three is lovely (chandler child photographer)

March 11, 2010

“A three year old child is a being who gets almost as much fun out of a fifty-six dollar set of swings as it does out of finding a small green worm. “

~Bill Vaughan

I just love birthday sessions.  This little sweetie will be turning three in a few short weeks, and mom wanted to have a session to commemorate this special time in her daughter’s life.  We had so much fun!  I adored the outfits and accessories that mom came with, and this darling little girl just instinctively knew how to pose!  Let me tell you–I am SO lucky to have the most amazing clients, from my smallest newbies, to precocious toddlers to expectant mommies.  Don’t you think this little doll belongs in a catalog?  I always like to suggest when doing children’s sessions that we go with both a classic look and a more funky and fun look.  I love to capture every aspect of their full personalities.  Thanks for a great session–it was so fun to meet you and your little explorer!  I can’t wait to hear how much she enjoys her birthday tea party!  :)

xoxo,

laura

designer love: modern cupcake chic (phoenix photographer)

February 18, 2010

“Friends are like cupcakes in my pantry of memories.”

~Anonymous


Okay, so I just NEED to find an excuse to have one of these babies designed.  Amazing!  Are you a fun bride-to-be looking for something that will cause your guests to talk about your reception for years to come?  Hosting a baby shower and want a wow-za centerpiece?  Planning your child’s birthday party?

Read on and drool.

My dear friends Vicki and Ray worked together to design this unique cupcake holder–it is suspended from the ceiling!  I had to share it with you because they design each holder custom to YOU!  That means no one will be exactly the same and you can work with them to create exactly what you want.  They make quite a team–Vicki is an architect and designs the holders and Ray builds them.  Seriously, I could never do that.  They have some serious talent, don’t you think?

If you are interested in discussing how you can have your own designed, just call Vicki at 602.909.6118 or email her at andersvl@hotmail.com.

I want you to just TRY not to think of cupcakes all.day.long. after checking out these gorgeous photographs from a recent wedding they designed this holder for.

A very special thanks to the wonderful Ali of Ali Broach Photography for generously providing her beautiful images.  All photographs in this post © Ali Broach Photography.  Thanks, Ali!

What is your fave type of cupcake?  All chocolate?  Red velvet?  Yummy!

I love this shot and how you can see it suspended from the ceiling…floating cupcakes!

Mmmmm….:)

So, so beautiful and unique, right?  Give Vicki a call to chat with her, pass this on to someone you know, or simply drool over the cool design and delectable cupcakes.  Anyone making a trip to Sprinkles now?  :)

xoxo,

laura

fun fam’ (mesa family photographer)

February 15, 2010

“Rejoice with your family in the beautiful land of life.”

~Albert Einstein

I just love this family.  We had such a wonderful time walking around and chatting for our shoot.  It was a photographer’s paradise!  We came upon fabulous nooks and crannies filled with incredible textures, colors and objects.  Big bro rocked out for me–I love these photos of him jamming on the air guitar!  :)   And, wow!  Don’t mom and dad make the most stunning couple?!  Gorgeous!!  Our session ended with a trip to the ice cream shop.   Little L had dreams of pink ice cream and colored sprinkles the entire day.  She got just that.  Sweet little thing.  :)

Thanks for a fun day!  xoxo

xoxo,

will you be our valentine? (phoenix children’s photographer)

February 14, 2010

“I don’t understand why Cupid was chosen to represent Valentine’s Day.  When I think about romance, the last thing on my mind is a short, chubby toddler coming at me with a weapon.”

~Author Unknown

Happy Valentine’s Day!  Last night we had a little incident.  Jackson was a bit confused, and it just broke my heart.  You see, in the month leading up to Christmas we had Nemo the Elf staying with us so he could watch over Jack and Addie and then report back to Santa.  When Christmas was over, Bob thought it best that Jack’s “buddies” (his tattered, extremely well loved bear that he has had since he was born) go back to the North Pole with Nemo.  After a few days and seeing that Jack very much missed his Buddies, I decided that he should return.  :)   Fast forward to last night, when I hear Jack sobbing in his bed.  When I went to his room, he said, “Maybe if I hide buddies behind my back or in the bathroom Cupid won’t take him!”

I guess Cupid, in the mind of a three year old, is much like Nemo the Elf.  Apparently he takes children’s lovies.  How sad!  He broke my heart hearing his concern and saddness.  I of course reassured him that no one would take his beloved buddies and that he would be with us for some time.  All was well, and Jack happily asked where Cupid was this morning.

Happy Valentine’s Day, folks.  :)

darling baby girl (scottsdale newborn photographer)

January 25, 2010

“The child must know that she is a miracle, that since the beginning of the world there hasn’t been, and until the end of the world there will not be, another child like her.”

~Pablo Casals

This precious baby girl was just so wonderful to photograph.  She has the most beautiful brown eyes and just loves to look around.  As you walk back toward her gorgeous nursery, you pass by a wall of large photographs of her two year old big bro as a baby.  Oh.my.goodness.  It could be the same baby!  I love that!  It is the same way with my two little ones–they are almost exactly the same age apart, and sometimes I swear I am looking at Addison’s baby photo when in fact it is Jackson’s!  This little sweetheart will snooze in style–her nursery is an elegant mix of classic, modern and vintage.  A room fit for a princess.   It was such a pleasure to meet this wonderful family and to photograph such a sweet, darling baby girl.  Thank you for opening your home to me.  You are truly blessed!  Enjoy your sneak peeks!
