Dorene & Tim

Here are 3 reasons why I am so excited to be photographing Dorene and Tim:
1. They love the City and DOGS as much as I do.
2. They prefer to have special moments captured over stiff poses (For example, they wouldn't like a portrait of them sitting cross legged, side by side staring at the camera! - Fun!)
3. I love the way they smile at each other

The Many Faces of Sweetness

Beautiful Pregnancy

Before I ever became pregnant, I used to fantasize about how I would look with a gorgeous, pregnant belly. In the fantasies, I looked like Kim - she is so beautiful when she is pregnant - I am envious of women like her who make it look so good! (I didn't channel Earth Mother Goddess until after Aria was born!) Kim is such a great Mama, I love watching her & Jolie together, it was an honor for me to do my part in capturing moments of their special relationship!

Muddy feet & Ballerina toes!

Willow, the VERY busy Angel Muffin is now 18 months young. I love her fingers and toes in this one. I love sundress and barefeet weather. I love how being a Mommy fills my heart with the wonder of life & love.

I'm Back - Yay!!!

I have been having some serious cabin fever lately and craving GREEN like you wouldn't believe! A sojourn to the Botanical Gardens with the ever gorgeous Willow and Aria & my beloved camera, was just what my spirit needed! Simply breathing the warm, humid air inside felt like heaven. We took off the girls shoes (which is their version of heaven, actually, being naked as jaybirds is their version of heaven but, well, you know...) They had so much fun exploring and SPLASHING IN PUDDLES! (I will never outgrow splashing in puddles and building forts!) I can't wait to let them loose in the children's garden outside this summer...
