Baby Kaiden: 2 Weeks Old

Photographing newborns is quickly becoming my favorite photography subject.  I love to snuggle with brand new babies!  This little guy came to visit me at just 2 weeks old.  He went from wide eyed to sleepy in a matter of moments and gave me some great shots.  Congratulations to Richie and Kasey on your new bundle of joy!

Launa Mae: 2 Years Old

This little sweetie was just as cute as she could be on a hot afternoon out in the Harmony courtyard.  Launa Mae’s grandmother requested a photo session as a birthday surprise for the mommy.  Although smiles were hard to come by, Launa proved to be extremely photogenic.  Who needs to smile when they are this cute?!?!  She reminded me so much of my youngest son who is on the shy side with strangers yet gives great looks for the camera.  Launa eventually warmed up to me – a little – and we had a great session.  Word has it that grandma couldn’t wait until mom’s birthday to show off these pictures!  I can’t blame her.

Seniors – What to Wear

Clothing inspires me to take pictures.  My poor kiddos know this all too well!  When I pick out a super cute outfit, throw in some accessories, and find a cool location, then I’ve got a recipe for a photo shoot! 

Seniors, I have here some outfits that were put together with a senior photo shoot in mind.  I still need to fill a couple of spots for the 2011 senior rep job.  Contact me asap!  It won’t be long until school starts back up so get those Senior pictures done now!

Marty & Sharon: 10 Year Anniversary

Marty and Sharon met later in life after their children were nearly grown and out of the house.  Marty with two sons and Sharon with two daughters.  What evolved between them was a caring and understanding relationship that bypassed the triumphs that life had already presented.  These two are celebrating their ten year wedding anniversary this year.  I was more than happy to give them this set of pictures that truly demonstrates their loving relationship!

Wanted: Class of 2011 Senior Reps

You may be asking yourself, “what the heck is a Senior Rep?”.  Well basically, what I am looking for is a high school senior to represent Christina D. Photography at their school.  This lucky senior will be responsible for showing off their awesome photos from the photo session with me.  The best part is the session fee is waived!  The senior will get a package that includes assorted prints, a portfolio book of all the images, a senior card to pass out to friends and referral cards.  If any friend of the senior completes a shoot with me, that senior will also receive print credit towards any session, past or future. 

Parents, this is a great opportunity to get those senior portraits done at no cost!!!  I am looking for one male and one female from each high school in Saint Cloud.  The session must take place before August 10th.  Contact me via the contact page on this website.

And because a post is always better with a picture, here is a sneak peak from a recent photo session.  It counts since one of these people is a senior (not the high school kind!).
