Jorrey Baby Bump | McKinney, Texas

Cheri — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 14:41:54 +0000

I could not be more happy for Angela and Brian. They have definitely had a whirlwind year. It started the end of 2010 when they got engaged and I headed to Texas for their engagement photo shoot. They got married in the spring of 2011, when I again made my way to the Lonestar State to photograph their wedding and just last night they welcomed precious Ethan into their lives and they became a family of three! So, while I was in Texas for Christmas I got to capture Angela’s last month of having Ethan in her belly and the joy of Brian sharing that with her…

Jennifer and Travis are expecting a bouncing baby boy and Quinn should make his debut any day now. Ella is going to make an absolutely great big sister and she was a trooper for our photo shoot even assisting me at the end (she helped me take the shot of her mom and dad kissing and even instructed them as to what to do!) This is one of the sweetest families and Jennifer has the most adorable baby bump ever! And soon a family of three becomes a family of four…

Kissing 2011 Good-Bye…in a good way!

Laura and Joe’s precious Gabriella is being born today (a scheduled delivery) so I think it is the perfect day to feature Laura’s beautiful baby bump! We actually went to a park that is extremely close to my house yet I never knew it was there-it was very busy so we found a few quieter spots and settled in. Laura and Joe are super laid back (and I laughed a lot on this shoot-thanks Joe!) They are going to be amazing parents and I was thrilled to capture Joe giving his little girl a lot of lovin!

Kelly and Dave are expecting their first bundle of joy…a precious little girl they have named Kendall and I could not be more thrilled for them. So we just had to document what has to be the most adorable baby bump I have ever seen. To do this we headed to Winter Park in the early evening and my, oh my it was very hot. We attempted to take some shots with a yummy strawberry gelato but as you’ll see the melting process began immediately (of course it did turn out to be a welcome treat from the heat!) Kendall will make her grand entrance into this beautiful world and welcomed into the arms of two amazing parents this month but for now here is the soon to be family of three…

Top 10 of the year ’10

Cheri — Sat, 01 Jan 2011 00:00:48 +0000

It was harder than I thought…picking a top 10…so I picked 13. It’s my very favorite number anyways. A huge thank you to all of my 2010 clients and friends for making this such a fabulous year. I am looking forward to an amazing 2011!

My top “13″ images of the year ’10 are those in which you can sense the emotion and feeling by only using the sense of sight. I felt that in these…

I met Andrea at her and Ed’s home so we could get some special bare belly shots. When I got there I found out that Andrea and Ed have four, not so small, kitty cats and they wanted to be part of the action too (as you’ll see). Andrea is beautiful, radiant and glowing-she is a mommy-to-be! These shots are very special and for Andrea to treasure and remember her special time with Harper…

Watching a couple turn into a family is amazing. Andrea is going to be a wonderful mommy and Ed is going to be one great dad! We had so much fun wandering around finding different locations to capture this soon to be family. It was so endearing to see Ed take care of Andrea and to be there to be a part of the experience. About a week after this family photo shoot Andrea and I did a bare belly photo shoot that I will share with you next. Their little precious Harper will be here soon but for now I would like to introduce the soon to be St. Onge family.

Time for some Exploration

Cheri — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 04:42:35 +0000

I find inspiration everywhere. I have such a vast array of styles and likes. I feel like this complete dichotomy of a person. One minute I feel I should be living in New York amongst the hustle and bustle of the amazing city and riding the subway everyday…and the next minute I want to be in a log cabin sitting by the fire and riding on a sled to go get more wood! I see my photography going in so many directions and wanting to explore so many techniques and styles that I don’t know where to begin. Again that division inside of me surfaces…at one moment of inspiration I love the bright, beautiful burst of color and vibrancy of an image and the next moment I am in love with the soft, vintage, dreamy style of an image I can’t take my eyes off of and then all of a sudden I find myself attracted to a whimsical, artsy and fun photograph. So I continue my journey as I explore the many sides of me! A little of my exploration…

Hannah: Mother-to-Be | Orlando Family Photographer

Cheri — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 17:00:44 +0000

Oh sweet Hannah! I have known Hannah for several years now and to know that she is going to be a mother this month is over the top exciting. Hannah and her husband Jeff will be welcoming Gabby in just a few weeks but before Gabby got here Hannah wanted to surprise her husband with some special shots of her to remember this extraordinary time in their lives. Hannah is absolutely a beautiful mother-to-be and I am sure once Gabby is here that glow will only get brighter. Hannah and her hubby Jeff are going to be wonderful parents and I for one cannot wait to meet little Miss Gabby!
