And Baby Makes Five…

March 1, 2009 – 8:43 pm

This is the 4th time I photographed this family.? Each time is just as special as the last.? When I say this family has been with me since day 1, I really mean it.? Little Miss L was the subject of my very first “official” photoshoot.?? It is always a complement to be asked back every year, especially when a new baby comes in the home.?? Baby “X” was the perfect little baby, he made not one peep.? I never get a sleeping baby and boy, this little man can sleep.

I have to mention, this was the family that got me hooked on doing cloth diapers for Kieran.? In fact,? mommy now has her own line of bamboo diapers and blankets.? You will learn more about them next month so stay tuned…

This past Tuesday I headed to Philly? to hang with some of my favorite fellow photog friends from all over the country.? We shared secrets, showed off our products and did a lot of chit chat and being silly.? I was truly inspired by those around me.?? This is a true group of talented gals! Thanks again to Kristen Kalp for hosting.

Make It Work…

February 22, 2009 – 11:10 pm

I so felt like I was photographing a model shoot today, what a hot momma. .? I am actually glad it snowed? today, we turned her dining room into a studio and had lots of fun (some pictures a little too personal to show). ? We actually made a make shift dress out of a fabulous scarf that she had in her closet, straight from India.? Isn’t she so cute and tiny, should I mention she is 8 1/2 months pregnant :)

Only Days Away…

February 22, 2009 – 2:40 pm

This sweet momma to be is due any day now.? And I have to say, I was afraid of wearing her out, but she was such a trooper stomping through the snow with me.? In fact, I think she wore me out. ? Most men tend to gain sympathy weight, I think I caught sympathy tiredness.? I went home and took a nap :)

So, is it a boy or girl…say tuned to find out ;)

Latest UPS Dropoff…

February 20, 2009 – 5:03 pm

It is always fun to see the UPS or FedEx man/woman swing by the house with some new goodies.? This package was from my fabulous canvas company.? LOVE THEM!?? This particular print is a 20×24, which for those in love with 8x10s, will think this is HUGE.?? I am a believer that for a great family shot,? BIGGER is BETTER.??? Just to visualize the size, I hung it on my wall for a couple snaps.

Please note: The picture is not crooked, my house is :) ? It is 120 years young. Ok, time to hang the kiddies pictures back up.? Of course, now I am loving the 20×24 and am thinking the 16x20s I have up are too small.
