Accessories!

Even at 9 days old, a girl must have her accessories.

Pearls ...

... monograms ...

... flowers ...

... and most importantly ... her mama ...

Congratulations Bronson Family! Thank you for letting me capture these precious moments! Enjoy your sneak peek!

Rachel

I got to meet Rachel a few weeks ago. Being new to the area, it's fun to explore! We went to the historic area of Baltimore.

Have a great senior year, Rachel!

Beach Studio

After shooting a few different families on and around the beach in Pacific Beach, WA, I wanted to move there. The light was great ... although the weather was a little chilly!

Meet a sweet family of 4!

Mom & Dad


Miss Maddy




We grabbed little Miss Brooke's 2 year old pictures later. I'll post those pictures another time.
Here's the whole family ...


The reflections were so fun!

I cried ...

... while I edited these pictures. I don't miss San Antonio itself in the least, but there are a few families there who I miss more than I can say. I still can't believe they're not just a few miles away anymore. Meet one of those families ...



Santi ... 15 months younger, but 15 pounds heavier than my daughter ...



Catherine ... obsessed with Mary Poppins and therefore umbrellas ...



Sam is deployed to Iraq right now and will be gone for a year. I'm so glad that we were able to get these shots just a few days before he left!







Sam & Elizabeth ...









If you're wondering, they look great in color too!

Prop Insanity

I got to participate in prop pose-a-thon. 30 photographers were given a prop and asked to photograph it creatively. The prop chosen was a pair of Knotty Baby Wear's black and lime baby leg warmers. They would still fit my "baby" girl, but she refuses to put them on her legs. They're much better on her arms or head. So, I took pictures of the kids with the leg warmers tied around their heads. I entered the one of the boy into the contest. You can see all of the entries here. Check out the one of the leg warmers on the dog! The prize is 4 pairs of Knotty Baby Wear leg warmers. Wish me luck!

Baby Levi

I was the second person he ever smiled at.

He has my daughter totally mesmerized.

He is Baby Levi, Little Levi, LL, Mr. L and so on.

He has creamy skin and a rosebud mouth.

He has sweet baby feet.

He has a fabulous a big brother and a fabulous big sister.

He's my nephew!

My MIL

If there has ever been a better mother-in-law, I haven't heard of one. Seriously, she's one amazing lady. I got to take a few shots of her at a Heidelberg Castle in Germany a few days ago. She's looking fabulous as usual, but isn't that red jacket just perfect for her?! Love you MIL!
