What’s Least interesting to a 3-year old: a) seven day old new little brother b) plastic spider climbing toy 3) trucks driving on Baker Road

complimentary dadday & me picture session at studio, and first in Baby First Year in portraits

Everything but newborn baby brother interested Andrew Saturday morning.  Luckily, the plastic climbing spider got his attention to get the family portrait his parents wanted!  Thanks Meghan for coming in from Plymouth, and backtracing from the Ann Arbor truck-a-looza for the late morning session.  The boys are beautiful!   Answer to quiz caption:  newborn baby brother is least interesting–especially it seems at portrait time!

7 days old, welcome Laila, congrats Cory and Jill

Order your images Online in Photo Generations test

UPDATED POST:  Perfect for out-of-town friends & family of  Ann Arbor senior photography clients, also grandparents of baby picture clients(especially the baby first year in portrait clients!) and far flung families and guests of Ann Arbor wedding clients, the online picture gallery will complement our in studio Big Show.  It is in BETA TESTING:Check out this mini test express print boutique: the client or friend may directly purchase not only prints, but also fun stuff like sweatshirts (!), a canvas print, keychain, puzzle & other amazing things. Direct–you have final say on the crop-color or BW or if to get a magnet for the fridge with your portrait art.

With freedom comes responsibility
I have been extremely careful to let loose the freedom of the internet, because, with freedom comes responsibility–free not to just see the images on the web, but now also free to immediately order and pay a third party for the prints, then free to have your images shipped directly to you, but also free to err in the process….

This is an experiment to see you use the ‘Express Photogenerations’
It’s a BETA Test. Check it out and drop a line to me….

Warmly,
Colleen

PS If you would like to have an ‘archived vintage session’ made available online in Your PHOTOGEN Boutique give me a shout.
I am excited about the possibilities for us all.

grand finale to one year in baby portraits for lil lena

grand finale to one year in baby portraits for lil lena this huge cupcake came from the cupcake station a sweet photo shoot prop

Lena is One and to celebrate her mom brought a special cupcake. ( her mom just raves about the cupcake station in Ann Arbor where they got the treat)  Looks like Lena loves it. Not all one  year olds like da sweets you know.  But Lena demolished the huge treat–hmm she fell on it!  Happily I snuck a taste during clean up. Yum.
