WELCOME TO MY BLOG

Come on in. Kick back. Relax. Stay a while.

This blog is dedicated to my adventure in photography. You'll see bits of my adopted hometown, New Orleans, as well as plenty of pictures of my sons, Dylan and Logan, and, of course, the children and families that allow me to capture the special moments in their lives.

I'll be updating the blog frequently, so add me to your blog reader. And if you have a blog yourself, I'd love to be added to your blog roll. Lastly I love comments so if you've particularly enjoyed a post or a photo please let me know!

I lied...

Apparently my last post wasn't really the last thing I had to say today. The last thing I need to say today is....

WAY TO GEAUX SAINTS!!!

One more thing to say today...

GEAUX SAINTS GEAUX!!!

Sneak Peek: "F" Family {New Orleans Family Photographer]

What do you get when you cross fun-loving two year old twins with loving down-to-earth parents and a condo filled with fantastic light?
You get images like these:
Seriously, how CUTE is this? I love that they're both wearing mom's shoes in the picture.
F family - It was a pleasure to meet you all. I hope to see you around here for at least another month or so - and again next year! Enjoy your sneak peek - I'll have the full gallery ready for you very soon.

Sneak Peek: Dora + Shane [ New Orleans Maternity Photographer]

I've been a bad, bad blogger. I'm behind with my sneak peeks. In truth I'm trying to move my blog to a new format and I was hoping to just start posting to the new blog straight away, but I'm having some technical issues so here I'll stay a little longer.

D+S - thanks so much for your patience! And enjoy your peek. The full gallery will be ready very soon.

Sneak Peek: Eli [New Orleans Baby Photographer]

Just look at this sweet little guy! The cooooooold weather drove us inside for Eli's 5-month photo session and I couldn't be happier about it. The family's second bedroom - with a comfy bed and lots of windows - was absolutely perfect for our session!

Sneak Peek: Melyssa + Christy [New Orleans Maternity Photographer]

One of the best parts of my job is capturing happy, excited couples as they await the arrival of a child. And M + C are no exception. Actually happy doesn't begin to cover it. Giddy might be more accurate. And why not? They only have a few more weeks to go before they welcome home their beautiful baby boy. M+C - I hope you enjoy the sneak peek!

i love...

1) that Dylan always says, "I love you too." Even if you didn't say it first. I especially love when he says, "I love you too sweetheart." How cute is that? He makes my heart happy.

2) that if you show Logan a photo with him in it, he points to himself and says, "Baby!" Dylan always calls Logan "Baby" or "the baby" and apparently now Logan has adopted it as well.

3) that Dylan announces the emotional impact of every decision made in our household. No more apple juice today? "That makes Dylan sad." Going to the playground today? "That makes Dylan happy!" And yes, it's always announced in the third person.

4) seeing Logan attempt more and more complex words. And he does so well with them too - "alligator" and "octopus" among them.

5) how every meal - be it breakfast, lunch or dinner - Dylan tells me he wants fish sticks, green peas and dip. (All he really wants is the dip... aka ketchup!)

6) how Logan only wants mommy to pick him up out of his crib in the morning. If Kevin goes in to get him, Logan lies back down and pretends that he's going back to sleep.

7) that Dylan loves to cuddle. Every morning tells me, "I want to sit with mommy." And he does. He just wants to sit on the sofa and cuddle until he's fully awake.

8) that whenever you ask Logan if he's sleepy, he vigorously shakes his head no, even if he can barely keep his eyes open. I ask him several times a day now just for the fun of it. :)

Sneak Peek: Jessica + Jordan [New Orleans Maternity Photographer]

These two are so cute and excited about welcoming their first child. To commemorate this time in their lives we had a wonderful session in the Quarter. I just love all the textures and colors the Quarter has to offer.








And P.S... isn't she gorgeous??? Wow. :)
