Baby Brooke

Shooting this 3.5 month old little lady totally gave me baby fever all over again. Beautiful and sweet-tempered, Brooke was an angel...

Abby

A three year-old with most charming personality: Vivacious, warm, adorably chatty... The "props" were all hers and it made it special because they were so well-used and much loved.

Ms. T

Well, well, well.... If it isn't my terribly neglected blog. I'm waaaayyy behind on editing as I got a little distracted with Texture Pack 4 coming out last week, but I'm starting to make up lost ground.

Meet T. Part jock, part princess, total photo poser and probably destined for a future in advocacy... Adored spending the afternoon with her.

All photos are edited with new textures from the new Texture Pack 4.

Chelsea

This was a such a diverse and amazing session -- Chelsea wanted to take some pictures of some of the important people in her life before she went away to college. Unfortunately, her mom was sick, so we just shot pictures of her with her dad, boyfriend and best friend. Two days later, she was on a plane, off to college.

Thanks, Chelsea. I absolutely loved being your photographer.

L's 3rd Birthday

Today my independent, outgoing, strong-willed, athletic and loving little boy turned three.

I've ruined many a fun day for my kids by bringing my camera, so I decided I would just document. Shot at high noon in 95 degree heat and later, in fluorescent light... Nothing set up, no posing or planning. Here are just some snaps from today.


He came up with this ensemble himself.


Funny face pancakes at IHOP.


Legos & love.


Waiting for the train tickets to come on sale. Not patiently either.


We have *no idea* who the kid in the middle is. He just sort of joined us.


Riding the ponies at Griffith Park...


Imagining the possibilities at ToysRUs...




Ending with a meltdown. Now napping. :-)

On the menu for tonight, his favorite dinner (fish sticks and peas) and a Kit Kat cake (basically a cake I buy at the market and decorate with Kit Kats). Then he gets the cool Toy Story dinosaur (shown above) and a Star Wars gun (yeah, yeah I know, but he's got a 7 year-old brother and he needs his own arsenal to keep up).

Happy Birthday!!
