Baby, It's cold outside

How cute is little Henry in his winter hats? They were all made for him, with love, by his grandmother. I hope to have Grandma knit some hats for me to keep in the studio. They are such great props. How can you resist! Mom, Henry and Grandma came to the shoot. We had a great time getting to know each other. They are both such interesting women. In addition to being a professor at Columbia University, Henry's mom has a blog about beauty and makeup - check it out: http://productperfect.blogspot.com/ I look forward to another shoot with Henry very soon.

Day of Service

"Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?" This quote made famous by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is as compelling now as it was 40 years ago. It encourages us to reflect on how important it is to participate in our community, both locally and globally.

In the wake of the earthquakes in Haiti, Americans are donating in record numbers. It has been reported that more than $24 million dollars have been donated via text - in increments of $10. I am amazed by this! It is so easy.

Text “Haiti” to 90999 and a $10 charge will be added to your phone bill. www.redcross.org

Text “SAVE” to 20222 and a $10 charge will be added to your phone bill. www.savethechildren.org

The ideas of unity, purpose, and the great things that can happen when we work together toward a common goal – are just some of the many reasons we honor Dr. King through service on this special holiday. http://www.mlkday.gov/about/why/index.asp

Be Inspired!

This is our mantra for 2010!

January is usually a month to recuperate from the insanity of the previous three months. The holiday season is the season when we at Jennifer Lee Photography work around the clock: neglecting our children, our husbands, our boyfriends, our housework, our personal hygiene, our health and our overall happiness. This year we are so excited about the plans we have for 2010, that we have hit the ground running. We can't wait. WE ARE INSPIRED! So...stay tuned.

Best wishes to all for a wonderful new year.
