When mamas come to us with a fun theme in mind, we can't help but get excited. Combining your creative ideas with our creative expertise results in amazing sessions, and that is the Mudpies magic! Check out this baseball themed one year / cakesmash session… and can we talk about how cute this little rookie is?!
The first birthday Cakesmash is often a captured milestone and then suddenly you find yourself with a third grader that you only have some obligatory school pics of. It's such a wonderous time of child hood that your children don't often recall. What do they like to eat, their favorite movie or shows, what's that treasured toy that has to seemingly tag along everywhere?
Lets talk about the TWEENS , this is the most rapid growth and marked changes you will see since their baby stage! And yet often parents get so busy carpooling to sports, working on those Art projects etc.. all the busy stuff that comes with this age! Aside from an occasional family portrait do you have anything captured that really freezes this time in their life?
They are starting to explore makeup and may even be pushing limits of fashion. Often they found a passion for a certain sport, talent or hobby.
In a world that is so fast paced and the internet and social media being so Infuential. It often leads to the innocence of these years to fly by and fizzle.
Insecurities also develope during the informative years, heighten social pressure coupled with body changes can lead so many kids to develop negative doubt and poor self feelings regarding body image social status and everything in between.
We offer TWEEN sessions that will not only capture all the things about them that changes so quickly, but a shoot full of confidence boosting and fun (let's face it we all enjoy being pampered dobted over). Styled shoot with hair and makeup artists on set as well as older girls who are great positive role models acedemically and, socially in the community...what an experience! Lights, camera, action !! They will be sure to remember this experience for years to come. Our hope is to freeze this time forever with tasteful heirloom quality images to cherish AND have the experience be a huge positive impact as they embark on the teen years that can be oh so trying and tough for some.
Wrinkly toes turn to big gummy laughs that turn to wobbly steps with chubby little cheeks that turn to grass stained knees that turn to shorter and shorter lived snuggles that turn to sweaty sports uniforms or gym Socks that turns into car keys hanging from their pockets.
When people say don't blink...it's for real. don't blink sounds cliche but I'm here as a "mom or many" or mominator as my teens tease... I'm a mama of adult children and all ages in between. One minute your smelling a freshly bathed toddler who wants a bedtime story and the next your pacing halls because it's close to curfew.
You will triumph in parenting and you will fail....but one things for sure whether we blink or not : they grow up. Nobody ever regrets freezing moments in time by capturing images.
We will capture it, let Mudpies freeze all this in a unique way with images of everything that is THEM.
Here's some images recently from an adorable little boy whose mama says we captured him perfectly, natural smiles and with all things he adores.
I LOVE cake. But I love tacos MOST.... How fun, A Taco Smash! Seems like after the BIG ONE so many people forget to document the annual birthdays. We arnt gonna sugar coat it TWO year olds are a force to be reckoned with when it comes to fine Art Photography. Well, we are here to tell you....It won't be stressfull- It's our thing. We know how to read them, we can bring a calmness and make it fun if you let us work our magic WE WILL GET THE SHOTS...promise. We prepare with extra staff and props and style the sessions ahead of time to have the best possible outcome.
