The Return Customer

I am happy to have repeat business, it must mean I did something right the first time. It's been a week for that, I have another repeat customer lined up in a few days and I am all too happy for it. It is fun to see someone other than my own child change and make their way in this big crazy world.

Here is Anna Grace present day:
Family Portraits




Wicked cute as we say up here in the North Country, and a very eager model, as long as she get fed in a timely manner, as was the case both times we have photographed together. Her mom is in both of these shots and a special thanks to her for being one of my first customers and as of right now my latest. This was Sweet Anna Grace when last we met:

The Little People

Jordan and Joshua

Following kids around is just plain fun. I don't want a niche in photography because I really love every aspect of it but I think I get the most joy out of kid pictures. My own is of course gets the majority of the face time, but thankfully there are other doting parents out there that like to see their kids "in the act"

In the act of playing; you heard it here first when someone coins the phrase and writes a book.

Anyway, above is Jordan she stared in the 2009 Portland Firefighter Children's Burn Foundation Calendar. Long name, great cause. I produced the Calendar for the foundation, unfortunately it didn't do as well as it should have. Hallmark's got the corner on the monthly cuteness, didn't like us trying to muscle in.

Here she is in the Calendar:

Well, here is to the little people and the in the act of playing!
