Metropolitan Imageworks

Annnndddd here’s little Gem-Gem as a not so little babe anymore!  She is two and as cute as ever! Chit-chatting and interacting and she LOVES to show off her little tongue.  We got some holiday pics, family pics and of course a ton of Gemma and her little girl antics.  See you again in 6 more months!!!

It’s been an amazing journey with the M family, one that is not completely over yet.  I’m banking I will hang on until both Toni and Bianca get married!!!  From photographing their mom and dad’s wedding four years ago to photographing Toni’s first year milestones and now completing Bianca’s first year milestones, I honestly have become a part of their family.  Not to mention that mom and dad are pretty darn fun to just hang out with and we always find ourselves laughing together.  I cannot believe what a little lady Bianca has become and she is indeed the ringleader of all the antics between her and older sis’ Toni.  I just love the way they interact and of course I am in awe of how gorgeous and well spoken little Miss Toni is now at three years of age!  Of course not that I expected any less from her parents!  Now I will have to find excuses to see them every few months instead of just waiting until the annual portrait session.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart for entrusting me to creating your photographic memories for so long!!!

I love photographing newborns.  They’re so sweet and sleep part of the session and you can pose them pretty easily.  I had previously photographed Mom and Dad’s wedding in 2010 and now I am back to photograph their lovely new addition, Adelyn.  She was indeed a very sweet subject for her very first Metropolitan Imageworks portrait session.

Here’s my friend Maddox, back on the blog for her 9 month portrait session.  I have this little munchkin trained, I swear each time I put my camera to my eye she looked straight at me grinned!!! Too cute!  Can’t wait to see her again in February for her one year session.  I’m excited to see what antics another three months brings.

See how Maddox hams it up for my camera?!

Even Grandma & Grandpa joined in the fun!

Still cracks me up!

Look at this lovely little specimen!  I love working with newborns because they are so cute and squishy!  I was honored to photograph this little girl, as I had previously photographed her mom and dad’s wedding in 2010 and I like to carry on the photography traditions with clients.  Little Sienna was just perfect for her very first Metimages portrait session and she even went along with a few outfit changes.  I can see it already that she will be a daddy’s girl!

Meet two week old Mildrid!  She was such a little smooshie newborn during her very first portrait session and I cannot wait to follow her milestones for the next year as well.  Older brother Coby has been a fixture on the Metimages blog since his debut in October of 2009.  We all agree that this time around, Mom and Dad are total newborn baby pro’s!

OK, while I didn’t photograph Adelyn’s parent’s wedding, I had pleasure of photographing her older fur-brother a few years ago at one of my ‘Furry Fotos’ days and I photographed two of Adelyn’s aunt’s weddings and have another aunt booked for 2012 . . . so that must count for something right!?  She has some of the prettiest blue eyes that just pop and was a real trooper during all of the outfit changes.  I just loved watching her run around the park and grace me with her smiles!  Again another perfect fall day!

I am in love.  Little Isla had major stranger anxiety when I first arrived, but it doesn’t matter because I am completely and utterly in love with her little self and her little antics and her little snuggles.  I’m positive she spent more time in my lap than in front of my camera and I am a-ok with that!  She is my new bestie!  I’m also sensing a theme here . . . her mom and dad were married in 2008 and :ahem: their wedding was photographed by yours truly!

Check out another cutie-patootie baby boy of former Metimages wedding clients!  Mom and Dad were married in 2008 and I am delighted to continue working with them as their family photographer!  Will is a little stud, check out that flipped collar!  He was a little serious in the beginning but soon warmed up. And I have to admit, we timed the fall photos wonderfully – the colors were phenomenal and the Indian Summer temps were just perfect!
