In for the holidays and with their beautiful newborn daughter. The Ramski family came in for portraits with us. We enjoyed working with them, and Baby B is absolutely adorable. She was so easy to work with. Just a very happy baby as you can see!!

Here are just a few of our favorites!! It was hard to choose, that’s for sure!

This little girl is a hoot. She had us in stitches laughing the entire session and I think from this video you will be able to see why. She was sooooo cute, and very photogenic. Of course as a busy 2 yr old she was allll over the studio but that is not always an indication of a bad session. Often times mom and dads leave frazzled from a very spirited session, however no doubt about– this session is a classic with alot of fun outtakes to love!

This family of 3 cutie patooties was alot of fun! Their holiday session was a delight to edit and share with them.

Monday Nights @ 7pm you should definitely check out Farris and Fosters Chocolate Factory in Baldwin Park! It is the place to be! Kids and Big Kids alike have a chocolate making good time!

You can’t beat the price and the service. $25.00 for a full pound of chocolate, fun hats and aprons for everyone provided (although  my kids wore their own hats/aprons) and the staff is wonderful, funny, helpful and talented! The Family Fun Night is approx 90 minutes long up to 120 minutes. Molds, candies, fillings, cookies, fruit galore! You can even make a chocolate covered Twinkies if your heart so desires!

My kid’s can not wait to go back… and neither can we. This was the perfect ending to the summer and celebrate getting ready to go back to school. However.. chocolate isn’t just for the end of the summer celebration.. my kiddos have already asked to go back for their birthday’s instead of going out for their annual family dinner out to their favorite restaurant. So I foresee more chocolate in our future in the coming months as birthdays are just around the corner!

Our personal favorites – Dark Chocolate filled with coconut fillings (think Mounds candy filling) or Chad’s favorite- milk chocolate filled with raspberry and amaretto chocolate!  Your kid’s will come up with much more unique concoctions that will leave your mouth salivating for more!

So… don’t take our word on it.. give them a call at 407-770-1607 and see what all our fuss is about! If you remember, let them know North Star Photography sent you.

We have been photographing these sisters for a few years. Since the youngest was only 3 months old. Also you may recognize the outfit the little cutie is wearing. Same as Brooke- that is because they were in the same dance class together!

They came in for some professional dance photos in their outfits for the last 2 years. And they were a DELIGHT to photograph. I can’t get over how quickly they grow up!!  Aren’t they beautiful? They are great dancers too. Recital was a few weeks ago and they were awesome!! Congrats on another great year of dance!!

Here are just a FEW of my favorties as a sneak peek. It was really hard to narrow down to just 5.

This cutie patootie is turning 1. What a doll baby.  Can’t wait till mom/dad come see the whole session this week. Just had to share a few of our favorites and a sneak peek for them. LOTS of great photos but we don’t want to spoil the surprise. I simply love the emotion in these photos!!! You can feel such love in this family. And I am such a family person.  I love to see the bond between mom & dad and child.  So I hope you can feel what I feel when I look at these.

Check out her beautiful eyes!! How adorable!! AWWWWWW..

Just at about 6 1/2 lbs this sweet baby came in for his newborn photos to be taken. You may recognize this beautiful family from the maternity photos we took not too long ago.  He was soo sweet and hardly cried. He allowed us to turn you and position him. He was a great baby to work with, very laid back little man.

Congratulations to mom and dad on a beautiful new little guy in their life!!

We had a fun family to shoot over the holidays. All the kids were in town and they chose use to be their photographer. We LOVED working with them!!

Here are a few of our favorite photos. We did a session indoor and outdoor.

The weather couldn’t have been better!!!

Also– I must say look how NICELY they are dressed!! I love it when a family spends time coordinating and it pays off. Both inside and outside session look marvelous!!

We love families. We had this beautiful family of 6 in our studio today. We just LOVE photographing families and capturing this in time for eternity.

I also love when they come in all cordinated and you don’t have to try and worry about mismatches. So I LOVE THAT!!!! They look so great!!

Another beautiful family too!! Aren’t those girls adorable?!?!  Sisters!!  They chose one of our new designs this year. And LOVE IT. They wanted to include the lyrics to the song in their card. What a fabulous idea!!
