So I promised more mini sessions in 2012 and this will be the first one…I’ve never done Valentine’s Day sessions before and they are extremely limited since Ethan plays basketball every weekend in a league in Julesburg on 2 different teams and I have vowed to not work on Sundays anymore.  I have some slots open on Saturday, February 4th in the afternoon.  Email me @ reichman@embarqmail.com  if you are interested.  Sessions will be about 10-15 minutes and you will have 3-5 pictures to choose from.  Cards will be available.  I’m going to try and simplify the package for this one, so all the packages will be essentially the same.  Cost will be $50 and you will receive an 8×10, 2-5x7s, 4-4x6s, 1 sheet of wallets and 10 cards.  If you do not wish to get cards, you may substitute an 8×10, 2-5x7s, 4-4x6s or a sheet of wallets in place of cards.  Extra prints can be purchased as well at a discounted rate.  I will have the pictures edited by February 6th and you will have until February 7th to decide so I can get them ordered and here in time for Valentine’s Day.  I talked Izzie into posing for me tonight so you can have an idea of what I am planning…

I was going to post these pictures at Christmas time…oops.  Well Happy Valentines Day from the Reichmans!  I am so glad we took these and that Sparky, our dog, went with us.  He was run over by a car on January 8th so we are so grateful we have this family picture.

Here’s my Izzie…love this girl.  She makes me laugh and want to cry pretty much on a daily basis. 

And my sweet Ethan who is the most soft-hearted sensitive kid.  I am so lucky. 

I’m closer to having most everything posted.  I still have some work to do but I’m feeling like I at least can remember my middle name now.  Thank you to all of my faithful clients and all of the new clients I met in 2011.  I look forward to continuing to pursue my passion in 2012!

My little brother and his wife had a baby girl back in November and here she is…I bought the ice cream sundae hat for her and couldn’t wait to get it on her…

This is one of my favorites…

We went to see them in Ord the weekend I took these pictures when she was about a week old.  She was an awesome sleeper for me…just like Emerson was.  Luck was with me on these two newborns. 

I had wanted to do a “Princess and the Pea” shot with her too so I put my husband on the job of making me a bed.  We were so packed into the Expedition I could barely see my kids in the backseat!

Okay…this is my favorite favorite…my little brother is loving his new job of Daddy.

I really like the way Michelle and Evie are “talking” to each other in this one!

She is the sweetest thing…I have more pictures I took of her at Christmas too!

Emerson was such a good baby for pictures…she just slept and slept!

She is so cute and every time I look at these I can’t get over how much she looks like her older brother…

Love the Daddy shots…

I couldn’t narrow it down for ones to show on here…I love them all.

Loving my new ice cream sundae hat…

What a good big brother and sister sweet little Emerson has…

Thanks Matt and Kelly!  Your children are beautiful!

I had an awesome turnout for my holiday mini-sessions!  I wanted to share some of what we did that day!  This first picture is Nikki and her family…she is working for me now trying to keep my organized and on track.  She is doing the bookwork and you might be getting correspondence from her instead of me in the future.  I needed to hand some things off so that I can do a better job for my clients and be a little more timely than I have been this fall. 

Thank you to everyone who took part in mini sessions!  Stay tuned for Valentines Day mini session information…coming soon!

Poor Kallan…she had to wait and wait and wait some more to get her braces off so we could do pictures…but the result is great!  Her teeth are fabulous!

She has the neatest color of hair…

I’m always a sucker for the sports poses…

Kallan is a runner and also loves basketball…and she has a great sense of style in her running shoes!

This is the park right across from her house…I bet she has spent some time on this swing over the years…

We then traveled to her grandparent’s farm.  I love new locations!

This is one of my favorites of the day…

Thanks Kallan!  I’m sorry you had to wait so long but I think we did good!  Good thing we have had a REALLY mild fall and winter!

Lisa is expecting twins and I am so excited to get to take their newborn photos when they arrive!

She looks absolutely awesome for having two babies in there…and this was only a month before her due date…

This one was Kurt’s idea…love it!

Darn it…the picture under the watermark say’s “TWINS”…

Obviously they are expecting a boy and a girl…so cool!

I cannot wait to meet your new little bundles of joy!

Becky is a speech therapist that I work with and I was really excited to take her family’s pictures. 

What pretty girls…

So now I know why I hear Becky talking about monitoring texts and phones at her house.  Shelby is so pretty…and this was perfect breeze timing in her hair!

Becky could give advice on what to wear for picture sessions…I love it when families where complimentary outfits and these colors and textures all work well together.

Thanks Becky!  I’m so glad you needed a drive to Kearney so we could use the awesome park!

I can’t believe Devani is one already!   She is one of my baby plan babies and it is SOOO fun to watch these little ones grow so much over their first year.

What a smile!

Devani has always been so smiley for pictures…she can keep coming back as long as she wants!!

Too sweet.

And her cake eating was too cute!

Thanks Dale and Angala for sharing your little pumpkin with me over the past year!

Elise was one of my more challenging subjects but we didn’t give up!

What a cute family…

She looks like she might be telling them…”Please get me out of here guys…I don’t want my picture taken anymore!”

This is my favorite…

Don’t be fooled…this sleeping lasted about 3 seconds… 

Well sleeping this time lasted a little longer…

I’m so glad I got to meet sweet baby Elise.  Maybe next time we won’t have to work so hard!
