I am looking for someone to take some "candid" shots of my boys soon (within the month). Do any of you moms do this? I have looked into a few women but they are booked solid until Spring. Also, does anyone recommend someone? I don't want anything like Picture People, Portrait Innovations, etc.

I just used Natalie Jones and she was incredible. Another mom had recommended her from this website. The one nice thing about her is that you own the CD and can reproduce all the pictures yourself, and she is very resonable. She came to our house & the kids felt very comfortable with her. www.nataliejonesphotography.com

Looks like you have lots to choose from! Desiree does a GREAT job with candid photos. I think she would be able to schedule you in.

Hi K.,
Looks like you already have plenty of responses but wanted to throw mine out there. I'm a photographer and you can check out my work at www.klanephotography.com. Also, Jen Jesseph (she responded already) really does great work and so does Deanna but I think she might still be on maternity leave. Hope this helps!

Hi K. -

Have I got a deal for you! My photographer will come to your home, or meet you at an offsite location of your choosing. She charges a small sitting fee which includes a photo album with proofs of all the poses taken during your session.

She's been to our home 4 times to date (little guy is 8 months old), and she'll be back next week to take his Halloween pictures and our family pics for Christmas cards. We LOVE her! She's great with babies and very patient. You can see the proofs before she leaves! Tell her R. B. referred you. Her contact information is:

Courtney Nabors does awesome work! She will come to wherever you want her to and snap tons of pictures, then give you the disk to do whatever you want to with. I use her several times a year and usually each disk has at least 150 - 250 pictures on it. Then you can have them printed, or e-mail them to family and friends. And she is amazingly affordable - you will not find a cheaper photographer, trust me! And she just knows how to capture the moment. Her website is:

Check her out! Tell her J. Andrews sent you!
