Don't you agree that she does beautiful work? I loved every minute of photographing it! It got me even more excited for the upcoming wedding season and capturing the essence of each bride's wedding! :)

Floral Designer . Amanda Whitman

Amanda contacted me to get some current photos of her floral design work for her advertisement on theknot.com and I had a blast shooting these pictures! She is one of those down-to-earth people that you just instantly love the first time you meet them! And her floral design work is simply beautiful. Very Martha Stewartesque.

I only have two shots to put up tonight but I can't wait to show you more of her amazing work. If you're a bride looking for a great floral designer, Amanda is your woman!

Elijah: 3 mo old

This little guy already has this precious little personality that shines and is so easy to see at only 3 months old! I love that. I'm always amazed at how quickly babies change and how much Elijah has grown since I photographed him as a newborn 3 months ago. I'm already looking forward to seeing him again at his 6 month session!




Holding hands and talking with his big sister...

Madison . Class of 2010

I love the feel of this first shot... it's a little underexposed, but I really like it that way, so I left it on purpose.
Hayley did a beautiful job with Madison's hair and make up and Madison was SO easy to photograph. The three of us had a great time and I busted up laughing a couple times.... Madison, you can be so hilarious!

Happy Monday

I'm sure I'm the last person on the planet to see this video, but I wished I could be there dancing right along when I watched it! :)

Sydney

I'm currently working on some photos from baby Elijah's 3 month shoot. Man is he cute! You may remember him from his newborn shoot last January. I'll share his photos soon. I thought I'd post just two shots of his older sister Sydney. She did so good to sit and read her book while I photographed her little brother, but its hard to share the spot light for very long. :) And how could I resist this face?! Adorable! She loves to have her picture taken. And she's one of my favorite people to photograph.

You make me so, very happy, I'm so glad you, came into my life...

In honor of Jude & Selah's birthdays I thought I'd share some things about them that are true to this season of life... especially since I'm pretty bad about keeping baby books, so the internet can help me out here. :)
(I keep photo albums with little notes about life at the time, does that count?)

Jude
. Now a big 3 year old! ...with a little attitude. :)
. But with the sweetest heart. He loves to wrap his arms around me, get nose to nose and say with a smile, "I love you Mommy." {sigh.... melt my heart}
. He loves tents, tea, and his buddy bear.
. He loves to be outside
. He loves trains and stories about trains (notice the train on his shirt)
. He loves to grab a blanket, climb up on the couch and say, "Let's get cozy, TOGETHER" and then he'll request an episode of Thomas the Train with a sparkle in his eye.
. My sweet Jude bug I love you so much! I adore your passion for life, your joyful personality, your clever thinking, your amazing memory, and your sweet spirit.


(Josh was playing with Jude and was tickling him upside down here)




Our friends Kim & Ken gave Jude "sucker balls" for his birthday.


Selah
. Now a big ONE year old!
. She loves to laugh and giggles when I say, "I'm gonna get you!"
. She loves to walk as much as possible (with assistance)
. She's intrigued by everything, and loves to watch and figure things out immediately
. She loves to eat and talk
. She loves to tell me every time she sees Noah our cat by pointing and saying, "Ba-Ba!"
. My sweet Selah girl, I adore you. I love your spunky spirit, your adorably cheesy grin that radiates happiness, your unique squawk, & that you love to be close to your mommy and daddy.





I love this face
