I found this lovely little dresser about a month ago. When I saw it, I knew I had to have it. I wasn’t going to let another great find slip through my hands again. Last summer I came across an amazing antique dresser that had been repainted a Tiffany blue but because I am such an indecisive procrastinator by the time I decided I HAD to have it–it was gone. Lucky duck, whoever owns that gem! I should have listened to my mom who just kept pushing me to just. go. get. it!!! What I loved most about this dresser was the side compartment. It really sets it apart from any dresser I’ve seen in the past. I thought it was the perfect place to keep the baby’s receiving blankets. So here it is. A little peek inside.

Here are more shots from that photographer meet up that I mentioned in my last post. I used to be scared stiff to shoot mid-day in the snow but this shows that it can be done. :-)
I love how European her clothing/styling looks. Very carefree.
Yes, I have it. I’m green with envy, folks. Maybe it’s a purely a case of “everything’s greener on the other side” but the locations out west and far south are just ta-die-for! My brother lived in Texas for a couple of years, just outside of Austin. Being the burgeoning photographer that he is, he’s taken some pretty cool landscape and nature shots recently and sent ‘em off to big sister to have a look-see. The “bones” of the photos were solid already but I decided I couldn’t keep my photoshoppin’ fingers off them. This shot I have always loved and really wished I lived near to use as a shooting location. It is incredible. So all of you who live deep in the heart of Texas, I am sticking my tongue out at you!! Or maybe you could just invite me down and we could have some fun shooting together. Now there’s a thought! Paired with this image is a shot of my own taken during a local photographer’s meet up in Carlisle, MA. I think they look pretty great together. The model is the daughter or a very talented photog out of Finland. If you would be interested in purchasing this or any other landscape shot from my little bro, just shoot me an email.

Morning arrives. I sneak back up to my bed to capture some quiet moments with my youngest. He is so responsive now that all I need to do is whisper a sing-songy, “baby…” and his eyes and mouth flutter a smile emerges. Heart melting. Happy Tuesday!

Here’s a look at a full session with our little darling Oliviah. A typical session with one child will generate ~ 30 images, sibling sessions double that and newborn sessions anywhere between 20-25 depending on how sleepy they decide they will be for me on that given day!
February 27, 2010 - 2:43 pmmary beth - Thanks for sharing the whole adorable session! I love the idea of just simply shooting a sweetie on the bed! So simple yet so perfect! Beautiful work!
