SWEET Christmas Wishes from Melody Steigerwald Photography




Merry Christmas!!

As most of my Christmas cards have finally landed I would like to share it with everyone! I had a fun time photographing my own 2 kids but it is so much harder than with clients children. Our sweet little session was complete with tears and screams and my son was done after the first click of the camera but with much bribery I did managed to get some images that I really do love!

SO....here are my SWEET kiddos Chloe (7) and Peyton (4)!

Merry Christmas to everyone. . . my amazing clients, family & friends. May this holiday season bring you all much joy, love, sweet memories and hopes & dreams for the year ahead! May we all continue to be blessed and thankful and find SWEET JOY and fun in every day!

Melody Steigerwald Photography | Child Focus Charity Donation | Adorable little Gabrielle





This wonderful family was the winner of my donation to the Mother & Daughter Tea sponsored by Child Focus. Child Focus is a non-profit agency that provides resources and services which enrich the lives of children living in foster care. I was so proud to be a part of this wonderful celebration and happy I was able to give back & donate to such an amazing cause!

What a squishy little doll Gabrielle was! Her skin so smooth and soft. . . I just wanted to eat her up! She was a little short on smiles so Mom, Dad & I were digging deep in the bag of tricks, it was quite the sesison! I get reminded each time I photograph a baby that each is so special, developing their own personality and Gabrielle was no exception, she is so close to crawling and was tring to hard to balance herself, such a strong little one. Thank you Wendy for sharing such a fun time with me and allowing me to capture your sweet little girl.

Dear Melody,
On behalf of Child Focus staff and the board of directors, I would like to thank you for your generous donation and support during the 2009 Hats Off to Mother’s Day Tea. Your contribution makes it possible for us to provide valuable resources for youth living in foster care and opportunities for those youth who have been separated while in care to spend valuable time with their siblings.
Since its inception in 1999, Child Focus has served thousands of youth living in foster care by providing tutoring and mentoring services; sibling reunification events for youth to spend time with their brothers and sisters that they wouldn’t ordinarily have; and birthday presents for their special day. In the upcoming year we have plans to increase our services to provide monthly events for the children. This is only possible because of thoughtful contributions from people like you. As you know, the cost of providing services for our youth living in care does not go away. We hope for your continued support in the future.
Once again thank you for your generosity.
Sincerely,
Denna AtkinsonExecutive Director

Wow! Thank you for the sneak peak, they are so adorable. I just love them and can’t wait to see the rest of the gallery. You are truly an amazing photographer. I love that you have photographed Evan from the time she was a baby and now as a 3 year old. It’s always fun to visit your website and see Evan sitting in that flower pot or in the Santa hat. It seems like ages ago that she was that small! Nobody captures her the way that you do and we always look forward to our photo sessions with you. Thank you again!

About Me!!

I have found my passion! I love my job and everything about it!
I am a stay at home mom of 2 beautiful and amazing children, my sweet daughter Chloe who is 6 years old and little Peyton who is 4. They have been my driving force and constant inspiration for everything I do in my life and they are truly the reason photography has become my passion. I started snapping away when they were just babies and over the years, in college & intense studys have developed my passion.

Thank you to everyone that has supported my adventure in photography, especially my family, friends and most of all beautiful clients!!
