Welcome to the Imaginate Photography blog... I love sharing recent work, and sneak peeks for clients. Feel free to look around, and make yourself comfy..

I was so excited to see this expecting mommy & her husband, as I had not seen her for many years. Her mom was my favorite teacher throughout grade school & HS, and I was thrilled to hear that she was going to be a grandma for the first time. Thank you K & P, for a sweet maternity session. Cannot wait to meet your sweet, Mr. J!
Everyone loves a challenge right? This year as the holidays are upon us, I challenge you to make it a wonderful holiday for the children of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The holidays not only remind me of family, love, and kindness, but it also reminds me how thankful I am for our health and well being. There are so many children that spend their holidays confined to a hospital, battling life threatening illnesses, and they need the holidays to be special too. Let’s do what we can together, to make that happen!
WHAT: Here is your challenge.. With the new year comes updating my website, blog, etc. Is there a portrait image that you absolutely LOVE and would love others to see? Please help in this by submitting a favorite photo from your portrait session during 2009 to be featured. Just send me an e-mail (bridget@imaginatephotography.com) w/ the image # and/or description of your portrait choice from your session and it will be entered into the contest.

It was such a pleasure working w/ this couple on capturing their baby bump. I cannot wait to see them through the next several months once their little miracle arrives. I love working w/ couples that are laid back and comfortable in front of the camera.. I even had the honor of meeting baby H’s grandparents, who stopped by for a quick photo.. Thanks for a fun maternity session, H’s! =)
Imaginate is on the go! Are you interested in having custom portraits done? I will be in the St. Louis, MO area doing portrait work on Saturday, October 24th. Limited times will be available, so contact me (bridget@imaginatephotography) to book your session.
Not only will I be in the STL area doing what I love, I also get to meet up w/ a military family that holds a special place in my heart. I “met” Amy and her family 9 years ago.. Yes, NINE years ago online, and we have never met in person! Amy was a member on a mommy forum that I joined in November of 2000 when we were both expecting our first children. The board was an incredible source of knowledge, friendship, strength, and love for me, and Amy spent many a silly, late nights chatting it up while her husband was deployed. I still talk to several of my “mommy board friends”, as I’m always referring to them as. I can’t wait to share the images from Amy & her family’s session… Yay!
So, if you are interested, or know anyone who may be, please send them to my blog and I’ll be glad to hook them up w/ a session time! Remember, all military families receive a 20% discount off their session fee! See you soon, STL!
I was so excited when this lovely gal contacted me about being one of helpers for my maternity project. I was glad to get the chance to photograph her beautiful growing belly! We have known each other for quite some time through mutual friends, and even worked together a couple of years ago.. It was great to get to catch up and had plenty to chat about 
So good to see you, Mel.. you look stunning!
I have a special project that I will be working on very soon, and I’m in need of your help! I’m looking for an expecting mommy who is in her 7th-8th month of pregnancy, with a nice round tummy, and can be comfortable in front of a camera.. If you know of anyone, please give them my contact info! bridget@imaginatephotography.com or 309-275-9452
AND, for helping me w/ this special project I will be offering this person a customized collage from their maternity session… for FREE!
Thanks!
