where is the pot of gold?

oh how i wished i had my good camera with me

on saturday!! luckily i was able to snap a

pic with my camera phone...when i got home

my neighbor & her daughter were walking

in the rain, they had walked to try to find

the end of the rainbow. i guess we're all just lookin'

for that pot of gold!

surprise favorites

so as i'm sure every photographer does, i have a specific way i go about editing. when i am done with a session i have to look through it immediately. i mark all my initial 'favorites' & do some basic deleting (eyes shut, etc). then i generally wait a day or two before i look at them again. in this case it's been almost a week since i've seen these images. which is unheard of for me, but i am behind! always when i go back that second time, i come across images i LOVE. & i think to myself, 'how did i miss this the first time?' i love those surprises. this is one of them.

my viv is 5 months today :-)

Phone blogging

ok, so this could be dangerous...i'm blogging from my phone! i'm probably a little behind the times realizing i can do this, but better late than never :-) this is one of my fave phone pics of vivi...it is from one of the first times i was able to hold her. bless her little heart, she was a little beat up. she had a hard time getting here!

alec is 1!

alec is the baby of the family with 2 big brothers, david & dawson. i photographed both of them for their 1 year photos & a few weeks ago it was alec's turn! isn't he beautiful? he was such a happy boy & such a joy to shoot.

sydney jean

what a sugar plum! she was soooo sweet. awake & alert the whole shoot.
totally oblivious to the costume changes. miss sydney is already a totally
fashionable girl, i have no doubt there will be lots of costume changes in her future ;-)
her big brother was so cute and excited about baby sis. he was especially proud of
their 'big brother/little sister' shirts.

happy birthday mabel & james

they are the big #3! and FUNNY FUNNY. their birthday
party was today & the theme was princess & dinosaurs.
and let me tell ya, it was a princess & dinosaur free for
all! the whole time i was taking these pictures, mabel
wanted to kiss james & he was just rolled with the
punches. i think mabel is probably the boss of both of
her brothers...at least she thinks she is!
