Memories Portraits {blogged} » Peeks into Memories | Knoxville Children’s Photographer, Nancy Belden

This little buddy was the perfect listener for his session with the bunnies. Total ham and a great poser! What a cutie!

Hey guys, this is Heather (the assistant/ graphics gal/ receptionist/ whatever else needs to be done person) taking over the blog for tonight.  I brought my daughter Lexi into work with me one morning last week and Nancy photographed her with the bunnies.  Let me just tell you that not all kids warm up to the bunnies at first, and Lexi was definitely one of those kids, lol!  This little girl is 20 months old, and definitely has a mind of her own.  But Nancy worked her magic, and within just a few minutes she was ready to take the whole lot home with us (I’m sure our dogs would love that!).  She carried those bunnies to and fro all over the studio, and Nancy captured some priceless images.  So, for all of those parents who have called me to ask about the kiddos being afraid, fear not.  Yes, it does happen, but they’ve all warmed up with just a little encouragement.  We haven’t had a session go awry yet.

Here are just a few of my favorites.  The bottom piece is a Storyboard that I created to hang in her room.  It will be printed as a 10×20 and mounted on a floating wood frame with a beveled edge.  This is a brand new product that we are so excited to offer!  We have placed our order for some pieces already and as soon as we receive them, I’ll make sure to get some images up on the blog. 

I also think I’ll do a post sometime soon for you on retouching. It’s a service that we perform on all of our images, and my daughter is the perfect little model for it. She has severe eczema and while we do everything we can to minimize it, it is very much a part of our lives. I’ve got some mad Photoshop skills because of her, and I’ll make sure to give you a little preview. Just because I want you to know what we will do for you too…

For now though, here’s my beautiful Lex.

I have been photographing this little Princess for a few years now, and she never lets us down. She’s a great little listener, and posing just comes natural! Mom and Dad are great, and thank goodness for Dad’s bunny wrangling skills!

This little fellow was so easy to photograph, though he kept Mom hopping. This is his third session in his Baby’s First Year Program and, boy, did he love the bunnies! Adorable!

This little fellow is finishing up his last session in his Baby’s First Year Program. Big brother wanted to get in on the action with the bunnies. These guys have moved to Chattanooga from Knoxville, but they promise to come back for outdoor pictures this spring! I just love this family!

This little princess is just starting her Baby’s First Year Program. She was so sweet with the bunnies… what a precious sight! Big brother even got in on the action, too cute!

These cousins were so cute together. They had a blast with the bunnies, though little man Brady didn’t want to sit still for a second, lol! Annabelle and little Sadie did their best to keep Brady on track. Very Fun!

This was a first time session for these little cuties, even for the bunnies! Everyone did a great job. We got some great shots, which I’m sure Mom is anxious to see. Great way to start the Easter season!
