Lena Hyde Photography: The Studio Journal » Baby and Children's Portrait Photographer, Palm Beach, Florida

We are booking up for fall! I know….it gets earlier and earlier each year, but if you would like a session for holiday, now is the time to reserve your date. (We anticipate all fall dates will be full by late August.)

Like last year, we are reserving standard and signature sessions for August through October. November and December dates are available for signature sessions only. Please see the website and our calendar for all the info and for cutoff dates for 2008. We look forward to seeing everyone again this year!

Please email us with your preferred dates, location, and all pertinent information. Thanks~

Casey is the second son to a super sweet pro baseball family of ours…when they found out that dad was able to come home again, for just 24 hours, I made sure to be there to meet the newest member of the team. Can you imagine that many big leaguers start out this small?

Though not that little….Miss Allison is Christina’s little sister and mom wanted photos of her at two months old (which is what we did last time and are hanging beautifully on their walls). This is normally a really hard age, but Allison is pretty laid back, as most second children are, which made me quite happy! I also got to play hide-and-seek and enjoy a little Dora the Explorer with Christina while Allison was considering a nap…

I *just* finished an intense and wonderful three day workshop with the amazing Jesh De Rox at the studio. I asked one of my favorite families to let me borrow their three kids for a photo shoot I was going to demo how I work with little ones. Their mom told me that dad just made the cut and was playing in the PGA US Open this week (in Calilfornia)….but, nevermind….they would come to model for me instead!!! Poor dad….but lucky me…now that is real client love, right? We will be cheering that lonely dad this weekend as we watch the tournament on TV.

Today I had the pleasure of meeting handsome Beck, who arrived two weeks sooner than we expected. He was super mellow and also very photogenic…thanks Beck!

I can’t believe Miss Vera is turning one already. I’m loving her big girl room too…really fun and colorful with a Pipi Longstocking playhouse, too!

Miss Gia is one! Another of my buddies I have not seen since the newborn days… and it is so great to see all these toddlers this week. I have tried to squeeze everyone in that needed a session before I leave for summer…thank you all for planning early.

I haven’t seen Mason in a while…since he was a week old, one year ago. He did great today at the studio and we stayed inside since it is about a thousand degrees outside right now. Horray for a/c!!
