Sophia: 9 Months

Sunday, February 27th, 2011

This is the fourth time I’ve taken pictures of Sophia.  Started at her six month-aversary, did  couple shoots over Christmas and now she’s nine months old.   Still cute as a button too.

If I learned anything from this latest visit with her, it’s that her brother, Sonny, needs a talk show. ;)

A Cherub Name Addyson

Sunday, January 30th, 2011

Last time I took pictures of Addyson she was being Baptized.   This time around it’s for her 3-6 month old session – sort of a tweener.

She such a happy little baby.  Didn’t even mind me blinding her every other minute with the flash – just blinked and smiled.    And check out those blue eyes!

Since we had the time I also got in a few shots of her big sisters!

These People Made My Year

Monday, December 27th, 2010

Thank you to all my clients on 2010. So many of you have been with me since the beginning of this adventure into making LoC a business. Many of you were new this year. Many of you have already made plans to work with me again 2011.

I thank you. It’s as simple as that. Without you, there wouldn’t be Left of Center Photography.

Bishop Lennon. I shot this at the opening of the St Rita Apartments at the Jennings Center. What a great organization.

Carli and Kevin – Engagement Session in Downtown Cleveland. So many great pictures from this session. We had a great time spending a summer night walking around the city.

Baseball! That’s my boy, Carter. This came about after talking about how boring team photos for city rec leagues can be and how simple it would be to make them better.

This is my kids with their cousins. It’s the annual grandchildren’s shoot that my sister-in-law does every year. The kids don’t seem all that interested!

Not Interested

Olivia is 2!

Tuesday, December 21st, 2010

Well, she will be in a bout a week, but yesterday I stopped by her house to take some pictures!

She was a tough cookie to coax a smile out of, but a feather duster and time seemed to do the trick.    Got some really nice shots from the session and it was nice catching up with her mom, who just happened to be by neighbor when she was growing up.
