I had a blast shooting one of my best friends Kelley and her little man Sully at my favorite pumpkin patch, the Weston Red Barn Farm.  And although it was in the morning, fall light is so nice. I have to admit, since having little ones of my own again I have a renewed interest in shooting families and especially mommies and babies.  It is so much fun.  I recently did a day in the life with Sully, mommy AND daddy. I was there for 13 hours, before they got out of bed until Sully  crashed.  Be sure and come back to see that soon :) And a rare but really awesome photo Kelley managed to capture of me and the boys. Yes, I’m slowly but surely getting over my fear of the camera. Mostly for the sake of my children. Thank you Kelley! Love ya!

are having a baby, or else Darbi swallowed a basketball!  How cute is she? I think Darbi is the model for what all pregnant women want to look like – no butt spread, no fat face, no swollen feet.  Oh well, a gal can dream. Anyway I am so thrilled to be sharing these photos from Darbi and Neil’s session.  Not only is Darbi a good friend but also a wonderful photographer and it’s always a special honor to shoot for other professionals.  I am also BEYOND thrilled that I will be shooting little baby XXX’s birth in January.  What a great story that will be to share.  Congrats you two.  I cannot wait to meet triple X!

only 6 months after the fact, but here are the pics from our father’s day session.  I was racking my brain trying to figure out what to get the husband for his very first father’s day while driving home from a wedding, yes the night before.  When it hit me…an early morning session in bed with the  babies. A great big thank you to Janelle Vano for doing these so last minute. I hope to do them every year until it gets us on awkward family photos! Come back in July and I might have some Christmas photos up.

with Kelley and Sully.  I thought since I just did my 3rd shoot with these guys I should probably post the first one, Sully at almost 3 mos.  It’s amazing what you can get in good light in about 10 minutes with a cute baby and a mommy who loves him.  Shoots 2 & 3 coming soon.

here is the Solar family at the pumpkin patch.  I know, a lot of photos, but they are just too cute and this is what happens when you turn me loose with a camera and a wonderful family who just lets me do what I do.  Thank you both for letting me shoot your beautiful family and thank you for the photos of our babies birth.  This post makes me want to go hug them.  Love you guys!

for the Solars.  We went to the pumpkin patch and this is one of the only portaits I took.  The rest of the time I just photographed crazy fun, more coming soon!

for Ashley.  We are doing her senior photos in three parts.  I’m so excited.  She is such a beautiful, smart, sweet and talented young lady.  And we are so glad she is our son’s girlfriend.  More coming soon!

for my good friend Kelley (who also happens to be a fabulous photographer!), Sully and daddy Sam.  Since I am getting ready to photograph them for the third time I thought I better start blogging the first two shoots. One little pic from shoot number 2. I dare you not to look at this cuteness!
