Baby Rachel, originally posted June 11, 2008

I had the distinct pleasure of taking pictures today of baby "R", one week old today. I took pictures of her mom and siblings a few weeks ago. An amazing family. I'm honored to have the chance to know them and take their portraits. Here are a few of the shots we took this afternoon. By the way, if you've had trouble getting on my web site (www.lorimotlphotography.com) It's undergoing some maintenance. It will be back soon!

LMP Blog

I'm finally getting my LMP blog set up. For those of you used to this as our family blog, LMP is blended so closely with our family I'm using it for both. Here are a few shots from my most recent photo sessions. The first a sweet little guy we'll call "T". He sure loves his little kitty pictured here! Here is another session. This beautiful mom to be has amazing children who did such a great job during the shoot. I can't wait to take pictures of the precious baby "R" when she arrives!

Well, I couldn't sign into my blog for a while, because I couldn't remember my password! Oh well. I remembered it finally!

Since I last wrote, but baby girl has turned 6!! How did that happen so fast? She had her first big girl birthday party. Princess, of course. Katelyn, our babysitter, decorated her cake. She's going to play softball this year. We found out tonight her team is the Polka Dots! Perfect for Sydney seeing as she LOVES polka dots! One of her friends, Annabelle is on the team, too.

Ryan is playing baseball this year on the Braves. He's on with his buddies from church. He's very excited. He's getting ready for his birthday party next month. I believe it will be Indiana Jones themed. He's catching the fever from his daddy who is anxiously awaiting the new movie. Her are Josh and Ryan during our recent snow... it was very short lived, but fun just the same. No I did not force them outside without their coats. That was their idea! Josh's favorite face these days is his mad face. He thinks it's funny. He's doing great. Loving school...really loving trains. All he wants for his birthday is Thomas stuff and to ride on Thomas. Unbeknownst to him...he will!

I kicked off my brain child, Lori Motl Photography, by taking Easter pictures with a live bunny. I shot about 13 families (or their kids) in one weekend. The pictures turned out really good. I'm very pleased and am hoping to get some additional equipment. I created my logo and my website is getting started. I'm working on different promotional stuff right now to get my name out there. Well, I'm off to bed. It's late. I hope somebody actually looks at these. If you do, let me know. If I'm wasting my time, I'll stop! Happy Spring Break to those in Texas. Ours is next week.

New Adventures! Originally posted Feb 3, 2008

Well, a few days with out a computer gets a girl thinking...and drives her nuts! So, I have decided to jump off yet another bridge into an adventure. I'm really excited about it. I am starting Lori Motl Photography!

I have taken my first pictures under this new name and am SO excited about it. The pictures I'm posting are some my favorites of some friends of ours sweet new baby boy! Isn't he adorable?!
I've bought my domain. I'm working up a business plan and I'm planning to take Easter pictures as my kick-off event! I'm really excited about this new venture. I've thought about it for years, but I'm finally ready to take the plunge!


So if anyone wants pictures, give me a call!

Okay, I normally love computers. And I still like my laptop. Right now, it's the power adapter I hate. It's gone out. Of course my battery went out a long time ago, so now, I can't turn it on at all. So, I can't spend much time blogging. I have a new adapter on the way. I'll post again when I get it. For now, let me just say thank you Carolyn (a Noble Photo) for the beautiful pictures of my kids. I'm going to post one now.

Aren't they cute? I'll post more later. The of course are from Derek and Jill Franklin's wedding.
