Introducing...

...my new blogsite!!! Please come on over to www.lorimercerphotography.com for all the latest information and happenings at Lori Mercer Photography. I've combined my blog and website into one so everything is in one place and easier to find(and hopefully easier to keep updated)! There you will find session information, a link to online galleries, and recent blog posts. I've actually been posting there for a little while to test it all out. There is sure to be something you haven't seen yet!

Come on over and check it out! Leave me a comment to let me know what you think! While you are there be sure to update your blog reader and bookmarks because I will no longer be posting on this blogger site. There is also a link at the top to subscribe to the blog via email if you would like to get an email whenever there is a new post.

While even here I can't post without a picture, I'll leave you with one of our newest cousin, Davis. More from his session coming soon on the new site!

Sarah (12mo)

It has been a while since I've pulled out the white background but when it was time for Miss Sarah to turn one and Mom wanted a cake smash mini session, I knew I couldn't resist. At her 9 month session she seemed a little distracted outdoors but inside Sarah just shined with all the focused attention. I absolutely love the images we captured of this special milestone. Here are a few favorites as a sneak peek for Mom.

Layla (9mo)

It continues to amaze me just how fast this year is flying by. Sweet Layla is already 9 months old and just as precious as ever! She rocked her session yet once again with those big blue eyes and beautiful smile!

I think this next one is an all time favorite. I just love their interaction here between shots.

Katy (10yo)

It is not often that I get an older child to photograph but Mom wanted a quick mini session in her heirloom gown before it was too late. Despite the crazy heat, Katy did such a beautiful job modeling this gorgeous gown made by her grandmother. Here's a sneak peek for Mom while I finish editing the rest.

Ella Kate (6yo) & Mary Ellis (18mo)

On one of the last weekends of the season for Jasmine Hill Gardens, I met these lively girls for a stroll through the gardens. Mary Ellis is on the go now and she definitely kept me on my toes! :) I absolutely love these outfits from Kelly's Kids. They worked so nicely with the location.

We couldn't miss an opportunity for a shot with Dad right before Father's Day!

Shae - Week 12

I am super excited to embark on a brand new silhouette series for the incredibly talented Shae Owens Holley! Shae is a multi-talented photographer in the River Region and a super gal! She and her husband John are expecting their first child in January 2011. Here's Shae at week 12.

Renee - Week 36

I can't believe we are almost to the end of this incredible journey with my cousin Renee. This has been such a fun photo project! Depending on how little Davis decides to come, planned or unplanned, we may be able to squeeze in one final silhouette to finish it out. For now take a look at her latest progress. I find it very interesting how he seems to have moved up instead of dropping. Oh, I so can't wait to meet this little guy!

I also got some exciting news last week as well - I get to start ANOTHER progressive pregnancy project with my awesome photography bud, Shae, who recently found out she and her husband John are expecting their first child in January! WOOHOO!! Shae's first silhouette is coming right up!
