simply adorable

Today I'm sharing a few more from adorable F.'s simplicity session, which took place in and just outside the Wayne studio.  Don't you think she is model material? Thank you once again, G. family!

Thinking of a summer session?  Send me a note today--just a few weekend dates remain!

where does the time go?

When I edited the image you see on the lower right this week, I was instantly transported to a session I did with the wonderful M. family in 2008.  As you can see, we are waiting for some very good news and the M. family will soon be a party of five!  What a gift it has been to watch them grow, laugh, and love through the years.  Thank you, M. family!  You are the best!

Loveliest of trees, the cherry now
Is hung with bloom along the bough. --a.e. housman

Who's thrilled that spring is here?  I am, and surely lovely Miss A. is as well!

love

Just a few pages from a recent album . . . some images are from the maternity session--sweet B's last weeks as "the baby"--and some are from the beautiful newborn session.  What an adorable big brother he makes, and could baby M. be sweeter?  He was very alert and focused at just a few days old--a sign of great intelligence, I always say!  At least this is what my husband and I said to console ourselves back when we had a newborn with no interest in sleeping.  :)

Thank you, N. family!  I loved being a part of this special time and I can't wait for you to see your album!

Click through the slideshow to see them all!

Spring has sprung! Could sweet F. be any more adorable? Just one from this morning's session at the studio.

spring is almost here!

Despite this week's cold snap, spring will be here in just a few days.  Are we excited yet??  If you have a spring session with beautiful blooms (can anyone say "cherry blossoms"?) in mind, send me a note today to get on the calendar.  I have one weekend date left in April.

In the meantime, please enjoy another winter 2013 session showcase, this time from the Wayne studio.  Could you ever in your wildest dreams imagine a photo as darling as the third one below, given the ages of these children?  They were amazing!  Thank you, T. family!!  It was so lovely to see you again and watch your family grow!
