Joanna

Oh Baby! I had the pleasure of spending time with a beautiful, blue-eyed little lady named Joanna a couple of weeks ago, and what a great time we had. She is such a wonderful little girl, so happy all the time. Even with a bunch of people moving all around her, she never got upset, a little thirsty now and then, but never upset. Mom and Dad are doing a great job with this little girl!
Joanna's parent's home gets beautiful window light in the living room and Joanna's room in the afternoon, and I took full advantage of it. We got to capture images all over the house of Mom and Dad with Joanna, Casey the dog with Joanna and even both sets of grandparents came by to hang out with us as well. Joanna's room is absolutely beautiful, filled with lots of big, plush toys, soft colors and all the amenities a little girl could ask for. All the amenities Mom and Dad could ask for too!
Thanks so much Joanna for hanging out with me...you to Joy and Jeremy, I had a really great time with all of you and hope to do it again soon as Joanna grows!
Here are a couple of my favorite shots from the day.

Enjoy!





Love the Colors!

Nest Organics Customer Appreciation Day

Greetings All!

I hope everyone is well and beginning to get a taste of the coming Spring weather.

On March 1st I did a promotional shoot at Nest Organics in downtown Asheville. I set up my studio in the store and families signed up for free portraits weeks in advance. I got to meet 17 families and over 30 children in one day, and I had a blast! The kids ranged in age from a few months to a very precocious 6 years old. The energy level was very high and I got to play with children for 7 hours straight. These images are in no particular order, but a mere sampling of what the families can expect to see when I finish editing all 3000+ images.
I left that day with a huge smile on my face and a lot of love in my heart after getting to spend time with so many beautiful, smart, funny children. Being around children on that level really re-instills my faith in humanity.
My deepest thanks to all the families, children and parents that participated in the event. For those of you that may have missed it, keep an eye on the paper or drop by Nest to see when we are going to do it again.

Enjoy the photos!

See you soon I hope,
Jon
