Birthday Boy

As you may know, I offer a couple of portrait packages. One of those packages is the "Watch Me Grow" package which includes chronicles a child's first year with sessions at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. One of my favorite little subjects, Joshua, has been on the Watch Me Grow plan even before there was a plan! Today is his first birthday so we had his 12 month session last weekend. It has been such a pleasure to watch Joshua, and all of my Watch Me Grow babies, grow from tiny babies to toddlers. The time passes so fast and before you know it, they are back for their next session. I miss not seeing them so often when their plan is over--when most go to having sessions every six months instead of every three months. So in honor of Joshua's first birthday, here is a look at his first year:

3 months


6 months


9 months


12 months


And here's Joshua enjoying his first taste of birthday cake in the studio. As you can see, he LOVED it and we were able to capture some great memories of him enjoying it. Happy First Birthday Joshua!!

If you are interested in the details of the baby plan (or the maternity/newborn plan) email me at jtwagoner@alltel.net. Also, just a reminder, if you have proofs but have not placed your order, I need your order by Thanksgiving to be able to ensure delivery before Christmas. Thanks everyone for continuing to allow me to capture memories for you and for sharing those memories with everyone around you!!

Ready, Set, Christmas!

No, I haven't forgotten about you all! Here at Upper Case Photography & Design it's just like the mall--the day after Halloween begins the rush towards Christmas! I've been busy with holiday sessions, designing Christmas cards, and creating gifts for clients to give at the holidays.

But I wanted to take a moment to let you know who won the Halloween costume contest and update you with a few images from my recent sessions. The contest winner is Heather Hall. Congratulations Heather, you have won a 10x20 storyboard with images from your next session! She sent this photo of her whole family dressed for Halloween--the kids are Lilo and Stitch and mom and dad are Donald and Daisy duck.
I really enjoyed seeing all the beautiful kids (and some adults!) dressed in everything from Spiderman and Ninjas to Monkeys and Ladybugs. It made checking my email such a pleasure!

Here are a few images from recent sessions. I'm so lucky to meet all these sweet kids!





Finally, if you have your proofs but haven't ordered yet, make sure I get your order soon so you'll have everything you need in time for the holidays!
