Well, she's 6 months old now, and she's still smiling! She has to go down in history as one of the happiest babies I have ever met.

Even when she wasn't smiling (which only amouted to a total of about 34 seconds) she pulled out the adorable. Look at those lashes~!

What an amazing holiday season I had, and I want to shout out a huge thanks to all my new and returning clients for being awesome. So, in case you don't follow me personally on my facebook page or haven't had a session in a while, the Vickers family has some big news! We are happy to announce that our third little boy will be joining the ranks in June! Now, I am always gaga over newborns, but being pregnant myself makes me a little insane. Ohhhhhhhh the mushy goodness.<br />

I mean, what's not to love about THAT? And spring is baby season! Now, I am going to be working on a slightly adjusted schedule starting in around May. My sweet almost 5 year old boy was about 4 weeks early, and although we have NO indication that we will have an early little one again, I am trying to plan accordingly. So in order to make sure that all this sweet newborn goodness makes it into my sechedule, I am offering a special for newborn sessions only. Book and pay for your newborn session now(before Feb 28), for anytime through May 12, 2013 and you get to choose ONE of the following options!
1. $100 off your session and disk combo, which takes the price for a session and a disk of all edited images (usually around 25) down to $350.
2. A free mini maternity session in February, March or April. I will have one date per month, in some fabulous locations to highlight that baby bump.
3. An upgrade on your session+disk package ($450). Buy it, and I'll upgrade you to the session+disk+canvas option for free! That means you get serving of 16x20 gallery wrapped canvas deliciousness, a $200 upgrade, for nada, nil, zip!
So email me today at courtneyvickersphotography@yahoo.com for more info or to go ahead and get your baby on the books! Come on, you know you want some of this....

I've been catching up with some babies on my baby plan lately, and I just loooooove these 6-10 month sessions. There is pretty much nothing better than a baby in the second half of his or her first year. They are sweet, cuddly, not afraid of anything and adorable! Who could ask for more?<br />
Sweet Zach was no exception. He kept me on my toes with his speed crawl, and we had a blast together with his mom and dad.

I just love a chunky little baby. Maybe because I had 2 of them! This little sweetie was pretty serious for the duration of her session, but that didn't stop the cuteness! I can't believe how much she's grown since her newborn session 6 months ago!<br />

And with cuteness like this I am happy to oblige. Oh.My.Soul.<br />
Let me preface by saying that I am kind of in love with Max's big sister Kaiya. She is cute as a button, and has the spunkiest, sassiest little personality. And did I say cute?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/7797393498/" title="web9 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web9" height="500" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7112/7797393498_1392808665_b.jpg" width="750" /></a>
<br />
So knowing that I had that to work with, and that her brother was going to be just as yummy, I was reeeeaaaallllly excited about this session. In fact, I kind of forced my hand on it because mom was really nervous about how he would be. She <i>claimed</i> that all Max wanted to do was eat and she was concerned that he would not be the sweet, sleepy newborn I was looking for. Well, he made mom a liar. Sorry Marcy.
When this was literally the 4th fame I snapped, I knew we were in for some good times.
<br />

<br />
And it kind of just went pretty well from there on out. I'm not saying that he didn't fuss. All newborns do. But as my friend Lauren and her hubby Brad like to say "this a'int my first time at the rodeo". Babies don't scare me. ;)

In fact, I feel like I should share this out-take so you can see that he DID cry. Actually, I love this picture. He's screaming and the rest of them are just tickled pink. That's life with a newborn for ya!

One of them, and I have said this before, is getting to spend time with families in their homes. I love getting a feel for their dynamic. I love seeing the things that they do like my family, and the things they do differently. I love letting kids show me their rooms. It's so funny the things that get them excited "Look at this! This is the tissue I used to kill a spider!!!" I love that they'll tell me their secrets "Hey, did you know my sister always sleeps in my bed with me? My mommy doesn't know!" ( I will wager a bet that mom does know) ;)<br />
Anyway, I had a great time with this family. They have 2 gorgeous girls, one who is about the same age as my Grady, and one adorable little baby who warmed my heart. <br />

I'm trying to get them all up on the blog because they are oh.so.adorable. I'm a little bit of a sucker for baby girls. Maybe because we have 2 boys, or maybe it's just all the pink and the hairbows! Little Ava did not disappoint and neither did her mama. I always bring headbands and bows with me, but Ava's mom had a whole arsenal ready and I barely had to even glance at my stuff. ;) <br />

This family has had several sessions over the past few years, and my buddy Jack was pretty excited to show me his baby.

