Baby S

I love new babies.  This beauty was 11 days old when we met.  Here is a little sneak peek mom.

Patience

Thanks Johnson family for being patient with me!  I had to bring my 3 children to this shoot and the Johnsons were great about it.  Despite the chaos that the Hester children bring with them wherever they go! The daddy is an AMAZING teacher that taught my William how to swim this summer.  He is so good with kids and Will and Ava had a ball swimming with him.  So thank you.  And thank you to my customers that are waiting for proofs.  I am a little behind this week, but should have everything out in the next few days.  So again, thank you for your PATIENCE.

If you are wondering where I have been….

it has been sitting behind this computer.  Right this minute, I am typing this in my monkey pjs, watching a week’s worth of Tivo’d Young and the Restless and trying to catch up.  Two weekends ago, I did a fundraiser for an amazing organization called Mothers Support Network.  When we moved here a year and a half ago, we did not know a soul and MSN really was a place that I could go to meet moms like me and get the support that I needed.  This year I photographed 26 families in 2 days.  Whew…. here are a few highlights.  (I randomly pulled folders, no hurt feeling please :) )

Nice to meet you…

Nicole and family. I had the pleasure of making a new friend today and taking some family photos for this adorable family. Nicole is also a photographer and we are swapping sessions for our Christmas cards. It was so nice to meet you all today. I hope that you enjoy your pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them. Here is a little peek… For the rest of you, please check out Nicole’s beautiful work. I cannot wait to have her shoot us. www.nicolefieldsphotography.com

My baby can WRITE HIS NAME!!!

I was going through Will’s backpack (which is larger than him :) ) and I saw this paper and could read what he wrote!!  His name!  Maybe the other mom’s that read this will understand why I was so touched by this.  He is growing up so quickly….

… and for good measure Clay in the kitchen sink.

Yes, I do have other children…

but Clay seems to be the only willing participant these days.

It was already set up…

and I could not resist. I was doing an all day session today at MSN (www.motherssupportnetwork.com) and Wes and the littles came to pick me up. The lights were all set up, so I could not resist taking a picture of one of mine. I say one, because the others were not so cooperative.

open your door and give me some candy

yes, my incredibly polite 4 year old actually said that during trick-or-treating. Makes a mommy proud.

Ava was a ballerina/princess concoction and Will is a Tera-dact-Will and Clay is a Clay-a-saur-us Rex.

Happy Halloween.

wanna know how to make a cute shot terrible?

don’t pay attention the what is going on in the background. It really can make or break a great shot. I could go back and take out the pack and play in Photoshop, but who has the time?

But how adorable is my sitter?

The Nelsons…

You know you are old when instead of lining up shots at the bar with your friends like you used to do, you are now getting shots of them with their wife and 3 year old. And using giant lollipops as brides to get them :)  Meet the Nelson family.  This gorgeous and very sweet little girl is the daughter of some of my oldest and dearest friends.  I had the pleasure of meeting up with them on my trip to NJ and we had a great morning shooting in Ocean City.  It was wonderful to see you and we should do it more often… wanna come to CA?
