Sweet Caitlin
I love doing holiday shoots in the homes of my clients. Especially when the little miss of the house is wearing a beautiful red dress and has her very own Christmas tree in her own pink room. What a fun evening! Caitlin was SO sweet. As soon as we were done she said, “Can I take this dress off now?”
So here are some Christmas pictures to get you in the holiday spirit.








New images coming soon - stay tuned!

You know, usually I like to write about the children I take pictures of, but I believe in this case I will simply let these gorgeous images speak for themselves. And believe you me, I am having a great deal of difficulty narrowing these down because every single picture of Meera looks like this. My goodness. Her parents are going to have to lock her up in a tower somewhere when she hits the teen years.
Also, I am so thankful that Meera’s mom finally found the heirloom family bracelet which was lost during the shoot. Piles of autumn leaves and tiny delicate golden bracelets are not a good combination.

Welcome to the beautiful world of little 4-month-old Harley Madison. She was so sweet and loving, and was hardly fussy at all (that last outfit change was almost too much for her!)
Harley’s parents are so lucky to have her, and she is most definitely the princess in their lives. I can’t wait to see her again in a few months, when she’ll be pulling up on the furniture already!

I love Halloween. In fact, I love it so much that I’m actually going to post some pictures of my own kids on the blog even though I normally don’t do that… But who can resist kids in costumes, most especially if you are a children’s photographer? So here are the kids at our Halloween party and my own son and daughter, all dressed up to go trick-or-treating.



And tuckered-out afterwards:

Here are a couple of images from a recent session I did with my own daughter. I actually did a “real” full-length session with her just like I do with everyone else and it was so much fun! I had planned to do the same thing with my son but he decided to cut his own hair. Yes. So I’m waiting until his hair grows back a little to do his session!


Little Patrick
I had so much fun taking fun of Little Pat, less than two weeks new. I could not believe how tiny he was! Just so sweet and small and, well, adorable. Little Pat was definitely happier all swaddled up (his dad is the household swaddling expert and had it down to a science!). Then again, I’m happier all bundled up myself so I can hardly blame the sweet baby for fussing when mean Miss Carrie made his mom take every stitch of clothing off of him. Luckily he adapted quickly and we got some amazing newborn shots.
This session really lent itself to black and white images, so there are a slew of those, although there are some color ones too.
Little Pat has lots of heirloom items from his dad, and I really enjoyed incorporating those into some of the shots. The rattle Little Pat is holding belonged to his dad.
Again I must say that I have the best job in the world. I get to hold newborn babies and be a part of the wonder of childhood, the joy (and stress!) of parenthood, and the exuberant spirit of closeknit family life.
You’ll see Little Pat again in a few months and I’m sure none of us will believe how big he will have grown.

Meet beautiful Eliza and handsome Jude. Not only are they beautiful and handsome, they are really really fast! I think I can say that Jude was probably the fastest kid I have ever photographed, and that is definitely saying something in this line of work! And little Eliza, for being so little, definitely makes her feelings known, mostly by utilizing the tried-and-true toddler “silent protest” technique of suddenly lying on the ground. They were both so funny and sweet, and Eliza kept wanting me to hold her which just made my day. I photographed them on a perfect autumn day at sunset, so the light was just absolutely beautiful.
Jude and Eliza live in a very serene and wooded area and I had so much fun just wandering around the fields taking their pictures. They are certainly lucky little children to be so very loved by their sweet parents. One reason I love this job is that every time I do a family session I am reminded again of all the beauty and love that exists in the world.














Coming up next on the blog: John Patrick, the sweetest, tiniest, little newborn… So stay tuned!
