Fun with Families | Lebanon Family Photographer

Other photographers dread family sessions. So many people, expressions, attitudes, and such. Pshaw on that, says I! Sure, family portrait sessions can be intimidating and serious and stuff but not with Priceless Reflections by Melissa! We have F*U*N!

I do believe we have a future golf pro in the making here. Love capturing his serious expression and concentration.

A little brotherly love… say it with me now… “awww…” and their sweet, rough and tumble, wee one.

Daddy, best get your shotgun ready now. One day she’ll leave her glorious princess bedroom for a date with Prince Charming. She’s already a heartbreaker!

Watch Me Grow | Mason Child Photographer | Cincinnati Photographer

This little princess has been a Priceless Reflections by Melissa client since she was just a few days old. I’ve had the pleasure of watching her grow and the honor of documenting her life through portraits for her family. On this day, she was real trooper and full of laughs, giggles, and that batting eyelashes look that every little girl seems to master to get what she she wants.

Recognize her from the top of the Smugmug site where you view your images after the session? She’s growing up!

It’s a Small World | Mason Photographer | Cincinnati Family Photographer

As Mom to two boys, I can relate to that incredible bond between mothers and sons, and this session really rocked my socks because I got to focus on their relationship. No distractions, no other STUFF, just mom, son, and me… along with some seriously killer light.

That’s not to say it was all serious and deep – we have too much fun for that!

Mom’s got a heartbreaker on her hands. Oh, those eyes!

Piece of really cool but totally useless trivia: Mom attended college with my husband in Carbondale. How cool is that? Let’s all bust out in a chorus of, “It’s a Small World!”

Love Makes the World Go Round | Cincinnati Family Photographer

I’ve been blessed to photograph the “B” family for the last 3 years or so. Blessed because they’re a unique family full of love and compassion and yeah, a lot of fun. The expressions on their faces are so much fun – just look at a slice of our day.

How can you resist smiles like this?

So Long, Farewell | Tempe Preschool Photographer

Our own Smushie graduated from Yad B’Yad Preschool at Temple Emanuel and through the tears (and laughs… preschool graduation, enough said) I was able to capture some great images for the families.

And here’s our girl. We’re so proud of you, Smushie!

I can’t say enough great things about Yad B’Yad and Lynn, Denise, and Leslie! Thank you so much for the wonderful education, guidance, and friendship you gave to our daughter and all of the children in her class. We’ll miss you!

Whirlwind Week Shooting in Cincinnati |Cincinnati Photographers| |Phoenix Photographers|

Oh me oh my! What an incredible week I had last week, shooting literally thousands of photos of some of Cincinnati’s best and cutest families, kids etc! From eensy weensy babies, to big kids and their parents, what a week it was! Here’s just a sneak peek preview of some of the FUN we all had last week!

Huge SHOUT OUT and Mega-THANK YOU to Dana and Ben, who were my assistants. Ben took some awesome shots – and Dana, as always, was the best assistant of all time! Thank you to both of you for the help!

Without further adieu.. check out some of the fun from last week:

Giddyup Cowboy! |Phoenix Children’s Photographer|

admin — Sun, 04 Apr 2010 01:45:57 +0000

One of the best parts of living here in Phoenix is our proximity to all things “Western” … cowboy hats, cowboy boots, and big belt buckles. Coming from Cincinnati… well, it’s taken some time to get used to seeing these things frequently, but it’s really cute how all the little ones get into it!

This little cowboy was SO very excited to sport his brand new cowboy hat … so during his photo shoot of course we had to bring it out for a few shots…..

Twice As Nice |Scottsdale Family Photographer|

Photographing this family is always a treat – whether in Cincinnati – or here in Scottsdale! I love it when my clients from Ohio end up vacationing in Arizona, and call me for photos! I’ve had the pleasure of photographing Caleb and Campbell for quite some time now — and with every session, I just love them more and more! (Plus it helps that their parents are really AWESOME too!)

I photographed the twins in Old Towne Scottsdale and then we went to the Sugar Bowl (haven’t been? I highly recommend it!)…. for some ice cream and of course, more photos!

The big outdoor market is full of great restaurants, loads of off-the-chain shopping, and entertainment.

Be sure to hit Slices (http://slicespizzajoint.com) and Mojo Yogurt (http://www.mojoyogurt.com) for yumminess, then head over to Dave & Buster’s or the Marketplace 16, home of the largest movie screen in Arizona.

Wedding Bells {Scottsdale Wedding Photographer}

admin — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 22:10:22 +0000

I met this charming West Side couple at the Civic Center in Scottsdale for pre-wedding portraits.

They were getting married at the courthouse but still wanted fabulous engagement-style portraits to remember the day. They’re super sweet, so very much in love, and they made my job so easy.

Just look!

They celebrated the big event at a small Brazilian restaurant with family and close friends and I can’t wait to show them the rest of their images !
