Fall is fast approaching! Soon, the kiddos will be back in school and life will be back to “zooming by” mode! It’s a good time to start thinking about fall family portraits. I currently have only one opening for August (the 10th) and besides that I am booked solid until September 13. If you would like to make arrangements for this fall, please contact me as early as possible so we dont miss anyone! This year the deadline for end of year portraits will be Sunday, November 30th and all print orders MUST be in by Monday, December 8th in order for me to guarantee you receive them in time. Boudoir, maternity, newborn, weddings and anything else without a December deadline will be scheduled as it normally would. Just something to think about for the people who like to plan. ;)
Now, onto summer! LOL Here are a couple shots of what I like to call: ”Daphne’s Front Yard Chronicles.”
Neighbors cat that Daphne calls “titten”
and from earlier today……she thinks its so funny to check herself out in the mirror. Yes, she is wearing boys underwear. She gets them out of Jevin’s drawer (Jevin was NOT in a picture mood today by the way, he has a condition called PCS, aka Photographer’s Child Syndrome. LOL!
and she climbed in my bed and fell asleep for a nap:
Oh and how about the earthquake today!? 5.8 in Chino Hills. I have to admit to saying a not-so-great word and running for the kids. HAHA. Such a chicken. That noise gets me every time! I told the kids to dive under the pool table. Not sure if that is a great plan but that thing is HEAVY and it would take a lot to make that thing collapse!!
