Professional Photo Shoot

I blogged yesterday about having a professional photo shoot done by our personal photographer Marijanel Knight in order to celebrate Monster reaching 6 months old!

Of course an hour worth of photos takes some time to edit, so we don't have all of them yet, but Marijanel is amazing at giving a "taste" of the shoot to her clients to make the wait a little easier.

Here are a couple of photos from Saturday (Unfortunately, most of you are already on my facebook page, so you've already seen them), enjoy!!

Please visit Marijanel's website here if you're interesting in learning more about her!

A Photographer for Life

Hubbs and I got married just over a year ago, and one thing that wasn't difficult about the process was choosing a photographer.

Some couples don't share the same enthusiasm when it comes to having professional photos at their wedding. We decided early on in the planning process that professional photos were a necessity because in the end after the flowers die, and the food has been eaten the photos are all you have left.

We were referred to Marijanel Knight by my brother in law who had worked with her husband. When I saw the photos on her website and met with her in person the decision became easy.

We had to have her (in the most unstalkeresque, non creepy way possible).

What I didn't know was that I was choosing my photographer for life. Marijanel has gone out of her way to be creative, inventive, and accommodating for all three photo shoots she's done for us.

Just Saturday she did a mini family photo shoot with us in celebration of Monster turning 6 months on the 6th. She traveled to us from her home 2 hours away, and was understanding when our 6 month old was all but cooperative. Thank you MJ!

Photos coming soon!

Monthly Photo Shoots

I love to take photos. I wish to someday become an amateur photographer in my spare time. That is if I acquire an amazing camera, skills, and spare time. This inner passion of digitalizing every day and memory has sparked a monthly routine.

Every month on the date Monster was born (the 6th) we have our own personal photo shoot, just me, him, my pug-kid and sometimes the Hubbs. I hope to be able to make a collage of the first year of his life to hang on my wall, because everyone knows infants change so quickly!

Today was Monster's 5th month Birthday and so we celebrated by taking photos, and having plenty of laughs with LOLA on the floor for tummy time. I've edited a couple -- I love you picnik- enjoy!!
