Today we had little Arianna in the studio. She was SO cute!! And very talkative! Her little sister Rebecca was so sweet as well! She was very good as she watched her little sister get photographed. We can't wait for her parents to see the rest of the images!!

Leah and Alexa

We photographed Leah and Alexa--- they were incredible!! Leah smiled the ENTIRE time she was here and her new little sister Alexa just smiled away too. Not too often do you get to see a beautiful connection between sisters especially at the ages of 5-years and 3-months. We were also lucky enough to get a family portrait... Dad, Mom, Leah and Alexa all had perfect smiles! We can't wait for the girls to come back in for more!

JDRF Family

Liana

Today Liana came in for her 3-month session, and she was amazing! The faces she made were so cute!! She was probably one of the most active 3-month olds we've had in the studio! She was so strong... she kept turning over and trying to stand. She has a great connection with her Mommy and Daddy... we can't wait for you guys to see the rest!!

The Donovan Family

We had so much fun today with the Donovan family! The images are awesome! What beautiful children...

Molly had nothing but smiles the WHOLE TIME!!

Giuliona

Giuliona came in for her session on Wednesday morning. It was a crazy shoot!! We started outside and ran around inside and of course... ended with a big orange lolly pop to match her outfit!

Tianna

Today we had so much fun photographing Tianna! She was awesome! She had a great personality and she was very polite. To top it off... she got a HUGE pink lolly pop at the end of her session!

Krystal and Fred

Today we photographed Krystal and Fred... they are expecting a little boy on August 30th - they are waiting to name him until they see him, how cute!

Krystal was awesome! She brought tons of clothing options and she let us do anything and everything. She was glowing and every time she smiled Fred smiled... there was Definitely a beautiful connection this morning. We can't wait for them to see the rest of the images!!

Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation

We are so lucky to be involved with the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation! Lisa, the Special Events Coordinator for JDRF Rochester Chapter, came to our studio to ask for our help!

We will be photographing 17 children in the Rochester area effected by Juvenile Diabetes to help raise money for their November 5th fundraising gala.

We've already photographed Max, a super cute and friendly child. He will be the main image on the event's invitation. He was so cute when he came in! He was a natural for the camera!

(We will be photographing his family in September, as they are an honorary family for the event)

Megan

This was Megan's 9 month session and she was such a pleasure to photograph again.  You might remember her as Miss November...  I photographed Megan all over the studio yesterday, I am sure we tuckered her out!  Check out more of her images on Facebook.  

Evie and Evan

Yesterday I photographed boyfriend and girlfriend, Evie and Evan.  I can't believe how many beautiful images we captured.  This one especially is my favorite!  

Kaiya

Kaiya came into today for her 6 month portrait session and boy is she beautiful.  She brought her whole family along to join in the fun!  I have never seen a 6 month old with such a personality, she knew exactly what she wanted...it was awesome!  Check out our Facebook page for another image.

Ayden and Destiny

Yesterday I photographed brother and sister, Aidan and Destiny. It was so beautiful to watch how they interacted with each other. That bond was captured completely in this image!

Jonathan

Today I photographed Jonathan for his 3 year portraits.  He was so much fun to photograph and so photogenic!  Stephanie has the most beautiful children (4!)  I can't wait to photograph the other (stay tuned for Sarah's session next) ones.  He smiled the entire time, with the exception of a few sticking out his tongue shots:)  Check out our facebook to see some more images... this is one of my favorites.

James

Today I was lucky enough to photograph James.  I photographed his Mom and Dad's wedding a couple of years ago, let's keep the tradition going!  Thank you so much for letting me experiment with some new ideas, they came out great!  I love this image because it is so unique and also captures James' personality in his Carhartts:)  I have always loved photographing Meagen's family because she gives me complete freedom, which is amazing!  I can't wait to see your reaction to the rest of the images.

Alex

This was Alex's first visit to BabyLove, and he had a blast!  What a beautiful baby boy and a dream to photograph. He had such a fun personality that really showed in his images.  We can't wait to see you again Alex!

