Full of Energy! Saturday, May 31 2008 

These two are just too cute and full of energy.  I had such fun with them and they kept me on my toes.  I tell you sometimes I get a true workout, but it is so worth it.  The boy loves his skateboard and he is good too.  I had so many cute one’s and it was hard to choose what to post but I managed to narrow it down.  Here are a few from the session.  Thank you so much for stopping by.  Hope ya’ll enjoy.

Words of Wisdom:  God does not call the equipped; he equips the called.  Ask God what he wants you to do.  Then be amazed at how he provides you with all you need for doing it.  (A mothers prayers for her children)

And now may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, equip you with all you need for doing his will.

HEBREWS 13:20-21 TLB

Thanks & God Bless!

LORD, help us to lead our children to seek your guidance for their life and to stay on the right path.  Amen.

Awaiting Beauty! Wednesday, May 28 2008 

Sorry I am behind on proofing and posting but I am working on it.  Here is a beautiful young lady awaiting her second child.  I think she looks amazing.  I think pregnancy is a beautiful thing and pregnant women just glow.  We never feel pretty when pregnant but others always see the beauty.  I had a great time photographing this session and I hope you enjoy the photos.  Here are a few from the session.  Thanks for stopping by.   Does it seem like we are having a baby boom?  It seems like everyone I know is pregnant.  May God Bless those awaiting and their little one’s.

Words of Wisdom:  Of all the rights of women, the greatest is to be a mother.

Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.

PROVERBS 31:28

LORD, bless all the mothers and their little one’s.  Give each mother the strenght they need.  Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!

Beautiful Family of Four! Wednesday, May 21 2008 

This family was just beautiful and fun to photograph.  We had a great time and captured priceless moments.  I learned things about the kidos that were just too funny.  I love capturing the true spirit of people.  Such great moments to treasure.  Here are a few from the session and it was hard to pick. 

My Matilda Jane show has been moved to 08-16-08 from 2-5 so be sure to change the date on your calander.  I look forward to the new fall line. 

Words of Wisdom:  Learn to say kind things because nobody ever resents them.  (mama’s rules for livin).

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.  By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.

JOHN 13:34-35

LORD, help us to teach our childre how to love one another and show respect and speak kindly to one another.  Amen.

On the run! Sunday, May 18 2008 

This family was a pleasure to photograph and the little one kept me a running.  I was constantly running after him to capture him.  Isn’t he just too cute.  I enjoyed this session as I do all my sessions, but what a fun family to capture.  I have had some great family sessions that were game for my ideas and knew coming into it that there would be no traditional photos taken.  Mark your calendars for my next trunk show that will be on Sat. August 30th from 2-5pm.  You can come between that time.  Contact me if are interested in coming.  This will be the new fall line that is coming out.  Check them out at www.matildajaneclothing.com

Here are a few from the session.  Hope ya’ll enjoy and thanks for stopping by.

Words of Wisdom:  Prefer a loss to a dishonest gain; the one brings pain at the moment, the other for all time.”   _Chilon

No matter how appealing shortcuts may look, don’t take them.  They never pay off in the long run.  The worst of all shortcuts are the ones that chip away at your character.  No kind of gain-whether it be in power, relationships, possessions, or position-is worth the price of your integrity and authenticity.  (Your bridge to a better future by John C Maxwell).

Don’t let money or people talk you into doing something you know in your heart is wrong.  Your walk is more imortant that your talk.

So I strive always to keep my conscience clear before God and man.

ACTS 24:16

LORD, help us to do the things that are right in YOUR eyes and teach our children to make the right decisions.  Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!

A Little Whitty! Thursday, May 15 2008 

 

Ok, how cute is this little guy.  Look at those amazing blue eyes.  I tell you what he was such a happy little guy and such a pleasure to photograph.  He kept me smiling the entire time.  His parents are always a pleasure to be around too.  I enjoyed the afternoon with them.  I feel so blessed with every session I do.  Thanks everyone for stopping by to check out my work.  Here are a few from the session and I hope ya’ll enjoy.

Words of Wisdom:  If you speak kind words, you will hear kind echoes.  (mama’s rules for livin by Mamie McCullough)

Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.

