A while ago a friend from Ainsley's school emailed me about a new Photography Studio that was opening here for amateur or professional photographers to rent. It was started by a friend of hers who, while not a professional photographer, wanted a place to take pictures of her children in the cold winter months. So, she got this great idea, and created this great concept. They offer a natural light studio, along with all of the accessories you would need to feel like a pro!

Recently, a friend of ours was diagnosed with cancer. She has battled with it all with such courage and grace while being pregnant with her second child. One month ago she delivered her healthy and beautiful baby boy. Melissa reached out to me to take pictures of her babies. So, immediately I called "UClick Studio's" to see if I could reserve time in their natural light studio. I booked it for two hours and called my pal Julie to see if I could take photos of her three year old miracle Maddie too for practice! Many of you here prayed for the miracle of Maddie when she was born with a severe heart defect. I thought it would be fun for you to see her now! So, that was my Monday afternoon. Three adorable kids, on a rainy/snowy day indoors, in a great studio, pretending to be a pro! I could totally get used to playing photographer in some cool studio loft one day! I have a long way to go in capturing a one month old.... Clearly an art for those who specialize in infant photography! I was also shooting with a new lens.. So, let's just say I learned a lot for next time!

Here are a few photos from my first studio shoot:

As you can see, Maddie has the most gorgeous eyes to photograph!

She was the sweetest model. Thank you Maddie for humoring Miss Di!

One month old Finley and his big sister Lylian! I love this sweet shot.
