A few more from back home. (sneak peek)

This last weekend in Youngstown I had the opportunity to photograph Gabrielle and her little cousin Christian. I grew up with their mommies and have known them since I was the age their children are right now! Its so amazing to see how grown up we are and how adorable their families are!!

This weekend was also a great opportunity for me to use the new studio that has become available to me in Youngstown for my sessions at home! I want to send a special thanks out to Colleen for letting us rent the studio and use some of her things. I hope this is only the start of a beautiful friendship/business relationship!! *please note that some of the props used in these sessions as well as the ahhh-mazing exposed brick wall are only available at the Youngstown studio...sorry!

Beautiful Gabrielle!





Cousins are soooo sweet!!!


Christian and his mommy and daddy came all the way from Michigan for their session. What a doll! So glad they did! This was a special treat for Christian...he got to eat cupcakes!! He warmed up to me very quickly after that!
