I knew the instant I captured this moment I would adore the image. From her two bottom teeth, to that big smile, and Momma’s pure love and joy. I have a whole new love for Momma images.

And someone thought they couldn’t do the serious face…

This is what happened when we got Momma on the ground. Miss Ducky (our nickname for S) is use to being the star of our photo shoots. I love the way she’s laying back and posing

Another soon-to-be Momma of two. I hadn’t seen this family since way back HERE.

You may have heard me say this a million times, but my favorite part of my job is watching families grow throughout the years. It amazes me. I can’t believe how big their baby boy is. Oh and he is ALL boy. He kept running, falling, and turning to make sure we saw him “I fall in the grass again Daddy”. You can tell he is so loved and SO much fun! The below series just melts my heart.

Did I mention all boy?

Peace and so much love,

Kids, don’t try this at home. He was cracking up the entire time and having a blast. Now that’s some air! I have a feeling someone is going to love roller coasters!

See you soon S family!!!

So much love,

So, what’s been going on in 2011? After some much needed time off for the holidays, I’m currently working on some left over 2010 orders, a wedding from 2010, and then all of my exciting new things for 2011. I can’t wait to share all the locations for the mini sessions this year! Soon…very soon.

I promise there will lots of fun things to share and write soon, but first I have to share something I’m EXTREMELY excited about. Drum roll please….

I’ve gone through and picked my favorites of my favorite images (please note that not ALL of my sessions are represented. Not even all of my favorites! Trust me…that was hard.) throughout the year and put a fun little slideshow together. Oh, but this is no ordinary slideshow. This slideshow is very very very special. VERY. Hidden in this slideshow, at the very end, is a big SURPRISE. A HUGE SURPRISE. Like if you miss out on this, you will be the lady in the store that snubbed Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman and I’ll be saying you made a big mistake…BIG…HUGE. Yes…I know it’s a stretch, but I just keep hearing Julia Roberts in my head saying “Big. Huge”.

So much love,

UPDATE: Okay…I have tried and tried and tried, but it’s just not letting me embed this slideshow into the blog post. Technology and I have NOT been getting along the last couple days. Soooo….to view the slideshow please go to

I love that this business has been built mostly on word of mouth. I love this because I love my clients…which means I will probably love their friends and family. That’s the case with the M family. I knew instantly that I would love them. That grew even more when I read about how much they love each other and who they are as a family and that Dad is the entertainer. So, you can imagine how happy I was when I met them. One of the biggest reasons I love what I do is that I get to watch families interact and be themselves. I loved watching Miss S priss and spin in her beautiful dress and beautify Daddy with her very own hat. I loved watching her love on Momma and talk about how she was going to be a good big sister. I loved watching her race Daddy and him showing that he is truly the entertainer in the family. I just loved it all. Every bit of it. All of this in a mini session…

Peace and much love,

Cilla

Aren’t they a beautiful family!?! Ms. L has the best jokes. I wish I could remember them because they are really hilarious

And a beautiful couple…

Now, what you’ve been waiting for.

Fate brought them together when, after they both graduated from UK, T moved in right next door to her future one and only. Been together ever since, he a HUGE UK basketball fan and she the self proclaimed quiter one who loves to read and decorate. It was only fitting that when I asked D to “whisper sweet nothings” in T’s ear, he talked about the UK game!!! That may be my favorite topic yet.

Needless to say, I absolutely can’t wait for baby girl to get here. I am sure she will be just as beautiful as her parents!

How did I miss the giant billboard of Cinderella and Prince Charming? One of those happy accidents

That’s right! Our very popular mini sessions that are normally offered twice a year, are now being offered once a month! Now you’ll have the option of a Signature Session or a Monthly Mini Session. These Mini Sessions will be held in various locations in Central KY (one set location per session) on set dates.

Please click HERE for more information. Make sure to check out  the calendar HERE. 

The very first date being March 20th and the popular Boyd’s Orchard minis on April 24th.
Of course, Signature Sessions will remain the ultimate custom photography experience. It’s hard to believe, but spring sessions are already booking up!  If you have a date in mind for a session, it is a good idea to book as soon as possible to insure your spot is held, both for Signature Sessions and Mini Sessions.

Don’t you love meeting those people who can really do anything they set their mind to? I honestly don’t think I’ve met anyone as talented as D. I didn’t realize just how talented until I made it to their home. Let’s see…both D and A are engineers; D decorates cakes and is VERY VERY good at it; she has quite the photographic eye; she had a large role in designing their amazing kitchen from scratch; and not to mention the beautiful interior design in their home. I’m sure there’s many many more that I didn’t learn of that day, but I have to say, I was very impressed. Especially when I left with four yummy cupcakes and told that I should let her know when I need a chocolate fix (Can I put you on speed dial?) 

{Insert subliminal message to all clients to have cupcakes for me at every session.}

I’m sure little Mr. A is going to be so talented like his momma and dad. He will be here so soon and everyone can finally find out what his name will be. I love that D and A have kept his name a secret. Friends and family know it will start with an A, but that’s it. I feel so privileged that I know! I may be able to be bribed…

Thank you D and A for having me in your home and being so open to my ideas…even the ones that involved you going out into the freezing snow!

My absolute favorites…

Peace and love,

Cilla

P.S. So, I have been made fun of by a nameless friend…you know who you are ….for my “Peace, love and xoxo”. Although I will fight and argue until I can’t anymore, that I’m not doing this because of that, after some consideration, I am dropping the xoxo. That MAY be a little too cheesy But the Peace and love will be going no where! I mean…that’s cool…right? I know…I know…you were all so worried about where the “xoxo” went to.