Savannah's mom and dad were wedding clients a few years ago, and I love, love, LOVE watching my wedding clients move on to build their families. It's a huge treat. Not only did they bring an adorable newborn to the table, big brother Dakota is sooooooo photogenic and such a sweet soul. He was such a big helper with this session, and asked questions the whole way through. It was so awesome to see how involved he was.<br />

Little Miss was only 11 days new, but she had some killer eye contact going on already.

My Huckleberry {finn}This weekend we had a special birthday in our house. Our funny man, my snugglebunny, Finn, turned 4.
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/7135900829/" title="web1 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web1" height="750" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7276/7135900829_9f330c978d_b.jpg" width="500" /></a>
I did good. I didn't cry. Too much. I just can't believe how big he is! This child is the most witty, humorous little 4 year old I have ever met. He just cracks me up on a constant basis.
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/7135900911/" title="web2 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web2" height="750" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7182/7135900911_24bfec5b7e_b.jpg" width="500" /></a>
He is sweet and compassionate. Not only does he charm adults, but he is a kid charmer as well. Every time we visit big brother's school, you would think I rolled in with Justin Bieber. The girls all line up for a Finn hug, and even the boys have to get in a high five. He even has one of the secretaries trained to immediately fetch him a lollipop when we walk through the door. {shout out Kim, he loves ya!}
<br />

He loves music, everything from Raffi to Aerosmith. He loves to dance and shake his long surfer hair.
<br />

While his brother was always pretty independant, and will only come in for a hug or kiss when begged, Finn seems to know when someone needs a cuddle. Despite the fact that he's close to half my weight, he still coerces me into carrying him WAY more than he needs to be. Its because I know that when I pick him up, he's going to wrap his arms around my neck and gently pat me on the back. It's like crack to this mommy's soul. And hey, I don't go to the gym so I might as well keep my arms toned, right?!?!<br />

For his pictures, he wanted to go to his school. He LOVES school, which I am so happy about, because after a not so great summer camp experience I was a little worried that he would not ever leave my side. He's got a couple little guys that he loves to hang with, and he's definitely into the social aspect of things!

It was a second wedding for both the bride and groom, and I have to say, I LOVE that! All the fun, all the beauty, minus the stress. Because you see, once a bride has gone through this before, she realizes that while this is an awesome, important, wonderful day. It's a day. In truth, I hardly remember my wedding, and I think most of my friends feel the same way. It becomes mass chaos, everything at light speed. So when Tracy called me to tell me about this very casual, super laid back backyard event, I was immediately smitten with the idea. Don't get me wrong. I love first time brides as well. You can't duplicate the excitement at an event like that. But when the ring bearer is doing this 30 minutes before the ceremony, it's gonna be a fun day. <br />

Speaking of ring bearers, look at how he carried the rings! So sweet!

And their mama makes raising them, running a business and being completely put together 100% of the time look like it ain't no thing. Mom is the owner and director of The Reading Corner, in Lutz. I cannot, cannot say enough good things about this school. It is one of the most amazing educational enviroments I have ever witnessed, and I sincerely wish I did not live 45 minutes away. If you don't, please check them out. Sign your kids up, you won't be sorry.

Or, maybe your mom would relish some shots of her and the grandkids!<br />

I just couldn't resist. {baby Mia}<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6982822545/" title="web1 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web1" height="500" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7209/6982822545_a45cf84d00_b.jpg" width="750" /></a>
I had to pop on the blog today to share a few sneak peeks of precious newborn Mia. She's the first baby girl in a group of my sister in law's close friends who meet every month or so and have since college. They have remained close, and I've watched as they have started to get married, have babies and make enormous changes in the Tampa Bay area and in the world. Seriously, this group of women is destined to do great things both separately and together. As I did little Mia's session, it struck me that out of the several babies that I have photographed in the group, she is the only girl. I asked her mom, and yep, the rest have all been boys! So this little princess has some big shoes to fill for her mom and her moms amazing friends and the legacy they are creating for her. And I think she'll be up to the task. This one will have brains in her head and I think it's pretty clear she's gotten her mommy's looks as well. Simply gorgeous, this one.

What a sweet little peanut this one was. She wanted to take her time eating, but when she was done, she was asleep lickety split. She didn't even realize that the big kids were out having so much fun in the backyard merely steps away from her. :)<br />

