Savvy Images Rainbow Baby Maternity Photo Session

A Rainbow Baby Announcement

Families, Kids, Maternity

This cute family has an EXCITING and colorful announcement to make… They are expecting a beautiful little Rainbow Baby girl this June!! Pretty early in my pregnancy, I was taking a one on one pilates class from this fit hot momma, and I confided my exciting pregnancy news to her… only to find out a few short weeks later at a mutual friends baby shower, that SHE was expecting a baby girl also! I was so excited to finally have someone here in Anchorage to swap real time pregnancy stories and advice with. We chatted briefly about doing pregnancy announcement photos, and within a week or so (thanks to a great idea she had) we formulated a super unique plan for their pregnancy announcement photos. And that’s when I learned all about what exactly what she meant… A “rainbow baby” is a baby that’s born following a miscarriage or still birth. Once I heard her explanation, I felt like such a ding dong. It made SO much sense. We all know that beautiful rainbows appear after dreadful storms. By incorporating a rainbow umbrella into her session following their past storm, was the PERFECT way to remember her precious angel baby boy, while celebrating and announcing the news of their beautiful baby girl. I just love the vivid pop of color against the Alaskan snow. It was superrrr chilly out, so we made sure their photo session was short and sweet. But regardless of the temperature, you can still tell from their photos that big sister is VERY excited and proud to share their Rainbow Baby news! Just as she should be. I’m so eager to photograph them again once mom’s cute little belly grows a bit more!Rainbow Baby Savvy Images - Pregnancy Announcement Photos

Super Fun Family Photos…

Families, Kids

This fun mom wanted a little variety to be captured in her family photos, but most importantly, she wanted them to be very unique to their family, and mostly about the little one’s in her life. I just love when parents make the sessions about their kiddos, and let them take the lead! This was their first winter in Alaska, so capturing the kiddos playing in the snow was a must. Well, we did we best we could, with the snow we’ve been given this year! ;-) They were adorable, and it’s clear that this little sister loved her little brother SO MUCH, she could squeeze his head off…haha. One of her big hugs, sent them tumbling to the ground, but no biggie there. Continue on! Before we ended up getting too cold, we took it indoors to warm up a bit, and grabbed dad for a few family photos all together in their cozy living room. As you can see, their little ones may be a bit ticklish! Then for the perfect touch of variety and major FUN, we moved it to the playroom! I’m so glad that my lovely (and super fun) assistant was there to play along and sing Little Mermaid songs. How neat will it be for them to look back on these photos, to see the very spot where they spent so much time hanging out and having fun together!? Especially during that VERY photo session! Little brother is going thru a “tasty finger phase”, and even though we strived to capture lots of his cute smiles (with big sisters help), mom also wanted to capture this time in their lives as it truly is. I seriously love that my clients are so genuine! We eventually had their fur siblings join in for a few photos, and managed to snag dad one last time for a grand finale family shot. The pups had no interest in having their photo taken, but we still manage to capture their entire family together!! I’m so excited to share their fun family photos with all of you!Savvy Images - Fun Family Photos

    2014 Winter Recap & New Year Special

    Babies, Families, Kids

    As the new year slowly starts to sink in, there’s one thing we can be sure about here in Anchorage… winter has definitely been a warm one! Literally, one for the record books! According to National Weather Service records, 2014 was the first year EVER recorded where the temperature NEVER dipped below zero here in south central Alaska. You may possibly recall the chaos from rescheduling our Winter Mini Sessions NUMEROUS times!? Well, good news… we FINALLY got them all taken care of, and I couldn’t be more excited to share a few of these fun families photos with you! I’ve said it a gazillion times, but I really am BEYOND grateful for such cool and understanding clients! We only ended up doing one of the sessions in the Savvy Images studio to meet that momma’s photo timeline, and even their photos turned out super cute. Once it did eventually snow a bit more, we were able to get everyone else’s done also. Most of my mini session families were repeat clients, and I’m beyond grateful for that. Being able to see and capture all my little one’s fun personalities over time is such is truly a HUGE blessing. Especially now with their families in this incredibly picturesque spot. Finding this gorgeous location was definitely challenging because of our major LACK of snow, but it was worth the search. It worked out wonderfully and I absolutely LOVE everything about it. It was just the winter Alaskan feel that we were all keeping our fingers and toes crossed for!! Because of the crunched timeline of these sessions, I sped the production up to get everything back to them as quickly as possible for the holidays. Once all was said and done, their photos turned out STUNNING. The best news is that they all have prints, canvases or mini albums to cherish until the end of time! ;-) And of course I had to include a few of the beautiful photos of my lovely assistant. We couldn’t pass up the opportunity to have a little photo fun for ourselves!

    & NOW MORE ABOUT THE NEW YEAR SPECIAL…

    Even though this winter has been a strange one, I really want to finish it out by making the absolute most of it. THAT is why I have decided to offer a pretty exceptional New Year Special to you guys… For the next month, ALL of our family photo collections will be HALF price!! Yes – you read that right, and YES – that is one HECK of a deal if you need current photos of you and your loved ones! Regardless of what Mother Nature has in store for us this winter, there are still SO many gorgeous Alaskan locations that I’m dying to photograph with fun, new families. This offer is only valid if your family session retainer fee is paid by February 8th, it may not be combined with any other existing offer, and you have 30 days to schedule/complete your session. BUT while we’re taking your photos, it’s required that you have as much FUN as possible. ;-) See below to contact Savvy Images about scheduling your beautiful Alaskan Winter photo session!Savvy Images Winter Mini Sessions 1
