TIME OUT SHOT!

We are back with Gabby and this time Neal at Neal Urban Studio!

This was definitely a time out moment for the shoot. Gabby just loves Neal and he can't get enough of her! Neal was shooting Gabby in the set. All of a sudden, Gabby strolled on over and jumped into Neal's lap. This is pretty normal when we are all together.

I told Neal not to move and grabbed the camera from him. It's not often that you see Neal or I in a photo. It was only right to capture this!

MISS GABBY & WENDY!

Hello everyone! Hope you had a wonderful weekend! Meet Gabriella Elizabeth and Wendy!

They came to visit us at Neal Urban Studio for the Spring/Easter Minis! This shoot is very special to us as Wendy is Neal's mom! Owner of Let's Do Wine and Buffalo BrewShop! Home brewers and wine makers, go check it out!

I love this image! A little back story about the rockers. The small chair belonged to my father when he was little and was passed onto my brother. Then I took it for the studio hahah! The large rocker belonged to my Nani! I asked if we could have it. We have a whole family affair going on in this photo!

Gabby is the sweetest dog ever. She is so mellow. In between photos, she jumped off the rocker for belly rubs. She loves them! A belly rub = take 5!

As we mentioned before, there are so many things we can do for these Spring/Easter Mini Sessions. You will love the images! Contact us to try and snag one of the last spots!

SPRING SHOOT FUN!

Meet the Allen children! Aren't they the cutest?! They came to Neal Urban Studio over the weekend for the Spring/Easter Mini Sessions.

They were such well behaved kids. They listened so well, that we got to do so many different combinations with the set for them. I absolutely loved their outfits too! They went perfect with the set. Pretty much all color combos and patterns go with this set. The Allen kids are definitely ready for Spring! I also think they are ready to start their modeling careers!

We have just a few slots left for the Spring/Easter Mini's! Contact us today to grab a spot! You will be so happy you did!

THE GUYS!

And now Frank and his guys!

Same location as the ladies at the Albright Knox Art Gallery. But, we decided to use the stairs instead. A bit less bright and airy. The guys were just as much fun to photograph as the ladies. A great wedding party! The guys had me laughing the whole day. It was actually a little tough to get them to give a serious face for a photo. As you can tell from the groomsmen on the left. He still has a giant smile. I love it! And look how fun their glasses are.

Frank got into "model" mode haha. Once again I didn't have to tell him how to pose. I think he practiced before the wedding!

MOM HELPING WITH THE WEDDING DRESS

Today we take you back to May 2016! This image is from Katie and Frank's wedding.

Katie got ready at her parents house. And what a gorgeous house it was. Look at how cute the hallway leading upstairs is! I love the color of the walls. The door leading out to a second floor balcony had so much light coming through. It was a great place to hang the dress. Katie's dress fit perfectly there.

We also thought this would be a good image to call mom in to help with the dress. Doesn't she look gorgeous! I just love this!

SPRING/EASTER MINI SHOOTS

I know I have neglected the Blog this past week, but we were busy in studio creating this amazing set for our Spring/Easter mini shoots! 

We are so excited for this set! We were inspired by the TV Show Fixer Upper with Chip and Joanna Gaines. I just love their farm style remodels and of course SHIPLAP!! I want to do something like this to our house (one day). Neal and I actually hung out in the set while waiting for clients to arrive for meetings the past few days! I almost took my book to the studio to read for a bit on those chairs Sunday!

We wanted to keep everything clean and neat for the set too. Everything is easily removable, so we can create some different looks for families. Neal posted some of our set ups on FaceBook Saturday if you want to check those out! 

If you have never done a photo shoot with Neal Urban Studio before, this is a great one to schedule for! We have a lot fun and you will get beautiful images.

The photos will be bright and airy and just in time for Spring!

SURPRISED BABY FACE!

Happy Monday! And we are back with Nora at Neal Urban Studio!

Nora is just too cute for words! Look at that face! I love her expression. She has a very surprised look on her face. But she still shows it off in an elegant way. I bet you didn't know a 6 month old could do that haha!

Nora did not want to let go of those beads either. She had a firm grip on them when I went to take them away. When I backed away we got this expression. So, I guess it was good Nora kept them.

I also mentioned Friday that Nora had her own wardrobe station. Would you look at this? We had so many outfit changes to choose from. Look at all the headbands!!! And those shoes!  I love it! My kind of gal!

MODEL BABY!

It is Friday and it is gorgeous out! Hope everyone can get outside for a little bit and enjoy this weather! 

On Wednesday we had an amazing family come into Neal Urban Studio for a family session. Besides that, they wanted some "model" style photos for their 6 month old baby girl Nora. They are hoping to get her into some baby modeling.

Well baby Nora has it all. Look at this gorgeous little doll! What a cutie. She was all smiles the entire time. We planned on 2 outfit changes, but she was so good, that we ended up doing 4! Wait until you see the wardrobe station! (I will post next week)

Definitely more to come from this photo session! And I would say Nora is 100% model material!

L.O.V.E

Lyla Odette Vidal Engaurran! Yes, LOVE will be the initials for this baby girl that is expected to arrive at the end of March!

What a great way to show the LOVE in this image. Sondra wanted something really cute for this. She asked to spell out LOVE and have her be part of the letters. Obviously the V is the easiest haha! To keep it Sondra style, we had her keep her heels on! Look at that little belly popping up!

This would be such a cute print on the wall of Lyla's room. This was such a cute idea and so happy that it will mean so much to Sondra and her hubby!

We thought this would be a great image to post for today! Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

STRIKE A POSE...A MATERNITY POSE

Hello everyone! I apologize I didn't get a picture up for Wednesday. So, today we will show 2 images. And yes they are from Sondra's maternity session at Neal Urban Studio!

I had to show her second outfit! We kept the same airy back drop, but Sondra chose a fitted style dress. So perfect to show off that belly! And we love accessories! Look how cute she is in that hat. 

We started with a little Michael Jackson style pose! (I know my title is Madonna, but Sondra was definitely striking a pose). And look at those heels! Sondra was still sporting her stilettos! She had some great balance in those heels too!

Keeping the same outfit and hat, we did a different pose. I love this too! It's so simple, but yet so gorgeous!

Maternity sessions are so beautiful and we have a lot of fun! We are so happy to be able to capture these precious moments.
