Sparkle and Shine

Have I ever mentioned how much I love my job? The truth is, I work with the most beautiful people, inside and out. This family welcomed me into their home for a newborn session a while ago (hmmm, I should post that one) and I had the best time working with their beautiful daughters. Celia has such a bright personality (and the most beautiful face). And now it seems little Mira's is coming out too. They must get it from their parents; the nicest bunch of people you'll ever meet. Hope you guys love this sneak preview...super hard to choose images to share! Happy Holidays!

Ready for Baby Sister

I was so excited to be able to photograph Julian and his family again. I shot his Mom while she was pregnant with him and now again while she is pregnant with a baby girl. They are a gorgeous family and so easy to work with. Julian was having a blast jumping around on the bed. He was dancing up a storm. I know he will be such a good big brother. Can't wait to meet the new baby!

Cousins

I had the pleasure of hanging out with some friends and shooting their holiday family portraits. I love these kids! They were so much fun to work with. I think I laughed more than they did. I'm excited for the two new little boys on the way. They will be here soon, so look out for some newborn photos! Can't wait! Happy Holidays guys!

Cinnamon Rolls

That's what I think of when I look at this little guy. Not just sweet, but his little arms and legs were so full of rolls...you just want to take a big bite. Chunky babies are my favorite. He is a total pleasure to work with as usual. Always knows how to work the camera with his smile. And the weird thing is he looks like such a little man...kind of like a baby version of Russell Crowe. Check out the last image...total celeb look alike. :)

This is what he thought of that Santa hat. Couldn't keep it on his head for very long.

Public Service Announcement

The holidays have arrived and it has already been a crazy season here at jMaltbie Photography. I am sure you are likely feeling the crunch too.

I must announce that I am no longer booking any Holiday Sessions for 2007. My schedule filled up rather quickly this year and time constraints will not allow for any further sessions needing Christmas delivery.

If you are interested in booking a session for regular delivery, I still have a select number of sessions available for delivery after the holidays.

In other news, if you take lots of pictures please back up your images. Put them on a disk, print them out. Do whatever you need to do. Just a friendly reminder. You never know what can happen to a computer. You should never trust that your cherished images will be safe forever in your "My Pictures" folder. And that's all I have to say about that.

The Littlest Tiger

I have never seen a cuter Tiger than little Braden! His folks are LSU alma mater and are grooming him for collegiate success already! Its never too late to start right? I had a great time at this session. Trying to get 3 month old Braden's attention while standing atop an igloo cooler was downright dangerous (we didn't have a step ladder), but we survived. I don't think the cooler did though. Oh the things I do for that perfect shot. What a gorgeous family and a beautiful outdoor setting. Hope you guys like these!
