Holiday Mini Session

I’ve been home with one or another sick kid since last Wednesday so I haven’t had alot of time to proof recent sessions.  My fingers are crossed that current sick kid will be on the mend tomorrow and I can get back to mind-altering proofing by Thursday.
In the meantime, I thought I’d get the info...

Phew…Birthday Season is Over.

My children have birthdays 3 weeks apart right at the start of the busy holiday season.  It’s always a hectic time for me.  One that I both look forward to with anticipation and dread.  Tonight we had O’s birthday party at home (remind me not to have a party at home again, please?).  She’s actually...

Oh…to be young again…

Have you seen or heard of “Blink4182″?  I’ve just discovered them.  I guess they’re a couple of high school students who have the self confidence and are just crazy enough to video themselves lipsyncing to different songs in crazy outfits and then post these online for the whole world to see.
Their videos totally make me...

That’s what little “M” was during his session.  This was a little guy who was on the move!   Well here are a few more from his session.  And, yes, you may notice a theme…that containment worked best for this very active one  year old!

Whew!  I’m sliding in while it’s still Wednesday!  I just don’t think that it would have sounded as good if the title was “What to Wear Thursday”.
Here’s a little something I pulled together from a few different sources for a family session.  I made the groupiing with a toddler or preschooler in mind but if...

Outtake…..

Sometimes, it’s fun to share what goes on behind the scenes at a portrait session.  As I was going through the images from this little guy’s session, this image just made me smile.  It is little “M”’s personality through and through…  Dad is getting ready to set him down as we try to get a...

Everything has changed except her big brown eyes!

It’s been a little over year since I first photographed little “A”.   She was an adorable 10 month old who I just adored photographing during the summer of 2007.  Well, we’re in the fall of 2008 now, and she is a beautiful and FAST toddler!  Miss “A” enjoyed me and my camera so much that...
