Just this evening as we were sitting outside waiting for Lenny to get home from work, the light at sunset was just divine. I actually just missed the sun’s golden glow as it disappeared behind the house next door, but the couple of minutes that my son “allowed” me to photograph him was priceless. I’ve learned that these little impromptu sessions have to be all about him, which really is what I should be doing anyway. He let me photograph him with his two loves…Ironman and his Optimus Prime socks.
I’m entitling this late in the evening Valentines post; “Ode to My First Born.”
Last week, the studio hosted our third Matilda Jane Clothing trunk show. Their new line for spring is fun and flirty. I’m loving all the new spring colors.
In honor of how much we love Matilda Jane here at the studio, today’s sneak peak is all Matilda Jane. This little cutie’s mom came to our second Matilda Jane trunk show, and here is little “L” proudly showing off her new duds.
I was so excited when “mom to be” called to tell me she is pregnant with twin boys. I first met the future parents during their wedding portraits. Check them out here.
Mom and I actually booked this session two months before her due date. Lucky for us, Liv arrived on time, and the newborn session went exactly as planned.
I am so happy to announce today that courtney ortiz photography has a brand spanking new website! BRAND NEW! It’s been a long time coming, and the last few days at the studio have been a bit hectic as we ironed out all the last of the wrinkles.
So with it being such a special day here, I’m happy to showcase one of my favorite families.
I met this family in downtown Ft. Lauderdale. Not only did I capture these gorgeous twin brothers, but their cousins even jumped in for a few shots as well.
One of my favorite sessions to date. All three kids are equally photogenic and comfortable in front of the camera. You’ll also see this family in the February issue of the Hollywood Gazette as the courtney ortiz photography “Family of the Month.”
In studio news, we’re really keeping our fingers crossed that the new website will be unveiled tomorrow. At the end of the week at the latest, but tomorrow would be pretty rockin.
Ann Remotigue is a fellow photographer here in South Florida. When she called me to book the session she said that all she wanted for her birthday were pictures of her family.
I love Lifestyle Sessions. The time I’m able to spend with a family, a couple of hours, really gives me the opportunity to tell a story. Truly capture the interactions and emotions of all family members in a relaxed casual environment.
For more information on scheduling a Lifestyle Session call or email the studio.
