I love Christmas cards.  One of the only times we seem to send personal snail mail anymore.  I simply find it delightful to open cards from all my friends and family at Christmastime!  I start thinking about what I want to do with my family Christmas cards in about June… I have my idea cooking for this year, but haven’t done anything about it yet…  but I have been working on some just for you!! ;-)   Here are some of the cards I will be offering this year (you can go to the Life Reflections by Tangie Facebook fan page to see them a little more closely, and while you’re there, become a fan ;-) !).  And there are many to choose from, since I just love Christmas cards so :) .  Cards are sold in packs of 25, envelopes included, for $35 per set.  You can click on sessions & prints for more information about cards.

   

                                  

 

                  

                                                   

                                                

                        

                                           

                            

                     

                  

I know, it hasn’t really cooled off much and it doesn’t feel like Christmas is anywhere around the corner, but in order to help you have fantastic Christmas photos and cards, I am already a-plannin’! ;-)   I will be posting some Christmas cards that you can choose from here very soon (details on cards and pricing can be found by clicking on sessions & prints and going down to the card information), and fall family sessions make for gorgeous Christmas family photos!  If you contact me anytime during the month of September to schedule a shoot,  you will receive a discount on your session fee, 10% off of your Christmas card order, and a free 8X10!

Please e-mail me at tangie@lifereflectionsbytangie.com, send me a message on Facebook (if you don’t “like” the Life Reflections by Tangie page yet, I’m missing you!!  you can click on the Facebook button at the top right corner to do so!), or call to book your session!  Here is an image from a fall session last year that made for a darling Christmas card!

Happy weekend!!!

I got to spend some time with some great friends in the Tower District yesterday afternoon!  It was HOT… but it was fun ;-) !  Somehow whenever we have shoots in the scorching heat, my lovely clients continue to look fabulous through the whole thing, whereas I looked like I just stepped out of a sauna… crazy.  Here is one of my favorites just for a little sneak peek… but I have many more favorites, so don’t forget to come back, ya’ll. ;-)  

I’m also playing with a new watermark… any thoughts?

Sweet baby goodness.  Isn’t he gorgeous?  He was such a good little guy and I had such a great afternoon with him and his wonderful family… more to come soon ;-) .

He is a special education teacher and football coach.  She is a high school english teacher and knitting queen.  He thought she had a boyfriend.  But one Saturday night, they ran into each other on Facebook playing poker.  He realized Saturday night poker playing on the internet must mean no boyfriend after all… and so it began.  Then, true to their fun, spontaneous personalities, the two of them planned a surprise wedding — she showed up at her parents’ home full of family on Christmas Eve in a gorgeous wedding gown, ready for her brother to officially announce them as husband and wife!  Now he makes her laugh, and she makes him get that look in his eyes… Kim and Dana, even after 6 months of marriage, your newlywed glow is far from disappearing.

These two kept me laughing… even in the 106 degree heat…

Vavava-voom!

Kim, you are gorgeous. 

Dana & Kim got engaged at Ficklin Vineyards, so they thought it would be perfect to do their shoot there.  And they were right.

Thank you, Kim & Dana — you two are the best!  I still smile every time I think of our afternoon together… it was so wonderful to meet you!!

This couple seriously was loads of fun.  Continuous laughter, a gorgeous vineyard, and the love these newlyweds had for each other was just shining out of them… and I don’t mean from the perspiration in the 110 degree heat… I have so much more to say, but here is just one for now… and it speaks volumes, does it not?

This is the other quite handsome brother from the post I made the other day about a family shoot I was able to do with my friend.  I’m sure he will be making up amazing lyrics like his older brother in the very near future.  His mom needs to write a book.  Not only because her kids are so cute and say hilarious things, but also because she is an amazing writer.  Check out her blog, Ostriches Look Funny.  You will be hooked.

Just wanted to share some happy Saturday sunshine.  Isn’t she precious?

I keep telling my friend, the mom of this stinkin’ handsome little guy, that her son is just so smart.  That is why he says the things he says and makes up the songs he makes up.  His imagination is incredible… really… you should hear his lyrics.  And I think this photo helps prove my point — can you not see in that expression that he is wise beyond his years??

I have more of his family (he has a brother just as adorable as he is) to share soon, but I had to post this little goody.  I wish I could hear what was going on in his head during this moment… probably something like, “Why in the world is that lady constantly sticking that big black thing as big as her head in my face?  Will someone give me the keys?  I’m outta here.”

This week i heart faces is celebrating teens!!  I happen to adore teenagers… though I will soon have one in my own house… maybe being around one 24/7 will change my mind!!  Haha!! ;-)   My husband and I have worked in youth ministry for many years and they help keep us young… or make us feel old… but either way, their fresh perspective and energy and drive to make the world a better place is quite contagious.  I’m pumped that i heart faces is celebrating young teens over the next few weeks!  Teen photographers will be judges, and I am so excited to go check out their work! 

Here is one of my favorite teen photos… of course she is beautiful, but those ice blue eyes with the bright green snake grass just makes for something gorgeous.

Go get inspired by this week’s teen judge, Jamie Delaine!
