spring is here!

this beautiful family contains one of my original "muses": the adorable river.  since i first photographed her a year and a half ago, she has grown into quite the young lady...and now has a sister who's going to give her a run for her money!  we met in a park in langley and despite some of our party getting lost in the forest, it was a lovely time and once again...there are so many fun images!

these nature loving people can even get birds to land on their hands.  wild birds, people!!

abandoned house + beautiful woman + sunset light + funkadelic wallpaper = thank you lord.  such a fun shoot...too many favorites to choose, so get ready for lots of pictures.  love you guys!

both

the question that plagues my mind daily as 1:30 rolls around is coffee or nap?  these days there's a third option...both.  yes, both.  it's that bad, folks.

a twisted stitch

when i became an auntie, my obsession with kids clothes reached new heights.  you can only imagine what becoming a mother did to me.  so when i first saw christa's hats, i went (lady) gaga over them.  you can then understand my delight when i had the privilege of photographing her wares (http://www.etsy.com/shop/ATwistedStitch) using both our kids as models this past week.  enjoy the finished product...and go buy her stuff!

as you can see, her children were much more willing models than mine...

head to toe

here's a brilliant birth announcement which was created by patty dueck of occasional designs using my pictures from baby brooke's photo session.  visit her blog at www.o-designs.blogspot.com if you're interested in having her create a card for you!
