Newborn Ty

Hello loves!  Here are a few images from my session with newborn baby Tyler.  He is so sweet and beyond adorable.  He has the most beautiful blue eyes I've seen on a newborn.  Tyler was born in November 2010, and I photographed him in the middle of December.  

He was such a wonderful baby and he had the cutest outfits and was such a little trooper.

He stayed awake for most of the shoot and then finally fell asleep towards the end which was perfect because sleeping infant portraits are my favorite.  I absolutely love how sweet babies are and every time I have the pleasure to work with children, I can't help but look at them in awe.  I still find it to be such a miracle that two people can create such wonderful and precious human being. It's such a beautiful ability that God has blessed us with.

Red Rock + Stilettos = Family Fun

First of all I have been so swamped since this past December that I have not been on top of my blogging like I use to be.  With that, I've had a few shoots slip through the cracks and not get posted on my blog, but I did post them on alimcghie.com's facebook page. So some of these posts are from shoots I did in December but didn't get a chance to post.

Better late than never though right?  (this is where you all shake your heads yes and smile)


So this post contains four gorgeous women, Red Rock Canyon, and Stilettos. 

My good friend Taylor contacted me in December about doing a family portrait of her mother and her two sisters.  They all chose for it to be out at Red Rock Canyon, and I was definitely stoked because I had not had the opportunity to photograph out there yet, plus sadly, for as long as I have lived in Vegas...I had never even been out to Red Rock.  

Well all I can say is wow.  Red Rock is beyond gorgeous and very rustic.  I love rustic scenery, especially for photographs. It made it even better that I was photographing such a lovely group of women.  These ladies were absolutely awesome to work with.  They were all so out going and the bond they all share is full of love and fun.  It is so nice to see such wonderful relationships amongst mother's and daughter's, and sister's as well.  The three sister's in the shoot reminded me of the relationship I have with my two sister's.  It's a very unique close bond that I personally don't tend to see that often.  So it is very refreshing and fun to be able to relate with them.
 
I enjoyed watching these ladies conquer the rocks and climb in their stilettos.  I think one of the highlights of this shoot was one of the daughters, Stephanie, was climbing down this large white rock and a tourist saw her and her heels and said, "Wow I think you chose the wrong shoes to hike in."  Of course Steph was polite and smiled.  But we all looked at each other like, "Really Lady...you think I chose these to hike in?" ha ha We all laughed about it the rest of the time. 





Another highlight was in one of the shots we did I had the four of them stand off to the side of the road, and as we were doing so a line of cars started to form and slowly drive by as if we were a show.  I think so people may have thought we broke down, and others were just curious.  Entertaining for sure.
I just want to say thank you to Linda, Stephanie, Taylor and Alyssa for being such wonderful fun clients to work with.  You four woman are so gorgeous and have such a beautiful bond.  I look forward to working with you all in the future.

Updates to come...pinky promise

Hello loves!
SPRING Pictures, Images and Photos
It's Spring time finally! The image up above makes me smile so I thought I'd share. :)

I have been so swamped lately that I have neglected posting new blogs.  I have about 5 posts I need to put up.  I promise they are coming very soon. I just need to find time to sit down at an actual computer so I can upload images to the posts versus working off my blackberry which is what I do 90% of the time.

So here is to making promises and following through. :)

I pinky promise to post soon. :)
