Little Boy Blue

I met sweet B and his parents a few weeks ago at their house. Would you look at those big brown eyes?!

We put him in lots of situations that were new to him. When’s the last time you sat in a bowl on top of the dining room table?

I just can’t resist those baby feet!

We didn’t have the best weather, but the rain let up toward the end of our session and we headed outside for just a few more before B was ready for his nap.

Thank you, M family, for inviting me to your home. It was great to meet you all and have some fun with the B-Man. Your gallery will be ready soon!

Brand new

Just look at how happy and proud these new parents are! You may remember them from late last summer. I love being able to capture new families in their first few days together!

Little S. was a trooper as we moved her around and put her in some unusual situations. Baby in a Basket is always a popular shot:

But we also let her snooze on the beanbag with a space heater nearby. Who wouldn’t want to do that on a chilly fall afternoon?!?

And of course, we had to get some shots of those little piggies.

W. family, thank you so much for the opportunity to document this part of your life. Enjoy your sneak peek!

Overdue

Just to be clear, the title of this post refers to my timeliness (or lack thereof!) in writing it—not the status of the bambino you see in the photos! I got together with K and W a few weeks ago, and we were hoping to get outside for some beautiful fall shots. Alas! It wasn’t meant to be, as the day was rainy and more than a little bit windy!

But we had fun anyway . . . they just happened to have these beautiful flowers, and I think they look great with the color of the wrap.

The silhouette look seems to be a favorite of my maternity clients, and I love it too. Something about the way the light wraps around that beautiful belly just draws the viewer right in.

I really had a great time working with you, K and W. I’m looking forward to meeting your little one in a few months!

Holiday orders

Believe it or not, it’s time to start thinking about the holidays! I have lots of different Christmas and holiday cards ready and waiting for photos from your 2008 session. You can view all of the options in the Holiday Card Catalog. The last page of the catalog includes ordering instructions.

All cards are 5×5 or 5×7, and they come in sets of 24. Flat cards are $38 per set, and folded cards are $48 per set. Envelopes are included too—just address them, add postage, and drop them in the mail!

The deadline for all holiday orders (cards and prints) is

Saturday, November 15.

Order early so you can cross something off your holiday to-do list! And if you’re one of those people who finished shopping in August? I don’t even want to know about it!

Eleven Months

Last Saturday, I made my second visit to Miss E’s house. She sure has grown since I photographed her last December! She’s a little shy, so I had a bit of a tough time getting a smile out of her.

Dad had better luck . . . check out those cute little teeth!

We were lucky to have good weather—she really enjoyed being outside.

One of the best parts of this job is watching little ones grow. Thanks so much, K and J, for inviting me to document the growth of your sweet little girl. Enjoy your sneak peek!
