New arrival

Hi Everyone,  Sorry it's been so long since my last post.  I've been so busy this month but that's a good thing.  I was fortunate enough to shoot pictures of this family.  Clinton and his big sis Lucy sure are some cuties!! They are such a nice family and I'm looking forward to seeing these gorgeous kiddos as they grow up. We did this photo session in their house because it was just too cold for newborn outdoor photography. They happened to have this old chest that matched the cloth that I had brought with me to wrap their little angel in.  How crazy is that?  It was just meant to be.  I just worked a little magic and heightened the colors a bit. What a beautiful family. So lucky to have met them.

Little Gabby

This is my little cousin.  I snapped a few quick photos of her in her Aunt's back yard in Phoenix a couple of years ago.  Nothing fancy, no props,  just plain beautiful.  I didn't know Photoshop all that great like I do now but it came out OK. Gabby is such a sweet little girl and it was my pleasure to get to know her a little better.  Another perk with my business. I remember her mamma when she was just a baby.  

I had the pleasure of photographing this little cutie the other day and also my little guy. We took these at the Union Station. What a great place. It was a fun afternoon that ended with a nice lunch and time for me and her mom to chat and relax while the kids played a while. One thing I really have enjoyed about my business is having the ability to make some great friends along the way. Here are a couple more ideas for home made Valentine's Day cards. 

Valentines Day Special

I went out today on a quick photo shoot with some friends. It was such a fun time! I made this home made Valentines Day card for my youngest son. These ones are keepers and won't be thrown away. They can be printed for pennies. I'm running a Mini Session special, $75,  until Feb 2, 2014.  E-mail me if you are interested gomezdora9@gmail.com  You'll get the DVD with 6 edited pictures and printing privileges so you can print as many as you need for family and friends. You can also print larger sizes with this DVD. Words can be added such as: Happy Valentines Day, From: Their Name, 2014 etc. For kids and those that are kids at heart. Don't forget your pets and your family too. 
Love & Peace.     

Happy New Year

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays this year.  It's time to get back to work... if you want to call it that.  I took these pictures of this handsome little guy a few weeks ago. I am so blessed to meet such a great family and I wish them all the best for the New Year. Little Isaac is not quite 1 yet but getting close so his Mommy and Daddy wanted to capture this milestone in his life. I'm not going to release all of his pictures just yet because the others are a birthday surprise. It was my pleasure to get to know this sweet little baby and capture this special time of his life for his family. All my best to you and your family Isaac. You handsome little GQ man!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays

This might be my last post before Christmas.  I'm planning on doing some cooking and wrapping the rest of the presents.   But more importantly, I'm going to enjoy the real reason for the season and reflect on why we celebrate this holiday.  Spend time with family and try to relax a little in the process.  I think it's so sad that we have become a country where we are so stressed because we might have forgotten one little gift or one little detail that we think we can't live without.  One fun thing I did this winter was take some pictures of the cutest little guy.  I'll make sure to post them soon. Here is picture of a pine cone I took in Lake Tahoe. This looks like Christmas to me.  Wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.  Hope you have a blessed New Year.  Be safe and stay warm. 

Wish I was here right now...

I'm home editing old pictures. Don't get me wrong I LOVE to edit but we are snowed in so here I sit editing because I'm a big chicken and not too crazy about driving on icy roads. I was invited to three parties today. BTW, Thank you ladies for the invite, I really would have loved to have made all three.  Here is an old picture of Derek and Daddy, not sure the location? FL maybe. "Mini Me" Doesn't it look nice a warm? Any warm beach would be nice right now. I love the ocean and can't wait to visit it again. I might even have to dust off my swimming suit this time. I added some puffy clouds, depth and color.  Before and After.
