Dear Family,

Instead of paying Sears gobs of money for pictures, I finally took it upon myself to take Shaylee's 1 year photos myself. I am posting the pictures here. Please email or call me and let me know what ones you would like in what size. Once I know what everyone wants, I will put the order into the photo lab (same place our wedding photos where done, so they will be nice) and them mail them off to everyone. The photos will have a nice luster finish on them to protects from spills and finger prints. Thank you!

Number 1. This one was totally by accident, and I am glad I caught it!

Number 2. This one was on her favorite blanket.

Number 3. This one is the same as the above, but I put a soft focus on it.

Number 4. We took this one and the ones that follow at the Paine Art Center Gardens.
Someone off camera that was passing by made her smile for me.

Number 5. Shaylee loved to walk among the tulips!

Number 6. I don't remember what kind of flowers these where, but they match her eyes!

Number 7. Same as above, but I put a "glow" on it...gives the picture a dreamy look.

Number 8. This is the same as above picture, but with a soft focus effect.

Number 9. This is a really nice one of Mercedes.


Number 10. Another really nice candid of Mercedes.


I hope everyone likes them! I think they look more natural than a forced pose at Sears, but that is just my opinion. Thanks for being patient! - Cori
