and so much more.. :)
but I am especially thankful for these two little gems in my life... :)
Thank you Chris for creating such wonderful memories for us to share and for our kids to share for future generations to come...
I am a lucky girl to have you in my life, and I am so blessed to share these two beautiful souls with you.. :)
I hope you all have a wonderful week, and a Happy Thanksgiving!

Matt... I am sooooooooo excited for you and Madeline.. woo hoooo! a heartbreaking and loving journey you two share, and so proud to call you friends..
Friends, if you have not visited Matt's blog, mozy on over there.. you will be moved and inspired while reading his journey from loss to love all the while celebrating life with little girl Madeline.
Matt is getting his first book published and I was honored when he called wanting to use one of the images I had taken on Madeline's first birthday to grace the cover.. aaaah! Completely honored... His book is now available for pre-order here , here and here. It will be released early April...
I hope you will all get a copy, visit his blog and tell every person you care about how you feel.. because you just never know when it could be the last..
I know...
Nice to see you... :) and I'm so sorry you have been neglected these days .... Not for the lack of pictures that I want to share, but just for the lack of time to blog and keep you updated during this busy season while trying to enjoy much needed family time as well :)
but I am working on some fun posts to share with you all and some new fun projects that are in the works.. I'm really excited about some new adventures for Gina Lee Photography.... Squeeeeel..
Stay tuned.. ;)
On a side note... Fall 2010 is all booked out, and I am now currently booking sessions for early 2011 (except for those few newbies that will make an appearance this year) aaaah! :)

The Lee Kiddos had a week full of festivities. First with Halloween parties, school carnivals, the pumpkin patch, school parties and then Halloween night... wow!!! I sure hope I don't see any cavities in the near future ;/ My kids sure do like some sugar. :)
Hope you all had a safe and Happy Halloween.

and special props to this trio of spanish marionette's for best costumes of the night.. :) Pretty amazing, I think.. :)
and I mean Sweet.. Meet Candace Nelson and her beautiful family... You may know her by her amazing cupcakery and founder of SPRINKLES or the Judge on Cupcake wars... :)
see, told you... soooo Sweet!!!! :)
I had the pleasure of photographing her beautiful family,and I think I won the heart of her son by knowing every single Thomas the train engine friends.. ;) I had him at Percy and Gordon... and Yes, even Sir Topham Hatt. :)
Here's a little peek into our afternoon...
When Madeleine asked me to go take her pictures outside in the rain the other day, I did not care what she was wearing, if her face was clean or even if she had on matching shoes, or even if my camera got a little wet... I jumped at the chance.. Because with Madeleine, she really does not like being in front of the camera when asked... Sure, I get the fun iphone pics, and the natural moments which I love, but it is very hard for me to get a good portrait of my own daughter.. SSSSH! our little secret...
So, out in the rain we went with her beautiful smile and the beautiful natural soft box of light we had.
I love you Madeleine.
I love the Green family... fun, loving, silly, adventurous, and they do it all with heart. Love that! :)
Both of them... one if front of the camera, one behind... Enjoy!

Thank you girls for including me in on your party of 2 to a party of 3 tea party!
and the girls wanted a quick lesson in photography with "the big" camera, they had the iphone thing down already, and they sure showed me how many levels they were passed me in ANGRY BIRDS.. Yikes... Girls.. Next time.. it's ON!!! :)
Muah!
