This is the third time I have put this post together and the internet has ate it. But its worth it right? Here are a few photos from the past two days of our time in Vegas. These girls rock my world!
This is the group of ladies staying in our part of the suite, out of 9 photographers.
There are 9 photographers in our suite at the Signature Towers of MGM Grand. Here is our part of the suite which is SO incredible.
I’ll be in Vegas attending a photography conference from Saturday to Thursday. I will try to respond back to inquiries while I am there, but it may take a bit longer. There will be lots of photos to share when I get back!
Don’t forget to vote for your favorite nursery. March 10th is the deadline. The winner will be announced March 15th.
I’m leaving you with one last photo of Mr. Owen. Those lips and cheeks kill me – so plump!
Meet Owen at 10 days old! His parents are friends of ours and fellow seminarians (see photos from the baby shower here – as you can see I was pulling for a girl but I am so thrilled it’s a boy!). They are moving in a few short months while Lucas starts a PhD program in Missouri. I’m sure going to miss them and their sweet, cuddling, well-behaved and well-mannered son. Shannon + Lucas enjoy your little peek!
Owen loves having his hands by his face – so it was easy to “pose” him!
Watch out! Owen’s parents spent several years in Vancouver before moving to Princeton. We had to take a photo in his Canadian hat in honor of them winning the most gold medals at the 2010 Winter Olympics!
This blanket is pretty special because his momma made it for him! He repaid her by peeing on it. Such is life when you get a newborn who just feed naked on a blanket!
Voting will occur between March 1-March 10, 2010 at midnight EST. One vote per person (this is monitored by IP address)
The winner will receive a complimentary mini session focusing on the baby and/or family in the nursery! The session will last approximately 30 minutes and will result in an online gallery of 15-20 images. You will receive a slideshow of 15-20 images and your choice of (3) 5×7 prints. Additional products may be purchased at 15% off. Regular session terms and conditions apply.
Winners will be announced on March 15, 2010. Winning session must take place between March 22 – April 15. Winners must sign a release to allow participating photographers to display images on blog, website, Facebook Business Page and any other print or web materials as deemed appropriate

1. Have you entered the nursery contest yet? The deadline is Sunday at midnight. Get to submitting those photos! Voting opens very soon!!
2. It’s been snowing again here in Jersey, like the rest of the country. The other night I hit the biggest pot hole of my life, ended up bending the rim of my tire. That cost me a pretty penny to fix. I think I’m ready for spring now. This past week it got warm and melted most of the snow from two weeks ago and I was enjoying that. Back to snow boots and snow gear for the time being.
3. Have you been watching the Olympics? We’ve had it on nightly, I’m obsessed! I will be sad when its finally over. I know a lot of people don’t dig their shows not being on, but it’s fun to see incredible athletes compete. I mean, aerial jumping? That is some intense stuff!
4. A fellow photographer Amy posted this great article on choosing your photographer. It points out the difference between a decent photo and a great photo plus the errors. It’s definitely worth venturing over to read.
5. To end it off is one more photo of baby elena!
