Consider yourself warned . . . this post might give you baby fever! This little guy is so beautiful, and the first image here just makes you wanna pick him up and hold him, doesn’t it? This little guy was a fresh little newborn, only three days old when we shot his newborn portraits. When I look back at these pics, I think he looks so much older than three days in the awake shots . . . he’s so alert! I was also excited to get to use for the very first time two crochet projects that I crocheted this past week . . . the green swaddler/wrap and the little blue chunky yarn hat. I can’t wait to make some more DIY props for my babies!
Enjoy these sneak peeks, Mom and Dad (and everyone else.)

* this first one is my favorite from the session *





Can’t leave out a few with his big brother!


This year, I am again offering custom Valentine cards with your child’s portrait and custom greeting on them. And this year I have added bookmarks to the collection!
There are three options for Valentine cards:
(1) Wallet-sized photo cards, with rounded corners, are single-sided 2.5×3.5-inch portraits of your child with his/her custom greeting and photo on the Valentine. You may use any image from your 2011 portrait session with Sondra Kay Photography.
(2) Deluxe Valentine cards in a generous 4×5 size are printed on fine linen paper and are double-sided. These are not photo cards, but are press-printed cards. Envelopes are included. You may use any image from your 2011 portrait session with Sondra Kay Photography.
(3) NEW Bookmarks are much like the deluxe cards (press-printed, double sided) but are a fun 2×7 bookmark size. You may use any image from your 2011 portrait session with Sondra Kay Photography.
All cards are sold in sets of 24 cards and add’l sets of 4 cards/set can be added to your order. Prices start at $15 for bookmarks and photo cards, and $25 for deluxe cards.
Interested in Valentines but didn’t have a portrait session in 2011? Or, do you want your child’s Valentine card pics to be a bit festive for V-Day? No problem! Give me a call and inquire about booking a mini-shoot on the weekend of Feb. 4th for just $65, which includes one set of bookmarks or photo cards and 20-30 min. of session time at my favorite outdoor location. You have the option to purchase other prints and products from the shoot as well.
Card orders must be submitted to me by Feb. 7th. Call me to find out more details about how to view your images from your 2011 session to choose images for your card, or to book a mini-shoot for some new images!



Other bookmark designs are available as well! Call with questions . . . I am happy to help!

This little gal’s parents are coming in to my office tonight to preview images from her recent session, but I wanted to post a few of my favs on the blog to share with you . . . I know they will make you smile, too. I love the Christmas hat that her mom had for her session . . . I might have to get one of those for my baby hat collection!




Wrapping up 2011 . . . just wanted to share some of my favorite images of 2011 sessions, in random order. Enjoy!



How can this not make you smile every time?!?



























Sneak peek of some shots from a recent pregnancy session in downtown Maryville . . . and you know that means that there will soon be sneak peeks of their newborn son in the coming weeks (check back in February for that!) I see this family every year for Fall portraits, so this year I was excited to hear that they will soon be a family of four. Looking forward to seeing you guys again this winter and photographing all four of you! Enjoy your sneak peeks, and enjoy the last month of your pregnancy.
