.....and it WAS COLD!! This Michigan weather is ridiculous!! If I had a three wished I may be completely tempted to splurg and ask for warmer weather. Aren't you too needing a bit of a warm up here (those of you that are from another state...and esp those that live in warmer states you are exempt to answer!!)? BUT---through it all Corena and Ryan were complete troopers not to mention no whining at all about the weather...and look at how sexy she looks...'between the teeth chattering'. They are the first wedding of mine this year and I look forward to starting the season with a BANG!!

And he is just as cute as can be....and what a handsome lil guy too!! He is just growing leaps and bounds and I have to say that his mom has her work cut out for her...he is one ACTIVE boy. I LOVED IT!!! Now....when he is up and walking that is when the REAL fun is....I really will perfect my run and shoot method! Here is few images to peek at....

This year I joined the Fenton Area Chamber of Commerce and with that I decided to be in their expo. Alot of business's were there and alot of people came through. I talked with many, many area people of all ages...young and old and even some lil babies! I gave out special bags with fortune cookies in them that held VERY special discounts and most everyone couldn't love more the booth that my husband made for me (I couldn't agree more with that as well!!!) Here is some pics of the booth and the lovely pictures I had so proudly displayed! Maybe some of my clients will see some of their images up.....if you want to come take a better look-see of these images come to my office...I am proudly displaying them here as well until the new studio is up.

Just checking out this new site that lets me upload my images and plays them in a flashy and fun way!! I am at the PPM convention this past weekend and until tomorrow. I am learning so much stuff I can't wait to share!

It has come to my attention to MANY that I am a major slacker on this blog. I COULD sit here and type that I will have a New Years Resolution to post more on this blog but for fear of failure (which may be why I take on things I know I can conquer) I will NOT claim to do this. What I can do is to do BETTER!! More info, more picture posting and more specials. Here at Creative Studios Photography I feel that this year will be a HUGE year!! I will be doing more weddings, more limited mini sessions...and hopefully at the end of this summer I can spill the BIGGEST news of all (that is all I can say for now!). So to end this I am posting a few pics of my Megan. I will explain where and how these came about in a later post..... I like to be a tease!!

Well...weather had a part in that but this is my last Senior session this year and boy was it cold. But look how well this lovely lady looks in it! She looks like a little scandanavian beauty!! Her mom came with us and not only was this a wonderful shoot, but seeing how well their relationship between eachother was a joy. Here is your sneek-peek "N"....ENJOY!

Not only was "A" a ton of smiles and just as sweet as can be; but the day was pretty gloomy, threatening rain, and all the while she was just having fun!! Walking downtown Fenton you never know what will happen or where we can get what shot...I love the sporatic, think-on-your-toes type of photography. But what I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the most is when my clients have faith in me. They let me have creative control and just let me have my way with them...so to speak!!! This was MY complete pleasure hanging and shooting with ya "A"...here is your sneek-peek!

Here you go guys.... sorry for the wait; but I am sure it is all worth it.
