This girl….  I mean, really?  I could eat her up.  She is one of the funniest, smartest, most gorgeous girls I know… and she’s only four.  :)  I don’t think any other four year old (besides my own) crack me up as much as she does.

So… enjoy these pics… but you know there will be more of her around the holidays!

ENJOY:

Many of you saw this already on facebook, but here it is in black & white too:

Besides my own daughter…. I would have to say that this little angel is like my muse.  I love taking pictures of her (even when she is a tiny-bit cranky like she was the night I took this…)  This might be my favorite picture that I’ve taken of Madi yet… and I’ve taken a lot!

Also, below the picture is the last of the fall sessions along with information.  I cut and paste from the post that is way down there because I know some of you were looking for it:

And one of Mama & her sweet baby:

Here are my available dates for the fall as of today.  Please email me with your 1st & 2nd choices and I’ll email you back with a confirmation.  All deposits can be sent via paypal (betsy@betsymariephotography.com) and must be received within 2-3 business days to confirm your spot!

This year there will be a minimum card order of 75 cards.  Flat, folded or tri-fold.  You do not have to order cards, but if you do want them (and have me draw up a proof for you) the minimum is 75.

I’m attempting to have all the sessions in October and early November so I can have all proofs back to you before Thanksgiving.  I tried this last year, but all the rain we had put a wrench in my plans…. so we’ll try again!

Any photos I have taken over the year can also be made into a card.  Please put in your card request before Thanksgiving so I can get it ready for you to proof and send out early!

FULL SESSIONS: ($200, 2-3 outfit/location changes, 1-2 hours of picture taking, 60 plus proofs to review in on-line gallery, proofing of card, minimum print and card order–see website for more info regarding full sessions)

So…. my cousins brought all of their kids over for a cookout and to spend some time together back in JULY while we were in Michigan.  I promised them pictures on my blog shortly after… and somehow I forgot!  SO SORRY!  I edited them, had them ready to go and then just never did it.  (This kind of thing would only happen to family members!)  :)  So… these cousins are my cousins’ kids!  They are so cute and fun and my twins had the best time when they were there!

Aunt C, Kelly, Danny & Billy … so sorry!  But I hope you like!  :)

ENJOY:

And just because this picture cracked me up, I have to share:

I had a great time with all these kids at my summer mini-session!  It was darn HOT (I’m talking 105 in the shade…) so they were all troopers!  I, on the other hand, looked like I jumped in a lake by the end!  Sorry to those who came later and had to witness that!  :)  I got some great shots of everyone… and even got the quads to all look at me and smile (AT THE SAME TIME!)….   It was fun to have some new clients join in on one of these crazy mini-sessions!!  I don’t think the moms knew what they were in for!  :)

ENJOY and the proofs will be ready for you all in a few weeks (after I catch up on summer sessions from my trip!)…. phew… better get busy!

One more thing:  There are only three spots left in the fall/holiday mini sessions… and right now, I am not going to add anymore!  So– anyone who has contacted me asking about them better book soon!

Impromptu photo session tonight while babysitting our nephew ended up with a ton of cute ones… but these two were my favorites (this is my new, awesome backdrop that you’ll be seeing a lot of because I just did a mini-session using it… it’s blue one one side and white on the other)… along with my cool wood floor!  Mini-session people:  I’ll post some tomorrow!

How cute is this guy?  Do you remember the pictures I took at his birth?  Now he’s sitting up and I’m pretty certain about to crawl (sorry, Christina!)

ENJOY:
