She's here!

Remember the cute little mommy from this post ? Well, she's had her sweet little one and it was such a joy to get to go see her the other day. I haven't had a lot of newborn girls recently. I have been on a run of boys! "A" is pretty as a picture and has a head full of hair. She must have known what family she was being born into, since both mommy and daddy cut hair for a living!

I have my five comments for the post below, so if you were one of them, please email me with your address so I can send out the gift certificates. courtneyvickersphotography@yahoo.com. Even if you know for sure I have your address, email me because I will put them all in the same place for easy finding when I have the cards ready to mail!

Also, I *think* I may have the website on the road to recovery. It may be up and down for the next 72 hours, but then I am crossing my fingers that it will all be back and those of you who have been patiently waiting on galleries will have them!

Sweet little P.

I have had a lot of "P" names lately! Must be a little trend!
Anyway, this little girl is a DOLL and I am so glad her mom brought her for a session. She has been going to Sears every month and said she wanted something a little different. Well, I can help with that! On a side note: I think it's a GREAT idea to have portraits done every month during the first year. A baby changes so so so much with ever week it seems, and those will be cherished memories in years to come. Even if you do have to go to Sears to get them done (I always say there's a time and place....for everything).

So, I know some of you are looking for a promised giveaway. The first 5 people (It's day 5) to leave comments here will get a gift certificate for $50 to use towards a session or prints from me. It does need to be redeemed by Dec 2009 and has no cash value. Lets hope this goes a little better than the last giveaway or I will probably cry. ;)

4 for 4.

It's day four of sneak for a week! And I am still on track! Yay!
So for the fourth day I thought I'd share 4 little cuties. These are some cousins that I shot. The boy and the little blond girl and brother and sister, and the other two girls are sisters. I love when families get together for sessions, because not only do I get a glimpse into the entire family dynamic, I get to meet a lot of fun people! So here's the fearsome foursome for ya! They were a blast.

P.S. Still no takers on that FREE newborn session from last post. I am a little floored. Usually when I do stuff like that it's gone in 15 minutes! Maybe it's the weekend?

Baby P

I have a lot of mommy friends waiting on pics of this little man! And what a sweet guy he is! So laid back and sleepy. He reminds me so much of Fin in the early days. L-I hope he stays sweet and laid back for you. I know you hope so too! ;)


Here's one of his big sis first. Loved the moody light on this.

And if you made it to the end and you're still reading....
time for the first giveaway this week. The first pregnant mommy to leave me a comment here (do not email it) will win a free newborn session. Yep. I am a sucker for fresh baked baby. And because I do have to have a couple rules:
1. Mom must be in the tampa bay area. Hillsborough, Pasco or Pinellas county.
2. Baby needs to be due sometime this summer. Before August 15th.
3. Newborn session must take place within two weeks of birth, so if you're going out of town for a month right after you have the baby, please let someone else have the prize.
4. Session only is free. No prints included. Prints may be purchased at my standard pricing.
5. No cash value.

K. I think that's it. Um, Go!

Junebug

My little friend "R" is about to be a big sister to little "A" who is due in only a few short weeks! I love June babies, because I happen to be one ;)
Her mommy won one of the free maternity sessions I announced in my newsletter "model call" a few months ago, and I am so glad! They were fun to work with even though they claimed they were a little unsure of what to do. But they did great. R's mommy takes great pictures of her already, but I am so glad she wanted to do this session. Sometimes we photographers forget to capture our own special moments because we are working so hard on getting everyone else's! I was so glad they wanted to capture their family of three before it's a family of four! Come back towards the end of June for pics of this sweet little junebug. I know she'll be sweet. Just look at her sister!

Sneaky week

I have sooooooo much to share. I am having site issues right now and I am trying to get the site back up and running, but I hope while it's down right now you'll come back to the blog! This week I have a couple of giveaways! (yay) So come back every day and check in! Keep me honest folks. Come back and if you don't see a post, bug me for it! I know a couple of you who will ;)
So first off, I have to share some from the other wedding I did in March. I have to thank this couple because they have been super patient while waiting. Actually, all of my clients have been super patient lately so thank you! Anyway this little bride is just so sweet, and it's been extremely hard to proof these because she's so cute that I love every picture! I had a ton of fun with the guys in the bridal party as well. They were troopers! I made them jump like 150 times. I'm not joking.

It's still Tuesday!

Ok, "L"I made it! Yes, it is 10:30 pm on tuesday night. But I said Tuesday and tuesday it is! ;)

Cuties "B and B" are some of my favorite little men. I won't be wordy tonight. It's late. But their cuteness speaks for itself!
OK, and the little pink mark you notice right by little B's lip in the first pic and Big B's cheek in the last one is not supposed to be there. But I just saw it and I am too tired to go back and take it out. It's from where I erased back part of my watermark...

Seriously. It's always the boys with the lashes. Not as if they'd ever care or appreciate the gorgeousness!
