Expecting "A"

Having Presidents Day as an unexpected day off meant I could sneak in this maternity shoot right at 38 weeks! You wouldn't know it by the look of her though! We had a great shoot despite the dark skies and pouring rain. Thank goodness for those studio lights!
I always love the hands shot...



These two need to be framed together...its like a little story, you can see Big brother's mind racing...so you say I have a sister...in there? Can I hear her?




and yes...he's a child prodigy...check out his spelling abilities (wink!)


And so many more great ones...Looking forward to meeting her!

Newborn S

This little guy was such a good little model. He flew down from Oregon just to get his pictures taken...ok so maybe not *just* to get his pictures taken, but it was really great that while he was visiting grandma he stopped in! I just love how his little chubby arms look so boy-ish! He's a big boy, I think he's already trying to keep up with his 2 big brothers! He is just about 2 months old here, so we were really excited when he fell into a deep sleep and let me snap away!

Expecting Twin Girls

It was a a perfect shoot for a dark rainy day! That didn't stop us from celebrating the impending arrival of these identical twin girls. I can't wait to meet them! Big sister and big brother are quite excited...although I think their big sister is REALLY excited...I'm not sure she knows what she's in for! Here's a sneak peek, hopefully it will brighten these last few weeks before the twins come..."A" is only 31 weeks here...so there is still some growing to do...and I remember how hard those last weeks were! Hang in there A!

The P family

Just before we were hit with all the rain I had the opportunity to meet up with this family at spring lake...We have been hit with the nasty viruses going around (I'm not sure if this is one long crazy virus or more than one with no break!) But I am SOOO tired of being sick or taking care of someone who is sick!

On a brighter note, as I'm editing these I'm thinking...little S looks *just* like her dad....and then I'm thinking then again she looks so much like her mom! ha! I couldn't make up my mind!

Newborn C

Little C made her arrival right over the christmas holiday, so we weren't able to sneak in pictures of her right away, so she is a little older (and she started out a big girl!) She was a trooper for her pictures, content...but not so sleepy! And she certainly didn't want or fit tucked in a basket! We had lots of fun none the less!
I think this first one is going down as one of my all time favorites...


And, I do so love this feet shot...
