You have to meet Heather...

who is my new assistant. She just started last week. She is a Mom of 2 kids: a boy and a girl. One is a pre-teen and the other is a teenager.

This is a completely new field for her....she is use to working as a preschool teacher. But, she will get situated very soon and I'm sure she will catch on quickly. As you can imagine, she is good with young children....a must in my business!

I think that you'll love her! Hopefully, She will let me do a portrait of her....and maybe even her family...so that I can post it.

She definately looks like a model...

Jennifer was in for her maternity portraits recently and we had a lot of fun during the session! Her husband was there for the beginning, but couldn't have been more antsy to get out of my studio! LOL! Honestly, it wasn't because I was picking on him....He HATES...I REALLY MEAN... HATES his picture taken. But, we did end up getting him to do a few portraits. Jennifer kept saying that she wasn't a model and that I needed to just put her the way I wanted her....but, these came out FANTASTIC! Jennifer, I can't wait for you to see all of them. You are going to love how they turned out! Here are just a few:

We did the shoot at Winthrop Lake and it was a little bit cooler than it had been....So, a perfect morning for pictures. Here are a few of my favorites:
