Baby Cole

I was so happy to have Baby Cole in the studio on Friday for his four month portraits! I did his mom's maternity portraits and its always so cool to meet the kiddos! He was definitely not in the mood for portraits when they got here-- he even cried through all of my "happy baby" tricks! After a quick snack, Cole was one of the happiest, smiliest (if that's even a word!) babies! I really had a lot of fun and I adore his faux-hawk! :)www.LongsPhotography.com

Baby Suzanna

Baby Suzanna was in the studio this week with her big brother Drew for her six month portraits. She was an absolute cutie and really cracked me up with her sideways sitting. This little girl is so determined to walk, I think her mom is in for a lot of trouble really soon!www.LongsPhotography.com

Big Boy Eli

I am seriously in denial that Eli is turning one. It really makes me feel old! I photographed his parent's wedding and it really doesn't feel like it was that long ago! Eli is so much fun to photograph-- he absolutely cracks me up every time he is here in the studio. And he now holds the record of "neatest baby". He liked the cake, but wanted no part of getting icing on himself!

Baby Allison

I had such a good time meeting baby Allison on Tuesday. She is one of those rare newborns who just doesn't cry! She was so good and sweet through everything-- I really enjoyed meeting her and her mommy!

Baby Jude

What a way to end a week of baby portraits! Two-month-old Jude was in the studio this morning for his portraits. He was one relaxed guy-- he slept through practically the entire session! He did finally wake up at the end... just in time to make lots of faces at me!

Baby Sarah Elizabeth

Sarah Elizabeth was back in the studio this morning for her three month portraits. I can hardly believe this cutie has gotten so big! She was an absolute doll-- blowing bubbles... and kisses!

Big Girl Savannah

I always title my baby plan posts with "Baby" and the child's name. Well, Savannah came in this week for her LAST baby plan session... so she's not really a baby anymore! I can't believe she will turn a year old in two weeks!

Will's 11 month portraits

This morning I was at Goodwood Museum for Will's 11 month portraits. I can't believe he has gotten so big! I really can't call him a baby anymore! He is getting to be such a wild man, I think his mom is in trouble soon!

Hunter & Nate

I am still giggling! Hunter and Nate came by the studio this afternoon for a Christmas portrait session and they had to be one of the cutest things I have ever seen! Hunter was a snowman that Nate was building!

Halloween!

It was a real who's who in the studio yesterday for Halloween! We had two cowboys, a monkey, two skunks, a hotdog, a kitty cat, a cheerleader, a ladybug, an astronaut, Scooby-Doo, a traffic light, a ninja, The Man in the Yellow Hat, a surgeon, and a zebra drop by for portraits!

Monkey on the Loose!

Olyn and I did Thatcher's Halloween portraits this evening so we can send photos to his grandparents. Not that I am at all biased.... but he is seriously the cutest monkey-- EVER! Most kids at this age really aren't in to wearing a costume, but he LOVED it! He ran around the studio stomping his feet, giggling and squealing SO loudly.

Just a reminder to everyone that we will be doing kids portraits ON HALLOWEEN! Its a quick 15 minute session with online proofing and your choice of a 5x7-- only $15! Many of you have heard Tammy talking about us on Star 98 and Halloween time slots are going quickly! We would love to see you and your kiddos on the 31st-- so call and schedule an appointment!

Baby Andrew

I was busy in the studio again today as Baby Andrew came by with his parents for his three month portraits. Andrew was so sweet and mellow-- I wish all the babies that came by the studio were this good!

Baby Joseph

I was busy in the studio again this morning-- Joseph came by for his three month portraits. Joseph was a bit out-of-sorts this morning, thank goodness his mom and dad didn't mind being in the portraits!

Baby Savannah

Savannah and her mommy Sarah came by the studio yesterday for Savannah's 10 month portraits. Its so hard to believe she is so big already! As always, I had an absolute blast with Savannah!

Will's 9 month portraits

I had a sunrise portrait session this morning in Carrabelle for Will's 9 month session. Normally babies love playing in the sand, but Will just wasn't feeling it. We changed the plan a little bit and managed to still include the scenery. :)

Baby Sarah Elizabeth

Baby Sarah Elizabeth came by the studio this morning for her one-month portraits. She is so sweet-- and tired! We had to fight just to get her to wake up!

