a most gorgeous family – [St. Louis Family & Child Photographer]
April 21, 2009 – 9:47 am
Seriously. So gorgeous. I often have people ask if I make it a requirement to be gorgeous before I photograph you… LOL And this family is just picture perfect, aren’t they? You may recognize little G who got the cover of Kids Trends Weekly back in March. And can you even believe Mom said to me she doesn’t like to be photographed? Seriously? If I looked half as good I’d be in front of the camera as much as possible! 
But even better than them being stunning, they are such a neat and fun family. The girls are so fun and so polite, and G’s giggles are the BEST! Thanks for a fun afternoon W family. Here are 2 real quick to peek at!

I was asked to work on a new product by Autumn Leaves and it is now out! I was excited about this product because it’s target audience is actually someone just like ME! Someone a little intimidated at the idea of scrapbooking with actual paper (I’ve strictly been a digital scrapbooking girl). Overwhelmed with the choices, the papers, the chipboard, the tools, and on! So these are kits put together, and unlike most kits, you don’t need a single tool! Just bring your photos and you can complete pages in 2 minutes or 6 minutes per page. Easy peasy!
So my job was to design these pages and all the elements used. Super exciting, huh? And even more exciting to see my stuff on a package! And how fun for the clients whose images I got to use on the samples! The themes I worked on are Baby, Wedding, & Tween Boys. So far, I just see the Baby kits out right now.
Here is the 2 minute kit… 6 pages you can complete in 2 minutes each page.
And the 6 minute… 6 pages you can complete in 6 minutes per page
and just as an added bonus, my friend Deena Wuest used a photo of mine of Gracie in her School kit!
Angie W, Kathy M, Lori J, & Becky B, I have ordered copies for you with your beautiful babies featured and will get them to you as soon as they arrive!
more from CDH Awareness Day [St. Louis Child & Family Photographer]
April 2, 2009 – 7:28 pm
I’m out of words. That’s really how I felt that day. Just in awe of these families, these babies, these survivors, these doctors and nurses who care for them and who research causes and cures. So for now, I’ll just leave you with a few more images from that day. And another link to Breath of Hope and their blog.
did you know? [St. Louis Child Photographer]

Did you know… Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia, or CDH, is one of the most common birth defects? Because before yesterday, I didn’t.
Did you know… one in 2,000 babies are affected with this? Because before yesterday, I didn’t.
Did you know… only about half of these babies survive? Because before yesterday, I didn’t.
Did you know… even what CDH is? Because before yesterday, I didn’t.
Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) is a birth defect that occurs when the diaphragm does not fully form, allowing organs to enter the chest cavity preventing lung growth.
And now today, I want everyone to know. I want everyone to help. There has to be more awareness and research so we can help these babies, these families.
Yesterday I had the honor and privilege of meeting some families affected by CDH, both with good outcomes and tragic. They came together at St. Louis Children’s Hospital on Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Awareness Day to present $16,000 they raised to help further research on CDH. The donations were given through Breath of Hope, Inc., a non-profit that helps families affected by CDH and promotes awareness and research.
