Senior Portraits {Baton Rouge Senior Portrait Photography}

MK is one of my 2010 Senior Reps.  She was so much fun.  She was up to trying anything and I believe we got some great shots.  Thanks MK for being one my of reps.  It was fun getting to know you.

This place is one of my favorite places to shoot.  When I first started years ago I shot there alot but I haven’t shot there in quite a while.

This is one of my favorite images.  If you would like Senior Portraits that are unique and different I would be glad to shoot your Senior Portraits.  You can reach me at the contact link above or call me at 225-328-1042.  I am still booking sessions for 2010 and taking appointments for 2011 Seniors.  I am also still looking for Senior Reps for 2011.  I will provide more information on how to apply at the end of this post.

This one of my favorite images from the session.

This tree was in full bloom and so beautiful.  I just had to photograph near it.  The next week I went back to see it and almost all the blooms were gone.  I caught it on the perfect day.

Great new spot.  Will definitely have to use it again.

I am currently searching for Senior Reps for 2011.  Your session fee will be free (2 of them) and you have the ability to build print credit for your Senior Portraits.  You can find out how to apply at by visiting my blog post by clicking here.

6 months old {Baton Rouge Children’s Photographer}

Baby E. is one of my year babies.  It was been so much fun watching her grown over the last 6 months.  You can check out her newborn and 3 month post also.  She loves to smile and laugh and is such a treat to shoot.  Thanks D and A for allowing me to document this wonderful time in your life.

She loves her Elmo

If you would like beautiful photographs of your children and family you can contact me by using contact link above or calling me at 225-328-1042.  I am booking for the month of April and May.  I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Love the expression. She is so cute

Bridals {Louisiana Wedding Photographer}

I shot these bridals back in Janurary.   I have never had a bride agree to posting the bridals prior to the wedding, so I’m excited about posting these.  We shot at the Old State Capitol and I was very pleased with how they turned out.  Kassie is so much fun and looks beautiful, as always.  Thanks Kassie for allowing me to be the one to document this time in your life.

Thought I’d start with my favorite image.  The lighting was perfect.  I blew this up into a 20×30 gallery print and it looks beautiful.  The room was a great room to photograph in.

I love the way this image highlights the dress.

Flowers are done by Floral Addition

This is also another one of my favorite images.  Love those stained glass windows.

The lines are so cool in this shot and Kassie looks beautiful.  Make up done by Tina Rodosta

Love the staircase in this one.  Couldn’t help it.  I had to take a few images that showcase it.

I am still booking 2011 and 2012 wedding.  If you would like beautiful images like these for your wedding, please contact me by using the contact link above or call me at 225-328-1042.  I would be glad to meet with you and discuss our packages or to help you design a package to me your needs.  I have packages that include the works and others that include the wedding only.  I also have packages that include just bridals and/or engagements photos.  I look forward to hearing from you.

The checkered floors are great.  So much fun to photograph on.

I know this is a long post but I had so much trouble choosing just a few.

Love the lighting in this one.  Came out just like I planned.  You should have seen me running up and down the stairs to the Chamber Room trying to catch the sun in just the right position.  It was totally worth it for this shot.

This one reminds me of Cinderella.  I think it is because of the stairs and the tiara.

And for some reason this one reminds me of Alice in Wonderland.  Not sure why.

Remember I am still booking 2011 and 2012 weddings.  If you would like me to shoot your wedding, please contact me.   I am looking forward to meeting you.

I Heart Faces – Bundled Up

This week’s photo challenge at I heart faces is Bundled Up.  I took this picture last year for a school project and love it.  It is one of my favorite faces I have taken.  When I saw the topic I didn’t even have to think about it.  I knew this was the photo I wanted to enter.  You can check out some more of the entries at their website.

Baton Rouge Newborn Photographer – Baby W.

I shot this newborn session back in December.  Such a happy little family.  Grandma’s and Grandpa’s were there and we had such a great time.  I had shot M.’s maternity images and was excited to have the priviledge of watching baby W. grow over the next year.  We shoot his 3 month photos this month and I can’t wait to capture all the changes he has gone through.  Thank you M and D for allowing me to document baby W’s life over the next year.  I hope to capture images you will cherish for a lifetime.

One of my favorites of the 3 of them together.  Such a cute little family.  I love to photograph newborns and be part of the excitement and love shared when baby comes home.  Such an happy time for the whole family.

Such a cutie.  He was precious and dressed so cute.  He did so well and stayed awake for the majority of the shoot.  Lots of newborns sleep but as you can see Baby W. was awake and able to show us his big beautiful eyes.

Baby W. and Daddy.  I was so privileged to capture this moment between Baby W. and Daddy.  These will be wonderful images for M and D to look back on in years to come.

I am currently booking for the end of March and into April.  Weekends are filling up quickly but I still have some spots left on weekdays and weekends at the end of April.  If you would like to schedule a time  to have your children documented then now is the time to book your session with me – Mandi Nikole.   To do so use the contact link listed above or call for an appointment 225-328-1042.

A baby has a way of adding joy and happiness to each new day.  You can see the happiness in these parents smiles as they share in this moment with their precious new little boy.  I am so blessed to be able to be part of such a wonderful time in people’s lives.

Mommy’s touch is always so soothing.
