Addition

Hey everyone!
My name is Amanda and I've just recently started working here at Frameable Faces, and I absolutely LOVE it!! I got lucky enough to assist Ally in a wedding shoot, and helped out at various studio sessions. Ally and Doug welcomed me into the Frameable Faces family, and it has been amazing. I hope to be a photographer as well someday so I feel Ally is the PERFECT person to shadow and learn from. Her work is simply awesome, and she puts so much effort into her photos really making them outstanding. Many people think photographers have it easy and have the best schedule...but watching behind the scenes I've learned that editing takes hours, and can sometimes take a few days to complete as well as the shoot itself (also traveling to the shoot & back, setting up/taking down, so on and so forth). I absolutely ADORE Ally & Doug (including Tony and Lacey) and appreciate all what they've done for me and I'm so excited to continue working for them! =] I'll update soon!
Thanks!

Uh oh!!! Double Trouble!!!

Ok, well not really double TROUBLE, but they were doubly cute! I was lucky enough to be able to work with Y and E a few days ago. They were so much fun and so delicious, too!

Y was the first to be photographed all by himself. His mommy said that he really didn't like to have his picture taken, but based on what I got, I'd beg to differ! Y is such a sweetie and only wanted to be with his sister...But she had other plans!

Princess E is a center spotlight girl! So that makes her, what?? Totally typical! She was a total star and I got so many super duper adorable images of this little munchkin!

E and Y have the prettiest eyes - total doe eyes, and you all know I'm a total sucker for doe eyes! And E had the BEST legs! So delicious!!!

So between Y's sugar sweetness and E's yummy little baby bod, their mama is in total baby heaven! I know I would be!!!

Until next time,
Ally

Two of my newest favorites

Meet A and K. These two came in to the studio and we just had a ball! We took some video of our session together so we do have DOCUMENTED proof of how much fun we had. A couldn't be a sweeter little boy. He was so relaxed and calm - a perfect little gentleman. Plus, just look at his amazing eyes. Seriously, could this kid look even more like an angel? My gosh!!!

Then we have K. She was a little ham! This little girl knows what she wants and thankfully, she was spot on! She is totally an inspiring fashionista! The red bow went with the red petti, the light one went with the green rainbow one...LOVED every minute of it! The image of her by herself was just an adorable silly K moment. I loved how she'd pulled that petticoat all the way up to her armpits!

Plus, I'm a total sucker for great big brown doe eyes. K was rockin' those. They were so big and full - like little pools!

These guys came in for a Christmas card session - I think mom is going to have a hard time choosing one for their card. There are so many to select from. I guess that's the punishment for having such cute kids!

Until next time,

The sweetest little pixie - Meet "J"

J came into the studio a few weeks ago (yes, I know I'm still way behind on blogging! Sorry!!!). She had the biggest brown "doe" eyes and was so cute! She was a little trooper and pretty much let us do whatever we wanted. She was quite the little model!

Doesn't she look like a little pixie? I swear all this little girl needs is a pair of wings and one of those cute Juliet caps and she could totally pass for a little fairy. Watch out Tinkerbell!!! J's in town!

I have so many more super cute images. It was hard to pick just 2 for the blog. But you'll just have to trust me that they get cuter and cuter. Enjoy this little sneak peak.

I can't wait to see more of J...do I hear a six month session??? :)

Until next time,
Ally

Sweet baby "C"

I got a call from L asking about newborn images of her new daughter C. I happen to LOVE working with newborns! Since newborns are only "new" for so long, I have to work them in where I can. And I was so happy to be able to do it, too!! Now, newborns take a lot of time to work with. And princess C was no exception. We needed to have her with a full belly and really warm. It took a bit of time, but we finally did it!!!

You can totally tell how much she loves her Daddy and how much she loves snuggling in to her mommy too. It's so nice to see families that are so in love with each other. Kind of gives you that warm fuzzy feeling, ya know?

We were even able to get a few shots in with C's big brother R, but those are reserved for the family first! I'll post those soon enough to the Frameable Faces group on Facebook.

So, in a quickie nutshell, I loved loved LOVED working with C. She's a total sweetheart and I totally enjoyed the time we spent together. She was a total love and let me hold her and squish on her for like 4 hours. It almost made me want another baby! Almost!!!

The "S" family - they should've been the "F" family...

because they were so much FUN! Seriously, I don't love shooting on Sundays simply because I like to hang out with my own family. But if shooting families like this one makes it a lot easier and so much fun! From the second they opened up their minivan door, I felt like I've known them for a very long time. H and A were a complete pleasure to work with. They were more like adults than kids. Very respectful and well mannered...exactly how we'd like our kids to be when they're 12 and 14.

Lucky, the wonder dog, was a fun addition to the session as well. He kept us on our toes for the whole 2 hours we worked together and was such a good sport. M's parents were in from out of town and they, too, were like old friends. Seriously, we had such a great time working with everyone during this session that when we left, I wanted to hang out with them some more! It was just that great!

I could go on and on about M and T, and their daughter and her sweet baby, too! We played some geography games to try to figure out if we knew each other from way back when, but came up a bit short. I bet if we had a little bit more time, we would've figured it out!

So, I'd be happy to write more about how much I liked this session and all the people involved, but that would take up so much room and I'd feel like I was gushing. So, just suffice it to say that we were able to capture some amazing images in our 2 hours together. I'd be so happy to work with these guys again! Just sayin'!

Until next time,

The G family...G for GORGEOUS!!!

And their last name, too, but GEEZ!!! What a beautiful family! These little girls are just simply stunning and their little brother??? OMG, what an adorable little boy! I actually had our intern say "I hope I have a little boy like that when I have kids."

B and J were loving up their photo session! B was all about being in charge. As an oldest child, I totally know where she's coming from! She was all about giving directions. And she did it with such a cuteness about her! She knew what she wanted and in turn, gave me some amazing images! What a face! Her and her sister, J, both...Faces of angels, I tell you!

J had a bit of a hard time when she got here to the studio with Nanni. But after a bit of warming up, she was ON! We'd totally bonded and I'd take her home in a sec, if Doug and her parents would let me!

A is just adorable. He has the most amazing brown eyes and was delicious. Could you just smush him??? Three words for Mr. A... Y. U.M.!

Mom and Dad, too. Just a truly beautiful family! And even without our intern starting just yet, we were able to get all of these baby beauties captured exactly how they are. They were great kiddos!

Until next time,
Ally
