This was such a fun session. I love going to clients' homes for sessions and photographing children in their home turf. These three kiddos were so much fun, and so happy. You know when tutus and teddy bears are involved, things are going to go well!

On a side note, we are still looking for models for Saturday August 28th. Details are in the next post!

The model call from my last post went really well! We had so many cute kiddos come out for the shoot. Here are some shots we got that day during all of their mini shoots. We took a few minutes for each model for a mini shoot, and they got to choose a free print from the session. 

We have TWO MORE model shoots coming up on August 28th and September 11th!  We are looking for a diverse group of children for some amazing phonics curriculum that we are developing.Your child needs to be between the ages of 4-7 years old (can be older if they look little!). We will be photographing them using alphabet themes.  For your time you will receive a free 5x7 print of your child from images similar to the ones above. The model shoot will take place here in Maricopa, I'd love to see all my Maricopa friends come out! If you are interested, please email me at cindy@lilypstudio.com and we will send you the information for the shoots. If you know anyone with adorable children, feel free to pass the information along!

This past week I've been spending time with my family in Utah, (Mapleton to be exact) and we are having so much fun! My sister's house has so many fun little places to photograph the kiddos, and I've been having fun photographing my nieces and nephews. So I thought, why not have a few mini sessions while I'm here and allow some others in on the fun! So here it is:

Sessions will be held in the mornings next week, Monday thru Thursday from 8am-10am. I'll only do a few sessions each morning, so I can still enjoy my vacation time! If you need an afternoon to evening (cause the sun goes down crazy late each night!) let me know and I can open 2 evening sessions up.  

 

I'm super excited to see you, and your kiddos to play this next week! 

 

I'm leaving at the end of next week, and probably won't be back up to Utah til next summer, so if you have been wanting a session with me, email me at cindyatlilypstudiodotcom (you know you need to put in the right symbols there right?) with the day you want and I'll send you a paypal invoice for the session fee. Once you pay, your on the books! If your time is taken I'll let you know what else I have available. 

Here are a few images I've been getting of my little kin just to wet your whistle!

 

 

When I planned and created this blog, and the direction that Lily P. Studio would take this year, I hoped to get everything wrapped up and running smoothly very quickly. As I've learned over and over throughout my life, my timetable is rarely the one that ends up being reality. This short span into the new year has been more than a little unpredictable, in both good and bad ways. I surely didnt' plan on debuting my lovely new blog, only to leave it idle for weeks if not months. This past week has been challenging personally for my family, and I am reminded that life does not work on our timetable.... that we can allow ourselves to be swept up, and give ourselves permission to speed up and slow down with its ebbs and flows. So I'm letting myself go to the flow of life, at least for now. I had a mini session today with a young lady I have photographed since Lily P. Studio opened our doors. I was a little bit down today, and she was just the pick me up I needed. At the end of the session, as we drove back to my house, she sang Annie's "The Sun Will Come Up Tomorrow"  and as I sang with her (a little bit off tune, but that's o.k.) my heart sang with her, and I was reminded that no matter what today becomes, tomorrow is a new day, and the sun always comes up. Thank you, Emily, for that little reminder.