August

August came in yesterday for his 3 month portrait session.  He is named for his mom and dad's anniversary month...how cute!  He was all smiles for the camera, we can't wait to see his mom's reaction to this image.

Happy Portrait Session Experience

The Genesee Valley Parent Magazine had a great article about bad experiences with photographers... they suggested you ask your family and friends about their experiences by asking the following questions... We thought we would just cut to the chase and answer them for you...

If you'd like to read the full article, you can see it on-line by visiting http://www.gvparent.com/

There was an inset that mentioned to "Ask friends and family where they've had good portrait experiences; then use the phone or internet to get answers to the following questions:"I'm going to list the questions, and give my answers!!

1) Is a minimum number of poses required?
BabyLove: Never. If you do not like what we captured during the session, we will always be more than willing to do another session!

2) Are photographers patient, quick on the trigger, and adept at making children smile?BabyLove: We know it takes patience, practice, and laughter to have a successful portrait session. Your baby or child is going to run the session… after all it only takes a split second to get that perfect image.

3) Does the studio have a play area for use before and after the shoot?

BabyLove: We have a private changing room for you and your baby and or children with a changing table, extra wipes, and a basket of toys. For your review session you have a private room to view the images in so your baby can crawl, sit, play or eat…

4) Are fun props available?
BabyLove: Yes. We do prefer a more simple image that focuses on your baby or child and his or her personality. We use props, but we tend to use them pretty lightly unless you ask otherwise. We also love when you bring your own props in that are important to you and your baby.

5) Are backdrops quickly interchangeable and of high quality?
BabyLove: When you come in we will go through your outfits and figure out which outfits will look best. We will already have a few backgrounds set up prior to your arrival so your baby wont have to wait for anything.

6) What special effect options are available?
BabyLove: Our award-winning artistic director can do the basic conversions into black and white, sepia etc… but what she creates is art. Every image that she works on is different. She does not work with “actions,” she makes decisions based on what you want and what will look best for your particular image.

7) How much will this cost?
BabyLove: We have packages that are designed to fit everyone’s needs and budget. We have packages starting with two units (8x10, 5x7, or 8 wallets) and packages that include albums. We also have a NO-INTEREST PAYMENT PLAN option that allows you to break your payments into equal monthly payments so you get; Anything and Everything you want with a comfortable deposit and affordable monthly payments… all with no interest.

8) When will the portraits be ready for pick up?
BabyLove: You will come in for a review session about a week after your portrait session so we have time to create samples for you so you can see what is available. After you come in to your review session and place your order, we like to say your portraits will be ready within three weeks but… let’s be honest here… we know you want them sooner so we’ve been getting them back within a week and a half… we try our hardest to get you your portraits as soon as we can!

I hope you've found this information to be helpful - and if you have any other questions, don't hesitate to get in touch with me!

Sweet Molly... 12 Months

Jessica Rose

I just finished photographing Jessica.  She is 3 months old!  This is her second visit to BabyLove and we just love her here!  Jessica's uncle is in the military so this portrait is dedicated to him.

Kevin and Kyle

I had so much fun photographing Kyle and Kevin.  They were two completely boys, each so photogenic.  I chose this portrait because I love how the brothers are interacting with each other and the vintage feel the block give.  I can't wait to see mom's reaction to these images! 

Baby Violet

Baby Violet came in on Saturday for her first portrait session.  She was a great model and so wide awake for being only 6 weeks.  In this image she was photographed with her daddy.  I love this image because he looks so happy and proud of his tiny baby.   I can't wait to see his reaction to this image!

Talia's 6 month session

I just finished photographing Talia's 6 month session.  She is part of our Year-Love Series, where she is photographed at her 3m, 6m ,9m and 12m milestones.  She was great!  She has that type of face where she can smile, pout, and even cry and she still looks adorable!  I can't wait for her mom and dad to see these images on Friday.  It is so fun to see her grow up through the portraits we take here at BabyLove!
