More of Mr. M | Tampa Children's Photographer

I had an idea of a cute little title for this post, but the mom of this beautiful babe put a squash on it! LOL! Anyway... you may remember when Mr. M was in the belly, then we he came into this world, and then at just 3 months ago. Look at him now! I could just eat him up!

I | FACES WEEK 3 {WE ARE FAMILY}

Here is my {WE ARE FAMILY} photo entry!

This is what they asked for this week:

"Let's celebrate families this week!

It doesn't matter to us at all if your photo represents a "traditional" family or a "non-traditional" family. We are looking for photos that show off a cool way to capture a family together...be fun, creative, unique and enter the most awesome photo you can! We would also like each photo entry to have at least one (1) adult in it and even possibly a wide variety of ages represented."


This, at the moment, is my fun, unique family photo! Enjoy! And if you want to see more family photos, click here!

Here's what your wallet sized photo or card can look like!

This is one of 3 that I am doing for Brooke for Valentine's Day. I'll just tape a lollipop on the back and she can hand them out to her classmates. So... if this looks like something you would like to do for your little one... book a time during my mini session on Jan. 31!
