It's Senior Time...








I'm at a time in my life where my sons are always home for dinner, sleepovers are decided by me, kisses are still okay, and the house is full of noise. This past month, made me remember to not take it for granted.  Why? It was Senior Portrait time. Time for those getting ready to take that next step to have that moment in time captured in a photograph. This year, Senior Portraits are especially special because my nephew Collin will be graduating in May. Collin is like the little brother that I never had. I am still looking at our session going "How did this happen? Where did the time go?". To Collin, Samantha, and Benito, thank you for allowing me to capture this time in your life. I truly enjoyed photographing each of you. Good luck in all that you do and may life greet you with many wonderful things!


"How did it get so late so soon?
It's night before it's afternoon.
December is here before it's June.
My goodness how the time has flewn.
How did it get so late so soon?"

Ms Valentina, nice to meet you!

If this blog was my child, I would have been arrested by now for child neglect and abandonment. What has happened since my last posting? Let's see, that would be the month, the YEAR, my waistline, and well, many new pictures. This year has been a great year for Taylor Holbrook Photography. It started off with new clients and is continuing to grow. March has been especially wonderful. I have stated in the past that I wanted to stay at three to four sessions a month, however as much as things are taking off, that opinion died a few weeks ago. May we have a moment of silence for the 3-4 sessions per month idea? No? Yeah, too corny.
Back to the reason for me getting up off my hind-quarters and bloggjng today. This week I got to meet a very special little "peanut" and her name is Valentina. Valentina is gorgeous, of course with the genes that were bestowed upon her, it would be pretty hard for her not to be. Her session taught me a few things. Number 1. Always bring a big garbage bag to place under the backdrops (I'll let you figure that one out) Number 2. Pictures of babies that are awake are just as cute as the ones where they are asleep ( maybe even better).  All in all, it was a great time that really started my day off well.
To the two people following this blog: Thank you and I promise to try to do a better job of blogging. Ta-ta for now...
