i feel like posting a lot of pictures

Maybe because this baby is such a happy kid, it makes me happy to look at all her pictures. =)











Thanks so much for having me capture your beautiful, happy child! Can't wait to show you the rest!

i shot someone in detroit

no, that's not a confession... it's a photography workshop I've been at the past couple days. So I really should be either sleeping or catching up on some editing or cleaning up the house... but can't help wanting to post about this workshop instead. Had a great time meeting about 30 other photographers in the area, getting together to do tons of "shooting" and learn from each other. I feel like my mind is reeling with different conversations and things I absorbed from being around other photographers... and maybe it'll lead to some revamping of things around here. =) But before I start thinking of all that, should really get on that editing and/or cleaning...

In the meantime, here are some of the boys...



triplets!



Hannah came along also to model, and she totally became attached to this sweetheart, following him wherever he went. hmmm...





Thanks Amy, Chris & Michelle for all you put into it!!

Baba

Happy Father's Day to all you loving dads out there!

I love photographing dads with their kids, because no matter how much of a "guy" any dad is, they totally melt and soften when they're with their little ones. And the tenderness and love captured is so real and natural.

But this post is especially for this dad, who is the best "baba" Hannah could have.

all smiles

Meet Brady. He is by far the most smiley newborn I've ever met.



Will have to wait until the announcements go out before posting more. =)

Congratulations you guys. Can't wait to show you the rest.

Saw this spot yesterday. Looking at this photo just makes me wish I could be in and stay in that quiet spot all day.

vote for hannah... please?

Haha. I randomly came upon this contest, and submitted a quick snapshot just for fun... and I just checked and my entry got picked! So if you're reading this on or before June 4th, will you cast a quick vote for Hannah? =b I guess you can vote for other kids instead, but thought I'd put in the shameless plug for her. =)

putting a smile on my face

In the midst of editing this recent session, and the images we got of these two sweethearts are totally making me smile -- and even laugh out loud at times. It makes me think the work I do is good for my soul.

Erin just turned one (can't believe how fast time has gone!). Mom was out of the room when we shot these, so these are a surprise for her:



And here is big brother Colin, working the camera. =)



Can't wait to share the rest with this family!
