Again… these are posted in no particular order except to say they are from last year and waaaaay past due their blog life ~ by I’m goin for it!.  I love them all {and their owners} and wish I had blogged them a loooooong time ago!  But I’ll catch up, besides I have some REALLY fun vacation pics to show off once I’m caught up.  Enjoy!

These girls were a hoot!

Whew!  sheesh, that was only two sessions? ~ ok, more coming tomorrow:)

Hello, I’m still alive! I have been having the best season and it’s coming to a close very soon, but I just couldn’t go one more day without posting some of the fun that I’ve been having.  So sit back, relax, grab a snack, maybe a cocktail and take a peek at what I’ve been so busy with.

Whew! Thanks for hangin’ in there for the mother of all posts. I am sooooo incredibly lucky and fortunate to have met all the lovely babies, children, pets and families that I had the pleasure of working with with season. Thank you all for making my year so wonderful by closing up the season on such a great note. I hope you are all enjoying your holiday cards which I can’t wait for you to send out and I hope to see you all in front of my camera again very soon! Have a great Thanksgiving and I am officially going to promise to be a better blogger. So I am going to rest up and get ready for my big debut as a cook. I am in charge of cooking one of the 2 turkeys for our family’s feast tomorrow and I’m praying that mine doesn’t resemble the Turkey from the movie Christmas Vacation when Clark Griswold begins to carve the beautiful bird just as it bursts open and steam fills the air with the charred remains of the holiday turkey. Lets all keep our fingers crossed!

These cards are very fresh and clean with a bit of contemporary flavor. But wait… there’s one final installment to my epic of holiday cards! Tommorrow’s theme: fun for all ages.

I LOVE these cards, they are totally out of my norm, but they speak to me! I love the rich colors and textures – something different for you risk takers:) Up next… Contemporary

So here it is, my first installment of Holiday cards. A little something funky and fun to get this season started. These cards are designed to be a flat 5×7 with a beautiful pearl finish with the exception of cards D and F, which are 5×7 folded cards. I hope you like them and part 2 will be coming tomorrow so come on back and check em out! I’ll give you a hint: vintage victorian…

Check out this little guy! at only 8 days old he is one of my youngest clients, and I loved every second with him and his new family. As for him, he was loving this blanket that his late great grandmother made for him and I’m sure he will cherish it for many years to come. Such a precious gift, as he is too!

And such a good sleeper too!

There… he finally woke up to give his mama some lovin

Remember this little guy? He was just convinced that he was going to have a baby sister even though the sex of his new sibling was kept a secret.

Well, meet his brand new baby sister “M”. Does he know his stuff or what?

She was so excited for he photo debut, that she just did not feel like going night night! She was so very alert and those cheeks make me want to dust off the old infant car seat and have one more!! Aaaaahhhh! I suppose I am just content to take this little sweetie’s pics for now:)

We can’t forget about big bro “H”! Along with introducing me to his new baby sis, he was eager to show me his new puppy, his new cars, his new trucks, his new stairs, his new basket, his new… Some stuff was old, some new, but all very entertaining! Keep it up “H” you are a super big brother!

How cute is he?

Tushie time.

I think NOT!

More from Baby “M” I just loved this little guy – And the camera? Uhhh… Yeah!!!

I absolutely love this image in color, but there is something about the version below that I find interesting too. I have been playing with some new editing tools. Fun stuff, but with my vast computer skills, they may take me a while to perfect. So this may not be the look that I was going for, but there is something about it that I do love:)

Look at the tiny smile on this handsome baby, Couldn’t you just DIE!!!

He couldn’t possibly be any more gorgeous, you are going to have your hands full with this little man! I can’t wait to get him in front of my camera again. Thanks “S” family:)
