New Location!!!

I love when I find a new location to shoot where no one else has been.  A friend of ours from church had some old treasures behind his place and is willing to let us take some fun images there.  I think this will be perfect when it warms up a bit to bring out some baskets of fresh flowers.  Today it was 29 degrees, but we wanted to check it out before the 13 inches of snow come our way - yikes!!!  Claudia was quite a trooper to let me take these pics, I just had to pay her $1 per outfit. Quite a bargin. :)

Sister Love

I just love how much our girls love each other.  It's amazing how much joy baby Amelia has brought into our family.  Everyone loves to spend time with her and helps out so much.  I was worried about having a 4th child and how hard it would be, its wonderful!!!  She gets so excited when they walk in the door after school and everyone runs to hug and snuggle her.  Such a gift.

Claudia

Here is one of Claudia that I just loved.  She has such pretty eyes when she smiles.  She is so full of compassion and LOTS of energy.  A total  night owl like her mommy.  :)

Naomi

Now, that it's February I am finally looking through some pics of my own girls from last October that I had shot for our Christmas card.  It's fun when I finally have a little time to sit and look their smiling faces. It's like opening a gift when I can go through files and really look at the images of them.  I have been really focusing on family lately, that is what's important to us.  We are really digging in and making changes to help us get even closer.  One recent change we have done is eliminating television from our home.  I thought this would be really hard, but it wasn't that bad and it was one of the best things we have done.  We all have more time to play and relax and don't get stuck in the trap.  Even a few minutes in the morning of watching the news could really slow down our day.  I LOVE it!!!  Here is a picture of Naomi from the day we did our Christmas pics, I am sure I will post more of all the girls as the night goes on.  Not sure how long I will stay on the computer as I have made chocolate chip cookies and I may want to dive into those soon.  :)

Jessiegirlclothing

I had to post this picture of Claudia sporting a new dress from Jessiegirlclothing's spring line because I just love her expression.  She has a hard time ever standing still and she looks so serene here.  I am also loving this new hair pretty from Simply Glam.  They make some super cute unique looking hair accessories at resonable prices.  The ladies there are very nice to work with as well which makes my job super fun!!!  We are working on a spring catalog right now for Jessiegirlclothing and I can't wait for it to go to print.  I love seeing all the beautiful clothing diplayed with such energy on the little girlies. 

Spring!

In less than 6 weeks spring will be here and I just cannot wait!!!  I love to be outdoors going for a walk and playing with my girls.  I have been spending alot of time in the studio getting ready for some spring catalog shots lately, I will be sure to post some sneak peeks.  I have been posting pics on Facebook - under the Kimberly V Photography page.  Check them out and leave some feedback.  :)  I will write more later, snuggle request is coming in...

Locations

I think I need to send a special prize to Catherine for all her wonderful suggestions on location ideas.  That was a lot of work to come up with all those creative ideas and to type that up.  Will you send me your address so I can send you a goodie????  Thanks for all the LOVE!!!  Spring is coming!!!!  Next month!!!!
