Mommy & me time...

Last week, I was lucky enough to be on holidays with my son. Just me and him...hangin' out and having fun. I was really looking forward to this because I just don't get any alone time with him often. It gave me the opportunity to really reconnect with him on a one to one basis. He is such a good boy and makes his mama proud! :)

...but you need to ask me how many times I had to watch the movie Cars?? ..and I am not talking about the times before my holidays...I mean while I was on holidays....:) ...seriously, I lost tract....but he made me take pictures of him and his Cars "friends" especially his new one Ramone, which is affectionately known in our home as "Remone"....

The famous "Remone"

The famous "Mac" Gotta love the spaghetti mouth. This is what I usually get from my kids these days... My son also has the most beautiful hair....super curly and thick. But he always wants to cut it "fuzzy" like his daddy....and they have been bugging me and bugging me to them cut his hair. I gave in...ugh!! He keeps telling me "Don't worry Mama, it will grow back"...out of the mouths of babes... That's me... Until next time ~R

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

To all my wonderful clients in the passed year: thank you for giving me the opportunity to come into your homes and capture you and your family's precious memories. It warms my heart to have been asked to be a part of your family for a few hours. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas day with lots of food, family, and friends. My husband, children, and I are certainly very lucky to be blessed with wonderful family and friends! We saw a lot of people over the last few days, and some we unfortunately missed due to sick children (mine...lol). I hope you all have a wonderful and prosperous New Year. I look forward to meeting wonderful families in the upcoming Year! Keep posted, as I will be launching the brand spankin' new site and the 2007 image contest. I will be needing you to place your votes....

...Priceless!....

Oh, are we getting into the spirit of Christmas...we seem so much more into it this year..I think it has to do with the snow. The kids are excited, and we are just feeding off their energy! Its a wonderful feeling!

Just a quick note that the 2007 images contest will be available for voting very soon. The website development is in full gear. I can't wait for you all to see! I am very excited!

Although I have taken December off from sessions, I am available if you need to book a session in the coming year (photosbyrej@rogers.com).

I look forward to hearing from you!! ~R

Photos by Rej is getting a facelift!!

You may have noticed that that I mentioned I will be closed the month of December….but I won’t really be “closed”….just have to take some time to make some fabulous new changes to Photos by Rej :)….Coming soon, in January 2008 I will be launching a brand spankin’ new fabulous site! This site will have some wonderful features to make it easier for you – like a calendar so you can see my availability, online proofing directly from my site, some warm and fuzzy words of praise , etc… I will also be launching some wonderful new products as well. Lots of great things coming for 2008! I will be available to answer emails and bookings in between that time, so if you have a special occasion, like a pregnancy or the impending arrival of a precious angel, or simply want to get some special family moments captured, simply send me an email and we can book ahead. Please note there will be a price increase in January 2008. Please email Rej for more details. And last but not least, I will be having a “Photo of the Year” contest to celebrate all the wonderful families I have met since I went live in May 2007 (that includes you too Shona!). I will be posting an image from each one of these wonderful families and you get to vote on your favorite image of the year – the winning family will win… …..you need to stay tuned for more info!! :)
