new website and new blog home!

After months of work (and procrastination), I've made the move! My blog now lives on my host server along with the main webpage. This will be my last post here on blogger. Please update your links/bookmarks/readers to point to:

The main website has gotten a face lift: updated galleries, new pricing, new print and session package!



Check it out and let me know what you think!

See you there!

One year anniversary!

A year ago today, I did my first "official" session! It's been a great journey, and I can't wait for the upcoming year. I have met wonderful people, the cutest kids and the most precious babies! Big changes are coming soon, including my first blog contest, so stay tuned! If you are thinking about holiday photo session, please book soon (only 3 session days are open). I will be accepting holiday sessions until the first week of November. Orders should be in by November 20 to ensure delivery by Christmas.

Here's some fall "pixie hay" to brighten your day :)

blue-eyed twins

I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing the most adorable 8 month old twins this week. Their faces were full of expressions, and they were both fascinated by all the little things around them - especially the grass :) I miss my babies' chubby cheeks, so I live vicariously through my clients.

Mom & Dad - Enjoy the sneak peek, and have a great beach vacation!















Aren't they the cutest!?!!

Meet baby M

I had a great session with adorable baby M. She was soooo good and pretty much slept through the entire session...she just made my job easy :) I had a very hard time picking the images for the sneak peek. I love them all!

Mom & dad - I hope you love them too...and get some sleep soon!



I just love tiny details, like hands and ears...


Grandpa will be proud of this, his beaver fur gift displayed (it's the softest thing ever)...


OK, so I lied, she did wake up for a few minutes, and showed me her pretty eyes...


...and back to sleep she went...


I love the double chin...


all bundled up...


in daddy's hands...


sweet times...

adorable twin girls

I had a great session with 2-year old twin girls. They were so much fun and, despite just flying in from CA, and dealing with a 6-hour car ride, they were full of energy :) We played dress-up in tutus, watered the tomatoes, and ran around the backyard, on a hot sunny day. Weekends don't get any better than that :) Check out their gorgeous eyes!

Here's your way-over-due-sneak-peek (Sorry, Subha). I hope you like them ;)

happy mommy to be

My friend, R, asked me to capture her growing belly. I am so excited for her and her husband. They'll both be great parents, and I can't wait to meet their little bundle of joy. What's the count down to now? 20 days!?!! Oh, and I just love the traditional Saree - so gorgeous!

R & K - Here's your sneak peek. I hope you like them:

coming soon...

Coming soon...lots of changes! I have been working on re-doing all my galleries on the website, moving this blog to my domain, and re-vamping everything. I will be adding some packages soon - since everyone seems to ask for them :) It's been taking many more hours than I anticipated, but I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel!

With the updates there will be a price increase coming up, so if you are planning to book a session, hurry and book now to take advantage of the current prices!

Fall mini sessions and a contest are in the works. I will announce more on that when I officially "launch" my new blog, so stay tuned!

On a personal note, my baby will start preschool next week. Sigh. Time has just flown by!

singing baby

I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing C & G this past weekend. What a sweet & beautiful couple. They're expecting their first child any minute now - and I can't wait to meet him/her. Dad has been playing his assortment of instruments and singing to the baby for so long, Mom won't be surprised if the baby comes out singing :)

C & G - Here's your sneak peek...I hope you love those as much as I do!

it's all in the details

Rayna did a beautiful job organizing and planning her parents' 30th wedding anniversary. If you ever need someone who is on top of things, detail oriented and resourceful - go to her!

Here are a few detail shots:

The more the merrier!

I had the pleasure of photographing a family of twelve. When there are kids involved, especially when they are all under 6, anything can happen. There was love, there was chaos, there was beauty, there were a few butterflies caught, and best of all there was happiness! Thanks for letting me capture your family...all three generations :)

Here's your sneak peek:
