…New babies and the Hot List…

…Little Julianna and Claire were the sweetest little babies.  Both with massive heads of hair and lots of chub.  I just adore photographing newborns…the sounds they make, the silly little faces, the fact that I get to sweat off 5 pounds…lol  My studio is literally turned into a sweat shop.  I just love photographing newborns they way they are…without all the “props” and distracting backgrounds….just pure babies…

Meet Claire 7 days new…

On another note the voting for the Fox 2 News Hot List is going on.  If you think I fit the bill please vote for me here http://ktvi.cityvoter.com/untamed-heart-photography/biz/529560

Have a great week!

MJC and the Mentorshop…

…so I seriously can’t wait to show you all of the AMAZING photos that I was blessed to get to capture while in chilly but wonderful Florida for the Matilda Jane Clothing Spring line shoot.  I just can’t wait…but alas…Denise would kill me if I showed you before she did.  Afterall they are her works of art…I just put a little dance in their step…so to speak, but let me tell you…LOVE LOVE LOVE what she did this season. You know what else???  I even got to see little glimpses of Fall 2010..yeah. neener-neener-neener…

Also…I updated the Mentorshop website.  There are still spots open for the June Mentorshop.  All remaining spots are now $1000.  email me at mlh40804@yahoo.com if you would like to join the other fabulous attendees!  Trust me…it’s gonna be good! 

Anywho…now for the good stuff…

…you would think…

going to Florida for a spring shoot would be perfect…

you would think…

it would be 65 degrees… not 35

you would think…

this would ruin our good time…(not a friggin chance)

you would think…

all the little models would complain complain complain…(not so)

We had the absolute best time…hands down!  Lynette cooked some amazing food.  Carla brought some visual treats…and Denise got the most amazing house my eyes have ever beheld…too bad I’m a dork and didn’t take one single picture of it.

Well, we did venture down to the beach our last day to just kick around and have some fun.  Too bad it was 28 degrees and within 5 minutes my face was frozen in what appeared to be a grimace( half smile half painful frown)

I did snap some pics of the kids while we were running trying to stay warm.  I hate to run…but I seriously could have ran 4 miles without stopping…my legs were numb…but alas my lungs were frozen…maybe next time

Serioulsy though…I am in awe of Denise’s sheer creative ability.  She is often imitated but never duplicated.  Just wait till you see this Spring line…oh and the women’s…TO DIE FOR…

Thanks Denise, David, Joe, Gabe(who now has a crush on Stella), Lynette, Kylee, Sam, and Kayla…we had the BEST time! 

and on a bitter note…I still think I should have won Apples to Apples…my word came in second more times than you all won combined…;)

oh but if it werent so cold then stella couldnt have worn her super cute jacket and that would have just been a shame :)
i have a friend trying to become a trunk holder person thingy right now so i can get my hands all over these clothes before my girl gets too big :(

I promise that FL is much warmer USUALLY. Tomorrow it will get up to 70! I need to play apples to apples next time.

Denise 

competitive you girls are…good thing I was sleeping!!

 ( Jan 14th, 2010 8:08 pm)
Kayla 

Michelle Im up for a re-match anytime…Although David did cheat a little and I think Sam will agree. You cant throw the “Job” card out there. NOT FAIR.

 ( Jan 14th, 2010 12:25 pm)
David 

I accept your invitation for an Apples to Apples rematch. I found it very easy to beat all of you.

 ( Jan 13th, 2010 3:43 pm)

Lynette 

I had a fabulous time with you and the fam! Can’t wait to play again… stay warm!

 ( Jan 13th, 2010 2:50 pm)

I hate it when you expect warm weather and it turns out to be colder. Can’t wait to see the photos, missy! :-)

…2010…

Happy New Year!  I hope everyone had a more eventful New Year’s Eve than I did.  I sat around in pajama’s, watched Angels & Demons with Tom Hanks( it is still hard to watch him in serious movies after seeing BIG 20 years ago), was attacked by my fireplace (holes in the carpet to prove it), and forced myself to turn on the countdown at 15 seconds till.  The moment overcame me though and I lept of the couch and started jumping around and screaming…my poor son thought I had lost my mind(SERIOUSLY)…I then realized he has never rang in a New Year before, he’s always slept through them, so he just didn’t know that is what EVERYONE does at midnight no matter where you are in the world.  Now he knows.

Well the New Year came in with a slump, but 2009 went out with a bang!! Stella was my last session of 2009, actually on December 31st.  You know she had me at…her name…but she was not going to stop there.  She slept the ENTIRE session…didn’t even wake up when I got her undressed.  Then she actually giggled at me. I was arranging her in her slumber and touched her foot and I kid you not she let out the sweetest little giggle I have ever heard coupled with the cutest little newborn grin ever…I could NOT BELIEVE it…

I thought…eh…newborn fluke…sometimes they just do crazy stuff.  Well I got all my shots and said “okay…let’s wake the little doll up and get some open eye shots” and I began to talk to her.  That 9 day old baby opened her eyes and started smiling at me while I was talking to her…like a 3 month old…I have the picture to prove it…Meet the most happy newborn I have ever seen…Stella…

I wish everyone a happy, healthy, blessed 2010.  This year focus on the little things you can do to make our world a better place…

omg!!! we had a fireplace/hole in the rug incident NYE too!! nothing like being upstairs and hearing your kids screaming “FIRE FIRE!!” thankfully the only physical damage was a burn mark in the rug …and the tree, which was 2 feet away didnt go up in flames.
