Spring is Here!

Spring has come to Tallahassee and I am encouraged by the beautiful weather which does not leave my families freezing while I photograph them! Here is a sweet family from this past week.

Newbie

Here is a sweet baby girl I got to photograph last week. She has awesome parents who aren't afraid to lie around in their pajamas and let her scream for a few pictures. Crying is definitely part of life when you're a baby so I'm glad to capture it.

Pregnancy Photo Shoot

Well, I've been doing lots of work on multiple photo projects but wanted to post some of the maternity pictures I did 2 weeks ago. What a beautiful couple, belly, day (although it was cold), and what a beautiful feeling I get from all things related to pregnancy!

Lately...

...I've been taking lots of pictures! So many that I don't have time to update my blog!

Today it was some head shots...still working on those but I built a backdrop in a day and it worked great!

Last weekend it was the General Dynamics Christmas Parties...

and yesterday I photographed a gingerbread house-making party! The entire shoot can be seen on my Julie Alley photography Fan page on Facebook but here are a few...

I love Family Photos!

Here are some more family pictures from my Christmas card extravaganza. I've had a great time shooting and looking at these. I would often just laugh they made me so happy. Thanks for letting me spend a few minutes capturing some light with you all in it!

More Families

I've had 4 more family photo shoots in the last week. I think it is my own way of celebrating families. What a blessing to see the wonderful children these parents have been given. (And one couple with one on the way!) Here are my faves! I've also got a Julie Alley Photography Facebook page now, so feel free to become a fan!

The families begin

Well, I've had a great response from people looking for a portrait of their family for their Christmas cards and have quite the line up in the next couple of weeks. Here are two families...the first I shot at Maclay Gardens here in Tallahassee...and felt affirmed a little that I know good lighting and location. I counted at least 4 other photographers there! It is just a great time of day and very scenic. This sweet little girl brought the "love" sign on her own and was excited about holding it in some of the pictures. Love to see those creative ideas from kids. Thanks Eva and Mia!
The second family I shot at Mission San Luis. They are family friends and were cracking me up. When I photograph friends it can sometimes become a party and I forget what I'm doing. But I managed to hold the camera still even though giggling. I love the scenery there and the house in the background of one of them. I will take photos there again I'm sure. They were actually closed but had accidentally left the gate open and we were run off by some enthusiastic actors from the mission. They were a little freaky but it was worth it. We drove to the stadium at FSU to finish up and have some fun.
