These 2 little guys are affectionately known as 'the tanks', and they are both fighters, to be sure. They entered the world a wee bit early, and it was a few months before they were both home together with their mom and dad. So this photo session was extra special, as we captured some time with this sweet new family.

The boys snuggled so sweetly together. Although prior to the 'sleeping' pictures, the chunkier twin was chewing on the head of his brother. It was just too priceless to miss, so I'm including it here with a few other sweet images from that day.

Divine Hats

As my Facebook Fans already know, I am teaming up with Little Ems Divine Hats, creator of unique custom hats for girls young and old. In the coming months, you'll be seeing my images on her website, and also a Model Day for girls ages 4-12.

The hats feature fun embellished flowers that are attached with a clip. I love this part!! So you can interchange the flowers between the hats to mix and match looks!! The red hat with pink flower is their Valentine's hat. The other hats below are in their newborn series.

I have been wanting to shoot this little guy for months and months, and was finally able to last weekend. He has the biggest, roundest, bluest eyes possible. Throw in the dimples, cheeks, tousled hair....you could eat him with a spoon. While I love catching smiles and serious faces, I think my favorite is becoming the picture of his little pout. Too cute!

New Year, New Look

I have all sorts of things in store for this year. First and foremost, thanks to Kimtown for the wonderful work on my new logo! I've been applying it to everything for the past couple months so I'd be ready to roll it out in 2010 - hey look at that, I'm on time!

Also in store for 2010 - new business partnerships, more Model calls, Senior Reps, new products....become a Fan on Facebook to find out the scoop first.

Thanks to all my wonderful clients for a fabulous 2009. I look forward to capturing more priceless memories in 2010!

Santa Baby

This little guy has endless cheeks, and was way too interested in the world to want to go to sleep for a silly ol' photographer. But mom and I persisted - closed the drapes, covered him up, turned up the heat, stuck a paci in his mouth.....and then waited........it was worth it, too, because once he was in the zone he was golden.

Perfect fall foliage

This family session could not have been more perfectly timed - the fall foliage was *per-fect* this weekend. And the park gave us some beautiful little areas in which to shoot. We captured lake, rocks, trail, fence, leaves, the works! Besides being beautiful (and handsome), these 2 little boys were so well behaved, they even endured a costume change and still came out smiling.

Take note of their excellent clothing choices - nice solid, bold, colorful choices that work well with the autumn colors and yet 'pop' (especially the reds).

Catching Up

Whew! Is it the New Year already?? I am seriously behind on blog posting (but they all got posted on Facebook, so if you're a Fan, look there first!).

These cuties are from a family session that took place in October, and it was one of those rare, early-freezing days. The little girl kept me running with my camera - but she probably had to run to keep warm!! when I first saw their outfits, I was drooooling at how beautiful they are, and wanted one for my little girl so badly....but they are one-of-a-kind, made by their very talented Mommy. I just loved the red hair on big sis, and the expressions on the little guy cracked me up.
