Recent portraits!

Missing teeth are so cute! My kids aren’t quite there yet! Although my daughter did fall down and bump her tooth yesterday, I was a little worried we might be missing some teeth sooner than we had planned!

I am really proud of this capture! (above) Mostly because this young man didn’t want anything to do with me or having his picture taken!

I have plenty of these lolli pops for some more sessions! We can break these out at the end because little mouths will get all dirty from the colors

Can you guess how old she is?

For Mothers’ Day: Handbags, Totes, Zippered pouches and more!

These custom portrait bags make such a great gift for the grandmas in your life! Or even for yourself as a special Mothers’ Day treat! You can order one of these for yourself featuring your favorite images from an SLM Studios portrait session. But do hurry because orders for these need to be submitted within the next week to arrive in time for Mothers Day! Wouldn’t it be great to have a fresh new bag for the warmer weather!?

Smaller items such as coin purse or a cosmetic bag are also available for only $30 and $45, respectively. Those are very popular as well!

These are a few of the pictures I featured last year to help you remember what they looked like. I will feature new bag images and styles in a few weeks, so check back in to see more!

Landscaping

I was really excited to create a head-shot for local landscaper Jeff Hamons (of Hamons Landscaping)…he did a really cool job of incorporating that into his webpage, and I just wanted to show you all what that looks like because I am really proud of it

Jeff is a very nice guy, and I also photographed his sweet family last fall. I’m sure that he’ll be extremely busy when the weather finally turns nicer here in Kansas City!

New backdrop for the studio :-)

A gorgeous new backdrop has arrived at the studio! You guys are going to love this SO much! It’s kind of casual, kind of modern, but not un-traditional, the colors are great for many of the clothes families like to wear for their portraits.

This is kind of a sneak-peak of it! LOL My daughter didn’t give me a whole lot to work with!

This will be great for spring/summer/winter portraits. I’ll be at least one new backdrop for the fall season as well. I’m very very excited about that!

Expect the spring email newsletter to hit your email-box soon! I’m a little behind on getting that out, so if you’d like to sign up for the email list just fill out the contact form on the main slm studios website so I’ll have your email address. And if you are having a baby this year, it would be a good idea to call as soon as possible to make sure that I can reserve a date for your maternity/newborn portraits. Some mommies are really planning ahead, and you don’t want to miss out!
