DAY FIVE OF BEAUTIFUL FAMILIES / CINCINNATI FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

I had such a great time with this family…all the kids had their own unique personalities that really came through during the shoot. There were so many to pick from, but I will stay with my “family shots only” rule for the week….

MY LAST SHOOT THIS SEASON/CINCINNATI FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER/CINCINNATI CHILD PHOTOGRAPHER

Let me start by saying what an amazing holiday shooting season this has been. I have had the honor to shoot so many kind and beautiful family’s in the last few months, it reminds me everyday that I do have the best job in the world! These kids were no exception, how wonderful they were to work with, so easy going,  just a dream! Though I usually show color when I post on my blog, because let’s face it…I LOVE COLOR..sometimes black and white is still the way to go. I think in the next few weeks I may post some of my favorite shots of the year…in black and white…I know, I know, I am really getting out of the box now ! Here are a few fun shots from our shoot, what do you think, color…black and white….you be the judge!frey-blog-2

THE GREATEST GIFT OF ALL/ CINCINNATI FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER/CINCINNATI CHILD PHOTOGRAPHER

When this lovely Mom phoned me about shooting her adorable girls before her oldest is off to college next year, I could not have been more thrilled! Then when I learned it was a birthday present for their Dad, it just made the whole shoot come together for me.I feel there is no greater gift  you can give then the gift of memories. Images, whether they come from your point and shoot or from a professional photographer, are the one gift you can give this holiday season that will last a lifetime. When I look back at the images of my own children, how I wish I had so many more then I do, they are growing so fast…..don’t miss out on documenting this time in your children’s lives, it will be gone before you know it ………

Here are a few that caught my eye…..
