Isabella – 10 days

elma — Wed, 03 Aug 2011 22:19:52 +0000

When I saw a message in my inbox from Isabella’s mom, I thought we’d be booking a 1 year session for her daughter whom I shot as a newborn last year. Imagine my surprise to see a request for another newborn session 13.5 months after our first newborn session! It was a pleasure to see mom and dad again and Isabella’s big sister! She has grown into a very cute dark eyed, curly haired little toddler. Both girls are adorable and it was great to capture this special time in this family’s life.

Congratulations again M&B! Your girls are beautiful and I enjoyed my time with you all.

Girls Night Out

My daughter Amanda was invited by friends to join them for their school banquet. The weather was COLD, incredibly windy and honestly – just not good for a photo shoot! We managed a few shots (and warmed up in the van in between) and I’m glad they turned out so well.

Thanks for being such troopers girls and good balancing on those heels Amanda xx

The Twins are One

Remember these two?

Well they’re almost One now! Seeing how babies grow and change in the first year never gets old to me; it’s simply amazing. You can really see hints of their personality in the images too.

He’s One

Time flies. It never ceases to amaze me how much children grow and change in the first year. Love all his expressions but him smiling on Dad’s shoulders is priceless!

a little mischievous here I think

somewhat perplexed (he’s thinking ‘what is my mother doing?’ LOL)

good times

chillin with Dad (while mesmerized by the jet ski)

One Happy Boy!

I have never had a newborn smile more! Just adorable. Here is ‘J’, 12 days fresh. He has 2 older brothers who are equally as handsome. I am booked solid through till the end of August, but I could not resist a newborn, plus this guy comes into this world to a very special mom . I’m glad we were able to work in this session and that we were able to get so many images of this precious guy!

Graduation

The other week my daughter Amanda, graduated 8th grade. It was a wonderful evening and ceremony ~~can’t believe she starts highschool this fall~~! Amanda and her friends have grown up so much these past 8 years, it’s hard to know where the time went! It was my great pleasure to shoot these girls before the ceremony and be a part of such a great evening and memory…..

Siblings

I know what you’re thinking – this is a good-looking group.. they are, but they are also great sports and a darn nice bunch of siblings. Thanks guys – I love the results from our shoot. Hopefully you feel the same!

To the outside world, we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were/ We know each other’s hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. We outside the touch of time. Carla Ortega

Smithville Christian High School – SDCH

elma — Tue, 19 May 2009 03:40:13 +0000

I’ve been shooting at Smithville Christian High over the last few weeks taking images for their promotional material. I’ve had the pleasure of capturing Boys Soccer, the cast of the drama production (The Mouse that Roared), Chapel, Creative Arts evening, the Community Choir as well as regular student life. I’d like to tell you that it makes me feel like a teen again – but nope. I have enjoyed it though!