Baby Daisy

I spent my morning at Baby Daisy's house for her newborn portraits. She is so cute and tiny-- less than a week old! She is an amazingly good-natured infant and was so alert and sweet throughout the entire session. Its hard to believe her mom was here only a few weeks ago for maternity portraits!Big Brother Marcus was a riot-- I just couldn't leave him out! http://www.longsphotography.com/

Hunter

Hunter came by the studio to continue his baby plan-- this time for his six month portraits. Not only is he a total cutie, but he is so good natured! The entire session he never let out a single cry!


Ok... well maybe he did get a LITTLE tired of photos...

Baby Jason

Baby Jason came by the studio yesterday for a nap... I mean his newborn portrait session. I have never seen a baby this content to sleep anywhere! From the looks of things, he is letting his mommy get some rest! Honestly, the only way to keep this guy awake is to keep him naked! Thank goodness its still so warm in Tallahassee!

Baby Katalina

If ever I have met a baby that should be a model, its Baby Katalina. At only 21 days old, she is probably the most relaxed, calm and serene infant I have ever seen. She was content to lay just about anywhere, to have her clothes changed numerous times and to be moved all around to get the right angle. The only cry she made was when we were done!

Baby Eli

I was off to a gloomy start this morning when one of my former brides, Melanie, brought her baby boy in for a portrait session. Baby Eli absolutely lights up a room! He had me in stitches the whole time he was here!

Baby Joseph

Ok-- I really do try to only blog a small number of images from portrait sessions, but I really couldn't narrow it down for Baby Joseph! At almost three weeks old, he was such a sweet model for his session yesterday. I think mostly because his mom warned me that he wasn't always the most cooperative model, he decided to prove her wrong!

Baby Devenney

Baby Devenney came by the studio today for her 3 month portraits. I think I must be unpopular with the babies this week-- I just couldn't get her to crack a smile! Although she was not in the greatest of moods, she is such a cutie pie I think we got some gorgeous images!


Here are a few favs:

It's alive! It's alive!

After months of work, the new website is finally live! Wooo! We have had a few kinks in the last 24 hours getting everything to work properly, but it should be fully operational now. We would love for everyone to check it out and let us know what you think! http://www.longsphotography.com/


The shopping cart is still being finalized, so hopefully we will go live with it in the next few weeks!


If you see something with the new site that you think could use improvement, or that you feel isn't working properly, please email and let us know! We want the site to be as easy as possible for everyone!

Will is back!

I got to play with baby Will again today! It was time for Will's six month portraits, so Natalie and I raced over to Dorothy B. Oven to beat the rain storm and get some outdoor portraits. Will is such a cutie, but he loves to torment me by laughing and smiling only when I put the camera down! Despite his best efforts, I managed to get a lot of adorable shots!

Baby Will

Baby Will came into the studio this week for the first session in his "Watch Me Grow" package. Will is such a laidback baby! He was incredibly sweet for only being 12 weeks old, and I think we captured a few portraits that really capture what an angel he is! I am so excited to spend a year photographing Will!

Savannah Jane

Yesterday, I helped my friends Sarah and Eli welcome their new daughter, Savannah Jane, to the world. For her very first photo shoot, four-day-old Savannah was quite the model!

The Bennett twins were back in the studio for their Christmas card session today. It was trouble times two! They were excellent models-- despite teething and empty tummies!

Miss Briley

I photographed six week old Briley yesterday for her birth announcements. She was born four weeks early and is still sooo tiny!

Here are some design mock ups I did for her birth announcement. I have changed all of the birth info and some of the name to protect her and her family.

A Busy Week

This past week, Olyn and I covered three weddings and did portraits for the cutest twin girls in town.

I photographed the wedding of Amber and Mike at Los Robles park in Tallahassee. The couple's wedding was filled with family touches, as both the bride's aunt and cousin sang during the ceremony. The couple danced the night away at the near-by Women's Club.

Vendors:
Reception: Tallahassee Women's Club
Catering: Magenta Catering

Olyn traveled to Panama City to photograph the destination wedding of Audrey and Dustin. The couple were surrounded by their close-knit families as they exchanged vows at sunset.

I had a rare weekday wedding for the vows of Michelle and Phil. The avid Steelers fans traveled down from Ohio to enjoy the emerald waters and white sand of the Gulf Coast.

The Bennett twins came to the new studio for their debut portrait session. It is amazing how infants so young can have such distinctly individual personalities!
