Brave | Mishawaka Child & Family Photographer

These little troopers braved the cold with their parents and me today. I think we caught the best light of the day too! One thing I've noticed since beginning to photographer little ones is that boys are way more active and definitely make me work (which is perfectly fine with me)! I think there is one motivation behind everything a little guy does - Go, Go, Go! It was great to meet this family, and hopefully you'll get to see more of them when we wake from our winter slumber!

Christmas Mini | Goshen Family and Child Photographer

Happy (belated) Thanksgiving to everyone! I think I might still be full from all the yumminess - turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkin chiffon pie, Amish peanut butter, and on and on.

This morning I met up with one of my fellow teacher's family. She wanted some portraits of her children for their Christmas card. When I posted info on the Christmas Card minis, she just had to take me up on the offer (and the offer is still on the table). These 3 cuties go to my school, so I wonder if it's kinda strange for Mrs. Shupert to be taking their photos...hopefully not! Enjoy your sneak peek! :)

Taking Flight | Traci Shupert Photography

My husband has his private pilot's license, so Sunday afternoon we just had to take advantage of the unseasonable November weather (before Winter rears it's ugly head). We were hanging out with our niece - you know - the one you see all the time here on the blog. :) She asked if she could go flying, too. How could we refuse her new toothless smile?! Once in the air, we flew around the Goshen area. She particularly enjoyed seeing her school and her playground that looked so miniature from the air. By the way, I think it is super cool that my husband is a pilot. You can tell him I said that, too!

Christmas Card Mini Sessions | Michiana Family Photography

Can you find me in this photo? It's kinda like "Where's Waldo?", except I'm not wearing a red and white striped shirt and I'm not a boy. :)

This client asked if I'd be willing to take a few photos for their Christmas card. I thought it was such a great idea that I'm going to open my calendar to a limited number of mini-sessions for the Christmas season. So, here's the 411 on the mini-sessions:

• Session Fee of $40 (plus tax) for up to 6 people
  
• 30 minutes of my time and talent at a mutually agreed upon location
• 8-10 images, edited and ready to print on a CD

It's definitely not too late for that last minute Christmas card photo!

Puppy | Goshen Family & Child Photographer

I got to meet up again with this little sweetie for her 6 month photos, and this time her parents got in on the action too! I'm a sucker for hats on little kiddos, and isn't this puppy hat just the cutest?! Note to parents: Hats, scarves, and other winter gear make for cute cold weather photos! :)

November? | Nappanee Family Photographer

Saturday was absolutely beautiful! When I got out of the car and greeted the clients, we both remarked at how warm and nice it was. Is it really November? I'm not complaining because I know Winter is waiting in the wings, itching to go. It's definitely Christmas photo season, and I was happy to meet up with this greet family for a few photos. I think we may have enjoyed the last unfall-like Saturday of the year!
