gas getting you down?

it is me!!!  it's not the bodily function i'm talking about, it's the PRICES of the kind you put in your car, and that is a necessity if you want to get around!  it's ugly i tell ya!


anyway, i had this big long post typed up and i was all witty and stuff :P but somehow i went to save it and it deleted it and now i'm bummed.  

so to sum it up.....  with the inflation that is happening all around us, i'm trying to do my part in keeping custom photography still affordable and fun!  below are some great packages that i created for you all to enjoy!

also, i'm hoping to build a senior portfolio and add that to my new website that will shortly go live.  so tell all the grads of 2009 to give me a call!!  the deal i've created for seniors is awesome!  the cost basically covers my costs so it's quite the deal-io!  i'm really excited about this!

CHECK OUT MY NEW PACKAGES.  I'LL KEEP THESE GOING UNTIL I FILL UP FOR THE FALL!  Remember that it soon will be Christmas time and nows the time to think of family pictures for the card!

DEALS 

OH!.... and so you're not confused.  I'm adding for this short time a 10 image disk for only $100 to those of you who make an appointment with me and don't want a package.

email me at hayleebean@gmail.com to set something up!

what i've been up to

Here's a mix of a few sessions i've done and haven't gotten around to posting pictures of.  And then a few of my always naked kiddos.



These are some neighbor girls that won a free photoshoot through my church when we did a service auction.  It was so much fun.  We took these about 5 minutes away from my house.  I love this location and the lighting that night was magical!

This little guy was just adopted by one of my neighbors.  He is the sweetest thing, so cute and little.  Eye contact with a newborn is rare so I was thrilled to death when I opened this one.  He looks like an old soul trapped in this eensie little body.

Finally my ragamuffins.  Why are my kids always naked?  They do own clothes, I promise!  LOL.  Easton starts pre-school tomorrow....BIG DAY!  I can't believe it, hope he doesn't drive his teacher too crazy :)  He has A LOT of energy!

CRAZINESS

That's my life story!


I've been meaning to post these pictures for a while now.  I've been MIA.  This family is adorable and this little girl was the fastest thing on 2 feet.  But put her up high where she can't move and I was able to get some great shots.  Thanks you guys for a great night, I'll be contacting you about your album very soon!

I love taking candid pictures of mom's and their kids.  There is so much love that flows between a mom and her child, I love being able to capture that forever.  This was a sweet moment, Miss P was ready to go, she was done with me and her mom was still just loving her to pieces.  Love it!

And the whole fam.

five alive!

I had a fun night with this family!  This mom was so much fun & was just as crazy as I was to get the kids attention :)  She put full trust in me and just let me do my job which was so helpful!  Your kids are adorable and have the greatest personalities!

This little guy was pretty silly I loved this one of him.  Don't worry S, I have some nice ones of him too.  I just like photography with a little humor and personality.  It's not lacking here.

molly cakes

Trying to make my sister cry.... again :)  (i know.... i'm a mean sister)


She asked me to post more pictures of my kids and since I just did some of Easton, Molly gets her turn this time.  I can't go on about how sweet little miss molly is.  She is so mellow and laid back, happy and content.  Sooooo different from her big brother!  She's becoming more and more independent every day.  She's a little shaker and a mover and really didn't want to stay still for me to take these pictures.  I can tell that she's moving into that stage where it will be far and few between that I get a great shot of her.

When Easton was her age it was impossible to go outside and play without getting a good workout by chasing him all over the place.  Molly is completely opposite.  She is happy to hang out and she rarely goes farther than 10 feet from where I am.  She loves the little cozy coupe we bought for her this summer.

She's my little eater too.  She'll eat anything you put in front of her.  She chows green beans like it's nobody's business!  If anyone has food she immediately comes to beg.... even if it's right after she's eaten her own meal!

She's a good talker too.  She'll try to mimic anything I say.  So far, these are the words she's been able to say, over and over and over and over and over (she's a broken record):

Hi (her fave)
Bye
Mom
Dad
A-oh
Baby
Woah
Wow
yay
Please
Thanks
Me
Milk

I know I'm forgetting some.  Oh well.  On to the pictures.  This is her favorite bear to sleep with.... she has 2 but loves this one.  Oh..... and she sleeps in, which is heavenly!

she's getting really good at walking.... she wont crawl anywhere anymore.  I love the concentration it takes to make it off that rug, lol.

and one to show that she's not always sweet as peaches.  She's pretty dang good at throwing tantrums.  She rolls around on the ground and throws her self all over the place.  It's actually really funny and I have a hard time not laughing at her.

*** H family.... I'm not forgetting your sneak peak, I'll get it up soon for you.  The pictures turned out great!

out of this world....... happy

Why?  Because I actually managed to get a picture of my Easton, who is growing up and looking so much older than he should, and who is the hardest human being on the earth to take a decent portrait of.  My sweet, crazy, monkey, muscle/wild man cooperated (a little) for me the other day.  I bribed him with an Oreo cookie that you can still see remnants of on his face but oh well..... nothing a little cloning can't take care of.  Not right now though because I'm exhausted.  Just wanted to get these up and share with you all my big boy.


They are nothing fancy, we were just hanging out on the front porch, he had been swimming all morning and afternoon.

and just for an example of what I normally get:

The stare off into the distance look.... you can only print so many of these and hang them on your wall.

or, the I'm the biggest goofball silly-man you'll ever meet look.  Oh how would it be to be this flexible again.

Goodnight y'all.... If you're up reading this right now....... you should be in BED!

one of my greatest friends

I love this family to death!  I've known them for such a long time.  It's so fun to grow up and see them having kids and I was lucky that they called me to take pictures of their newest baby.  She's the cutest little thing and was so easy to photograph, she was super content to just lay there and let us do what we wanted with her.  Love it when newborns are like that.  This was so much fun for me, I've been craving to shoot a newborn again.  It had been quite a while so I was thrilled that they called.  Thanks all of you for hanging out with me.  It was fun to see you again.



I was goofing off when I came up with this idea but I really LOVE how it turned out. :)
