Monday Location Information- Chicks and Bunnies!

Hi everyone- so sorry to keep you waiting on me tonight- wanted to give you updated chicks ad bunnies location info! This weekend was a little crazy with juggling things around, and I am so excited that the weather is looking clear (although a bit windy) for us tomorrow.   We are going to meet on a beautiful wooded lot close to my house. I did some mini sessions there Friday, and it was just perfect, so I'm excited to shoot there again tomorrow. For those of you with a GPS, just put in the intersection of Stonehenge Drive and Pemberton Lane. My explorer will be parked on the side of the road :)  If you are coming from Salisbury, come down Pemberton like you are going to the park, pass the park on your left....continue to the stop and make a right onto Pemberton....go a couple miles and you'll see me parked on the right.

Chicks and Bunnies- Update!

So, in looking at the forecast it is not looking good for this weekends Easter mini sessions. I have gone back and forth on a location all week, and sadly, it looks like we are going to have to do them in studio Saturday and Sunday.  My home studio address is 5944 Tally Ho Lane, Salisbury MD 21801.  I am located about two miles from Pemberton Park to give you a basic idea of the area, off of Pemberton Drive.  IF THE WEATHER LOOKS NICE SATURDAY OR SUNDAY, PLEASE CHECK THE BLOG FOR POSSIBLE LOCATION CHANGES BEFORE HEADING THIS WAY!  I am planning on shooting outdoors on Monday, and location will depend on how soggy it is looking on Sunday afternoon. Specific location information will be posted Sunday early evening for the Monday sessions, but location will either be at or near the home studio ---really hoping to get outdoors for those.


IF YOU ARE SCHEDULED TO SHOOT ON SATURDAY OR SUNDAY AND WOULD LIKE TO SWITCH TO SO THAT YOU CAN SHOOT OUTDOORS---- please email me asap at kristinstaples@comcast.net.  Because of the weather,  I will be offering to do sessions Friday afternoon starting at around 3:30, and shooting as late as needed (or until it gets dark) and will also be making some additional time slots available on Monday.

Perfection in Purple!


This sweet little Miss was the perfect way to bring in Spring for KSP. She was just adorable, and I have to say- purple was definitely her color.  She couldn't have been any more adorable, with her pouty lips and beautiful curls, and I could have played with her all day.  It was wonderful meeting you Miss T, and your mom and auntie too- enjoy your sneak peek :)

Heartbreaker!

This handsome little one will be breaking hearts all over town one day, but for now, it's simple- he loves his mommy, daddy, and cars!  I think my little man might claim a close second in his heart, and have a feeling they will be getting into some serious trouble together over the years!  Watch out for these baby blues if you have daughters, and consider yourself warned!

Little Miss Blue Eyes!


This gorgeous little girl takes right after her incredibly handsome older brother with her stunning eyes and adorable smile.   They will certainly be keeping their parents on their toes as they get older. I still cant believe she is eight months old already--these babies are all growing up way too quickly around me--i need a pause button! Enjoy your sneak peek momma, and if little miss blue eyes gets 20 comments on her blog post, KSP will gift her an 8x10 with her order!

Missing Her....


What do you do when one of your best friends has a baby and lives in NJ?  You drive up there to meet her!  My schedule has been crazy lately, so unfortunately we had to make just one day of it, but it was so worth it to catch up , and to meet this little beauty, who looks so much like her brother when he was a newborn!  I am missing her already, and it's only been a few days....love you all!

Beautiful Day, Beautiful Baby to Be!


Today was so warm---and I was so excited when my afternoon maternity session agreed that we should take advantage of the weather and take a few shots outside. It was a beautiful day to capture some maternity portraits for this beautiful couple, who undoubtedly , will be having a beautiful baby girl!  I'm already jealous of her pink cowboy boots---I'll give you all a peek at those after her newborn session!  Enjoy our sneak peek mom and dad, and remember, with 20 comments on the blog, KSP will gift you a complimentary 8x10 from your session :)

Simple and Sweet!


I love the simplicity of this first image, in the classic black and white style. It was the last shot from our session, and I just love how peaceful he looks on momma's arm. And the second image was one of the first i shot of this bright eyed boy---he was too sweet for words! So glad that mom and I were able to get together to have his photos taken before I left for vacation!  Enjoy your sneak peek, and remember, with 20 comments on the blog, little man will get a complimentary 8x10 for his nursery!

Sisters!


I couldn't tell you who i was more excited to see---precious little K, her adorable big sister, or their amazing momma. She didn't sneak into any pics, but her girls definitely take after her, and couldn't be any more beautiful. It was wonderful catching up, and getting to meet your sweet baby girl! Griffin promises he will behave better on their second date--he was just testing little K to see if she would stick around for the hard times :)  Love you guys!

Welcome to the World Sweet C!


I have just been dying to meet this little munchkin!  She was born right before I went on vacation with my family, so I didn't get a chance to meet her, but it was such a wonderful thing to come home to. Not only did I get to see my best friend, but I got to see her amazing little sister, and meet her gorgeous new baby niece.  Can't complain with a day like that!  So without further adieu, let me introduce the beautiful Miss C!
