Everyday Cards by Kristi Young Design....Julie Marie Portraits, Delaware Portrait Photographer

Check out what I got in the mail over the weekend! They are the Everyday Card Set designed by the super talented Kristi of Kristi Young Design. They come in the coolest case, too! What I love about these is that I have them on hand and I don't have to run out to Target to buy a card every time I need one. Now I can just grab one of these fabulous cards to send out! This set would make the perfect gift for friends, mother's day, birthday's, etc... and they come in the great fabric package, so you wouldn't even need to wrap it up!
If you are interested in ordering a set of cards, just give Kristi a call at 419-973-1328 or email nyoung@bex.net to place an order.

Maternity Fun...Julie Marie Portraits, Rehoboth Beach Photographer

Check out this mom-to-be.....she definitely has the glow going on! She is due one week after me, and I couldn't get over how tiny she was. Anyway, I got to meet up with her down in Rehoboth and this photo shoot is a surprise for the soon-to-be daddy! He kept telling her he wanted pictures, and she kept blowing him off, but I think he will be pleasantly surprised when he gets to see these! A -- it was no nice meeting you and your parents, too! Hope you enjoy and best of luck!

Babylicious....Julie Marie Portraits, Baltimore, MD Photographer

One word for this little girl...BABYLICIOUS! She was just the cutest little thing and I loved her little rolls, contagious smile and gorgeous eyes. And...I almost didn't get to meet her. I think we had to reschedule 3 or 4 times b/c of the snow and to make matters worse...she was moving to California and it just so happened that on the day they were moving to Cali, I was able to meet her and get some photos! Her grandmother was over, so we got to do some generation shots, too! Thanks, guys! I'm so glad I got to meet you and hope the move went well!

My new favorite...I couldn't decide which I like better...the b/w or color one, so you get to see both!


Mom, Miss E and her Grandma

Look at those rolls...love them!

Spearmint Baby

If you have not been on Spearmint Baby, you're missing out. They feature nurseries, kiddos bedrooms, DIY items and contests, and I was so excited to see that they picked my nursery to feature on Tuesday. Go on over and check it out...you're sure to get some inspiration for decorating your kiddos' room!

Here are a few of the pix....my favorite item in the nursery is the dog above the bed...if you remember, this is part of the logo that I'm using for my photography business designed by Kristi Young of Kristi Young Design My mom and sister helped me with this....we traced it on 9 12x12 canvases and painted it.

Love His Little Cheeks! Julie Marie Portraits, Washington DC Children's Photographer

Just look at this little guy's cheeks......they are so cute and all you want to do is eat him up! He was just the sweetest little guy ever and so full of smiles! He also has those gorgeous dark, dark eyes....too cute!

Anyway, this is the cousin to the newborn in the previous post. I had so much fun with all of them. You should have seen Little B around his cousin....the two of them are very lucky to be growing up close to each other because you can just tell they'll be best buds! So enough of me talking........

Meet Little B!!!



Love his expression right here!

Baby Love...Julie Marie Portraits, Washington DC Children's Photographer

I had the pleasure of meeting Baby N who was just 3 weeks old! (his session kept getting rescheduled b/c of the lovely snowfall that we've gotten) He was just the sweetest little guy, and it makes me so excited that we'll have a little guy just as precious as Baby N soon! Anyway, the session was done at Baby N's cousin's home (another blog post coming on this cutie, too), and you could just see all of the baby love he was getting from his mommy, daddy, aunt & uncle and his little 6 month old cousin, too! The entire family was so nice, and I had the best time with them! Thanks so much for inviting me into your home! Hope you enjoy the sneak peeks!

Happy Valentine's Day!....Julie Marie Portraits, Delaware Children's Photographer

Happy Valentine's Day to all of you! Hope you've had a wonderful day/weekend! I have been really bad about updating my blog, but I promise you there will be more posts this week, so please stay tuned!

Here is a sneak peek of a gorgeous little girl that I couldn't resist putting in a super cool Valentine's Day card designed by the super talented Kristi of Kristi Young Design.


And...how about these super cute Valentine's Day cards (they're business card size) that I designed for my nephew to hand out at school.

Sneak Peek -Baby Trust... Julie Marie Portraits, Delaware Portrait Photographer

Happy Friday, everybody! We are gearing up for a blizzard. My sister and I were born during a blizzard, but I don't recall ever seeing one, so I guess we're in for a treat in Delaware. I can't believe how much snow we've gotten this year. This is now the 3rd weekend in a row of staying home. I'm hoping to get a lot done around the house, but my guess is we'll just have a lazy weekend and catch up on some movies! :)

Anyway, I just wanted to give you a sneak peek of the nursery. It's not quite done, but it is getting there. I'm hoping to get it done within the next week or so, and I'll be posting some more pix soon.


Above: 1st pic: nursery bedding by Serena & Lily, 2nd: a super cool piece of artwork that my mom, sister and I worked on, 3rd: some painting that is not yet complete, but you get the idea & 4th: a couple of blabla dolls

Above: 1st pic: blabla dolls (my husband told me I can't buy anymore but little does he know they've all come from my sister. I just love them and want to order some more!) 2nd: some more painting that I'm doing not yet finished though & 3rd: Serena & Lily fabric that I'm using--I just love this store...I could buy everything on their site!

And last but not least...a picture of Dexter dog! He was just sitting here while I was writing the blog post, so I figured he could be a part of this, too!

Have a great weekend everybody!
