Grant's Latest

I am so going to have a million photos of this baby.

I did want to let everyone know that I am no longer shooting in the studio. I might start it up again in the future, but for right now, I shoot on location. I can do newborns in your own home, by natural light. I just enjoy the end results a little more...

These photos below were all shot in my home. I can use backgrounds, but why not try your own home or the outdoors as a background?

The "C" Family

I must say, this shoot was quite the challenge. With seven children, three who are pretty little, and the cold morning air, I was lucky to get one good one of everyone together. We are going to try next week for one of just the kids since the little ones were DONE and the sun was casting too many shadows by the time we got around to that part. Next time I plan to bring BRIBES.

They are all adorable though, I must say. We are missing the second youngest, she was not going to have any of it. We are going to get her the second time around :) And pics of the baby are posted below this entry. I am not even going to attempt to remember all of their names. My brain just doesn't function that well. SORRY!












Props to Mum and Dad.



I love all the different colors...

Noelle

Noelle came it for a shoot at almost three months old. I know you can hardly tell because she is as tiny as can be. Really. Grant was almost as big as she is now WHEN HE WAS BORN!

She is such a darling little baby. She reminds me of a little pixie!

I know I have mentioned this before but I don't usually photograph many babies at this age. It is one of the hardest ages in my opinion. They don't sit up, they don't sleep very soundly so it is hard to pose them, they don't like being on their tummies much and generally, they don't seem to like getting their picture taken.

However, because Mum A. and I are friends, and because it was hard to get this shoot in before now, we gave it a shot.

And I think it turned out pretty well...






I can't get over the little ballerina feet!

While I was away...

So I never showed you what I was up to while I was away! Here he is...



His name is Grant. He cried non-stop for the first three months. But he was adorable nonetheless...







Now he looks like this...



They grow so fast!

At least I get to photograph other people's newborns. I have one scheduled and can't wait for the new little miss to come so I can get my hands (and lens) on her! BRING ON THE NEWBORNS!

I'm Baaaack!

I am now scheduling sessions for 2009. I will post my new pricing/details soon but if you are interested in booking an on location shoot for spring/summer, let me know soon as I am only booking a few shoots per month and have already scheduled sessions!

Cara & Nate

Cara and Nate are a beautiful couple. Really. Both are so photogenic and you can tell they have great chemistry. We had a lot of fun. Nate became a police officer not too long ago... it was fun to photograph a man in uniform!

See? Beautiful. You can't even tell they were freezing.





This is one of my most favorite images - ever.







Here eyes are stunning.



And what a great little smile!

The Black Family

Ok. These are some of my most favorite people in the whole world. Beth and I were nannies in CT back in the day and still great friends almost 8 years later. Jesse is one of the funniest people we know (for proof of that see below). Hadley is a little Broadway star in the making with personality to spare and Campbell... well, he is just the cutest little guy my camera has ever snapped. Really. I just want to take a bite sometimes he is THAT cute.

You can tell who the entertainer is. And Camp is such a daddy's boy... I think this pic says it all!



And Jesse, I was totally checking out your tush! (private joke)



My favorite from the shoot.





You wouldn't know it, but this field was totally scary. Millions of snake holes and giant red ant hills! Makes for good pictures though! (I was a little afraid a 'rattler' was going slide up my pant legs though).





Love this.



Love this girl. Hottie.



Speechless Jesse. Speechless.



This is so Hadley.



Camp really warmed up to the "field of death".



Love you guys! Looking forward to that gumbo!



Just for fun. Needless to say, I spend a lot of this session laughing.
