Bella Brooke....

So this is Brooke... and I think she's fabulous!  I love every one of these pictures of her for different reasons!!!  Mostly, because she's a buddy of mine and I just think she just looks gorgeous as a pregnant mama... but I just love the way she rocked it for the camera!!!  Love love LOVE the way the light just sort of intersected softly on her face in the one in the corner... of course, love the mural shots, and I love the tight shot of her showing the belly in the orchard... it's a completely Brooke "face" and I just think you are BEAUTIFUL BROOKE!!  Love you girl... can't wait to meet your little lady!

(Yes... it's the mural again... but bear with me as I scope it out and get used to shooting there!!  Seriously, how beautiful is it though?  We need more random works of art gracing our streets!)

Awaiting Gianna...

Lori & Carl were quite the lively two!  This was a fun session... complete with cranky valet parker guy who almost ran us over, and even worse, almost ran over my camera bag!!!?  Little Gianna is due Christmas Eve and I do hope that somehow she does come on her due date... what a lovely Christmas present that would be?!  :)  I got to see her nursery... it's beautiful in shades of lavendar and gets some great light in the afternoon.  I can't wait to come back and photograph her in her girly bedroom!  I'll be waiting to hear the good news guys!

Introducing... Beatrix Sparrow!

This sweet angel belongs to my dear friend Lydia!  She is 3 weeks old in these images, and makes me want to have another baby!!!  I love her delicate little features and think she looks like Mommy so far!  Big brother Micah was so good with her... I fell in love with the two images of the two of them together... he has the greatest little expressions!  Matt... hope you like the tattoo pic!!  Love you guys to pieces!  Beatrix.... Elise is waiting for her new playmate!!  :)

The Robinson Fam

At this point, the Robinson's are tied for the "Most Frequent Client" Award!  They are a lovely, polished crew with little Miss Gracie as the star of the show.  I met them at their beautiful home and immediately went trolling for a fun piece of furniture we could lug down to the beach.  I chose a lovely chair from their striking living room (all blues, whites, and island wood) and Joe so graciously carried it onto the beach!  Gracie thought it was pretty fun!!  I especially love the picture of Yasmeen, their oldest daughter.  Her eyes are unbelievable!  Having worked with Joe and Tandy several times before... I also really love the image of the two of them... very natural expressions and they just look like they were having fun!  Enjoy these guys.. more to come!

Miss Madelaine...

Oooh, was I so excited when I took one look at Madelaine's beautiful baby blues this morning!!  As you can see, they are exceptional... as was she!  She's about 6 months old and working on sitting up, and we got ONE picture to prove it!!  I'll tell you, she's on the move... this little one!  She isn't quite crawling, but scooting and very strong!  Her mommy and I were agreeing that once she starts crawling... it's alllll over!  She'll be hard to catch up with!  Madelaine's and her mom are visiting from up north for a few months... enjoy the sunshine and pleasant weather girls!  I'll be in touch soon!
