And baby will make 4!

Merry Christmas Eve to each and every one of you! As we celebrate the most spectacular birth in the history of the world, I thought it only fitting to leave you this season with images from my latest session.

Amanda and Brian are expecting baby number 2 in the very near future! He or she has an absolutely adorable big sister who has been a D'LyndL baby since her 3rd week on earth and debuted again when she turned one! It is an incredible experience to watch a family grow not only in numbers, but in love as well. Congratulations to all three of you! Here's to seeing you again, very very soon!

The Gillette Family

Now that Christmas orders have all been submitted, it's time to get back to posting! This session only got one quick peak on Facebook, so here are a few, and more will be posted on FB directly after! The boys in this one were my students once upon a time. So cool to see them going further in music! Rock on boys and Merry Christmas!

Evelyn and Michael

Not so long ago I spent some time with two fun little souls that kept me hopping! They were full of giggles and had some exciting methods of modeling for my camera. I can't wait to finish their slideshow, it is sure to fill your heart with joy and spread a big smile across your face! Here's a little glimpse!

Little Miss C!

Here's a little glimpse from a session with the lovely Miss C. I would not be surprised to one day see her in magazines! She was so into posing and looked so completely adorable no matter what she did! Her grandmother had given me a heads up that Miss C is extremely photogenic, and she did not exaggerate one bit!

The Sefton Family

Last weekend I had the pleasure of spending time with this adorable family! We played blocks and even got to go on a little adventure walk outside. Their daughter was not quite so certain of my camera, but by the end of our time together she insisted on holding my hand as we walked back to the house from the river bank! Such a cutie! And her brother... watch out when you look at his face... your heart just might melt!

9 Months and Growing!

It doesn't seem possible, but Miss Madison has turned 9 months old! At her last session she wasn't quite sitting up yet and now she is working on crawling. Life is about to get even more interesting with the onset of mobility! Nothing is safe from those curious little fingers now!

The Roden Family

This session was a long time coming! The challenge was getting everyone in town at the same time when all of them had time and I had an open session. Finally we were all able to get together! Here are a few little glimpses of their session together.

Phone back in service!

Thank you to my wonderful husband for heading to Syracuse to get my phone replaced this weekend! I had 2 appointments and a session this Saturday, so he went and replaced my phone, along with all of our kids! They did get to enjoy the carousel there, and the fun toy store, too! Bonus for all!

So, it's official, my phone is back in working order! Thank you for your patience!

Friends, Forever and a Day...

So, this is my friend Jen. Jen and I have been friends from the beginning... so far back in the beginning that our grandmothers were friends! I honestly don't know a time when I didn't know her. Life happens as it does and we unfortunately don't get to see one another as much as we used to, in fact, no where close... however, the most awesome part is that no matter how long it's been since we've been together, we pick up like we've never been apart.

I got an email from her a few months ago saying that she needed some photos of her with her son and she wanted to come visit for the weekend, hang out, take photos, and catch up. We had a fabulous weekend, did the whole girlie thing, fixing our hair, trading hair products, the list goes on.

To add to our fun and our tradition, we both had our first sons in the year 2000, hers in August, mine in October. So now, such a blessing, our boys are just like us. You would have thought the two of them hang out together all the time. My wish for them is to have a friendship that endures and is forever comfortable, just like ours.

Just a few shots for now, more will come later on Facebook, once I catch up my blog. (More sneak peeks are right around the corner!) Jen turned the camera on me and we had my guy take a few of us together. So many pictures in just 2 days!

Phone Issues!

Hello all,

It seems as though my phone decided to go on a diving expedition and is currently water logged! Please send an email to deb@dlyndlphoto.com to contact me and I will get back to you as soon as possible! Thank you for your patience as I resolve this issue!

The Hoyt Family ~Vestal Child and Family Photographer~

Here is a little glimpse for the Hoyt Family! Our original date got pushed back due to that white, cold stuff that made an appearance in _October_ *brrrrrrr* There was some disappointment having to reschedule, but we were blessed with a beautiful day so it worked out fabulously! It was a fun time, and let me tell you, the little blondie was the biggest camera ham! He was all about posing, big smiles, and... Chuck E. Cheese! Mr. J, I hope you had a blast with the big mouse and I hope you saved some fun for your big brother, too!

The Worthing Girls! ~Vestal Area Photographer~

This past weekend I got to head out to the farm and spend some time with three lovely sisters! Two of the three will look familiar to my followers. I have had the pleasure of taking senior photos for the oldest two, and it won't be long before the third will be a senior! I will have tissues ready for their mom. =) Enjoy this little glimpse!

Brand new baby boy! ~Binghamton Area Newborn Photographer~

At 5 days old, this little guy knows exactly what he wants! We started trying to get some shots of Parker all by himself, however... he had other plans. Parker wanted to be in the arms of his Mommy and Daddy. How is a 5 day old so smart? It never ceases to amaze me how perfectly comforting the touches and comforting sounds of Mommy and Daddy truly are for a newborn baby. Perfectly planned... Congratulations Jenna and Colin!

Something New...

This is Parker at 10 days old! We decided to try again to have Parker model all by himself. It really broke my heart to go again... (feel the sarcasm on that one... I got more baby snuggle time!) Here is one image from today that inspired me to play a bit. Every once in a while an image inspires me to stretch my PS skills, and learn something new. I hope you enjoy this image with the fabulously adorable Parker!

STPP Shoot ~Vestal Area Photographer~

A while back I met up with other photographers in the Southern Tier Professional Photographer's Association. We had a couple of fabulous models to work with an had a great time shooting together! A little glimpse for now and more will be posted on FB soon, including some "behind the scenes" snapshots!

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Lambright! ~Wedding Photographer~

Last weekend I hopped on a plane to Michigan to capture the nuptuals of Georgianne and Randy! We had brunch together on Friday to discuss the final details and I have to tell you the two of them are just incredible to be around! Their joy is so contagious my cheeks actually trembled from all of the smiling! Now weddings are an emotional time for everyone, but everyone displays it differently and with George and Randy, they truly just beamed! They told me about how they met, the proposal, special songs, and those fun little stories tripped by one thing or another that was mentioned in our conversations. All the while they grinned and tears glistened in their eyes. So many amazing emotions, all making it clearly evident they are the perfect pair! And to think.... this day all began with George accepting a chocolate milkshake... ;)

Many more on Facebook, but here's a little taste...

Beth and Rob ~Binghamton Area Photographer~

This weekend I left this particular session with my heart singing! Beth and Rob are two people so in sync with one another and just so into each other that their joy is just contagious! Beth assured me she was low on sleep, but I could not see it one bit. Smiles, love, hugs, and crazy antics! Finishing this session out is going to be so fun! Thanks for a fabulous afternoon on a completely amazing fall day! Enjoy your glimpse...
