Baseball, Babies and Blogging

Put me in, Coach!  (just as soon as I finish napping).

For those of us who follow Laura J. Phillips Photography, we know that Laura tends to lag behind on her blogging!  This post is brought to you by Sue, her trusty assistant, lens cap holder, battery charger, and all around photographic protege.

This past weekend we had the opportunity to shoot two adorable children.  The first little guy, Cameron, is the three month old son of our teaching colleague, Theresa, and her husband, Jay.

Jay, Theresa and Baby Cameron pose for a family photo.

Peek-a-boo!  Cam was very alert as he popped out of the prop basket.

Such a sweet face!

Our second little guy is 17-month old Caleb, who is the son of former wedding clients, AnnMarie and Craig.  Caleb was definitely "on the move", climbing on things, trying to open the door knob of the studio and playing with props.  I think he's going to be an engineer when he grows up!

Caleb wasn't sure about sharing his seat with Teddy the Bear. 

Look out!  I'm coming through!

Caleb enjoyed climbing up on the bench and getting himself into position for this photo. 

Love Family Portraits

I'm Back! The last few months have been amazingly busy. 

I have so many pictures to share and just not enough time to keep up with social media--definitely one of my New Year's  resolutions!  It's that time of year to get your family portrait done for the holiday season.  This past weekend was great picture-day weather!  Lucky for me I had several clients able to take advantage of the warm temps.  

Here is a little peek at this weekend:



MONICA & ERNIE

Monica and Ernie were married last Saturday on what I call a 3H Day, Hot, Humid and
still Happy!  Monica and Ernie's bridal party selection of 23 was over the top! This was by far the
kindest and  most relaxed group of individuals I have had the pleasure of working with.
Here is a  little peek at what the day looked like.

Having a little FUN!

World's Worst Blogger

Ok..... I know I am the worst blogger in the history of blogging.  I am reminded of this fact frequently by

nasty phone calls and emails from friends, not clients!  My clients always receive their images in a timely manner.  I just don't always post it here!  

So here is a rundown of what I have been up to and where I have been the past few months.

December was a blur.... lots of holiday cards and newborn pics.  

January started off fantastic!  I spent a week in Havana, Cuba on a photo workshop with Peter Turnley. 

February I was off to Las Vegas for a week to attend the WPPI conference with my friend and assistant, Sue.  Awesome time! 

March I was  busy with school, a wedding and working on wedding albums. 

April was another busy month with school and a trip to Nashville. 

May finds me busy with portraits, newborns and re-orders.  Finally,  I can post a few images of the 

adorable Mattie Cataldo. 

Last Thursday I met with Matt and Meg (former wedding clients) at their new home to photograph their 

new baby girl.  She was awesome!  Here are a few images that make me smile!  The end of our 

session had a little different feeling due to diaper issues.  I will keep the details to your imagination!!!

The Talarico Family

A few weeks back I spent the late afternoon photographing the Talarico family. How cute are they?I have known Vinnie and Lisa for a very long time.It was great working with them and their adorable

children Matt, Elyse and Nina .
