to the beach and strip down…she’ll freeze. So we waited and watched the temp and to both our surprise there were a few days that actually hit 40! So we went for it, funny thing was 2 days later we had snow and the temps went down again into the single digits. I think that mother nature knew how badly she wanted these shots done at the beach, and it warmed up just for her. 🙂 Now when the baby comes in a few weeks we have to bring him down here and take some of these same photos with him, hopefully by mid to late April we can have a little warm up again. Melissa looks amazing for being 36 weeks pregnant!! Keep a look out in a few months for baby Cameron!

-Marina-
Ahhhhh Marina, how adorable she is. This photo shoot was a bit exhausting. She was FULL of energy! being just shy of 2 I knew what I was getting into when I got there 😉 . She was laughing then crying, then running and climbing, she was playing and hiding, and throwing and screaming, she was stubborn then easy going. She wouldn’t sit in front of the Tree, but then again wouldn’t any 2 year old do the same thing…. Her mom had given up hope on getting any good photos of her. BUT…she did… not only was she happy with the many photos, but was excited that we captured all the “faces” of Marina. She is so adorable we ended up with almost 100 photos. I think that was a good days work 🙂 Love The Shoes!!!!
Of course I had to get a few pics of the dog too!

Christmas Is My Favorite Time Of The Year!
I LOVE Christmas! It’s the only holiday where I go crazy decorating, it takes me 3 days to decorate just the inside of my house. My husband does the outside and he can normally get it done in a day. I have always loved it, and have collected ornaments for as long as I can remember. For every occasion I’d pick out an ornaments. Every vacation, every milestone in my life, my engagement, my wedding, my new house, my pregnancies, my kids first day of school. EVERYTHING! I have over 1,100 ornaments on my tree! Not one branch in empty, some branches even have 2 ornaments, and I have a 9′ huge tree. At this point I have also gotten mini trees for my kids rooms, and some ornaments have moved there I may have to get a forth tree!! 🙂 Anyway I was bored one day and started taking pictures….
She is such a cutie… :)
This is my niece she is such a cuteee, we had so much fun doing this shoot. She is all business when it comes to the camera, being a dancer and on stage all the time she is use to getting her photo taken. She wants to be in and out as soon a s possible… Love all these shots of her- I’m sure her parents will love them too. How can they not 🙂 I think she is done! LOL
