Trick or Treat in the Park
Another Trick or Treat in the Park has come and gone. It's always so much fun meeting all of you and having a fun afternoon outside. Thank you everyone who came and thank you so much to everyone who came to the photo booth, your support is what keeps us going for next year and hopefully many after that as well. I hope everyone had a great Halloween!
Thanks so much to Backwoods Photography for capturing all the candid moments as well as this shot of my friend Danielle from Bella's Tutus, her husand, my husband and me.
Once Upon A Time
Once upon a time there was a little boy name Cooper. He was the sweetest, smartest, cutest, silliest 5 and ½ year old ever. Well that is how my little nephew likes to start his stories! For those of you familiar with my work, you have seen his cute little face before. Some of you had him as my “assistant” a few times.
Cooper is such a character! He has been in love with superheroes since he was three. He is well known in his community for always being in costume or having a secret identity. I think this is a result of his imagination and intellect. This boy loves to learn and then he loves to quiz us adults on what he learned. There is nothing like being taught about the planets by a 5 year old.
He has this little way about him that endears him to people. He has manners and is polite when need be. Adults, teachers, coaches, they all meet him and just love him; he always seems to be the focal point. The funny thing is, he doesn’t realize it and is actually quite shy. He has lots of little “quirks” that make him unique and stand out.
This is one of my first and favorite pictures.
Ever since he has been a baby, he has rubbed him mom’s chin to fall asleep, or to say goodbye, if he is tired or nervous. In between takes at a session he was sleepy, so mom bent down to talk to him, he rubbed her chin….I had my camera ready and one of the best pictures ever was taken. These are the moments I am always trying to capture for you!
Lastly, he is one of the silliest little people out there. He has this infectious laugh that just makes you laugh with him. I’m laughing now thinking of him throwing his head back and cracking up.
I may be a teeny tiny bit biased, but I do think he is the sweetest, smartest, cutest silliest 5 ½ year olds out there. For those of you that have met him, what do you think?!
Trick or Treat in the Park
Have I mentioned yet how much I love this time of year? Well, I love this time of year! I love everything about fall. This also happens to be my busiest time of year, with senior pictures and family sessions for Christmas. However, I always set aside a Saturday to say thank you to all of you who have made my dream a reality.
Mark your calendar for Saturday October 13. I throw the best trick or treat/ fall party at Pen Mar Park. For those of you not familiar with the location, it is a park right on the MD/PA border with one of the most fantastic views ever! The leaves will be at full peak and the scenic overlook goes forever.
You may be wondering what else is there other than this fabulous view. It’s a party people! I will have games, food, trick or treating in the park and lots more. Did I mention the food?
There is no cost to attend and participate. Have the kids wear their costumes, you too if you want! My adult volunteers will be wearing superhero capes so you know who to ask if you need help. It was a huge hit last year!
In addition to all of this fun, I will have a photo booth set up, decorated for fall to take pictures if you like. I do have to charge $20 for the pictures, just to cover the cost of my supplies and postage. You will get 5-10 images on a CD mailed to you. This is a great way to capture your little ones in their costumes.
This day is my way of thanking you for being loyal clients of mine. If you have not had a session with me yet, come anyway! I will be displaying my work along with Christmas session information and gift ideas. If you haven’t scheduled your family session for the holidays yet, bring your calendar because I am filling up fast! Hope to see you there!!
