Got Time? Volunteering in the Community

I am a helper at heart, always have been. I just truly enjoy volunteering and am fortunate to be in a position to have a bit of time to give back to the community. Besides being involved on the board of my local MOMS Club and my daughter's preschool, I recently signed up for the Meals on Wheels program in my area. Today was our second delivery and what fun! My daughter just loves chatting while we drop the meals off and the seniors are so grateful! What a great way to make a big difference with just a little bit of time and effort! Do you have an hour an week?...

Creative Movements

Creative Movements is a fantastic movement class I found while living in London. It was one of my daughters favorite classes! It is loved by locals and celebrities alike! Ginny, the talented owner and founder of Creative Movements just freshened up her website and I am honored that she used a few photos that I took! There is a picture of my daughter with Ginny on the home page, which looks like she could be Ginny's daughter! The other pictures are on the Parties page. Cheers! http://www.creativemovements.co.uk/

Siblings

Here is a sneak peek from my latest session of a brother and his little sister...what cuties! I had a lot of fun playing with them! Enjoy ~

A Very, Very Sleepy Newborn!

This is the first session that I've had in which the parents had to pull out all the stops to get this little guy to open his eyes for a few portraits! They really wanted some portraits with his eyes open and he really didn't want to do that, sleep was too high up on his list! What a cute head of hair on this little guy, I just love newborns!

This family was referred to me from another client (thank you Alice!) which is the best! Alice has received a $25 session fee credit and a $25 portrait credit for each referral to Photography by Christine that booked and completed a session. If you are pleased with my work, please refer away! Cheers!

Special Baptism Session

It was time for a 3-month session for this little guy already. It seems like I just photographed him as a newborn, which I guess was in December! Mom wanted the 3-month session with him in his baptism outfit (before he grows out of it, it was close!) similar to what she did for his two older siblings.

This baby is very relaxed, you can already tell he is going to be laid back, a great baby to photograph and so handsome! Here is a sneak peek from this session in his special baptismal outfit (which has now been retired)... Enjoy!

Oh Boys, Times 2!

Look at these two little identical cuties! These little peanuts arrived a bit early, but doing well and just turned 3 weeks old! They are only 2 oz. different in size, but amazingly I could tell them apart most of the session, 2 oz. actually makes a difference when one is so little...
