Finishing Up...

Hello- we are headed to the magical world of DISNEY on sat! We will be back on wed. I will have my computer and if there is wireless at our hotel- I will be checking email (sporadically)

Some news: My website is up and at 'em. I just have some details to clear up and add. If you want to check it out, go ahead. It is a simple template that will hold me until I go "fancy" It is cute. http://www.picturelilyphotography.net/
Let me know what you think.

Just something cute to show:



This is made by a friend from college and her mother. They own a company called The Dizzy Dragonfly. ADORABLE stuff! I have a couple friends that I want to feature on the site- I promise I will do it soon!!!! This is well priced, I think- depending on the size- $25-$35. They have boy shortalls, too (my downfall!)

Tea for a Princess...

Here is Jordan, a vivacious, beautiful - about to be - 3 yr old. Boy, she gave me a workout! This child has got some personality! In a good way, I might add. I just love her big, brown eyes. In addition to this adorable child, her room was amazing. I wanted to stay the night. Mom, Dad and Grandma- we got tons of terrific shots. I cannot wait for you to see the rest of them.

Baby Planner...

Here is Noah, an adorable 3 mo old, who will be with PictureLily for (at least :)) the next 9 mo of his life! This doll had his mom and nana working hard- trying to keep him awake. He wanted to have droopy eyes on us. But, we prevailed and got some gorgeous shots. Hope you guys like them- thank you so much for calling me-Sister and Nana joined in on the fun!

Nevaeh is HEAVEN Spelled Backwards...

And that is where I was when I met this little sweetie, Nevaeh! This is her first shoot (besides being in her mommy's tummy) bc she has been home for less than a week. Nice and fresh- how I like them! They stay curled up and are so much easier to pose. Allright, Mommy and Nana, here is a peek-

My Crazy Weekend...

We headed up to Myrtle Beach, SC on thurs and got home late last night. Not only did my phone battery die (did not bring charger) but we got home and our answering machine was off from a power outage! So, if I missed a call from you- that is what was up. So sorry...


We had some family from VA come down to MB (where my parents and fam live) we got together and had a blast! Then, on sat we took a cruise on the river (without kids!) and parked at Sandy Island for the day. What a great trip...



Here is my cousin, Max, who is the same age as my Morgan. He is a doll. Love his eyes and lips!!

Max and Morgan were so cute!

And the crew on the boat. It was nicknamed the Beckham/Bell Booze cruise, but we had some teens with us, who behaved themselves quite well! Such a good time! And would believe I cannot find the self timer on my camera!!! So, I am not in the pic...

WOOO-HOOOO

Lily is officially in Pre-K! She walked in her classroom with a big smile on her face after an easy morning of getting ready. Now, I know that everyday will not be this great, but the past, um, 3 hrs have been bliss! She woke up with a smile on her face at 6:30 and asked if the sun was up. WHen I set out her clothes, she asked me why she was getting dressed- I told her for school and she said, "NOW?" She was thinking it was still night. I am guessing she was pretty proud of her outfit bc she told me, "People will think I look cool." How cute??!!! I am so proud of how well she did. Now, I have got some work to do!!!
Here is Lily(right) and her best friend Morgan (Riley)(left) as we call her

WARNING, WILL CAUSE BABY FEVER...

Check out Jasper! This "little" 9 pounder stole my heart! He flippin' slept the whole time. We were amazed at how well he did with our constant postion changes. The little guy's fave was outside, naked on a fuzzy blanket. He stayed asleep forever. Oh, and cannot forget PRECIOUS, 6 yr old bro, Noah. What a pair these 2 will be in a couple of years!! Nice to meet you guys-

A Cute Summer Pic...

Here are my 2 at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens. Fun, neat place. A little on the hot/sunny side in the kids area, though! I really would like to go back and explore a little more. If your kids can be entertained easily (not have games, etc) I recommend the gardens. They also have champagne in the gardens on certain evenings- really cool! Very good sandwiches at the little eatery. Anyways, Lily and Morgan- my wild thing and my sensitive one!

Cute Shower Invite...

I came up with the cutest shower invite! Minus a few details, here it is-

Ps- we did a 10x20 storyboard for her and having it framed in the Stables, Black frame- GORGEOUS! SHe is soooo excited to put it on her walls! I will post a pic of it when we get it put together. This is the second I have done so far and I think it will be a client fave!!!
