It was so nice to see this little guys face once again - another little man that was itsy bitsy the last time I saw him! I had a wonderful time with him this morning and the fall color was still amazing! I just love the image with all of the leaves and him in the chair (thanks to my son’s speech therapist for letting me borrow it!). Great great morning and amazing images.

Check out these two sweet little guys! Its hard to imagine that not too long ago one was an itsy bitsy newborn and the other was turning one! They have grown up so much this year and I am so happy to have been a part of it - allbeit a small one. Thanks guys for sharing your boys with me!

I LOVED working with these two gorgeous girls! I love seeing twins and realizing how very very different they are. I just find the dynamic between them so amazing too. I have to say that the image of them together is definately on my top favorites list. Thank you for sharing your girls with me for a little while this week! I’ll be in touch soon with your gallery!

This little guy was so sweet for his session. Smiling, serious, we got it all. So glad to have met him and his parents this buys holiday season!

This is the incredibly beautiful little sister of an incredibly handsome little man - and of course daughter to a pair of great clients! I met this family with her little brother was born and now here we are nearly 2 years later photographing her and welcoming her into this world. I just love photographing newborns (as you all know) and I really enjoy it in the presence of such great company. Thank you E. family for having me to your home again - I look forward to watching your family grow!

I just love these little men - and lucky me I get to see them more than once or twice a year at a session since they live just 2 houses down. So glad that we got to squeeze in their session before the clouds really rolled in and the rain started! I just love the rich fall colors here.

Playing catch up again with this sweet little face! I am calling her “Miss No” - ahhhh that 2 year old age is grand isn’t it? Its ok we have great images with SMILES (I know Mom didn’t think it was a possibility) and I still love her just as much!

I have been photographing this family since *gasp* the little man was a REALLY little man at just a few weeks old. I can not believe how much these two have grown this past year they are like new little people! As always I just love your family and even though this is no longer a preview I have to share with the world!

What more can you ask for on the PERFECT fall day than a session with your beautiful friend & her beautiful family. We had to reschedule 2 times - but as they say. The third time is the charm! Love you R. and your amazing clan!

Well - its true I have been a complete slacker with the blog the past week. This time of year gets me everytime! It is WONDERFUL to see so many new faces and my old little friends but something has to give and sadly it has been the blog. I have cutie patootie faces to share later on today and tomorrow (not really previews anymore but still ahve to share!).

In the meantime - a couple of important notes & updates!

And finally without further wait. . .our CONTEST WINNER! Each entry was given a number (depending on the order in which your entry was received) and then written on a piece of paper. My 8 year old then chose a number at random from 1-17. Kristen was #9 and that is the number Kayla chose!

Kristen R. - here is her story. . .
“So, our story is: last year, we tried to make our own “photo studio” in our living room…we put up a big white sheet against our mantel(because we thought in order to look like a “real” picture, we needed a white background:), and got little Carmelo all dressed in his Christmas outfit. We wanted him to play with some of his blocks, but he also wanted to play with his tricycle. So we hoped he would delicately stand next to the tricycle, and not actually ride it…you may know the ending to this story:) He wanted to ride the trike and he did…all over the mantel, with the sheet in tow!”

And here is the image - I promise you this years cards will be rockin’!!