Oh. Arie. That little 4 letter word has become synonomous with love for me. When my brother called me last May to tell me I was going to be an Aunt, I was super excited. <br />
Here's the thing about being an aunt though. You know you're going to love your own kids. You know they will take your breath away. I knew I would love my nephew, too. What I was not prepared for was being reduced to tears in the middle of the whale and dolphin show at Sea World when the first picture and his birth stats popped up in a text on my phone. Instantly. Smitten. Yep, I am a sucker. And the beauty is, I can spoil him. It's not like with my own kids where I have to worry about them becoming raving tyrants who insist on ice cream for dinner and will only bathe on thursdays. With Arie, I can send him numerous quantities of superfluous random stuff <em>just because</em>. And it's accepted. Because I'm his aunt. I'm <em>supposed</em> to spoil him. <br />
Last weekend, I was able to go out to Colorado to meet my one and only (thus far) nephew. And let me just use these words again. Instantly. Smitten. <br />
It's a fun thing to see your younger sibling holding their new baby. Not only does it make you feel exceptionally old, it also allows you to see them in this whole new light. I remember Eric (my brother) holding my babies when they were tiny and <strike>trying to hand them off to the nearest person over 12</strike> being so unsure and akward. Those days have passed. He's met this new challenge with a wonderful ease and assurance. My Sister in law is tired, but was so kind and sweet to me the whole time. I wish we lived closer so I could poke around the little shops in Downtown Denver with her on the weekends. They had even gotten me some little bath items to use during my visit. I wish I'd been quite so pulled together with my first 3 week old.<br />
Anyway, I could write about this baby for pages and pages, because as we know I am <em>(all together now )</em> Instantly. Smitten. Here's a little slideshow I put together of his newborn session. I had to use this Jack Johnson song, it's one of my boys' all time favorites, and I really do feel like these three are going to be better together. <br />

For Finn's class, I will most likely put a little treat baggie together, since his class is pretty small. All you have to do is a hole punch in the corner of the card and tie a ribbon or thread through and attach it to the treat bag. <br />

since Grady is in a larger 1st grade class, and because his class is the designated allergen free class, making it hard to find candy that's safe for all, I will just attach it to a pencil! <br />

Alternatively, if your child is not in preschool or grade school, or they just insist on disney valentines, you can always just opt for wallets to send to close friends and family. <br />

If you've used me as a photographer, you know I am crazy about canvas. And today only, my lab is running a sale, so I am going to pass that on to YOU! Now, I know. You got your groupon. You can get a 16x20 canvas for $49. I am going to say this as nicely as possible about canvas prints. You get what you pay for. Which is why I think you need to jump on this sale! No, I can't offer them for $49 but I CAN guarantee that you will be breathless at the sight of your image blown up on a canvas from my lab, and you'll immediately see the difference. <br />
Here's the pricing. Remember, this is today only. You need to contact me at <a href="mailto:courtneyvickersphotography@yahoo.com">courtneyvickersphotography@yahoo.com</a> by 10pm in order to seal the deal. Shipping is included, tax of 7% will be added to all orders. <br />
<br />
11x14- $99<br />
16x20- $119<br />
16x24- $129<br />
20x24- $149<br />
20x30- $199<br />
<br />
And because I don't want to leave you without goodies, here are some images from my holiday season that I think would look absolutely SMASH-tastic on one of these canvases. <br />

Big sister is so in love with this baby. The whole session, she kept remarking "she's so adorable, right?!?!" Yep, you're right. And I know someone else who's pretty adorable too. :) <br />

I've had so many great newborns this season, and still a few more left to photograph, including one VERY special little one, my nephew Arie. Oh, I cannot WAIT! <br />
Anyway, these three little boys were all just a dream to work with. So gorgeous. <br />
<br />
When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. <br />
<br />
When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. <br />
And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh.- Matthew 2:9-11<br />

I'll be sharing some of those images in the coming weeks, but for now I will start with this beautiful backyard wedding I shot the day after Thanksgiving. The bride is all the way from the phillippnes, and is the new sister in law of my best friend. I'll just jump in, because I have been trying to get this post up all day and things keep popping up :)<br />

Well, put them together and you've got a winning combination! One of the best things about my job and the fact that I have young children is that my clients become my friends. The flip side of that is that it becomes even more exciting when my friends become my clients. This family and our family have been friends since before we were 'families'. In fact, baby Owen's mom was present during the 3rd date with my husband years ago, and was a driving force in why he kept calling me ;) She and my sister in law go way way back. She came to our wedding, I went to hers. She came to visit when I had Grady, and so now, 6 years later, I was thrilled beyond belief to take my turn visiting her little man, Owen. The fact that he looks like a doll did not hurt our encounter ;) <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6315209391/" title="web1 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web1" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6060/6315209391_8f4d911051_b.jpg" width="750" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6315726252/" title="web2 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web2" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6099/6315726252_392cc2611f_b.jpg" width="750" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6315726376/" title="web3 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web3" height="750" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6236/6315726376_4fd903b555_b.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6315209829/" title="web4 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web4" height="750" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6107/6315209829_baca2cf210_b.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6315726566/" title="web5 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web5" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6219/6315726566_0fb101c72b_b.jpg" width="750" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6315726642/" title="web6 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web6" height="750" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6036/6315726642_eee04e4f89_b.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6315210063/" title="web7 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web7" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6041/6315210063_a0c18e568b_b.jpg" width="750" /></a> The fact that his daddy is a firefighter and had his work gear sitting nearby also did not hurt, and I definitely grabbed the opportunity to photograph Owen's teeny. precious self in daddy's boots. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6315726792/" title="web8 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web8" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6224/6315726792_98dd5ff410_b.jpg" width="750" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6315726900/" title="web9 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web9" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6231/6315726900_8de89bf7fc_b.jpg" width="750" /></a> <br />

