The Penrod Family

The love this family has for each other is contagious.  They just had so much fun together during this shoot and I loved watching them interact with one another.  The siblings (all SEVEN of them) were so loving towards each other and it really touched me.  Thanks for letting me photograph you guys Penrod family.  By the way, Jen the mama was my awesome doula for the birth of Addy.  :)  

The boys vs. the girls.  

Brotherly love.   

There is a whole series of pictures of them playing with each other that I love.  

I then told the kids to come and hug their parents.

Dad got tackled and thrown a few feet to the ground.  I screamed!  They laughed.  It was a fun moment.  

Gay Family

It was great photographing the Gay Family again.  They were one of the first families I ever photographed when I first started this photography adventure a little over a year ago.  Their kids are all little sweet hearts and the oldest even picked a flower for me.  :)  This was the first session of a morning packed full of mini sessions.  I had never done mini sessions before and I have to say I LOVED it!  It was so fun and I got lots of great shots in only 30 minutes.

Denney Family!

Meet the Denney family.  Or maybe you already did last year?  They have three adorable boys with a baby girl on the way.  How fun!  Go check out Christy's Facebook page and like it because she has the best recipes ever.  

Fall Sessions are Here!

Okay guys, I am back!  I had my beautiful baby girl Addelyn Rae on September 7 and we are in love.  :)

I have very limited days available this fall for photo sessions so I am going to do something new... mini sessions!  It will be perfect for family shoots just in time for the Holiday Season and I am so excited!  To simplify things I will be providing high resolution files (included in the photo shoot cost) and will no longer offer professional prints or Christmas cards.  If there is a high demand I may open up another date, but for now I am going to offer two dates with four 30 minute sessions each.  

MINI session price: $150 all inclusive

Includes...

30 minute photo shoot 

10-12 high resolution files

Full copyright privileges (can do whatever you want with the images including using the images to print christmas cards)

Session 1: October 22 (NATURAL LOCATION- to see the location click here)

8:00, 8:35, 9:10, 9:45 

Session 2: November 5 (URBAN LOCATION- I haven't chosen the urban location yet but to see an example of an urban location see my shoot here) 

9:00, 9:35, 10:10, 10:45 

$50 due at time of booking to hold your spot (non-refundable) and $100 due on day of shoot.  

For inspiration on what to wear go here.  

An extra $10 per person (normally $20 pp for full session) is required for any group over 4.  

Please arrive 10 minutes early and feel free to bring any photo props you may want to use.  

Unfortunately, if you are late for your time we cannot extend your session because another family will be arriving for the next time slot.  

If you prefer to do a full session instead of a mini session just contact me for possible dates and I will accept a limited number of families for full sessions.  For pricing of a full session go here.  

To reserve your spot contact me at heidimcleod83@yahoo.com ASAP.  

Happy fall! 

Mongillo Family

I have been terrible about keeping up with this photography blog.  I haven't blogged about the last three sessions, and after this post I know I won't have anymore sessions anytime soon because I am due in 11 days! :)  I will keep you posted on my availability for this fall.  I have already promised spots to five families and depending on how busy life is with two kids I may or may not do more sessions.  I am considering doing mini sessions so I can see more families in one day.  Okay, enough business talk, and on to the pictures! :)

Did these guys have fun at the beach or what?!?

Little Lennox

Thanks for being patient waiting for these pictures!  My CF card reader broke in the middle of editing these pictures, but it came in the mail today so we are back on track! :)  Lennox was a little explorer around my new favorite location!  He was absolutely precious!

Baby Brody One Year Portraits

You can see Brody at 6 months here.  He has grown up and is still just as cute.  He has the biggest brown eyes that reflect light so well!  Happy Birthday Brody!

If you click on the image below to view the full resolution file, you can look in his eyes and see me taking the picture, and mom and dad cheering Brody on!

Isn't he cute in his Hawaiian wrap?  

He had such good manners eating his cake!
