Out of Office

Just a quick note to say that I will be out of the office from July 23-29th. While I’m out, I’ll have limited phone & email access, but if you have something urgent you need to get in touch with me about, I’ll do my best to respond. Otherwise, I’ll be replying to emails when I get back.

Big Brothers

“A treasure to a little boy does not consist of money, gems or jewelery. He will find far greater pleasure in the wonder of a rock, pebble, stick or beetle.”
– Author Unknown

This was very true for these two little guys. They made cheeseburgers from leaves, sticks into people and rocks into footballs. They have plenty to teach their new little brother:)

Isn’t she gorgeous?!

I love the emotional and serene mood of this picture.

I can’t WAIT to meet your little boy in September.

Two things on a desert island that I would have to have with me are…phone and someone strong

My favorite thing in my closet is… SHOES!

My favorite store is…Bedazzled and American Eagle.

I most look up to…my brother.

My dream job is…delivery nurse.

If I could live anywhere in the world, I would live in…Tucson.

Just Hangin’ Out

This little man graced the blog about a month ago...in his Mommy’s belly.

Just look at those feet..

Check out Daddy, giving his little man a new hairstyle in the first photo.

Don’t you just love the colors and simplicity of their nursery? Props to Grandma for her artistic skills!

We can’t forget the “first born”. For the first half of our session he was outside the window of the nursery, jumping. Every few minutes we’d see the cutest little head pop up above the window. I tried my hardest to capture a picture, but he was just too quick.

This picture should totally be a big canvas above this bed. Wouldn’t that look cool!?

I can’t wait to photograph your little man again in 3 months!

Girl Power

I love starting a photo shoot in a family’s home. It not only puts them immediately in their comfort zone, but allows me a sneak peek into their daily life. An added bonus with maternity shoots…I get to see where I’ll be taking their newborn baby’s pictures.

When I saw this baby’s nursery on Facebook, I knew we had to get a few pictures there. Isn’t it awesome??!!! Before you start wondering where she found this amazing wall art…check out etsy.com. I could (and have) lost hours/days of my life on that site. Only recently have I turned my window shopping  into something more. I blame the simplicity of paypal!

Notice anything different about these pictures?

It’s not easy getting an 18 month old to stand still…for more than .25 seconds. I have a set of blurry pictures to prove it.  That’s why this is one of my new favorite baby/belly pictures.

I can’t WAIT to meet your little girl in September. I’m dying to take some ‘girly’, pink, bow adorned pictures.
