Winter Wedding

This fabulous couple had some special reasons for moving up the date on what was going to be a January wedding abroad. They were married in their home in mid-December instead, and it was completely apparent that where or when they tied the knot didn't matter - they simply belong together. There was a special buzz throughout the house the entire time we were there, and it was such a privilege to be present to witness you both promise each other your forever. Congratulations to both of you, and a heartfelt thank you for having us there!

It's a Dog's Life

It must be tough being a 1 year old golden retriever in a house with 3 children. Haha! Oh wait - I think it's probably tougher on me than on any of them! :)



This is Memphis, our beloved family pet. Most of his evenings are spent doing exactly this after playing with our 3 kids and putting up with their "affections". He's such a fabulous companion! We are all just completely in love!

Another Little Lady (Bug)

I completely love it when an unexpected photo opportunity presents itself. I guess you could say that's really what drives me to want to take photographs at all... being able to take an otherwise ordinary moment and turn it into something cool. It's so much fun to have a tool (the camera, of course) that allows me to see the world from a whole new perspective - I almost feel like a child again!

This little lady (bug) was sitting on the spray bottle that I was going to use to clean our kitchen table this afternoon. Instead of getting rid of it like I usually do with critters, I pulled out the camera! My daugther loves the photo, and she learned that the white spots are not the ladybug's eyes. :)

Happy New Year!

It's hard to believe 2008 is already here. A fresh new year! It's time for resolutions (which we may or may not follow) and new beginnings for so many more things than I could possibly mention. I hope 2008 brings everyone health, happiness and prosperity!

After a hiatus over the holiday season, I bring you a couple who are looking forward to one of the very best beginnings to a new year - a brand new life! This couple was absolutely amazing to work with... Sometimes I'll walk into a home and just know that we are going to click - this was the case with M & K.

I anxiously await the call letting me know that their sweet new baby has arrived and cannot wait to work with all of them again! What a way to start the year!

Sweet, Sweet Baby... Indeed!

This little guy was such a joy to photograph. He was sleeping when I arrived and after a very brief "warm up" (or should I say, undress...) he was ready to go. He was such a patient little soul. I am still very impressed by how easy-going he was. Thank you S & S for allowing me into your home today. It was truly a pleasure to meet all three of you!

A Post, Just For Em!

Emily finally gets her post and it's obvious she's feeling much better! We got a chance to get some photos done for her birthday party invitations... These were my favorites. Everyone will have to wait to find out which one(s) actually make it onto the invites though. ;)

Yet Another Snow Day... And it's Only December 3rd?!

Of course, the best place to be on a snow day is out in the snow, right? Unfortunately, none of us will be heading out there today. The stomach flu has found all three kids, starting with Em on Friday, so we're staying cozy inside our warm house watching movies and catching up on the sleep we've lost over the past few nights. My husband is working from home today, and now has a better appreciation for how difficult that can be with three inquisitive youngsters around. So... seeing as we can't romp in the fluffy white blanket covering our little part of the earth, I'm posting a couple of shots of my resting boys. Emily will soon have her own dedicated post - as soon as I get her photos done for her birthday invitations! ;)
