Holiday Portraits at Coventry Farmers' Market

Sunday, Jess & I had a fantastic opportunity to photograph at the Coventry Farmers' Market once again! We were asked to do winter portraits of the Friends of the Markets...as well as their Friends too!

We decided to step it up - we waived our sitting fee and asked people to donate a toy or game to the Rockville Hospital Emergency Room (see explanation blog post here). For people who did not bring a game, we accepted monetary donations and we'll do the shopping! We met our goal of filling the bag AND we hadn't made the shopping trip yet! Thank you EVERYONE for your amazing generosity!!

Our first shoot was such a big celeb, we couldn't bring ourselves to ask for the toy...thanks Bert! We were honored that you smiled for us - and you really do look the same in person as you do on TV! ;)

These two had us laughing! I told them to show Jess how they eat their gingerbread men...
Everyone who joined the market as a Friend was put into a raffle. Violet, of Hurricane Farms, was the lucky name picker!


Violet was just too cute!!



I think this is one of my favs - Jess caught it while wandering around and I played around with the color a bit and viola! :)
Here's Lila, of Farm to Hearth - the.cutest.baby.ever. She cracked us up because she would go from serious to cracking up in a second!!!

Little Jacob - how cute is that hat?
Dot (in the middle) is another photog - nice to see her IN FRONT of the camera!


A rare shot - getting Market Master Winter and her hubby Nick to sit AND take a photo! ;)


(and a little silliness too!!)
Laura, another photog (obvi)! ;)


Our little Lila again! She reminds me of a living Cabbage Patch Doll - only cuter!!!


Violet - it's such a tie over who was the most photographed of the day, her or Lila!!
Violet with mom, Erica! I love the real smiles - no "cheese" here! ;)
Here are my two friends, cracking us up again!
Thank you everyone for coming out and donating! We had a wonderful time and we cannot wait to deliver the toys to the ER!!! Happy Holidays!!

I'll be posting the images soon!
