AND…

It was a tough call for the month of April.  So many favs in the bunch, so we chose two. The first pic was selected because I thought it was so perfect how her necklace matched the location.  Loved the texture, loved her belly button (didn’t even notice that until someone pointed it out to me. The second image I love because of the texture (again) and I was so amazed at how cool this looked in black and white.  Plus, the baby is just SO beautiful! Congrats to both families!

This had to be March’s pic. Had to. Would you believe it if I told you that I wasn’t even ready when she did this? Truly…I was running my yap, trying to set something up, looking around for better light.  And all of a sudden I see her strike this pose and I’m totally not ready.  Never checked my exposure, I wasn’t even sure I was in focus. And let me tell you I’m thanking the photography gods that I was able to capture her absolutely adorable pose!  Congrats, C family!

For more details on what this means, see here.

The Pic of the Month is picked by me…just because, sometimes based on one or more of the following criteria:

• “Wow. You wouldn’t believe what we had to do to get this shot.”
• “Wow. Did s/he really just make that face?”
• “Wow. How flippin’ adorable is this kid?”
• “Wow. This was just a fun session all around.”

The winner from each month will be featured on the blog and the front page of the GALLERY site. Each selection will also be entered into “Pinkle’s Pic of the Year” at the end of 2009. The Pic of the Year winner will be determined by YOU, the blogstalkers, and will receive an 11×14 canvas of their pic AND a $200 Pinkle Toes gift card toward their next session. Cool, huh?

Wanna know who our first winner is?
