Newborn Pictures

As a new amateur  photographer, I am constantly looking for practice, so when my assistant principal at work had a new baby girl, I asked if I could practice on her. I was excited about her pictures, so I wanted to share a few. Her mom had this great idea to take pictures with her grandmother's old bible. I love pictures that have a special touch to them. Well here they are.

Birthday Scrap Page

I just got finished scrapbooking Riner's actual birthday. I am still waiting for his birthday party pictures to do his party scrap pages. I got the kits for these pages at Scrap Orchard which has wonderful scrapbooking kits.

Valentines Page

I love scrapping. I just recently went digital though. I love it because I can scrapbook and I don't have to organize tons of stuff. I still love to scrapbook cards and things, but I think my books will mostly be done digitally now. I have yet to actually print my first book though. I like to scrapbook like I am telling a story to my little boy. Here is the Valentines page that I just did. This is a 2 page spread that will lay right next to each other.

Valentines Day

My little boy is such a charmer and quite the little flirt, so when I was trying to think about what I should do for his Valentines Card... I decided I would make him a little heartbreaker. My husband and I put up a black backdrop and put our little man in a white button up and a bow tie that his cousin let us borrow for my husband's sister's wedding. He looked adorable. Catching that adorableness was a little harder. He was not interested in the rose at all, so I would hand it to him and he would throw it down... That is what he is trying to do in this picture. He was looking at his daddy who is jumping up and down and making funny noises. This is actually the 2nd picture I took on rapid fire. I was real pleased on how it turned out. He is quite the little charmer isn't he.

Riner's First Birthday

Today is my baby's first birthday. His daddy had to work night shift last night, but was off last weekend, so we had his birthday party last week (Pictures from the party will come later), but we ordered this shirt for him for his party, but I didn't order it in time, and we got it too late for him to wear for the party, but he is wearing it today. He looks so cute in it. We ordered the shirt from http://www.shirtmagic.com/

 We had lunch with my momma, and went to Sweet Cece's in Kingsport. The owners were there and they were soooo nice to us. We are about to go play at McDonalds. It will be the last McDonalds trip I EVER make. Last year, when riner was born, I gave up soda. I have not had one soda in 1 year. I am going to continue this tradition, but I am going to add a ban on McDonalds as well. Wish me luck.

I love photography, and here are some pictures I took of my little sister. As I looked at all of the super cute pics on Pintrest of pretty girls in cute outfits... It made me think of these pictures I took this fall. I never had this much style when I was in high school.
