Basket Head

Well, it seems that I don't take the camera to my kids functions as much as I should. But I didn't want to miss getting some shots of my youngest during his best year yet in basketball. He has really improved on his skills this year. I think it's the tongue.....every picture I took of him, he had his tongue out....even sitting on the bench. Anyway, thought I would share a couple of them. His favorite is the basketball head one. That would be my Sam.

Gift Certificate

Maybe talking about it will make it happen......Spring is right around the corner. Warm weather, flowers in bloom, outdoor BBQ's. With that comes Mothers Day. When I think of Mothers Day, I not only think about getting the ROYAL pampering treatment...LOL...but also what to get for the mothers and grandmothers in my life. Every mom loves pictures of the ones near and dear to us. A perfect way to make that happen is purchasing a gift certificate from Close to My Heart Photography. Boy, I sound like a cheesy T.V. commercial don't I? O.K., how about this. How about a contest to go along with it. Send me your favorite picture of your mom or grandma (that you took) to jen.hansen1@cox.net The deadline will be April 15th, 2008. I will have my judges pick the most creative. The contestant that wins will receive a free sitting with Close to My Heart Photography for them and their mother and or grandmother. I would love to get generations galore in a photo!!! Can't wait to see what you come up with. Have a great weekend. Mother Nature says we should see the sun!!!!

Happy Valentines Day

I had the privledge of looking after my neice and nephew the other night. Since I don't spend as much time with them as I would like to, I take the opportunity to fit as much in as I can. Sabin is just a wonderful little girl, always on her best behavior.....and so beautiful, you just can't take your eyes off of her. Crey is just as adorable and full of s--t & vinegar. He reminds me so much of my brother it's scarey. His stories keep me laughing even days after he is gone. We made brownies. Crey loves chocolate....can't you tell. But he says "it makes him poop" I can't wait til they come again.

R & R

Oh these girls......you will probably see a lot of these two on my blog and website. They are by far the best models a photographer could ask for......AND THEY ARE ONLY 3!!!!! You make my job so easy and fun. I am working on outfits for our next photoshoot. I will be calling you soon.
