 Playacar, Mexico Wedding – Richard and Andrea Pt. 1

Apr, 24 2008 by Mel 

Wow! It has been quite a couple of months! I feel like there are not many airlines we’ve not been friendly with lately and it’s so good to be home! I’m going through Andrea and Richard’s wedding right now and there are so many great ones that I’m having the hardest time narrowing them down for a blog post! So that you won’t have to wait any longer, here’s one of my favorites to tide you over until I can get the rest up! :o )

 International Portrait Photography – Croatia Family Session

Apr, 18 2008 by Mel 

So the Croatian seaside is harder to find that you might think – especially if the boys in the car are looking harder for a colosseum than the seaside. ;o) On our day trip to Croatia, we finally found a piece of seaside just as the sun was setting. Julia was our model for the day and she did very well showing us her “serious European model” side. What do you expect? It’s tough being two and dragged around by a bunch of adults! I don’t know why we’re all so obsessed with making people smile for a camera anyway. There’s something very natural about a subtle pleasant look.

Meet Julia -

and Julia’s mom and dad…

Even the best European models crack a smile for the camera sometimes. :o )

Hope you’ve enjoyed them! We”ll be travelling home today from Mexico and I’m so excited about all of the fantastic images we have to share with you guys! Talk soon!

-Mel

mel: Hey Angie and Matt! Thank you! and congrats on the coming little one in your family! :o ) Bradford, don’t encourage him! ;o) Thanks Chris! Hey Mel! Does “used to nanny” mean that you’ve quit?? Yay for you! Thanks so much Yunna! We really appreciate it! Marsha – thank you so much too! David and Kimi- thanks you guys! Mexico promises to be awesome! :o ) Hey Jessica! Thank you! That’s my favorite too! (4.30.08, 11:50 am)

Yunna: I love your photos! Faved this blog! :)  (4.18.08, 6:14 pm)

Mel Watson: Julia reminds me of the little girl I used to nanny for. She would give me that look too when I held the weird black box to my face all the time and begged for her to smile. These turned out really good… she showcased a lot of personality with little effort. Can’t wait to see the underwater bat cave photos!! :D  (4.18.08, 3:11 pm)

chris scott: awesome. the pictures. the comment by sean. all awesome. (4.18.08, 11:53 am)

sean: You and I are *like this*, B-rad. Obviously I didn’t write this post… or it would have been titled “100 reasons why colosseums are awesome — and some family stuff, too” (4.18.08, 11:28 am)

Bradford: … what did you expect? Coliseums are the coolest!! (4.18.08, 11:18 am)

Venice is one of our new favorite cities!  I love the lack of cars and everyone walking to and from the markets and cafes.  Add to that the rustic architecture and it’s just such whimsical blast from the past!  We had a great session with Jake and Kaleena and I’ll get more from that up in the coming weeks.  Right now, I thought I’d share one of the images from their session that Sean had the opportunity to work on while we were away. 

We’ll be home from Mexico very soon!  Hasta Luego! :o)

Neil Cowley: Hey punks, hope you’re having a good trip! only one picture? um weak…. ….but I know traveling can be tough. I’ve been on the other side of the world lately too, maybe we can compare notes. (4.18.08, 8:39 pm)

mel: Hey Secret Admirer. I dodged her eyes a bit but I didn’t do anything to them other than make the photo version look more like they do in real life with the sun reflecting into them. :o ) (4.18.08, 11:44 am)

secret admirer: absolutely beautiful eyes !!!!!!!! I haven’t seen Georgia in person and I am amazed at what computers can do.Just a computer geek at heart. (4.16.08, 10:28 am)

Sharon: Secret Admirer, my baby girl’s eyes are beautiful regardless of computer enhancement. :) But it is very nice having friends who can make you look a little more glamorous. (4.16.08, 8:28 am)

secret admirer: I was seriously asking, are Georgia’s eyes computer enhanced? Technology fascinates! (4.16.08, 5:57 am)

brandie: McLellan Studio ya’ll do an awesome job. I check your blog at least 2 or 3 times a week. I’m a photographer in training, so to speak. I look at your blog for ideas. I would love to see more pictures from baby Georgia’s session, since I myself have a new baby boy. Thanks. (4.15.08, 1:40 pm)

brandie: Brian and Sharon, Georgia is so precious. I love these pictures and the ones from the hospital. I can’t believe how big she’s already gotten. But of course our little Mason, (born 2 days after Georgia) already weighs 12lbs. He is growing so fast. Sharon I would love to talk to you about our little babies. April has my email address. (4.15.08, 1:32 pm)