Again, I am short on words. It's full on holiday season here at CVP and I proofing at any spare moment. But I did want to get these up for this fun family. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6307876624/" title="web15 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web15" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6217/6307876624_e65d552f0f_b.jpg" width="750" /></a> I have never seen a girl this age still so in love with her daddy. It truly touched my heart how sweet she was with him. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6307876498/" title="web14 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web14" height="750" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6043/6307876498_43ff734b2c_b.jpg" width="500" /></a> Michael is definitely at the age that family pictures are more of a chore than a fun adventure. But he was such a trooper, and did smile when we got to talking about his band. He plays drums and guitar. The ladies will all swoon in a year or two! <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6307876426/" title="web13 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web13" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6218/6307876426_f83e493a56_b.jpg" width="750" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6307876324/" title="web12 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web12" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6223/6307876324_4ec8dcf403_b.jpg" width="750" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6307354607/" title="web10 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web10" height="750" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6101/6307354607_f6d1b51ea6_b.jpg" width="500" /></a> All the cousins <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6307876242/" title="web11 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web11" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6240/6307876242_eee034c944_b.jpg" width="750" /></a>Courtneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17314997157610390716noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8438386438992671433.post-91321280549560187042011-10-31T21:24:00.001-05:002011-10-31T21:24:10.715-05:00The Ybor city restaurant tourMet this awesome family down in Ybor for their session. These girls are TOO MUCH. Seriously. They had me in complete stitches, and I loved all the candid, natural smiles they were all too willing to give. Mom had them dressed in so many bright, vivid colors I knew right away this was going to be a fantastic time. I've been photographing this family for a long time, and I loved catching up with them! <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6300524805/" title="web1 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web1" height="750" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6103/6300524805_01a6d9b645_b.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6300524989/" title="web2 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web2" height="750" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6120/6300524989_65ea0203ed_b.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6300525171/" title="web3 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web3" height="750" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6032/6300525171_68f9586d54_b.jpg" width="500" /></a> <br />

I mean, mom and dad look like this, so.... <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6300525433/" title="web5 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web5" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6054/6300525433_1d39e1cc7b_b.jpg" width="750" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6301057362/" title="web6 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web6" height="750" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6116/6301057362_9e317dda45_b.jpg" width="500" /></a> <br />
<br />
Ok, now this isn't necessarily the christmas card shot (although it would probably be my pick) but I had to share. Mom and Dad had asked the girls so so so so many times to just sit and smile for ONE shot. Well, they weren't really into that plan. At this point, you can see mom just thinking "whatever, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em!" I love how it shows off this family's personality. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6301057570/" title="web7 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web7" height="500" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6113/6301057570_85ea0a6355_b.jpg" width="750" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvphotography/6300525893/" title="web8 by courtneyvickersphotography, on Flickr"><img alt="web8" height="750" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6114/6300525893_d5e6bc9f33_b.jpg" width="500" /></a> <br />

Mom's sister and her beautiful family joined us as well, and I'll be posting some of theirs tomorrow.

Click the following link to read about my upcoming mini sessions. <a href="http://myemail.constantcontact.com/Holiday-mini-sessions-2011.html?soid=1101996057564&aid=6RzJviWYH7Y">CLICK ME!!!</a> I still have a few spots open as well for full sessions.<br />
<br />
And no, I'm not going to leave you with no pictures. I have a very beautiful family to share. We had a great afternoon at UT. I'm going to keep it short, because I still have to pack lunches for school in the morning. And because I know tonight I should go to bed early, for tomorrow my little goblins will be up late in a sugar and adrenaline induced frenzy. And then they will crash, only to awake an hour or so later scared by visions of vampires dancing in their heads, despite my best efforts to keep them away from the big kids in scary costumes. Ah, Halloween. <br />

Does anyone even know that song besides me? <br />
I'd like to introduce sweet, cute, adorable Sebastian! His mama is a friend, and she and dad had a bet going. If he was born in September, dad got to name him. If he came in October, it was mom's choice. Well, this little guy must have known his name was supposed to be Sebastian, because mom went into labor late in the evening on Sept. 30, and baby was born 53 minutes into October. I think it's pretty clear he decided to take control of that! <br />
<br />
Love this one. It's like he was looking straight at my soul. <br />
