on the farm

What a perfect location for a session with two little boys.  I love all of the backdrops that a farm gives me to shoot against.  All things rustic with texture and depth topped with some gorgeous afternoon light and I’m in heaven!  Have a great weekend!!  xoxo

Julie - November 15, 2010 - 3:06 am

Hi! I happened upon your blog from somewhere else, and I have to say I love your work. The lighting and processing is so dreamy. It’s just beautiful.

maureen

I’m really on my game today.  Maybe it had to do with the fact that I was up at 5am (again!), showered and ready before 6am and I’ve just stayed on the ball for the duration.  Dinner is prepared and it’s only 4:49pm.  Scary.  I even packaged up 8 orders only to get to the post office and realize it was closed for Veteran’s Day.  Agh!  On top of all that, I’m already posting this morning’s session with sweet Maureen.  I have photographed this little beauty 3 years in a row.  It’s fun to see her grow and come out of her sometimes shy shell.  Today she showed her true three-year-old-self.  Ya know the one that knows exactly what she wants and calls all the shots?  Yeah, that one:-) We had fun even if it did take some bribing with a giant whirly pop!  Enjoy!!  xoxo

chace

Meet Chace. Eight days old and already a handsome little devil.  Not only was he a complete dream to work with today but I have to say that I just love working with this family in general.  I have photographed their daughters 3 times so far in the past 2 years or so.  They are open, inviting, down to earth, personable, pleasant…all that and a bag of chips.  Makes my job even that much more enjoyable.  Thanks for letting me photograph your beautiful baby boy!  Congrats!  xoxo

Matt - November 8, 2010 - 10:48 am

I was away on vacation with my husband and boys.  Just getting back into the swing of things.  Sorry for being MIA but I decided I wanted to totally unplug from work and decided not to blog while we were away.  As wonderful as vacation is, there is nothing like coming home.  Happy to be back but will definitely miss that warm Florida weather.  xoxo
