Valentine’s Day has been going on at CN Photography for the past 2 weeks and we LOVE it! Check out the recent LOVE Sessions! All the kids will just melt your hearts! And if they aren’t sweet enough, check out Johanna’s Sweet’s table! Its to DIE FOR! Not only does this Mama have a job (out of the house too), her daughter is always impeccably dressed, her parties are always amazing (see the pirates bootie in the polka-dot cones, how cute is that?) and her house is actually clean! Johanna put this together herself! A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! Anyway, we LOVE LOVE LOVE our clients (ALL my Mama’s are pretty amazing ladies!) and their children! I hope you enjoy the Valentine’s Day mini LOVE Sessions! The next mini series will be in March for early Spring portraits..and then CN is taking a wee little break…to have another wee one! (Maternity Pics coming soon!) So, if you’re thinking you need portraits of your sweet baby/child/or Engagements for your Wedding…SCHEDULE TODAY! HUGS & KISSES XOXOXOX

Love is in the air!

Chandler’s Bat Mitzvah

Chantel — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 17:12:55 +0000

Chandler was in “Wonderland” at her Bat Mitzvah Party! I had such a blast photographing her and her friends! Barshop Ollervidez Entertainment provided awesome tunes, blinky-things, necklaces and games! (I’m pretty sure I enjoyed the music as much as the kids!) Check them out at www.rikkosjoint.com More importantly, Chandler had a very meaningful Bat Mitzvah and is blessed to have such a wonderful, supportive family that traveled from all over to support her during her special day. As a Jewish Mother myself, I was very proud of her too! MAZEL TOV Miss Chandler!

Valentine’s Day Mini Sessions

Chantel — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 23:42:08 +0000

Do you want to host a Valentine’s Day Mini Photo Session? Its super easy!

Basically invite your friends over and we take fun Valentine’s Day Themed photos of them! Each session is 15 min and you can choose from two packages. (Oh and PS the Host receives a free session and package 2!) Its a great excuse to throw a party – the kids can make their Valentine cards or crafts and Mom’s walk away with great images of their kids! Let me know if you’re interested in hosting a party and I’ll fill you in on all the details! Attached is a sample card we make for you to give to your guests and some sample ideas!

I want to help make your party fun and I want to get some great images of your kiddos! (and I hope there’s some sort of cake pop or cupcake for me to eat…you know, for the baby:)

Oh and sunglasses are optional (and the only way my daughter will pose for me anymore!)

HUGS!

Sweet Baby Boy

Chantel — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 21:33:04 +0000

I haven’t been posting enough lately, so I thought I would start with one with a cute little baby boy…you know to warm you all up! Little Ryder is so sweet and since its so close to Christmas, we got to have some fun!

And Baby makes Three!

Chantel — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 15:43:12 +0000

Maternity sessions just make you want to have another baby! You have this beautiful Mama-to-be and her doting husband in tow and they are about to experience life’s greatest accomplishment! Its always fun to photograph the belly and then a few weeks later meet the little bugger that was inside there! Michelle and Ryan wanted to do some outdoor shots and I took them to one of my favorite locations…The Japanese Tea Gardens (you gotta get there early, because its not a secret how beautiful it is…we tripped over about 7 other photographers). Its such a magical place that at certain times of year is in full bloom! I have to say, Michelle has the perfect baby bump and we’re excited to meet her bouncing baby boy, Ryder in a few months! (or Baby Ry-Ry as he might be called).

Enjoy the silence you two…this is the calm before the storm of parenthood!

Mollie Loves Will + La Villita Session

Chantel — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 01:42:06 +0000

A little bit country and a little bit rock n roll is how I would describe this couple…not based on their music tastes. She’s artistic and creative, he’s a Man’s Man and sporty…they fit like a puzzle piece…just perfect! I love engagement sessions…you can really get to know a couple before their wedding and its just plain fun to hang out and watch two people in love! (Ok, maybe because I do this for a living and I actually enjoy happy people…but seriously, I leave each session with a spring in my step) We had a whirlwind of a session that started at the Landa Library, went to La Villita and finished at Zinc Wine Bar (one of my favorite haunts). Mollie and Will are getting ready to tie the knot in a fabulous outdoor ceremony here in San Antonio…more details on that next month.

PS. I’m honored to be a part of your day…Cheers to you two love birds!

Family Portrait Season is here!

Chantel — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 01:12:44 +0000

We had so much fun with the A family for their holiday portrait session! (Now is the time to get your portrait sessions before the holidaze are upon you! And yes, daze is correct!) We met them at a park near their home and we only had to bribe the kiddos once! The sweet little girl could seriously be a GAP model in her navy dress and fluffy white cloud of a coat! She got to model my secret smile weapon – googly glasses are a hit most of the time…Anyway, Mrs. A did an awesome job with wardrobe…I might have her consult with my clients for upcoming shoots! I can’t wait to see their holiday cards!

(Such a cute family!)

Nothing better than the love of a sibling! (at this age at least!)

She’s even cute with silly glasses on!

Lilly Pulitzer inspired 1st Birthday Partee

Chantel — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 14:25:00 +0000

CN Photography LOVES to photograph parties and this Lilly Pulitzer inspired 1st Birthday Party takes the Cake Pop! The teal and pink colors were so bright and cheery! But enough about the colors, lets talk about the sweets! The candy buffet made my heart flutter from just the shear volume of candy (this is before I got my pink polka-dot bag to go)! There were cupcakes, cake pops, beautiful bright cookies, and lets not forget the cake with its sweet fondant animals and birthday banner! I could go on and on about the awesome details…but I’ll let the pictures to the talking today! Also, make sure you look up Joanne at Oh Goodie Designs http://www.ohgoodiedesigns.blogspot.com/ because she took the Mom’s Lilly Pulitzer idea and totally made it all happen! Joanne one of the sweetest (no pun intended) coordinator/designers to work with and I know you’ll love her! PS. I’m really looking forward to this little girl’s sweet 16 party, because the 1st one was a complete hit!

Katie & Bryan + Southwest Craft Center

Chantel — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 21:43:42 +0000

Photography, flowers, coordinating…OH MY! We had our hands all over this wedding! I met the Bride, Katie from another great Bride turned friend at a wedding last August and I knew we would make a great team (her favorite color is pink, like mine)! Katie had a great vision for what she wanted and CN helped her make it all come together! From the pretty, pink floral to the getting them all down the aisle and on to their honeymoon, our team was there! We all had a blast! Thank you Katie and Bryan for letting us put together your wedding day! Here’s to LOVE, LAUGHTER and HAPPILY EVER AFTER! (Sorry, that toast never gets old!)
