J. Passon Artistic Portraiture

[ and baby makes 4 ]

I just love this family.  The moment that I found out they were expecting baby number two, I was thrilled and couldn't wait for their pregnancy session...and newborn session in February!  They are two of the sweetest people I know, and their daughter is adorable.  I photographed S when she turned 2 in July and of course I had to get a few of her today too as well--I can't resist those blue eyes! 

I have to give credit to another photographer because this first image was not an original idea.  I often find inspiration in Carrie Sandoval's work.

[ dimples & eye lashes ]

I still remember adorable P having her deep dimples and long eye lashes when I did her newborn session at just a few days old.  I'm so happy that both of those adorable features have stuck around!  It was freezing, okay--more than freezing, outside but we managed to do a bit of running around.  I love her strawberry hat and sweater!  Enjoy...

 

[ growing fast ]

If you are one of my regular blog stalkers, I mean visitors, then you probably remember Baby K from July.  Time is flying fast and he is already over 4 months old!  I just received my new camera (which I am SO excited about) and he was my first session using it.  Both he and the camera performed beautifully...and I have to say for a last minute session when he was tired and hungry, Baby K did so great--I can't wait until he can sit up!  Oh what fun we will have!  Until then...enjoy these...

  

[ blog worthy ]

Her gallery is completed and a little birdie told me that this is one of dad's favorites (actually it was dad himself)...and he thinks it is definitely "blog worthy"--as do I--so here is another adorable image to share with the world!

[ quickly approaching]

The Holiday Ordering Deadline:  December 5th, 2008.  Time is ticking...

[ more baby blues ]

As promised, here are some more images from my session with adorable, blue-eyed baby A.  She was such a happy little gal and her parents were fantastic!  I look forward to our next session...enjoy!

[ so in love... ]

With this little girl!  Those eyes, that expression, her sweater--perfection!  I'll post more from her session later this week.

[ winners! ]

Below are the two winners from the Halloween contest.  There were several adorable entries, it was hard to choose.  Each winner will receive a complimentary 5x7 print from their next session!

Little Miss P was entered by her "Poppy", so a big thank you to him for participating! What an adorable pirate--and those dimples are to die for!:

 

And I just couldn't resist the caption that C's mom added to her email:

The title of the email entry was "Can't go trick or treating, I have to work tonight!" and this was the caption she included: "C came to her mommy's place of employment, dressed up as a pumpkin for Halloween and decided to go right to work.  Forget about trick or treating, I need to work on this file.  She's hired!!!!"     

[ yes your home will work ]

Many people think that they need a big house in order to do a session at their home...that is simply not the case.  The below pictures were taken in an average sized home while we were on vacation this summer.  There were huge windows on two walls in the living room which gave me a great amount of light.  I just used the piano bench for sitting and and the couch for standing.  You would be surprised at how easily your home will work!

[ a few more peeks ]

Here are a few more from a recent session last week.  I LOVE this first one, he is too cute!  Little sister is oh so serious--one of these days I will get a crack up laugh from her--I promise.  For now I will enjoy her serious look and big brown eyes...Enjoy
