i am so in love with this session….i could not have asked for a better location. The session was held at the family’s vineyard in Mickleton, ( check out Wagonhouse Winery ). And it was gorgeous. Three little boys in jeans and rain boots - seriously? I so loved it!



love, love this one.. I just love how one pant leg is in and one is out…it’s the imperfections that make perfection


And one more….
Thank you guys for such an awesome session!!!
Have a great weekend!

I love to shoot a families with a couple older kids (no offense, newborns or singletons). it is so interesting so see how each kid takes on a different role in the family and how they all interact with each other. I guess it’s because I am one of 6 kids so the family dynamics always fascinate me. For instance, I was the oldest, and I was always the emotional, bi***y one - hard to believe, right?
This shoot was a very pretty family - kind of made me think I was doing a j-crew shoot. As I was going through the pics, I was getting a feel for each kid and their personality - or I should say **my** impression of their personalities (I could be way off here, but I don’t think so).
The oldest…Spencer…just cool. Everything is under control. I don’t think he took one bad pic…or came undone the whole session…kind of “surfer” like.


Ethan…class clown…everything is a joke…he is here to make you smile. And I can’t tell how many times I laughed out loud opening his pics….he cracked me up.


And then the baby, Isabella. Well, she’s the baby sister and she plays the role perfectly as she is just adorable!


And one all together….I am LOVING these colors - so FUN!

Thanks for such a fun shoot!
Have a great weekend!

ok, M, I know you have been refreshing your browser for the last hour. Thanks for being so patient
This is William. Seven months old and full of personality. I think I got every expression imaginable out of this little guy - including a ton of smiles (don’t worry). Such a pleasant little dude the whole time - even when he peed on his mom (told you happens every time).




every newborn session, parents come in and say the same thing “what if the baby pees or poops”? And every newborn session, the baby pees or poops - well, usually pees, poops and throws up. And every single time, mom and dad are sooooo apologetic, thinking their kid is the only one that does this. I SWEAR, it really does happen every time. I am ready for it. It’s bound to happen when baby is naked for a couple hours. It’s ok and your baby really isn’t the only one who does it. I actually think it is pretty funny to watch your reactions as it it happens…this one is priceless.

Maybe I will publish my own coffee table book of these outtakes….
And here are a couple of Michael when he was calm and sleeping…So, you can see, it all works out

and it was so much fun. after just about every outdoor shoot being rained out during the month of June, I finally caught a break. A beautiful day and two beautiful, fun AND well behaved girls. Such a blast - we got to talk about Hannah Montana, princesses, Tinkerbell, Dora, iCarly, the list goes on…Thank god I have two kids that make it their full time job to educate me on this stuff
Here is Keara (Who I think might have a little crush on Nevel Papperman - or maybe Spencer?)

And her little sister, Kaylee….whose favorite princess is Sleeping Beauty and who LOVES to stick her tongue out

Thanks, girls, for hanging in there! I hope you got your ice cream
Have a great 4th of July Weekend!

I just wanted to post real quick to wish all the daddy’s out there a Happy Father’s Day!!! For a lot of you, it’s your first Father’s Day, so I hope you enjoy.
Such is the case for Jace’s dad so I thought it only fitting to post a daddy/son pic. Congratulations to Laura and Michael. They welcomed little Jace into the world on May 29th. I have to say, I love the name - so different!



Ok, I’m off to see my own dad. Happy Father’s Day!

so many babies lately - what is going on? honestly, I have never been this busy with so many newborns. Sometimes, i can’t even tell them apart anymore (I probably shouldn’t be telling you that). The other day I got an order back from the lab and it was a mixture of a couple babies. I just sat on the floor trying to figure out who went with who. To top it off, my brother and sister-in-law just had twins on Friday - thank god one is a boy and one is a girl or I would be in some serious trouble telling them apart.
On to Bella and Angelina… Bella was last here when she was about 10 days old- she was my very last shoot before I went on maternity leave to have Logan so she has a special place in my heart ;) And when you look at this face…she is so adorable. Who can resist it?

And now Bella is a big sis…here is little Angelina….



ok, back to work….
have a good one!
