Op Love Re United

I met this family only days before Daddy was being deployed. I work with an origination called Operation Love Re-United. I love these sessions and at the same time there is such a sadness. When I was younger, my father traveled a lot for work. I know what it's like being a kid and not seeing one of your parents everyday. It's a tough thing to go through for everyone.
I appreciate every service member. Their time, dedication and family separation. Please keep this family in your prayers and I can't wait to photograph the Reunion when he returns home!
Peace,
jamie

WOW!

It has been a ridiculous long time since I've updated my blog. I promise I will never let it go this long again!
Tons of changes are happening. We have moved our studio from the very cold space without heat to a wonderful location at 28063 Gratiot in Roseville. I am planning a Grand Opening Party, however we have a few last things to finish before the party date can be set.
I am joining forces with Greg Croft from Croft and Campbell Photography. We are creating two separate companies. One will be dedicated to wedding photography and the other to boudoir photography. The new web sites and blogs are not fully operational, when they do become functioning, you will be the first to find out. Jamie Fodale Photography will still be what it is today. I am just taking advantage of the opportunities I have been given. Greg is a great asset to me and I hope I am to him as well.

I only have a billion photos to upload. I will be having a serious catch up with my blog tonight and all of next week. Until then...
Take care,
jamie

Congratulations!

Stephanie and Bryan were engaged just before Christmas. They decided to have a winter snow session. I was very excited. They even indulged me and got down into the very cold snow. As you can see neither of them were wearing jackets. It was VERY cold, but I think now that we are all thawed out, it was great time.

Happy Birthday Paige

Paige I hope you had an amazing time at your magical birthday party. I know Anthony and Vinny did. It was a fantastic time. I just love the crazy face photos.
Love you,
Auntie Jamie

History

We took the boys to the Troy Museum and Historic Village. They had a blast. It was a self guided tour of 10 houses and a small scavenger hunt. There was a press printer and 2 black smiths working. We were able to watch them and ask questions. We sat in a school house and drew on the slates with chalk just like the children did many years ago. You can see Daddy in the back ground of the school house photo.
And of course just like everywhere else we go, we had a light saber fight. It was a good day!

Little Brother is Becoming the Big Brother

It was this handsome little fellows first birthday session. His older brother wouldn't let him have all of the spot light to himself so he joined in the action too. Boy am I glad! Look at these cuties together. I can't wait to see how adorable the newest sibling will be. Only a few more weeks until their arrival.

Gorgeous Girls

Aren't these girls gorgeous? I found this hidden alley and what a gem it is! I can't wait to go back again when it's a bit warmer.
I also can't wait until these girls model for me in a super fun session this spring. Until then I hope you enjoy these images.
