thank you l buffalo ny child baby family photographer wny

December 14th, 2009

Well – its the time of the year when I get to thank each and every one of my friends, clients and family for an amazing year. I have been so blessed this year both with SH Portraits and my family’s personal life. We have four amazing children (you’ll see them last in the slideshow) who are doing great in school and keep us laughing, guessing and just wondering every single day. I am sure you can all relate as well! With SH Portraits I was blessed to see familiar faces grow up, be a part of new families lives and even had the opportunity to travel to Washington DC to photograph and meet the President. I have had the chance this year to share my love of photography doing a PPA (Professional Photographers of America) presentation on newborn photography and I have had the honor of winning a few small awards. It has been an AMAZING year and I have each and every one of you to thank for it. That being said – please take a few minutes, grab a cup of coffee (or tea, or hot cocoa) and possibly a tissue or two and watch my year end video. You may even see your family’s face and remember your special moment with me this year. So thank you again for being a part of my life and allowing me to share in yours. ~ Samara
