Playdate anyone???

With the warm weather approaching, and for some us its already here, our little ones are begging to go to parks, the zoo, or just in our backyards to play, play, and play!! Playdates, and other spontaneous fun-filled adventures are a fun way to gain social interaction for our children. But have you ever been to the park, and your child makes friends with the other children… the other moms realize that you all get together more often, and you go to your purses rummaging through old receipts to use as paper to write down your contact information…only to realize that you don’t have a pen either. Business people have business cards, high school seniors have 411 or rep cards….adults have calling cards…well, kids should have “mommy cards” {daddies too!!}…
These fun little cards are totally custom made….the inspiration is to create adorable little mommy cards, with matching cute greeting cards to announce the beginning of spring!!! Contact me for some playdate fun!!



rain days are fun…

Rain day, again!!! Get the kids dressed up and do the session anyway….if your session date falls on a ‘rain day’, let’s go shoot anyway… {then we’ll reschedule another day full of sun and springtime flowers}…call me today to schedule your ‘rain day’ session!!!!

a celebration with Cinderella…

At the end of January, we celebrated Maddie’s 5th birthday party.  Every year we throw a birthday bash for her, and every year it turns more and more into a huge glorious production.  This year, I decided to bring in entertainment {for my sanity, although, it was still totally crazy here!!}.  I met up with networking friend, Jenny Waters, owner of the Social Butterfly and co-owner of the Cinderella Company to discuss my intentions and plan of action for Maddie’s party.  We mutually decided on Cinderella for storytelling, singing, magic and face painting….and a coronation ceremony for Princess Maddie.  WOW!!!!  When Cinderella came to door, Maddie was more than surprised….she was totally enchanted!!!!  With 17 knights, princess maidens and little blossoms running wild with sword fights, makeovers, play doh, food, and candy…Cinderella stole the show and bestowed a whole bit of her magic upon them….

Thank you Cinderella…..as Maddie said on her delightful day, “This is the BEST Party EVER!!!”.

Spring is soon…

Although Mr. Ground Hog noted a little bit more winter, flowers are sprouting and blooming here in the San Francisco Bay Area. Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, as well as St. Patrick’s Day and Easter…
For a limited time, you’ll be able to receive benefits with your photo packages if you book your session on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays mornings. Contact me for more details!!!!
