TheShutterMonkey was and still is our original blog. We thought it would be a great idea to keep both blogs separate, one for weddings, one for portraits (lifestyle), not so 
Now we are keeping everything in one place for your viewing pleasure. Just do a search for Category Archives: AJ’s Lifestyle to see all the portrait goodness.

A Birthday Celebration! Nolan is One!
May 28, 2009 – 10:45 am
Where did the time go? I feel like I just photographed Tiffany’s maternity session, and now this little man is looking at his first birthday! It’s been so much fun to photograph the milestones on Nolan’s first year. He’s got me totally wrapped around his finger!
Happy Birthday Buddy! Dive into that cake!!
Celebrate Baby Bella!

Look at this adorable little baby girl! I was so excited for Bill and Sonja when they shared they were expecting baby #2, and again when she emailed me with the news that Roman would be having a little sister. To make sure we got all the teeny baby parts and wrinkles, we scheduled a session when Bella was 10 days old. I already see the determination in that little face - she even stayed awake for most of it!
Celebrate Ruby and Gus!

The time for Ruby and Gus’s portraits has come around again! They’ve gained a size and lost a tooth or two since our last session, but they’re still the same energetic, personable, endearing kiddos. Here is a peek at our session at Esther Short Park.
I can’t decide which I like better of these two:
Classic…
…or a little personality thrown in!
Ruby and Gus, you two totally made my day!!!
Celebrate Trinity!

I had a great time with Trinity. I first met her when she was pulling double duty as Flower Girl and Daughter of the Groom at a wedding this summer, and loved her spunk. I was absolutely thrilled to photograph her portraits, AND, as bonus for both of us, a Tutu Session. Here is a peek at the results.
And this is one little girl who reveled in the tutus!
Thanks for all the fun, Trinity! (And it IS all about the fun, we know that right? *wink*)