1THESSALONIANS 5:11

LORD, help us to always speak kind words and teach our children to speak kindly.  Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!

A & A= two beautiful sisters Monday, May 12 2008 

I want to thank everyone that came to the trunk show.  It was great and I will be having a Matilda Jane fall trunk show in August for the new fall line.  I am so excited and can’t wait to photograph some of the kidos in their new outfits.  I am excited about the new fall line as well and I can’t wait to photograph my own daughter in her new outfits when they arrive.  I will contact everyone when your order comes in.

These two sisters are just beautiful and I had a great time photographing them.  By the end they were wearing my things and we just had a blast and cut loose.  Here are a few from the session.  Hope ya’ll enjoy.  I am now starting my list for 2009, after I book the calls from last week, I am booked for 2008 and will only be adding people to my cancellation list and for 2009.  I am not going to book into 2009 at this point.  I am going to do it as I did this year and contact everyone in late Dec. or early Jan. that is on my list and then everyone can just call and book at that point.  I look forward to new and exciting things to come in 2009 and this year is going great I am just further behind that usual.

Words of Wisdom:  Children are apt to live up to what you believe of them.

Many… have done well, but you excel them all.

PROVERBS 31:29 NKJV

LORD, lead us and help us all to follow our dreams.  Help us to lead our children to follow their dreams and to know their dreams can become real as long as they keep You in their heart and soul. Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!

Two great kids! Friday, May 9 2008 

This session was great and I had  these kids to myself.  These are my pastor and his wifes’s kids and she was afraid she would be too nervous so she just told me to take the kids and do whatever.  We had fun and what beautiful kids they are inside and out.  They will soon be adding a little brother or sister to the gang.  Wonder if the next one will look anything like their dad because these two look exactly like their mother.  “Thank God”  Just kidding!!!! Bro. S.   I just had to say that.  We are so thankful to have this family in our lives.  They have been such a blessing to us and I thank God for them.  Here are a few from the session, you can’t help but smile when you see them.

Words of Wisdom:  The circumstances amid which you live determine your reputation; The truth you believe determines your character.  Reputation is what you are supposed to be; Character is what you are……

Reputation is what you have when you come to a new community;  Character is what you have when you go away.

 Your reputation is made in a moment; Your character is built in a lifetime…….  Reputation is what men say about you on your tombstone;  Character is what the angels say about you before the throne of God.”  William Hersey Davis

“The joy of the LORD is your strength.”

NEHEMIAH 8:10

LORD, help us all to spread joy and help us to do it daily.  Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!

I am very excited about my MATILDA JANE trunk show I am having Sat. between 3&5pm.  You are welcome to stop by and see all the cute clothes.  Contact me if you want to come by and see the cute clothes.  Check them out here at www.matildajaneclothing.com

Beautiful Little Girl! Monday, May 5 2008 

This session was so much fun and this little girl is just beautiful inside and out.  She can’t help it because she has beautiful parents as well.  She was so full of spunk and I just really enjoyed my time spent with her and her mom.  She loves to read and wanted me to capture her with her books.  I love this job.  I am always amazed with the children and their imaginations.  Here are a few of my favorites.  Thanks everyone for stopping by and I hope you enjoy. 

Words of Wisdom:  The heart of a child is the most precious of God’s creation (Joseph L. Whitten).

Train children in the right way, and when old, they will not stray.

PROVERBS 22:6 NRSV

LORD, help us to travel the road you would have us travel so that our children will follow in our footsteps.  Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!

On grandfathers farm! Thursday, May 1 2008 

Well I finally got customer support and got the problem resolved.  It was driving me crazy but I have regained my sanity somewhat now.  I had a great time capturing these moments of this little boy on his gradnfather’s farm.  At first I didn’t think he was going to let me get anything, but he got into the swing of it after just a little bit.  Once he started playing all was good.  Here are a few from the session.  Hope you enjoy.  Thanks for being patient and stopping by to look.

Words of Wisdom:  The key to everything is patience. You get the chicken by hatching the egg, not by smashing it open.(God’s Little Devotional book for parents).

For ye have need of patience.

HEBREWS 10:36 kjv

LORD, help us all to have patience and to always know that everything is on your time not ours.  Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!
