The kids were so so much fun and I think I was able to capture all the unique expressions and smiles of each child. Remembering back to the days of my school photos we had the cookie cutter boring backdrops and the same cheesy smile year after year. I hope that the parents will really enjoy their photos and remember these precious years. I'm sorry that there are so many to share but I couldn't narrow down the ones I wanted to show and there were just too many cuties! I wish I could post them all! If you're in the area and are interested in school photos at your child's school or MDO I would LOVE to talk to the director/principal!<br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Jaden1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Jaden1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Jax2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Jax2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Izzy2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Izzy2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Maria1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Maria1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Parker1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Parker1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Chloe1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Chloe1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Caleb3.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Caleb3.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Gretel1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Gretel1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Tajwar1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Tajwar1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Alexander1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Alexander1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=BabyGirl3.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/BabyGirl3.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05422429955742737560noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522183425067951899.post-81000072904564752742009-11-02T21:21:00.000-08:002009-11-02T21:22:39.712-08:00Construction ZoneWorking on a few changes that will make my blog more beautiful...stay tuned!Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05422429955742737560noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522183425067951899.post-86713658361510844632009-10-07T20:22:00.000-07:002009-10-07T20:28:43.278-07:00My Little Girly GirlOne of my favorite boutique designers is Rene' of Girly Girl Originals. She has such an eye for beautiful fabrics, fun and kid friendly designs, and is just the sweetest person you will ever meet. To top if off she has some of the most gorgeous looking children. Trust me, the girl has got talent and good genes.<br /><br />Here's Emily with her first Girly Girl set. Spectacular baby threads, aren't they? <br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=DRG5-2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/DRG5-2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=DRG3-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/DRG3-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=DRG9.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/DRG9.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05422429955742737560noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522183425067951899.post-39156383978183164262009-09-30T22:28:00.000-07:002009-09-30T22:32:49.310-07:00ChubsBaby Em got to model for some fabulous designers on eBay recently.

Nothing is better than walking into a room and seeing a wall full of sunlight pouring in. You know it's going to be a great place to grab some shots. What's even better is walking in and finding a king size bed with crisp white linens. It's like a dream come true to photograph babies on. <br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=white-dress.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/white-dress.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=striped-hoodie-web.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/striped-hoodie-web.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05422429955742737560noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522183425067951899.post-36722511899628893422009-08-26T12:50:00.000-07:002009-08-26T12:52:07.828-07:00Cleaning upI am cleaning up my files and came across this little cutie today.

I have it blown up and waiting to be framed. However, Jodi of MCP Actions is running a contest with the folks at Color Inc. They are picking the perfect pictures to be blown up and printed on a gallery wrapped canvas. I would absolutely LOVE this to be done on canvas!

She looks so much like Izzy when Izzy was a newborn. The major difference is that she has so much more hair and it's dark and thick right now. I think she has more hair than Izzy does today! Had to share my first photos of her. Many, many more to come!!! I think we'll keep her!<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=emilybunny.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/emilybunny.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05422429955742737560noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522183425067951899.post-72910928559094706472009-03-30T09:27:00.000-07:002009-03-30T11:35:52.424-07:00A few moreSo I fibbed a little when I said we were on maternity leave. I couldn't "leave" completely from my love of photography and Izzy has been doing so well with her modeling lately. My sweet friend Jena sent Izzy these flowers to model and we had some beautiful weather here in Houston this weekend. Though we are cutting down on the picture taking for now please come check back often because I'll be posting some old favorites that I have never gotten a chance to post in the past.<br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=argyle-flower7.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/argyle-flower7.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=flower8.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/flower8.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=white-flower6.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/white-flower6.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05422429955742737560noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522183425067951899.post-6382573865547996672009-03-27T07:07:00.000-07:002009-03-27T07:10:50.430-07:00Shabby ChicI LOVED working with Traci and April from travelinlight and forevermyangel to come up with this collaborative design.

Let me tell you this girl was BORN to be a big sister. Especially to another little girl. She is constantly talking into my belly button and telling Emily to come out and say, "SURPRISE"! She has promised to change diapers and take care of her. Here are two from a mini session we did today while modeling some cute bows from LaBellaBowtique.<br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view&current=Girl-Detective-framed2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Girl-Detective-framed2.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Girl-Detective-frames.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Girl-Detective-frames.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05422429955742737560noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522183425067951899.post-80325046761957673402009-02-12T08:28:00.000-08:002009-02-12T08:34:55.492-08:00XOXO everyone!Hoping that everyone has a Happy Valentine's Day with all those that they love!

But I've been cutting back on the sessions and the modeling jobs because I am now 6 months pregnant! However, we are doing an occasional launch on eBay and for our special designer friends upon request. Here is a super cute and super fun knot set from Leigh Ann of Posh Piggy Couture. We picked out the fabrics together and Jena of sweet*bows*4*sweetpeas* boutique did a set of matching bows for Izzy. Don't you love the colors?!?!<br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Knot-Set5.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Knot-Set5.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Knot-Set7.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Knot-Set7.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Knot-Set1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Knot-Set1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=Knot-Set20.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/Knot-Set20.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05422429955742737560noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522183425067951899.post-41900421465398530582008-11-23T13:27:00.000-08:002008-11-23T13:36:06.522-08:00XOXOValentine's sets have begun arriving at our door and they are absolutely adorable! Here are two recent sessions Izzy did for some upcoming eBay launches. The first is from Aimee of sewgirlygirl. It is the sweetest three piece set made of different toiles, polka dots, and reds. The second deco set is from wifeandmotherofpilots. CUTE hearts made from gorgeous fabrics and soft minky. Love them both and I think Izzy is starting to get the knack for this modeling stuff!<br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=62c37fd2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/62c37fd2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=c7776e31.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/c7776e31.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=7f925b96.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/7f925b96.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=64dcc773.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/64dcc773.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=349aeade.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/349aeade.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/?action=view¤t=c12ae1fc.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/golden_chopsticks/c12ae1fc.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05422429955742737560noreply@blogger.com1
