Sling Shots
Filed in Admin, Finger Prints, November 30, 2007, 5:43 amI had a nursing photo session a while back and only a couple of people showed up for it - others couldn’t due to illness.

Turn Your Photos Into Holiday Cards
Filed in Admin, November 28, 2007, 8:40 pmIf you’ve got a session coming up with me, or you already have photos that you love, consider turning them into holiday cards to send to your loved ones.

Why Breastfeeding Photos?
Filed in Admin, November 1, 2007, 5:40 pmWhen I first decided to start this business, I began to think about what other people would think of my nursing photos.
