It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since I took Mikayla’s newborn pictures! She is now walking, does not like my camera, loves Mickey and can’t wait for Santa to come. It’s fun and exciting to see the changes and watch the little ones grow up.

Anya won a family portrait shoot I donated at an Open House, I met with them at their home for the portrait session.

You can see the love of a father and son, the love of a mother and daughter, the love of a wonderful family!


Hi Nancy!
We viewed our photo session CD this morning, and we are very impressed and happy!
You did such a great job! I personally especially liked the pictures where you played with colors and light! They are so unique!
And you were so right about pictures where my mom is laughing – they came "real" and "natural".
So thank you very much once again for this wonderful photo session experience!

Papson – Family Portraits
Yesterday, on my way home from visiting family in State College, Pennsylvania, I popped over to see a dear friend (I can’t call her an old friend because she is young enough to be my daughter); it was so nice to catch up on what’s been going on in our lives and I got a chance to meet her adorable son Caden.
Of course I brought my camera (don’t leave home without it).
Look at those blue eyes and cute smile. So sweet!!
